It is sometimes a burden to try to get yourself all psyched up to go workout! Especially if you are in a workout rut! Here are some ways to get back on the band wagon!
We contemplate this suggestion very carefully weighing the negative aspects and the possible benefits. Yes we think about it after a very idle day of sitting at a desk, and after having eaten two calorie and fat loaded meals while contemplating another one soon. We have not been able to get into the jeans we wore just a year ago even by "tugging, grunting, and laying flat on our back, to snap them," no way!
Every day the television and the articles in magazines nag at us, working on our consciousness, "loose weight, exercise!" Try as we may, it is very difficult to ignore the prompting.
Americans are overweight, more than ever before. The dangerous chance of a heart attack looms ever before us as a possibility. It is time to exercise and get healthy … even if we think we are not quite ready to approach the formidable subjects of exercise and good nutrition.
I suppose most people think of exercise as "pain" pure and simple, and it can be. There are those who are up to it, and those like me ... who at one time were, but now would prefer to exercise with less intensity.
One of the major killers of Americans is cardiovascular disease, with the great cohort being habits we have developed over a lethargic lifetime. Too many "fast foods" and not enough activity are the greatest culprits.
Regular physical activity will begin to positive benefits right away and will ultimately prove to be a lifesaver in later years. It is never too late to start.
Physical activity need not be extreme to be beneficial. Moderate activity of 30 minutes a day (try brisk walking), up to 5 times per week will strengthen the heart and produce weight loss. This exercise reduces not only the risk of coronary heart disease, but also lessons the risk of colon cancer, diabetes, and high blood pressure. It also helps with bone density. It will even counteract depression and anxiety!
Nutrients!
Good nutrition substantively helps to reduce the chance of developing such diseases as coronary heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes, and osteoporosis. Americans eat too much fat and too few fruits and vegetables. We eat up to 30 % less of the recommended servings of fruits and vegetables according to the Center for Disease Control. The CDC also notes that more than 3 million women weigh at least 100 pounds more than the recommended body weight and between 20 to 30 % of the nations adults are at least 30 pounds overweight.
Eat fewer calories than you burn (basic knowledge for most of us). Losing weight is not as complex as many perceive it to be. "Just start," it is a mindset; do it slowly, loose no more than one to two pounds a week. It is not rocket science, simply eat less, and eat the right nutritious food. Eat only 500 calories less per day (about one honey bun less), increase your activity, and you will lose about 3500 calories a week, which is one pound.
