Famous Athletes, High Powered Business Men share tips on beating stress!
The Fighter Jet Test Pilot
Captain Doug Henry, U.S. Navy (Ret.)
"I tested the avionics and handling of Navy fighter jets. There were different levels of risk. Sometimes the control room looked like a space-shuttle launch, but for vanilla missions, it would just be a guy in a chair with a radio. One way of handling the pressure is compartmentalization. If there are problems at home, you put that in another space in your mind. You also need to be brutally honest with yourself. Flying demos at air shows, I couldn't worry about the spectators waiting to see me perform. If you or the plane are not ready to execute, you can't let the desire to entertain make you do something foolish. There's only one guy in the cockpit, so you get all the blame."
The takeaway: Be smart, be ready, but above all, be honest about it when you're not.
THE SURFER
Kelly Slater, seven-time world champion"I don't dwell on it. I don't think about it in a way that stresses me out. When I'm competing, I just try to recognize the other guy's po-tential. Then I look at the waves and try to find possibilities. You have to keep in mind that pressure affects everyone in the competition. If I'm feeling it, so is he. I guess I react to pressure by taking it one step at a time. It's like when you're in the middle of a bad wipeout, you just start counting and you come up eventually."
The takeaway: Stress is only a setback if you let it affect you more than the next guy.
THE NFL REFEREE
Gerry Austin, ref since 1982
"Most NFL officials are naturally pretty even tempered. An official has to be able to stay focused, even if he blows a call. After the preparation I do with my crew, I know there's no situation we can't handle. When I walk on the field, there's no place in the world I'd rather be."
The takeaway: Keep your chin up, even when the entire stadium is against you.
THE VEGAS PRO
Rich Baccelari, odds setter, Palms Casino race and sports book
"We get crazy on Sunday mornings during football season. But we lessen the pressure a few ways. First, we do our homework. We're very prepared. Oddsmakers have access to the same information and come up with the same number for a game. The house advantage also has a way of taking the pressure off. The gamblers have to hit almost 53 percent of their bets to win."
The takeaway: Use whatever advantage you have to win, but don't let that stand in for proper preparation.
THE PRO GOLFER
Sergio Garcia, top-10 PGA tour professional
"Even the best players miss crucial shots, so we have to simply trust ourselves and our abilities. I don't let others influence my goals. I do expect a lot from myself, and I think that's good. If I've met my own expectations, I'll be pleased with my career."
The takeaway: Don't let small missteps divert focus from larger goals.
THE BROKER
Nick Weiss, stockbroker
"Back in 1998, I was in the Intel pit during the Russian debt crisis. I had lost 30 percent of my yearly gross, and as the market went down, I kept losing more. You know what I did? I found the closest garbage can in case I had to puke. But it wasn't needed; I ended up making money."
The takeaway: Never let 'em see you puke.
THE WAR CORRESPONDENT
Josh Davis, reporter and author of The Underdog
"When I returned from Iraq, I felt invincible. I wanted to find more stressful situations so I could extricate myself and feel great again. So at 129 pounds I became the lightest man ever to enter the U.S. Sumo Open. Then I became a matador in Spain, an internationally ranked arm wrestler in Poland, and a competitive backward runner in Italy. I deal with pressure by focusing on how nice it'll feel when it's over. It makes all the unpleasantness worthwhile."
The takeaway: Familiarize yourself with stress in one walk of life and defusing the pressure in others becomes easier.
THE FOUR-STAR CHEF
Riad Nasr, co–executive chef, Balthazar, New York
"Time is the main pressure of my job. Yesterday we did 280 breakfasts, 376 lunches, and 450 dinners. And that was just a Monday. What makes it all work is I really care about my crew. I'll admit I'm a bit of a screamer in the kitchen, but when I go off on someone publicly, I make sure that I also reconcile with him publicly."
The takeaway: Let off steam if you need to, but make sure no one gets burned.
THE ON-AIR ANNOUNCER
Mike Tirico, ESPN play-by-play announcer, Monday Night Football
"With millions of people watching, I have to pick the right bit of information at the right time while describing the play, taking direction, and listening to statisticians and spotters. I never know which statistics or anecdotes will suddenly become relevant, but I do know where to find them and how to adapt on a minute-to-minute basis. A big stress reliever for me is the opportunity to perform under pressure. The bigger the audience, the more fun I have. Doesn't everyone want to do his best work at the biggest moments?"
The takeaway: Thrive on those spotlight moments--you're lucky they're yours.
THE RALLY-CAR DRIVER
Ken Block, rally-car driver
"It's damn scary going through a tight corner on an unfamiliar gravel road at 100 mph. You have to push past what your mind considers a 'comfortable speed.' I just put it out of my mind because if I can't, I won't drive at my full potential."
The takeaway: Focus on the track, not the cliff.
THE FILMMAKER
Bo Zenga, filmmaker
"Hollywood studio execs live in a climate of fear. No one wants to put his name on a loser. Even if you've sold winners before, you're at square one every time you walk into a new person's office. So I only pitch projects I really love. When I walk in, I try to exude an unspoken feeling of 'If you don't buy this, your boss is going to want to know why.'"
The takeaway: Confidence is armor against rejection.
THE RECORD EXECUTIVE
Kevin Weaver, senior VP of A&R and strategic marketing, Atlantic Records Group
"Things move very rapidly in this business, and I frequently have only hours to close very important deals. I also do tons of negotiating to manage the ever-changing demands of our artists. How do I cope? Well, for one thing, I work out a lot. But mostly I just try to remember that there's always going to be pressure. You just have to suck it up. Accept the unavoidable and you won't feel out of control."
