Happy New Year Everyone!
It’s now the time of year when resolutions are made, as well as broken far too early. I’ve seen it every year of my professional career when someone decides that they want to change their lifestyle and get into shape. Some of these people succeed and some of them falter in the face of adversity; which will you be?
With the growing number of over-weight and obese people I hope that all of you who decide to make health a lifestyle exceed your expectations and blow away all of your fitness goals.
Here are a few simple changes that everyone can make to their daily routines in order to ensure complete success of your resolution:
1. Drink 16oz of chilled water first thing in the morning when you wake up. Your body will be dehydrated from numerous hours of sleep and drinking water first thing will help jump start your metabolism for the day
2. Take the stairs at work instead of the elevator. This will help you burn more calories through-out the day
3. If you MUST eat fast food than choose items off the healthier menu keeping calories from fat down, especially saturated and trans fats
4. Never sit for longer than 1 hour straight. Sitting too long will cause issues in flexibility as well as the hips and lower back
5. Eat something small every 3 hours. 3 square meals and 2 snacks
Put these simple steps into play and you’ll be heading in the right direction for success!
Good luck everyone and as always if you have any questions you know where to reach me!
Happy New Year!
