We all want to be healthy, but are we ready to change our lifestyle? If you want to have healthy life you need to follow this simple rules. Start with small steps, soon you will notice how you body is changing, you will have more energy, fell better….
This exercise involves the use of two dumbbells, which you hold in your hands next to your body. Assume athletic stance with dumbbells at sides and feet slightly wider than hip width. Keeping back straight and knees behind toes, sink hips back and lower into squat until thighs are parallel to ground.
Extend hips and knees to drive up out of squat position. Repeat for specified reps. Beginners should focus on perfecting form and technique before adding resistance. Perform bodyweight Squats or Wall Squats if you are beginner.
Benefits from physical activity are multiple. Physical activity improves mood, prevents anxiety and depression. It helps in prevention of diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and different kinds of cancers. It lowers high blood pressure, regulates cholesterol, helps to lower weight etc. Is it going for a gym workout, walking in park, swimming or having a personal trainer (which is definitely best solution), try to be active.
Water is very important for good health. Did you know that 50-60% of body mass is water and 70% of muscles is water? It helps to regulate body temperature, it helps to control and lose weight because it stimulates metabolism. Water is involved in all major processes in body, in transport of nutrients and bad products of metabolism. Daily recommendation for water intake is 2-3 liters for person approximately 75 kg.
Bad eating habits are one of the risk factors that can cause obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, heart and brain stroke, high cholesterol etc. Try not to eat junk food, try not to drink carbonated drinks such as coca-cola, pepsi etc. Even those “natural” juices often have added sugar so try to avoid them. Don’t eat late at night. Eat plenty of fresh vegetable and fruits. Try to avoid fried food
Skipping the meals slows down your metabolism. Also, if you skip the meal, you are going to feel hungrier craving junk food which leads to weight gain on a long run. So try to stick to the schedule: breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner.
If you feel that there is anything that makes you upset, anxious or stressful (is it bed music, bed food, bad people, TV news…) try to avoid – don’t listen it, don’t watch it, and don’t communicate. Surround yourself with positive people and enjoy the content which makes you feel good.
This is the hardest part because, so often we don’t have a choice, we are forced to something. But so often, we also have a choice. So choose wisely.
Recent scientific studies demonstrate that people who spend 2 hours weekly in nature are healthier and psychologically more stable comparing to those who don’t. Time in nature makes our immune system stronger, it helps to release stress, it improves our emotional and mental status, stimulates vitamin D production etc. Try to spend at least 2 hours in the nature because, as you can see, benefits are multiple.
By science you need 21 to 67 days to create habits. That is short period that can dramatically increase you life duration and quality. Start first with physical activity, we promise that you will feel much better!
It’s ok to have hard days and days off but we promise you’ll never regret a workout.
