Anshul Khetarpal is a biotechnical company Vice President who believes that when it comes to staying in shape, the watchwords are: use it or lose it.

As he knows, muscle mass naturally diminishes with age, so it’s important to do something to replace the lean muscle that you lose. If you don’t, you’re likely to end up with more fat in your body, according to physical medicine specialists. A great way to work on replacing that lean muscle is through lifting weights – strength training, as it is popularly known.

Strength training is a great way to not only develop new muscle, but to strengthen bones. By stressing your bones through lifting weights you can actually increase bone density, which will reduce the risk of developing osteoporosis.

As you get new muscle your body will begin to burn calories more efficiently. So the more toned your muscles are, the easier it will be to control your weight. You won’t get so tired as easily, either.

Perhaps best of all, some research indicates that regular strength training can help you gain mental acuity, especially in older adults.

Before you begin any strength training regimen, you are advised to check with your doctor to make sure you are in good enough shape. It doesn’t matter how old you are. Once your doctor signs off on a strength training program, be sure to get the input of a trainer or an experienced lifter before you proceed.

Anshul Khetarpal is a first generation American citizen who didn’t learn to speak English until he was eight years old. That never slowed him down scholastically, however; he shot through school earning excellent grades, and today holds degrees and certifications from San Diego State University, UCLA, and the University of Maryland. Today he makes his home in Redding CA.

His friends and colleagues know him as a man of considerable intellect, and his interests are many and varied. One of the subjects he reads most deeply in is history, a topic so vast that he knows there is enough to keep him reading for the rest of his life.

There is an old saying that those who do not study the past are condemned to repeat it, and that is enough, in and of itself, to justify the study of history. For many people, reading is strongly associated with their memories of school, and the anxieties that came with it. And that is enough, unfortunately, to keep them from reading independently later in life, when they no longer have to. But reading can be an aesthetic experience as pleasing as going to a movie or listening to live music.

But more to the point, an understanding of the past is crucial to promoting an understanding of the present. Everyone is entitled to pontificate about world affairs, and many people don’t hesitate to do so, but it is not unreasonable to think that they have a basic knowledge of what they are talking about or what they are voting about.

Anshul Khetarpal is a first-generation American who lives in Redding CA, and first learned English at the age of eight. Once he did, he raced through the educational system, eventually earning degrees and certifications from San Diego State University, UCLA, and the University of Maryland. He is a well-known intellectual in many circles.

He has wide-ranging interests, including the State of Jefferson movement, which proposes that parts of Northern California and southern Oregon secede from their respective states to form a new State
The idea for Jefferson State goes all the way back to 1852, and a bill that was introduced in California’s State Legislature. That bill died in committee and the idea stalled. But it began to gain new momentum many years later, when in 1941 several counties in California and Oregon decided that they were not being fairly represented by their state governments. These mostly rural regions depend on lumber, fishing, and other harvesting businesses. Supporters of the breakaway plan believed that by doing so they could better control their own destinies.

At that time there were still just forty-eight states in the USA, and the idea of creating a 49th had some appeal in the region and the Board of Supervisors in Siskiyou County began to seriously explore the idea. After a lot of discussion and consideration the name of “Jefferson” was chosen as the new state name. But just as it began to seem it might really happen, the United States was drawn into World War II, and the matter was shelved. It has never been entirely forgotten, however, and is revived from time to time.

He is a longtime supporter of many worthy causes, ranging from Arts organizations to those that help the less fortunate in society. One cause that he feels very strongly about is supporting the victims of domestic violence. He understands that this is a distinctive type of violence and a complex social issue, because it involves an intimate relationship between the victim and the abuser. Historically, cases of domestic violence have been beyond the reach of the law, and is complicated by the fact that the victim is often financially dependent on the perpetrator.

