You need a Health, Wellness and Fitness Agenda

What are you goals going forward? Do you want to lose weight, lose fat or feel and look better?  If so you need three things, an agenda, an address and someone or somebody to train/ workout with be it coach, trainer or friends. The first step to reach your main goals is to determined what it is and then set the action steps in place to get there. Look at your list, your short term, medium and long range goals and the specific steps you can take to move in the direction of your goals. Be as specific as things you can do daily.  Here are few things to consider: walk at least 30 minutes five times per week, stretch after each workout,take time to relax, pray or mediate, eat protein with every meal, eat slower, learn to taste your food. Eat more fruits and veggies. Drink more water, reduce your sugar intake. Inch by inch, by the yard it it hard.

Think different about exercise

If you are new to exercise, or dealing with pain caused by injuries or a chronic condition like arthritis, you should start a low impact program. Low impact does not mean it is easy unless you want if to be.  You can burn calories to lose weight and get in shape. I recommend my stretch and core program or an assisted stretch sessions. . This program burn about 150 calories per half hour. The amount of calories you burn during a particular routine is determined by several factor including your weight, gender and intensity level.

You don't stretch enough

You only have maybe an hour a day , four days a week, to hit the gym, and you are not about to waste it on stretching. The problem is if you do not stretch you lose flexibility and range if motion in each muscle. You will not be able to overload the muscle through its entire range and you'll limit your growth potential. Stretching is best done after working out to maximize flexibility and range if motion. It is never a good idea to stretch cold muscles, because it could lead to muscle pulls or tears. Call me Nate if have any questions, 786-218-3266

Are you eating too little or too much protein?

If you eat too much protein, the excess is sent to the liver, changed to sugar and used as fuel, stored as glycogen or stored as body fat. Many people don't realize that protein can be stored as fat.  Likewise, if you eat too little protein, you fall into a negative nitrogen balance, meaning there aren't enough amino acids  to make your muscles grow. Keep a record of your consumption. Shoot for 1-1.5 grams of protein per pound of body weight daily.

Kick start your post workout with stretching

Stretching helps to re- lengthen muscles contracted and shortened while training. You can increase your flexibility and agility as well. Call me at 786-217-3266 if you have any questions

Think Different about your health and motion

The more we know. the more we must know.. Technology adds to our confusion by accelerating the leaning process and removing us from a direct, hands -on relationship with many facets of life that were once readily experienced and understood. There are 639 individual muscles approximately 400 skeletal muscles and over 200 bones in an adult human. A medium - sized muscle contains about 10  million muscle cells, which means a total of 6 billion in the overall musculature. Movement is a determine factor of how we move and or feel.
