As a Team Beachbody Personal Fitness Coach, I have helped over 100 people successfully lose weight and change their lives. Here are the top 3 things you need to keep in check in order to have more energy, lose weight, and improve functioning all around the board.
1. EAT RIGHT.
Good nutrition is the foundation to any healthy lifestyle. You should have a healthy diet which includes fruits, vegetables, and protein like chicken, fish, meats. Avoid fatty foods, such as fast food or grease. Stay away from soda and alcohol. EAT BREAKFAST! Research supports the fact that those who eat a balanced breakfast lose weight. Not many people know the correct way to eat. 3 meals a day is the standard, but if you want to lose weight, be more fit, have more energy and control in life. You need to be eating 5x a day, every 3 hours. These meals are smaller portions. Beware of eating huge portions. Eat for life-sustainment, not lifestyle. Cut out the bad and bring in the good. If you would like more nutritional advice, comment, or message me on facebook.
2. SLEEP
Sleep is paramount to a healthier lifestyle. The standard is 7-9 hours of sleep. Everyone's body is different so figure out where in that range is best for you. If you honestly believe you need more than 9 hours of sleep, you are sleeping out of lifetsyle, not for necessity. Sleeping (just like eating) takes time and effort to manage. Once managed, you will have the energy, vitality, and resilience to handle every day stressors. Those who get less sleep and oversleep find themselves always lethargic, groggy, slow to warm up, and they don't lose weight.
3. EXERCISE
This is my favorite (of course). The standard is: 30 min a day, accelerated heart rate. The GOLD standard is 35-59 min a day, accelerated heart rate. Mix and match with anaerobic exercise (strength and resistance training) and aerobic. That is called "cross-training". Beachbody programs to the best job in cross training. Also proper stretching before and after workouts increase range of motion, mobility, and vitality. 6 days a week with 1 day off is the best. Another one of those 6 days can be used for anaerobic training or stretching like yoga. This along with eating and sleep takes time to develop. A beachbody program is the easy way to create the structure. Message me for more info on Beachbody.
CONCLUSION
If you find yourself in a rut of some sort, overstressed, tired, overweight, low confidence, or any other negative stressor overwhelming you. You can check your lifestyle and you will find something lacking in these three. If you have mastered these three congrats! I have not yet. This is a lifetime endeavor and for those who have children, you know how hard these are. Now step back, reevaluate, and see what structures and plans you can create to have more control over any one of these three points.
