7 Healthy Habits
Copyright 2005 strength-training-woman.com
There has never been a better time to take stock of your life
than right now. This moment is the beginning of the New Year. It
is the beginning of resolutions to lose fat and get fit.
However, 2006 promises to be another year that we grow fatter
and unhealthier. Use these 7 healthy habits to go against the
tide and create a vibrant year.
Habit 1- Eat Regularly. Eat small meals every 3-4 hours.
Skipping meals can lead to unstable blood sugar levels which can
cause fatigue or restlessness. Eating throughout the day causes
stable moods and a healthier metabolism.
Habit 2- Eat Lightly. Each meal should contain a complex
carbohydrate and a lean protein. Keep high fat foods or salty
snacks out of the pantry. Once sugar and salt are kept to a
minimum, the body begins to heal and crave fresh, healthy foods.
Habit 3- Do Not Smoke. There is not one positive fact on
smoking. Cigarettes cause the human body to deteriorate at
ridiculous levels. Quitting smoking is the number one way to
improve health drastically. Also be aware of second hand smoke.
It can be just as harmful.
Habit 4- Consume Alcohol in Moderation. A bottle of beer or
glass of wine each day is realistic. However, drinking more than
three servings daily is a bit much and puts the body at risk.
Moderation is certainly important.
Habit 5- Sleep 7-9 Hours Each Night. Deep, peaceful sleep
rejuvenates the body. It relaxes the mind and replenishes the
soul. Irregular sleeping patterns can lead to mood swings and
poor nutrition. The trick is to receive 7-9 hours of sleep each
night as opposed to
a few nights out of the week.
Habit 6- Exercise Regularly. Get active and promote health and
fitness by participating in a fitness program. Combine cardio,
strength training and stretching for a balanced approach.
Learning how to strengthen the body will improve mood and sleep
patterns.
Habit 7- Consult With the Professionals. Tackling each of the
above habits can be a nightmare. That is why habit 7 is the most
important habit of all. Consulting with a nutritionist or
personal trainer can be motivating as well as insightful. The
best way to trim the fat and get in shape is to follow the
advice of industry professionals.
2006 does not have to be the same as last year. The promise of a
better life is in reach. Fueling the body with healthy habits
will create a happier and healthier world. Eat regularly and
lightly, do not smoke or drink a lot of alcohol, sleep and
exercise consistently and ask your personal trainer or
nutritionist the best way to stay fit.
