Fitness Nutrition Plan
This is not for the die hard weight gainer, but there's some very useful information in here. Maybe for a family member like your mom or dad or someone like your new girl friend you want to impress with great nutritional knowledge or something like that.
Why Most Diets Fail! Most diets fail because they are just that – DIETS! These same diets tend to reduce calorie intake for far too long which can result in a slower metabolism. You may lose some w eight, but once the d iet stops, you gain it back rapidly due to a slower metabolic rate. The only successful way to l ose
w eight and keep it off permanently is to eat sensibly and make positive lifestyle changes, such as:
1. Eat 5 or 6 small, low fat meals throughout the day for improved metabolism and digestion. These small and frequent meals will also keep your energy levels running high.
2. Eat 5 to 9 servings of fresh fruits and vegetables daily.
3. Increase your fiber intake to 20-30 grams a day.
4.
Activate your metabolism early in the day with a healthy, wholesome breakfast.
5. Chew your food slowly and drink water before meals.
6. Drink 8-12 glasses of purified or distilled water everyday.
7. Eat your meals in a relaxed and quite environment. Never eat standing up.
8. Exercise 3-4 times a week for at least 30 minutes. Even minimal amounts of exercise will help keep you feeling great while burning additional calories. Walking, bicycling and swimming are the best.
9. Be sure to take to take a good multiple vitamin/mineral supplement for optimal health.
10. Don’t take yourself too seriously. Keep a good attitude and a sense of humor every day!