The takeaway: Treat pressure as a task to tackle, not a crisis.
THE DEEP-SEA EXPLORER
Jean-Michel Cousteau, host of the PBS series Jean-Michel Cousteau: Ocean Adventures
"Pressure in my line of work has another meaning. We explore depths of more than 250 feet, where the pressure is roughly eight times sea level. Down there, the sounds of your heartbeat and your breath are amplified to surreal proportions. How do I handle pressure under all its guises? Oddly enough, by diving. Exploring, for me, is highly rejuvenating."
The takeaway: Don't let yourself get caught up in the pressure. Remember what you enjoy about the job.
THE NASCAR PIT REPORTER
Allen Bestwick, NASCAR pit reporter
"Mine is the ultimate 'walk and chew gum' job, except that I'm chewing about 20 individual pieces of gum. I track 10 racing teams while speaking to two producers and listening to the broadcast to ensure that my reports enhance the big picture. There are no second chances. If I say something dumb, it's out there, and there's no do-over. The best way to deal with the pressure is to relax and have fun. I go out early among the pit crews to exchange jokes or talk football--anything to loosen up before showtime."
The takeaway: Remember, you're seldom stuck in it alone. It's easier to laugh away stress if there's someone to provide a punch line.

76 Health tips you can do for your body!
KNOW THYSELF
Know your body composition.
A study published in the International Journal of Obesity found that 25 to 30 percent of young women with a normal BMI (19 to 25) still carry excessive body fat. The easiest way to check your body composition is with bioelectric impedance analysis, available in many gyms and doctors’ offices.
Know your family’s health history.
Quiz the hell out of relatives, then download everything you learn to your M.D. Need help coming up with a list of questions? The U.S. Surgeon General’s Family Health Portrait (www.familyhistory.hhs.gov) offers easy instructions.
Know your cancer risk.
The American Cancer Society’s Great American Health Check (www.cancer.org/ greatamericans) asks a few questions about your personal and family health history and then generates a list of recommended screening tests, plus tips on how to reduce your health risks. (We were told to nix the second margarita at
happy hour and cut out the Cadburys.)
Know your cholesterol levels.
A survey by the Society for Women’s Health Research revealed that less than a third of American women know their numbers. Get your cholesterol checked We called more than 70 top authorities on health and wellness, and asked each of them the same question: What are the most important things a woman
can do to stay healthy? After weeks of taking notes and poring over research, we’re passing the information on to you: a list of the 76 smartest tips, from the tried and true to the brand spanking new. Your strategy: Pick five this week. Implement. Next week, five more. The week after that—well, you get the idea.
every five years, starting at age 20. You’re in the clear if your total number is under 200 mg/dL, with an LDL (that’s the bad kind) of less than 100 mg/dL and an HDL (that’s the good kind) of 50
mg/DL or more.
Know your resting heart rate.
The lower the number, the less your heart has to work (and that’s a good thing). Take your pulse in the morning, when you’re most relaxed. Measure the number of beats in 10 seconds, then multiply by six. Your number should be between 60 and 80--even lower if you’re athletic.
Know your waist-to-hip ratio.
The best test for predicting heart attacks may be the proportion of your waist to your hips. Measure your waist at the smallest point, then measure your hips at the widest point. Divide the first number by the second number: an ideal ratio is 0.8 or lower.
EAT THESE FOODS. EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.
Broccoli sprouts.
Turns out broccoli sprouts contain up to 50 times the amount of cancer-fighting compounds found in mature broccoli heads.
Canola and olive oil.
Stop sidling up to the bar: Replace the butter and margarine in your stir-fries with vegetable oils. The omega-3 fatty acids and unsaturated fats may help slash cholesterol levels as well as your risk for, heart disease.
Low-fat milk and cheese.
Your body absorbs calcium most effectively from food, not from chocolate-flavored supplement chews. Along with vitamin D, absorbing 1,500 to 2,000 milligrams of the moo mineral daily (a cup of milk has about 300 milligrams) will significantly reduce your risk of joining the osteoporosis club.
Fermented foods like sauerkraut, miso, and yogurt.
Studies show they may reduce breast cancer risk, protect against yeast infections, and boost immunity.
Cinnamon.
Become a spice girl: This antioxidant-rich seasoning slows down the rate at which your stomach unloads
that enchilada lunch, which prevents blood sugar spikes and crashes. In fact, studies show that a half-teaspoon a day lowers blood sugar and cholesterol in people with type 2 diabetes.
OJ.
A six-ounce glass of 100 percent juice (that means no added sugar) every day reduces your risk of stroke by up to 20 percent. Bonus points for gulping the kind with fiber-rich pulp.
Nuts.
Popping a handful daily has been shown to lower heart disease risk by 35 percent.
Tea.
Green, black, and white are all teeming with antioxidants. However, green tea is uniquely high in a chemical
called EGCG, one of the most potent anticancer
compounds ever found. Steep any color for at least three minutes and squeeze the bag at the end for an extra
antioxidant punch.
Hot cocoa.
You can improve your ticker’s health with an eight-ounce cup of hot chocolate as much as you can with a glass of merlot--minus the hangover. Go healthy with 100 percent unsweetened and non-alkalized cocoa
powder (like Hershey’s Cocoa) and fat free milk.
Berries.
Scientists in Finland found that eating five ounces a day offers a healthy-heart triple play by reducing the
risk for cardiovascular disease, improving levels of good cholesterol, and lowering blood pressure.
