Getting outside and enjoying nature can pose a challenge when the wind-chill is at single digits or lower! The daily jog is refreshing indeed. If you’re like me you might find it way easier to get some exercise indoors on these freezing cold winter days. Isn’t it so much nicer to flip on the DVD player and enjoy a favorite comedy while you burn away those holiday calories?

Many of us face the challenge of moving our running and exercise time indoors from November to April. Joining a gym or health club is one option. Growing numbers of avid health enthusiasts are opting to put low impact exercise equipment right in their homes. They are avoiding the expense of that health club membership. No more waiting to get on your favorite rowing machine. Or that treadmill with the clear view of the TV screen.

If you’re like me you might prefer working out before the rest of the family wakes up. Those early morning sessions on the TreadClimber are an excellent way to get your heart pumping and burn off a ton of calories! All before you even step outside!

Enjoy a nice warm cup of your favorite coffee or tea and then hit the rowing machine for 15 minutes. Jump rope or work out with your exercise ball for a few minutes. They say that ab exercises done on the ball are more effective!

The possibilities are practically endless. And you don’t even have to get out and brave the cold. Make this your best year ever and invest in some simple low impact exercise equipment for your home. You can easily turn that unused corner of your basement into your very own fitness center!

Health experts agree – the quickest way to lose weight – and keep it off – is with daily exercise and healthy eating. Start getting in shape fast and enjoy the benefits of a healthier, sexier body!

Physical Fitness helps you have more fun - Enjoy Life more!

Whatever you desire – in terms of better health and fitness – can happen if you make a plan and start taking action! Any action.

Look at where you are right now and decide what you want to change. Start with a plan to create better habits. Write your goal – and your plan on paper. Some people have found a fitness journal helpful. Whatever form you decide on – write down your goals and the plan to achieve them. Then start taking action – immediately!

Aim high – shoot for the moon. If you miss, at least you’ll be better off than you were before you started. Who cares about being perfect? Write down the change you want to make. Then tell someone – don’t keep it a secret.

Build your own little support group. Maybe even try hanging around people who have already achieved better fitness. They understand and are the most likely to offer positive support. Don’t listen to anyone who offers negative feedback. Thanks them and then move on to someone who is more supportive!

Make small, manageable changes in your daily diet and exercise habits. Realistic changes that you can do now. Don’t commit to an unrealistic exercise plan; just do what you truly know you can do, like walking 20 minutes every day at lunch, or even three days a week. Include more vegetables and fruits in your daily diet. Cut back on refined sugars, soda and junk food. Small changes practiced daily will lead to big results!

Go for at least 30 minutes of cardio 6 days a week. As you get more comfortable – increase your pace and your time to 45 minutes or an hour. Build endurance. Interval training is also a great way to burn more calories. If you want to add some ab exercises in after the cardio, that’s great, but be sure to work your whole body.

You can enjoy better fitness and health in the coming year and for years to follow! If weight loss is one of your goals – you can exercise and lose weight fast! Start getting in shape and you’re on the road to better fitness and a whole better outlook on life! Physical fitness makes life more fun!

If you’ve not been physically active in a while, you may be wondering how to get started again. Lace up those sneakers and find some motivating ideas here.

Here are some tips to help get you started:

• Look for opportunities to reduce sedentary time and to increase active time. For example, instead of watching TV, try taking a walk after dinner.
• Set aside specific times for physical activity in your schedule to make it part of your daily or weekly routine.
• Start with activities, locations, and times you enjoy. For example, some people might like walking in their neighborhood in the mornings; others might prefer an exercise class at a health club after work.
• Try activities with friends or family members to help with motivation and mutual encouragement.
• Start slowly and work your way up to more physically challenging activities. For many people, walking is a particularly good place to begin.
• When necessary, break up your daily activity goal into smaller amounts of time. For example, you could break the 30-minute a day recommendation into three 10-minute sessions or two 15-minute sessions. Just make sure the shorter sessions are at least 10 minutes long.

For many people, walking offers a great way to become more active.

The absolute Quickest way to lose weight – and keep it off requires two simple habits. Practice these habits daily for six weeks and you’ll lose weight and be on the road to much better health. Simple changes produce incredible results.

Habit 1.  Exercise.  Plenty of vigorous exercise. Get your heart pumping. Running, Walking (fast), swimming, basketball, tennis, soccer, hockey. And – if you are like the millions who’d rather workout in the comfort of their homes- get some home exercise equipment. The BowFlex TreadClimber has helped millions of people lose weight, feel better, and look much better. All without leaving the house!

Habit 2. Eating Healthy. This is where some people face real challenges. I find it so easy to stop by the local fat-food drive-thru and grab a bite to eat. I almost always end up getting the little items I enjoy. Which just so happen to contain too much unhealthy fat.

Forget the fast-food jungle. Save your money and prepare your own, simple and nutritious meals. Load up on raw fruits and vegetables. Enjoy healthy fats. Get some protein early in the day! And then again at lunch time or mid afternoon. Don’t eat anything after 7:00Pm at night. If you do – make it something very low calorie – like celery or plain,  air-popped popcorn!

These two habits – when practiced daily are the quickest way to lose weight. There are so many options for lasting, natural healthy weight loss. Those who get the best results find ways to make their workouts fun. Pop a funny movie in while you burn more calories on your TreadClimber. Enjoy a brisk walk with a favorite friend.  Play some basketball or tennis with friends!

