Plan your workouts!
The most common excuse "I don't have
enough time" is very unhealthy. Everybody has a few hours
each week to exercise. Plan ahead. Schedule yourself into
your day and week. If you keep putting off your exercises,
it will be New Years Eve and you'll be saying "This year
I'm getting in shape". Start today and plan for tomorrow.
Don’t skip breakfast
In order to reach and maintain optimum health
and fitness, good nutrition is an essential part of any exercise
regime. Skipping breakfast could slow down your metabolism,
which could result in undesired weight gain. Lay off the snooze
button and get up for breakfast.
Set a specific goal
Make sure to set specific “realistic”
goals. Don’t make your goals vague. Write your goal
down and keep it somewhere you’ll see it each day (fridge,
mirror, screen-saver, couch etc.). What are you training for?
Set your goal and go after it!
Add fitness to your daily lifestyle
Too many of us take the easy road. Try taking
the escalator, stairs or walk the golf coarse and don’t
always circle for the closest parking spot. Take a few minutes
each day to use your body outside of the Gym. This could add
more healthy years to your life. Enjoy your health!
Make a fresh start with fruit!
I’m sure you have often felt bloated
or had indigestion after eating fruit. The reason is that
fruit needs to be eaten properly. To often people eat fruit
at the wrong times, although it’s a healthy choice your
body won’t make eating fruit enjoyable unless you...
- Eat fruit only in the morning (before
noon and on an empty stomach)
- Eat fresh fruit. The body is only capable
of utilizing fruit in its natural state. (Apple pie, frozen
fruit, canned fruit etc. Will not digest smoothly)
- Depending on the food, wait 2 –
8 hours before eating fruit. (To make this easier I recommend
the first point)
*All Fruits are digested in the Intestines
except for Banana's, Dried Fruit and apricots, which are digested
in the stomach. If you have food in the stomach, fruit will
not be able to be digested and will rot in your stomach making
you feel bloated and uncomfortable.
