TOP 5 Reasons to Excersise

Walking, biking, running and swimming are all forms of excersise.  Excersize comes in all different shapes and sizes, some can be as simple as playing tennise while others can be more intense like rocking climbing.  Whatever your form of excersise, it is very important that you find a routine that is easy for you that you enjoy doing a few times per week.

Excersize is the antidote to such things as stress and low self esteem and can even affect such things as your social life.  Below are 5 reasons why you should excersise.

Quality of Life.
There’s no guarantee you’ll live longer by practicing a fittness lifestyle, but chances are you will live better!  A good excersise program will actually increase your health and help you live life to the fullest.  By avoiding back pains, raised self esteem and a happier healther life. 

Stress Relief.
Feeling tense?  Overwhelmed?  Taking ragular exercise breaks, even as short as 30 minuets a day, can refresh and relax you.  Use the time to calm yourself, regain perspective on what’s important, or even figure out a solution to a problem.  It is a proven fact that a constant routine of excersise helps people coupe with stress.  Stress is very hard on your body and can cuase it to age quicker and deteriate faster.  Kick the stress with some excersize!

Add a Spring to Your Step.
Excersising can raise your VO2 (the amount of oxygen your muscles can use) by up to 40%.  That means you have more energy and everyday task become easier.

Kick the FLU.
Excersise bolsters your immune system.  A person with a healthy excersize program will not only feel better all the time but will even be sick less.  With the stronger immune system you will fight the common cold faster.

Iron Heart.
Excersise programs that have alot of aerobic activity such as running, walking, swimming and cycling will actually strengthen your cardiovascular system.  What does this mean to you?  It means your heart is more efficient and less susceptible to disease.

There are alot more reasons you should excersise!  In the time we live in it is easier than ever to obtain food and avoid excersise.  This is why our society is getting fatter every decade.  This is not how we were meant to live.  It may be hard to start up into an excersize program but it will be well worth the effort!

Find a friend to start with you, it will help with your motivation.

3 Fitnes Tips to a slimmer you!

1. Eat right - healthy food is the foundational stone in the construction of a healthy body. Make sure you eat more often, say every 3 hours and see that your diet includes plenty of fruits, water and foods rich in calcium and iron. Make sure you have adequate amounts of all the other required nutrients in your diet too so that you don’t end up with any deficiencies.

2. Exercise regularly - exercise is very important in your efforts to keep fit. Different people prefer different forms of exercise like, playing a sport such as tennis, swimming, athletics, football, basketball and so on while other may prefer yoga, meditation and long walks. When you play a sport, make sure you play it right. Proper technique plays a very important role in staying safe and avoiding injury. Every player should follow the basic three steps of any sport – warm up drill, game time and cool down drill.

3. Reduce stress - At the present times, according to medical studies, stress reduces physical and mental health of an individual while increasing the chances of various systemic diseases. No doubt, jobs are often stressful with cut-throat competition and deadlines that one can barely meet, but that should not be your excuse. Health is the most precious form of wealth that one could ever posses. There are many ways to reduce stress levels. Physical activity, mediation, breathing exercises, massages, talking to your kids and pets, etc, are some of them. Some would also turn to soothing music, while others would just take a little nap to clear their head.

Why Mini Workouts are better for you than hour workouts!

Let me show you show you a “fast-as-LIGHTNING” way I discovered to melt excess whale blubber, double your energy levels, get pro-athlete fitness and real world or “useable” strength with easy to do 1 to 5 minute “Mini-Workouts.”

This mega fruit gulping – 25 bananas a day eating fiend doesn’t have time to waste doing an hour or two of aerobics every day.

In fact — long aerobics sessions can actually train your body to put on more fat!

Unfortunately millions of obese people are still overweight due to horribly ignorant fitness and dietary advice given by many certified personal trainers around the United States. Good thing I’m not a certified personal trainer, it allows me to think outside the box and not be brainwashed by the orthodoxy.

10 Minute Crazy Hard Cardio

Alright, this one is going to seriously kick your butt!  If you don’t have much time but really want a good cardio workout??  This one is said to have the same affects as running nearly 3 miles.

You will need a stop watch for this one.

1. Jumping Jacks for 30 seconds.

2. Rest for 10 seconds.

3. Push Up’s for 30 seconds.  (Use your knees if you have to, no big deal)

4. Rest for 10 seconds.

5. High Knees for 30 seconds.  (Standing position; you act like your running in place pulling your knees way up into the air.)

6. Rest for 10 seconds.

7. Stair climbers for 30 seconds. (in pushup position; you pull one leg up towards your chest and touch the ground and then throw this leg back and bring the other one up simotaniously.  This should look like you are running up the stairs.)

8. Rest for 10 seconds.

9. Repeat 4 times.  


You will want to quite half way through this excersise but remember this is well worth it and it has to be this intesnes…that is why it is so beneficial in such a short amount of time!  :)


This can be very hard on some one who is just starting out.  You should consult your doctor or physician before trying any excersize this hard.

