Resolve to take it slow and steady LAURA MARENTIC newsroom@wcfcourier.com
Eve r y Ja n u a r y, m i l lions of people make New Year’s resolutions about eating less and exercising more, but only a fraction of them will successfully lose weight and keep it off. Here are a few tips to help you get started and keep going. Make small changes. It’s hard for some people to take things slow. They won’t start their weight loss program until they have everything perfect. Everything has to be planned out, and their exercise routine is charted a few weeks in advance. Instead of overwhelming yourself with a bunch of changes at once, try to make a couple of small changes at a time until they become habit, and then gradually add another each week. In time, these new habits add up. Weight loss is much easier when you’re able to conquer one small goal at a time. Expect a reasonable weight loss pace. If you don’t lose 10 pounds at first, you are not a failure. The standard advice is to lose 1 to 2 pounds per week, but a better measure is between a half a percent to 1 percent of your body mass per week. Your goal is to not just lose weight, but to lose a sensible body fat percentage. Very rarely does someone lose more than 2 pounds of fat per week without sacrificing lean body mass. There’s no point in losing 20 pounds if 10 pounds of that is muscle. Don’t be afraid to eat. We go from overeating to practically under-eating overnight when trying to lose weight, believing that the less we eat the faster we’ll lose weight. This couldn’t be more wrong. Your metabolism adjusts and slows down when you starve yourself and in the long run makes it difficult to lose weight. To keep your metabolism from crashing, focus on five to six smaller meals throughout the day. Don’t diet. Remove the word “diet” from your vocabulary. When changi n g yo u r ways i n t h e kitchen, you are making a lifestyle change. Diets are designed with an end date and rarely do they succeed at long-term weight loss. Typically, diets result in rapid, short-term weight loss followed by a reversion to old eating habits, and the pounds come right back. Think long term. Once you start, understand there is no finish line. You will need to maintain your new, good habits for the rest of your life. Those habits should not stop once you reach your weight loss goals. Prioritize strength training. Cardio equipment is frequently used as the sole method of weight loss. While cardio has its place in a fitness program, it shouldn’t be the priority. Instead, focus on building

The OK Factor is an unconventional string duo made up of cellist Olivia Hahn and violinist Karla Dietmeyer.
Dynamic duo Classical musicians create a sound all their own
HOLLY HUDSON holly.hudson@wcfcourier.com
CEDAR FALLS —You might think you know what to expect from a performance by two classically-trained musicians. If so, think again. Violinist Karla Dietmeyer and cellist Olivia Hahn, who make up the duo The OK Factor, will erase any preconceived notions you have. The two Luther College graduates were in town Jan. 2 for a pre-release event
F
promoting their first CD, “Water Street.” The event, held at Lampost Theatre on Seerley Boulevard, drew dozens of family members, friends, fans and Factor first-timers. The CD is set to be released later this month. Lampost offered a fitting setting for the casual, intimate event. Audience members enjoyed hot beverages and desserts as they anticipated the performance.
The musicians opened with an as-yet untitled song they wrote earlier that day. The pair writes the bulk of their music and sometimes intersperses portions of traditional folk songs. Though their sound is difficult to define – they experiment with everything from jazz to country – they are a self-described alternative folk duo. Their music fills the room, making it hard to believe

instruments. The two are so in sync it is sometimes difficult to tell which sound is coming from which instrument. At times the two are intently focused on their instruments; at others they are sharing smiles and glances. It is apparent the women are good friends. Hahn, 22, is a native of Cedar Falls and has been playing the cello since she
that only two instruments are creating the sounds, and they pull the audience in with their unorthodox style of playing. One moment Dietmeyer plucks the strings of her violin with her fingers, ukulele-style, and the next Hahn lays her cello across her knee and plays it with a guitar pick. Both use the chopping technique – tapping the strings with their bows – to coax a variety of sounds from their

