Health And Fitness Tips: Stay on the fitness track


Making a new year resolution has become a tradition for many people. It's an opportunity for us to forget the past and move on to a better future. But unfortunately when it comes to making a health and fitness resolution, most people can't stick to it. People tend to fall back to their old habits after about one month.

If you're looking for some suggestions on how to keep your health and fitness resolution on track, you've come to the right place. In this article, you will learn some great tips on how to plan and stick to a successful health and fitness programme.

There are tons of excuses for not sticking to a health and fitness resolution and the two most common excuses across the board are LACK of TIME and/or MONEY. Perhaps you've heard all these excuses before. Something like... "can't set aside few hours each day for exercise or can't afford a gym membership or expensive home gym equipments".

Well, the truth is that getting into shape doesn't need you to put aside hours of your time each day or buy an expensive equipment or join a gym membership. Here are some suggestions for you to burn some calories in your body...

- If your house and office are within a walking distance, take the opportunity to walk to work or home as many times as possible. If you take public transport to work, stop somewhere nearby and then walk the remaining distance.

- If your company has stairs, make use of them.

- When you're working, use your breaks to take a walk and stretch out.

- Form a small fitness group with your colleagues. Being around with people who have the same goals can be very encouraging and motivating.

Remember that every additional step you take during the day can help to burn extra calories and move you closer to your goal.

If you prefer to exercise at home, there are many simple strength exercises you can perform easily in just minutes a day without any fancy or expensive equipment. Some examples are push-ups, crunches, squats and lunges. All these exercises are great in strengthening a particular muscle group and burning extra calories. You use your own body weight for resistance. And you can also include additional strength exercises using inexpensive resistance bands that cost under $40. See Bodylastics Home Gym.

When it comes to diet, the most important thing to pay attention to is NUTRITION. It's so important to follow good nutrition principles when you're trying to improve your body. Here are four best fat burning nutrition tips for you...

1. Eat several small meals per day rather than 2-3 large meals.

2. Be aware of what you eat. Small changes can make a big difference. For example: drink water instead of higher calorie drinks.

3. Know how many calories you should take per day to maintain your bodyweight.

4. If you want to lose weight, reduce your food intake. For example, when ordering a restaurant meal, ask for the lunch portion or box half of the meal.

The bottom line is that regular exercise and healthy diet are the greatest gifts that you give yourself. With consistency and discipline, you will stay on the fitness track and lead a more happy and healthy life.
