Good Health.

Being healthy is like everything else in life - a choice and you make that choice. Today I was walking through the local food court and couldn't help notice how many people were choosing to fuel their body with all that is unhealthy . Now I understand that it is your right to choose what you eat however your choice does ultimately effect others at some point.The consequence of today's choices will one day be felt by those you love your family and friends and even those you don't yet know.We are seeing the evidence here in Australia with such a high obesity rate .Consider our high rate of heart disease and diabeties.I find it interesting also that we so easily blame the fast food companies .Seriously they don't force their food down our throat we CHOOSE to eat it . We are ultimately responsible for our own actions or at least we should be .
Don't get me wrong here I enjoy some "fast food " like everybody else but in moderation as a treat.
If we all choose to have fast food as a treat how soon do you think it would be before the fast food companies would be forced to change their ways . Once again through the choices we make, could force change.
Just a few thoughts I wanted to share .Love to hear all thoughts on this .

warm up naturally

We are in the grip of winter and what better way to warm up then a good workout.Get your heart racing , work up a sweat and be warm for hours.
It is important to remember to warm up first .Your body is cold therefore you need to warm it before you start your work out to avoid muscle injury.
A good twenty minute cardio workout will do the trick as will resistance training. Also because we tend to eat more carbs during winter this is a great way to burn up those extra calories.
So go and warm up the natural way.

Winners are Grinners.

We have all suffered set backs in life . Things that have caused us to question our abilities. How we approach these set backs determines if we are winners.We can train our brain to see set backs as stepping stones to something better or we can give up.
The same goes for us on a weight loss journey .If you find yourself struggling with not losing the weight don't give up .Look for a reason why and change what you are doing .Remember "If you always do what you've always done you'll get what you've always got "
So if your not getting the desired results in life it's time to change something , maybe everything . Improve your odds in life . Put aside the fear and take the challenge head on. You may be suprised how good you really are .What ever you do be brilliant at it .

Vitamins

Did you know there are 2 types of vitamins ?
Fat soluble and water soluble .

Fat soluble vitamins are stored in the fat tissue and your liver .They hang out there until the body requires them.
Fat soluble vitamins are A..D..E..K..

Water soluble vitamins travel through the body in the blood and any excess is passed through when you urinate. The body does not store these vitamins
Water soluble Vitamins are ..C...B ..
The body does not make vitamins .What we eat supplies us .

This is why so much importance is placed on good nutrition.

GETTING MOTIVATED.

Are you having trouble getting motivated to go to the gym ? I have a simple answer. Don't think about it ...just do it! The more time we spend thinking about it the more excuses we will come up with not to go.
Sometimes we feel to tired, or feel we have to much to do .Then theres the age old excuse "don't feel like it " . Now while all these thoughts may be true they are just ...EXCUSES!!! What about how you feel after a session at the gym ? A good work out clears out your system .Sweat out the toxins.Remember that a good work out releases those feel good endorphins .
So next time your thinking "No I don't feel like today " Just go ! Your body , mind and soul will thank you for it .

Have an AWSUM day .
