Dear Fitness Friends,

Life is getting busier for me. I know this is also the case for many of you. Sometimes we wonder how we can do everything that needs to be done. Often, exercise is the first to go. This doesn't have to be the case, nor should it.

When you make the time to exercise, you usually will have more energy. Having more energy will help you get more done during the day.

In order to make the time, you may have to get up a little earlier, use your lunch break, or get to the gym right after work to get in some type of exercise.

I'm not saying that this is always possible. Just choose 3 to 5 days during the week that look more promising, write this down on your calendar and stick to your schedule.

It may not be easy as it sounds, but you will feel better and feel good about getting your exercise. This will build upon itself and get easier as time goes by.

Next month I may have some news to share with you!

To your health,

Water and Your Health

by Garth Wilcox.

Each and every cell of our body contains water. Water is what carries nutrients into the cell, and it functions inside of the cell as a runny constituent. The body's components are all retained in this solution, while water forces any waste and exudation from the cells. Water is what controls your body temperature, adopting itself to the release of water from the body or any other alterations in the body. There are always four quarts of water flowing throughout the body in the bloodstream.

There is not a single cell that doesn't contain water. Water, which functions inside of the cell as a runny constituent, is what brings the nutrients into the cell. This solution is what holds these bodily materials, all while water forces any waste and exudation from the cells. Water not only manages bodily temperature, but it also aligns with loss of water and any differences that come up in the body.

Four quarts of water are perpetually being passed through the bloodstream in the body. With an overweight individual, on average, their body weight is just 55% water. However, with the average person's body weight, they have approximately 70% water flowing through their system. Insubstantial amounts of water consumption can weigh down on your health.

Consequently, the human body responds by retaining more sodium in the bloodstream in order to match up with the water levels as closely as possible. If this should go on for too long, the body's electrolyte and fluid levels (including potassium, sodium, calcium, etc.) could badly fall out of balance, which will bring about major health issues.

You should begin each day with one or two glasses of warm water. Doing this will help to wake up your digestive track, flush it out and prepare your body for the rest of your daily activities. It also quite imperative that you get plenty of water between meals and not during them. You should not drink water at a meal, as it is not meant to be washed down. Eat your food at a leisurely pace, so that your saliva is given an ample amount of time to blend with the food in your mouth.

As you drink more fluids at a meal, the food will become harder to process in the digestion phase since it needs to be fully absorbed. There are a lot of people who mistakenly drink cold water at meal time. When you drink water with a meal, it weakens your salivary glands' ability to break down the food, and colder water heightens the risk of damage to your stomach. Alcohol, soft drinks, iced water and lemonade all inhibit the digestion process until the body has passed on enough heat to the stomach, so that it can recommence its ordinary functions. Currently, it is additionally recognized that the enzymes required for the digestion process are only capable of full function at the regular body temperature.

The body's enzymes will lose their ability to operate correctly if the body temperature becomes either overheated or too cool, thus resulting in the inhibition of the digestion process. Try drinking one glass of warm water from thirty minutes to an hour prior to a meal in order to get optimal effects. This will enable you to slake your thirst and ultimately have the water leave your stomach before you engage in your next meal. Next, wrap your day up by drinking one or two glasses of water before going to bed.

Doing this will quench your everyday need for water so that you are finally able to begin feeling healthier and more prepared for the days that lie ahead.

Daily Exercise Routines – Avoid Mental Road
Blocks To Exercise Frequently And Burn Fat

by John Purfield

While it may be the polite thing to tell you that you don’t have to exercise regularly to loose weight and get in shape. Nothing is further from the truth if you lead a sedentary lifestyle. You should try workout 3 to 4 times a week if you want to get in shape and enhance your weight loss efforts. This especially applies if you have a sedentary lifestyle.

Regular exercise is important and the people that make exercise part of their lifestyle can make sure they participate in some type of exercise on a regular basis.

It’s common knowledge that one of the best ways to get into shape is through frequent exercise. However, we all have set backs when it comes to taking the actual time to do it. Lets address a few common mental “road blocks”.

“I have very little time to exercise to get results. It’s not worth it.”

There are many ways to work out for a short duration of time and still get results. Remember, most people don’t have time and they are busy as you are. It comes down to determination and creativity. Of course it also comes down to how intense your workouts are.

Also, to save time you can either work out at home or join a gym. This depends on your life style and what works best for you. Whether you work out at home, at a fitness club, you’ll be exercising on a regular basis. You’ll also be on your way to not only loosing weight, but you’ll get into shape and build muscle mass.

Properly designed workouts of one hour or less will are very effective as compared to poorly designed long workouts. It’s all about knowing what’s best for you.

“You need a lot of money to start your own exercise”

Believe it or not, you can control expenses while still creating an effective work out regimen. While buying weight equipment does cost money, you do not have to weight lift to get in shape. You can start off with exercises that do not require any equipment (such as walking and bodyweight exercises).

For example, walking is very easy to start with. You can walk around your neighborhood three to four times a week for a half hour or hour each time. You will start feeling good about yourself. Plus, you’ll be building your strength and endurance for power walking or running.

Bodyweight exercises are exercises that require very little or no equipment to execute. For example, you can build a strength work out that includes push ups, sit ups and split squats. All you would need is a chair for the split squats.

“Exercise is just not fun and I want to do the right exercises to lose weight.”

The only way you can stick with your exercise program is to like what you’re doing. If you don’t like your exercise routine, change the exercises to something you like.

You can choose for a myriad of low impact such as walking, yoga and swimming. If you’re stuck on an idea that you have to do specific exercises to lose weight, you have to remember that it’s best to choose exercises that fit your lifestyle and interests that will give you optimal results for you.
