Avoiding Office Politics

-

I found a great, short article written on how to avoid the “office politics” from Leading Today. In Avoiding Office Politics:How to advance your career without bullying or boot-licking", the author, Jeff Mowatt, discusses how a lot of the time it is not the “external customers” that make the job the stressful, it’s really the “internal customers” that do. These “internal customers” include co-workers, subordinates, and supervisors. It is the “internal customers” and the “office politics” that make the job not as enjoyable. This is a great piece to read “if you’re not into playing politics, if you don’t want to suck-up to supervisors, if you don’t want to step on others to climb the ladder, here are a few questions and answers they won’t tell you in the company manual”.

Fats and carbohydrates are the two major fuel sources during exercise. Fats must be translocated and broken down from their storage form before they are used. Typically there is enough carbohydrate stored as muscle glycogen for exercise but as muscle glycogen stores decline, the skeletal muscle will then use some amino acids (basic components of all protein). More specifically, the amino acid leucine is used for energy.              It is important to consume an adequate amount of carbohydrates exercise to delay fatigue and minimize gastrointestinal distress. It is also important to consume enough fluids to prevent hypohydration. Now, lets talk about pre-exercise me
