Top Ten Fitness Tips
Certified personal trainer, Eleni Calevas, shares her top ten fitness tips:
Focus on fat loss rather that weight loss. Your body is made up of lean muscle tissue and fat. Lean muscle tissue consists of your bones, organs and muscle tissue and is good weight. Always try to maintain or increase your lean muscle tissue.
Do not consume "energy" drinks or bars prior to exercise if you are trying to lose weight (fat). These products will spike your blood sugar levels, which causes insulin to be released into your bloodstream. Insulin halts your body's fat-burning process and encourages fat storage. You have plenty of sugar stored in your muscles to complete at least three hours of exercise.
Do not weigh yourself every day. Use a tape measure, the mirror and how your clothes fit to monitor your progress. Weight is not the enemy ... fat is.
Surround yourself with people who have the same health and fitness goals. You will support each other during times of low motivation and high stress.
Try to make some form of exercise a daily habit. The best time to do this is first thing in the morning — this will maximize fat loss results and minimize the chance you will not do it later in the day.
Include some weight training in your exercise routine. This will help increase your strength, tone your body, boost your metabolism and help prevent osteoporosis.
Keep a set of dumbbells nearby if you do not have time for a formal workout. You can take a quick break and sneak in a quick set of arm raises, shoulder presses or squats.
Try to do your exercises during these quick breaks. It all adds up.
Keep an exercise journal so you can monitor your progress and reward yourself when you reach a goal.
All exercise (physical activity) burns calories. Keep moving. Take the stairs. Walk. Run. Stretch. It all helps.
Start today! There are hundreds of reason not to exercise, and for many of us tomorrow never comes. Break some old habits and start some new ones. The rewards of looking and feeling your best are priceless. Go now!