Cowboy
Bull riding youngster heads for Colorado competition HOLLY HUDSON holly.hudson@wcfcourier.com
NEW HARTFORD — Austyn Smith sits at the kitchen table dressed in jeans, a western shirt and a cowboy hat with a large feather protruding from the band. Some might think the first-grader is a cowboy want-to-be, but the 7-year-old is the real deal. And he has the hardware to prove it. Gathered on the table are trophies, photographs and a large belt buckle, the spoils of his as yet short-lived, but successful, career as a miniature bull rider. Austyn, the son of Rick Smith of New Hartford and Trixy M iller of Klemme, is starting his third season with the Tuff N Nuff Miniature Rodeo Association, known as the TRMA. During his first two seasons, Austyn participated in the Pee Wee division for children 6 and younger and brought home a total of seven trophies. This year, he is participating in the Junior division, ages 7 through 11. Austyn gets very animated when he talks about his sport. “You keep your head down, get set on your rope, keep your chest out and dig in your feet,” he explained. In his final ride as a Pee Wee, Austyn had the choice of riding a familiar bull or one he hadn’t ridden before.
“You go big or go home,” he said. “I picked the biggest bull in there.” “He looked like a rag doll on a St. Bernard,” his dad said. Riders are required to stay on the animal — miniature bucking bulls that are 48 inches or less — for six seconds. The youngster even knows the bulls by name. “Felix is kinda jumpy,” he said. “Smurf is a spinner.” On Saturday, Austyn added another accolade to his bull riding resume. He was invited to participate in a preshow competition at the National Western Stock Show in Denver, Colo. “It’s the chance of a lifetime,” Rick Smith said. “It’s like a kid playing football opening up for his favorite professional team. He doesn’t realize the magnitude of it yet.” Austyn was introduced

to rodeos at an early age. “He’s been going to them since before he could walk,” Rick Smith said. “One day he looked at me and said, ‘Daddy, I’m going to ride bulls.’” Eventually Austyn would like to compete in All Around, which comprises bare back, saddle bronco and bull riding. These days, he and his father travel all summer long so Austyn can participate in bull-riding events. He has competed in Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Minnesota and Iowa. “That kid’s got more

It’s an Reach him at image that’s newsroom@ funny for its wcfcourier.com. preposterous vanity. It also sets the tone for what’s to come — a story of people for whom sincerity and deception are on the same side of the coin. Directed by David O. Russell (“The Fighter,” “Silver Linings Playbook”), “American Hustle” is a 1970s period piece that examines human and societal folly with enthusiastic attention to the details of crime. Its characters get what they think they need through conning, lying, cheating, stealing, blackmailing and through sheer force of will. The story is loosely based on Abscam, an FBI effort that recruited con artists to take down corrupt politicians. In it, Irving and his girlfriend Sydney (Amy Adams), a fellow con artist, are forced into cooperating with the feds by an ambitious FBI agent (Bradley Cooper) who’s possibly more corrupt than most of those he’s pursing. The screenplay isn’t so much interested in the Abscam case, but in the tangled web of relationships it created. While Irving loves Sydney, he juggles her with

Abscam’s primary target, Mayor Carmine Polito (Jeremy Renner) of Camden, N.J., is an analogue to Irving, a corrupt politician who seems to genuinely care about those close to him.

well in both dramatic and comedic moments, which frequently intersect as the plot thickens and the desperation grows. But despite a quick pace, “American Hustle” is too long, with a superfluous extended cameo by Robert De Niro and a litany of unnecessary scenes.
Bale further proves himself to be one of the best actors of his generation, a chameleon who has been equally convincing as a b i l l i o n a i re s u p e rh e ro, rail-thin drug addict and a flabby flim-flam man. Here, Bale creates a great character who sees life as something that needs

greasing. The supporting performances are uniformly excellent. Of particular note is Lawrence. She’s poised to become the actress of her generation, capable of taking any character, any line and any scene and leaving a searing, memorable mark. Ultimately, the film philosophically asserts that life can be made right despite our mistakes. We, as the film suggests, all wear different hats to survive this life. It’s a note of cockeyed optimism that, to his infinite credit, Russell sells as well as any of his characters could.

today without the classical training we received. But we wanted to branch out and try something new.” Their album, named after the main street in Decorah, pays homage to their alma mater and home for four years. Both women graduated in 2013. “Water Street was the OK Factor launching pad, home to our very first shows at ArtHaus downtown,” Dietmeyer said. “It was there that the love and support of the community overwhelmed us and emboldened us to continue pursuing our music.” The duo has played venues throughout the Midwest and Southeast, i n c l u d i n g T h e S to n e Arch Bridge Festival in Minneapolis, The Dakota Jazz Club and the Iowa State Fair. To pre-order “Water Street,” go to www.theokfactor.com/preorder/. After its release, the CD can be purchased at www. theokfactor.com or at live shows this spring and summer. You can follow The OK Factor on Twitter and Facebook and view their videos on YouTube.

The two came together while studying at Luther in Decorah. “We both played in the symphony and chamber orchestras for four years together,” Hahn said. “It wasn’t until our junior year … that we really became good friends. We attended the Eileen Ivers concert at Luther and, by the end, we were both in tears. We decided we had to try writing or playing music like that. … It seemed so liberating to be on stage wearing bright colors, not concert black, and performing without any music, making it up as you go along and following your instinct rather than the page. “We both have extremely high respect for classical music, as we studied it for four years. We absolutely could not do what we do