Fortunately this is changing, although there is still a long way to go. The victims of domestic violence are, by far, usually women and children. According to the Centers for Disease Control, between one and five million women in the United States become victims of nonfatal violence at the hands of an intimate partner. Domestic violence cuts across all lines: economic, social, racial, religious, and age group. And while men are sometimes its victims, women are far more vulnerable. By one study women are five to eight times more likely than are men to be the victims of domestic violence. The United States Department of Justice reports that between 1998 and 2002, eighty-six percent of victims of domestic violence were female.

Anshul Khetarpal knows that he cannot single-handedly right this wrong, but he is committed to doing everything in his power to support victims of domestic violence, in Redding CA and elsewhere.

Here are what marathon trainers call the four basic pillars of marathon training:

• Base Mileage. This is the minimum amount of miles you should be running up to a year before the gun goes off at your marathon event. Most marathoners try for 20 to 30 miles per week to start, and go up to 50 four months before the race. You can achieve this base mileage by running three to five times per week. These runs should be at a relatively easy pace. You should be able to carry on a conversation while you’re completing these runs. When increasing your mileage every week, never do so by more than ten percent.

• The Long Run. Once you have a good base mileage, you can start to pepper in some long runs. You’ll want to do one long run every seven to ten days, this will help you avoid injury while building stamina and teaching your body to burn fat for fuel. Extend your mileage by one or two miles each week, but don’t overextend yourself. Scale back your long run mileage every three weeks to prevent burnout.

• Speed Work. Increase the pace of some of your runs and shorten the distance. Run one mile at a fast pace, rest and repeat.

• Rest and Recovery. Let your muscles recover from your rigorous running routine a few days a week. You should also taper your running schedule off as the marathon date approaches.

Anshul Khetarpal frequently runs marathons for various charitable causes in Redding, CA.

Training for a marathon takes more than dedication; it takes uncommon skill and a consistent approach to running day in, day out. Whatever your reason for running marathons, the health benefits, the competition, or for a charity, hold on to that reason throughout your training, because it will get you through the tough runs—when the weather is nasty and your legs are tired. Getting out the door on a consistent basis is the first challenge. Use your motivation anyway you can to get running and stay running to get up to marathon form.

First, you’ll need to build you base mileage. Increase your mileage gradually. Most marathon training programs are 12 to 20 weeks. In order to build this mileage, you will need to run three to five times a week. This will get your body used to running long distances. The most common way that marathon runners injure themselves while training is by ramping up their distances too much too soon. Take your time and let your body mold itself to take on this great strain you’re putting on it. When you’re ready, try some shorter races—5ks, 10ks, or half-marathons are great ways to put your training and preparation to the test. Eventually, ramp up your distances every now and them to marathon levels.

Ben Swann has a long track record of journalistic excellence. He used his extensive experience to found one of the leaders in uninfluenced, reliable news outlets still not under the control of the mainstream media. Swann earned a Master’s degree in history at age 16. He earned numerous Emmy’s and Edward R. Murrow awards for his work as a local television anchor in Cincinnati. One day, in early 2013, however, he decided to leave the mainstream media pipeline and do his own investigative work. In June of 2013, he founded Benswann.com and went to work producing the news series Truth in Media.

Together with his team of award-winning journalists such as Sam Eaton, Ron Noyes, and Zak Carter, Swann produced a series of hard-hitting, investigative news pieces that went beyond what the mainstream media wanted to cover. Since then, Swann has expanded his team, produced more in-depth interviews and features, and started producing news reports on his website, now called truthinmedia.com. The website has links to breaking news from around the world, as well as videos and season two of the Truth in Media Project. Swann’s website now attracts over a million pageviews a month, and more people are waking up to the true issues that affect them.

Anshul Khetarpal of Redding, CA contributed to the original Ben Swann project, the first season of the Truth in the Media Project. He continues to give whenever he can to Swann and his team of journalists because he wants news outlets like Swann’s to thrive in the era of increased mainstream media consolidation.
