Todays Workout~Oct 30 2013

Today's run did not start out all that great.However I did HIIT and I think that once I got past the whole I do not feel like working out mode,the better the run was.I often think our moods have a direct reflection on our workouts.All in all it was a good calorie burn and I am thinking Friday and Saturday's workout will be just as good.I am doing strength training tomorrow.Getting up at 5am can be tiresome,however its a great way to start the day.

Do You Enjoy Your Halloween Goodies?

People often wonder when they are trying to stay in shape and lose weight,if indulging a little is a bad thing.I say all things in moderation.However if you find yourself enjoying your goodies a little too much,here are some tips:

1.Enjoy a little each day!If you find you nosh all day at the chips,prepare little baggies for the week.You tend to eat less when you are not eating all the bag at once.Spread that bad over the course of a week or two.

2.You love candy!I find if you reward yourself a little at a time,it tends to go a long way.If you have to have a Reese Cup,have one a week.Put them in a place where you will not find them easily.For me I have one once a week.I tend not to buy sweets all too much,however all things in moderation.

3.Cravings!Lets say you are having a craving for ice cream or something just as sinful lol,I say eat a smaller serving,just to satisfy the craving.If you completely avoid your favorite snacks,you tend to binge later.So give in just a little and you will find your waistline will thank you later.

Just remember that anything in excess is not good for you,if you keep that in mind you will achieve better results,and you will be able to achieve your goals and remain in control.Over the next several weeks I will be writing articles about the holidays and how to enjoy them without going up on the scale.Stay tuned!

Todays Workout~Oct 21.2013

Today's workout at 5am,was rather an enjoyable one!I do often enjoy running first thing in the morning during the weeks,while enjoying longer workouts on Saturdays.I do run indoors,however its still a workout nonetheless.What I do to keep things interesting,is to do HIIT.Short bursts of speed accompanied with an incline gives me not just a good calorie burn,but a great workout overall.Did you workout today?What types of workouts do you do?How do you change your routine up?I will be running again tomorrow,followed by strength training on Wednesday.

Can Eating to Little Stall Weight Loss?

Most people think if they eat less,that they will lose weight.While that is true,you have to know how much you need to cut back on.Eating too little will actually hurt you in the long run.Say you are working out,and eating as healthy as you can,but yet you still are not losing weight.In fact you have gained `a few pounds.This often happens if you are not eating enough.Your body will hold on/retain whatever you eat and store it as fat as if its in survival mode.So the lesson here is eat when you are hungry.I often suggest smaller mini meals throughout the day.Make sure they are balanced with equal amounts of healthy fats,proteins and carbs.Also make sure you include legumes,fruits,veggies and lean meats,nuts,seeds etc.Remember not all calories are made equal.Losing weight,working out are not easy,however if you work at it,it becomes more simple and you will achieve the results you are looking and working for.
