Weight loss - Simple!

Want to reach your weight loss goals...Simple...Just Move

It's actually very simple; if you want a trim, fit, healthy body
that will be yours forever, you have to move, and you have to
move often.

Here is a simple question I ask everyone who tells
me that they feel run down, unhealthy and depressed.

"How many times a week do you elevate your heart
rate to 70% of it's maximum for 10 minutes or more?"

Guess what the answer is almost 100% of the time?

"Never"

You must add movement habits to your life
if you want to be fit, trim and healthy.

If you live a sedentary lifestyle your health will suffer,
that is a guarantee. If you want to feel and look good
you have to move and you have to move often.

"Real-life activities happen standing. We are rarely
if ever asked to apply force in a sitting position or laying down.
We live in a dynamic, free weight, three dimensional environment.
Your training should stress whole-body multi-dimensional movements,
so each exercise trains the most musculature, burns the most
calories, elevates the whole body's metabolism, and has the highest
transference into real world or athletic abilities. In short, you
get the biggest bang for your buck."


* Walk more everyday
* Buy a pedometer and track how many steps you take each day.
* Do exercises like jumping jacks, rope jumping and running in
  place while watching TV.
* Go to your library or bookshop and get books on exercise.
  * Become a fitness maniac....read about it, do it,
  make it a daily part of your life....you will be rewarded.

How important is movement?

Being overweight and physically inactive accounts for more
than 300,000 premature deaths annually in the United States,
second only to deaths related to smoking.

A study done at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center
at Dallas found that a 50-year-old could be brought back to the
fitness levels of a 20-year-old with just 6 months of
exercise training!

What can Movement habits do for me?

Well for one thing, they can help you reach your goal of a trim
and fit body and maintain it permanently. Combine them with other
diet and positive movement habits and you have a powerful
combination that will get you trim fast.

Does that sound good to you? They can also improve your health,
make you look younger, and can increase your longevity.

Let's see, positive movement habits can help me live longer and
while I am living longer I will have a trim and fit body and
look younger......not a bad combination, wouldn't you say?

To make daily movement a part of your lifestyle, you simply have to
acquire positive movement habits. Once you have acquired them,
they will be yours forever and so will the benefits that come with
them. They will help you to achieve the trim and fit body you have
been wanting and help you to maintain it.