Stop Spending Money on Pre-Workout Supplements

Are you taking pre-workout supplements?  Do you sometimes wonder if it is helping?  Are you feeling/seeing much of a difference?  It could be that your supplement is not good and/or it has improoper ingredients.  Now before you read further I am not agianst all suplements but many times there is a more nautral cheaper way to go!

Here’s what I want you to try for the next two weeks.  Right before your next weight lifting session I want you to try eating a banana and a little bit of parsley.  Bananas have potassium and calcium in them, which help increase muscle contraction and will allow you to work harder and lift more.  Bananas also help relieve cramps and will help you be less sore.  The Parsley (that little dumb green leaf) will actually aid in your potassium absorption.  This will result in giving you an even better workout!

If your next workout isn’t a weight lifting session but a cardio/running excersise then I want you to try a different food.  Try eating blackberries before your run.  That little amazing fruit will not only help with health benefits through its antioxidant content, but will also help cure inflammation and promote oxygen in the body.  There is nothing your body needs more than oxygen and help with inflamation during a run. 

Also, remember no matter what you take or don’t take during, before or after a workout…water is an essential part of any excersize plan.  You need to make sure you hydrate yourself or their could be serious reprocussions.  


I bet you in two weeks time you will start to wonder why you were paying all that money for pre-workout supplements. 


For a list of what you should be taking after your workouts I have made another post on my blog about that.  Take a peek for it!

Killer Arm Workout! Try this on your next Excersise

Try this amazing horribly painful, amazing gain, awesomeness excersize workout!  You will only need a few different weights for this excersise and you can perform this routine at home.

For this workout I use one amount of weights for my bar…You will want a pretty low level of weights since this workout is intense.  For beginners I would almost recommend a 30lbd bar and for women maybe even less.

Then you will also need a heavy dumbbell…this dumbbell should be heavier than you can curl on your own. Probably 35lbds is a good starting point for beginner males and 20lbds for beginner females.

Last, you will need a very light weight dumbbell…probably 10-15lbds for beginners.

 

This workout you are about to read is very intense and you need to be careful you don’t overdue it.  Consult your doctor before starting up a heavy fittness regimen.

 

Visit this video to see the workout in action!

What you didn’t know about your after workout eating habbits that could really effect you!

Do you tend to eat immediately after a workout or are you one of the Non-eaters?

The Non-Eaters will not really eat anything after a workout, but instead later in the day will treat themselves (to sweets, chips, alcohol,etc) because they feel they deserve it since they excersised.

The Immediate Eaters immediately consume a protein bar and a post workout shake within 5-10 minutes after their workout.

Let’s now analyze what your body needs…

For the first thirty minutes after a workout your body is still ready to excersize.  Your muscles are innervated, they are ready to go at the drop of the hat and are not ready to begin repairing yet. 

After thirty minutes, your muscles relax and begin to repair themselves.  This is when one would want to consume protein, because protein aids in the muscle rebuilding process.  So, you consume your post workout protein bar or beverage 30 minutes to 1 hour after your workout, you will be helping your muscles rebuild during their “PRIMETIME” rebuilding process and maximizing the benefits of the protein you’re taking in.

In about 2-3 hours, you should consume a regular meal (with a decent level of protein in it) to continue aiding in the muscle rebuilding process.  DO NOT treat yourself to bad foods, for your muscles will still be crying out for protein and you will be feeding them sugar or heavy carbohydrates…THEY NEED PROTEIN.

It is important to eat as healthy as you can on your excersise days!  The following day you can indulge in that small ice cream cone….but if you stay away from sweets or excess carbs on workout days you will see better and faster results.

Do You Have Flat Abs? NO! ~Then check this out

The Top 5 Reasons Why Most 
People Can’t Drop That Last 
10-20 lbs Of Ugly Belly Fat…

And How You Can Lose Yours With Ease And 
Finally Unveil Your Six Pack!

By John Alvino – Fat Loss Expert , Master Trainer & Strength and Conditioning Coach

 

 

REASON #1. Performing Ab Exercises Such as Crunches, Sit-ups and Leg Raises. These are among the LEAST effective exercises for getting six pack abs. In fact, they do your abs more harm than good. We’ll discuss what types of exercises REALLY work in just a minute.

REASON #2. Eating “Health” Foods. Many so-called “diet” foods are just cleverly marketed junk food. You would be shocked to learn that some of these supposedly healthy foods actually CAUSE your body to gain even more belly fat…yet the diet food industry continues to lie to you so they can maximize their profits at your expense.

REASON #3. Doing Cardio Routines. Cardio is definitely NOT the best way to lose body fat and uncover those six pack abs. Most people who make this mistake tend to hit plateaus they can never overcome. Below, I’ll show you totally unique workouts that will produce 8.5 times better fat loss results.