The best way to lose belly fat is burn it off. Massive amounts of calorie burning – over time – will chip away at that unhealthy fat which seem to congregate around our mid-sections.  Try to get a little exercise each day. At least 20 minutes of vigorous exercise. If you are having fun – twenty minutes won’t be enough. You’ll want to play longer! Have fun! You are on your way to looking better and feeling great! More energized!

Cut out the unhealthy fats. Pass on the sweets and donuts. Get your carbs in the form of whole grains. Load up on fruits and more vegetables. Toss a little container of mixed veggies in your bag before you leave each day! Bring a banana and an apple. Keep a bowl of fresh fruit on the table! Throw out – or hide – your candy stash!

Remember – the quickest way to lose weight and keep it off is exercise and eating healthy!

The benefits of building muscle are plentiful – looking better, feeling better,  losing weight, and the list goes on:

• Pleasure. People often really enjoy strength-training exercises; they find them less taxing than aerobic workouts and love the results.
• Health and fitness benefits. Strength training increases muscle mass and bone density. It makes you feel strong and energized, alleviates stress and depression, and gives you a better night’s sleep. And it can help prevent the onset of certain chronic diseases or ease their symptoms.
• Improvements in appearance. Lifting weights firms the body, trims fat, and can boost metabolism by as much as 15%, which helps with weight control.
• Social opportunities. Exercising with friends or family gives you a chance to visit and chat while you work out.
• Thrills. People who start strength training later in life often find that they are willing and able to try new, exciting activities, such as parasailing, windsurfing, or kayaking.

If you are like me and just wnat to lose a few pounds before this year goes into the record books – get up now and get started. Start a daily exercise routine. Start working with weights every other day. Get some cardio in most days of the week.

If you’ve been out of practice for a while or are looking for an easy way to start getting in shape fast – try walking. Save your knees and enjoy the many benefits of low impact exercise!

Live Healthy - Be Happy

One of the many blessings of living in Kansas has to be that we get to experience and savor all four seasons. For almost nine months of the year we can enjoy the opportunity to have fun outdoors without the need to dress with multiple layers of clothing. From late April thru early October many a Midwesterner can be spotted wearing shorts during the daylight hours.

And then comes winter. Late Autumn and early Winter are nice. Until it snows or the temperature dips below 40 degrees. Don’t get me wrong – please – Winter is such a beautiful time of year.

For about two weeks.

Once the hope of a white Christmas is past and we embark upon a New Year many people in the Midwest are ready for Spring. More than once during a winter snowstorm I’ve found myself wondering just why in the Sam Hill  do I remain in this part of the country.

I mean isn’t that why Miami and Fort Lauderdale are such popular destinations?  Why else are so many daily flights to Cancun filled with loads of eager tourists ready for some fun in the nice, warm sun?

Perhaps the single greatest hardship of winter – other than driving thru the snow in a two-wheel drive Saturn – is trying to get outside and play. For those of us who aren’t into Hockey or ice-fishing getting any outdoor fun and exercise is just plain challenging.

Do you have a basement or an extra bedroom that you can convert into your very own fitness center? Get some weights and a jump rope, maybe a rowing machine. Have your very own little entertainment center maybe – complete with some of your favorite exercise videos and music to inspire or get you moving!

If you want fast results – burning more calories in less time. If want to make the most of your time.  If you want results – fast!  You’ll be glad you invested in the most efficient, fat burning, muscle building home fitness equipment available anywhere -  Get your Bowflex® TreadClimber® cardio machine today.

Getting in shape fast is a realistic goal if you work out a little each day and enjoy healthy eating habits! Health experts and fitness gurus alike agree that the quickest way to lose weight is getting plenty of exercise and eating healthy!

Whether you want to lose ten pounds ( or the 20 I hope to shed ) or just get in better shape – if you keep a positive attitude and know that you can reach your desired goal – you most likely will. I think it was Henry Ford who said – “If you think you can or think you can’t – you’re right”. Create a vision of your goal – visualize yourself wearing a new, smaller size before Labor Day. Or, at least before the Holidays are upon us.

Then set out and take action. Start small if you like. Just start! Take at least a little action in the direction of your goal each day.

Start with a 10 minute walk. When the famous inspirational speaker – Zig Ziglar – started jogging, his first day he went a hundred yards. Everyone has to start somewhere – just like Zig did. Before too long he was jogging around the block. And then a mile. And then two.

Gradually increase your time and your pace. Walk a little farther and a little faster each day. When you start to feel comfortable – start jogging. Again, take it slow – and don’t try to go too far too fast. I met an incredible, happy women who lost over a hundred pounds just walking every day and eating sensibly. It took her a year and a half – but she stuck with her daily walk and succeeded!

Add some variety to your plan – try new sports. Take a completely different route next time you jog or head out for a long walk. It will keep your mind sharp and prevent you from getting into a rut. A variety of sports and exercise routines will help you maintain a better balanced level of fitness. Work your legs harder one day and your arms the next.

Don’t look back – stay focused on making the best of today! Enjoying right now! Or, at least, making the best of whatever life brings your way!

If you want a healthier, slimmer body – the quickest way to lose weight is start getting in shape fast!
