Fitness Tip #21 - Do Not Make This Mistake!


21. Skipping meals. 

There are lots of people today who skip their meals, especially breakfast for thinking that it can help them achieve weight loss. Skipping meals can actually result to more weight gain, since it can slow down your body’s metabolism. Aside from that, it can make you feel too hungry when it is meal time, which can result to binge eating.

Skipping meals is just not a good idea. You are cheating your body out of way too much in terms of fuel for the day! Eat every meal, but make sure that the fuel you are providing your body will meet the demand of your day.

But I Do Love Fried Food!

Hope your week is going well. Today we are posting Fitnes Tip #20. Yes, this is a biggie for me! I have a hard time shying away from the fried and fast food. I am such a sucker for a great fried burger and fries! But I am workinig on it!!


20. Stay away from foods that have been fried.
 
Fried foods are called as such, since they are cooked either in fat or oil. Thus, the more amounts of fried foods you consume, the more oil your body would absorb. Keep in mind that even when the external oil has already been drained, there are still lots of it that remain in the food itself

And The Fitness Tips Keep Coming!

Here is our latest fitness tip in our on going commitment to provide 100 fitness tips over the course of a year.



19. Drinking coffee

Some people think that drinking coffee is a bad idea, especially when a person is trying to lose weight. On the contrary, drinking hot coffee at breakfast is actually a good idea, since it can help in boosting your energy levels. Just don’t drink coffee shakes in coffee shops too often though, since they are filled with lots of calories that can make you gain weight.

The mass media outlets continue to muddy the waters as to actual benefits/harm of coffee. (Everything in moderation!) Personally I like to drink a cup of coffee about 20 minutes before I workout or teach a class. The energy really helps!


These two coffees are not for the faint of heart! If you like your coffee with a bigger KICK, these are the way to go! Don't say you were not warned!

If We Are Going To Do It, At Least Do It Right! Fitness Tip #18

Fitness Tip #18: 
The best snack items.  

When you snack between meals, it is wise if you also become conscious not just on your food portions, but also on the types of foods you eat. 

The best types of foods for your snacks would be fruits and vegetables. Munching on carrots or an apple would not just help in maintaining your health, but it would also control your appetite for the coming meal.  

You know that mindlessly snacking out of the chip bag is not the way to go for our health or as an example for our loved ones!

Fitness Trackers Can Help Keep You Moving!

If You Have Not Reached The Fitness Goals That You Were Hoping For, Fitness Trackers May Be Just The Motivator That You Need!


I received the Jawbone unit as a gift from my wife and I really liked it for some aspects and others not so much! I really liked that I could sync it with my phone and track my results. What I didn't like was that I had to remove it when I was doing my Kettlebell presses.

 It was really pretty motivating to track my info. If you are interested, this unit is pretty basic, but gives you the info you want to keep track of. Let us know what you think!

Fitness Tip #17


17. Eat only on times when you need to. 
 
If you feel the need to open up your refrigerator and grab something to eat, you should think first, whether it is time for your snack or not. If it is not, try to drink a glass of water first, since there are times when your body would mistaken thirst as hunger. If you really need to grab a snack though, make sure that it is something healthy.
