Staying in shape is an excellent way to relax yourself, burn some excess body fat and also improve your cardiovascular health. Experts says you do not need rigorous exercise to stay healthy.
Go for a walk. Take a walk round your neighbourhood and admire the sights and sounds. Choose a pace that you are comfortable with and walk a distant you comfortable with. Do not go over board. If you start feeling a strain on your muscle it is time to stop and take a rest. Do not worry, when you do this like 5 times you will get used to it. It will be time to either increase your pace or the distance!
Eating that extra would mean you have more than your body needs. If you consume more than your body needs each day, your body stores up the excess as fat. If you have a desk job, that excess fat is unnecessary since you are sitting from 8 am till 5 pm everyday, and more than 70 % take their meals while on the job. You eating and not expending the calories, storing up much more than your body requirements.
Start seeing the food you eat as a source of sustenance and not a substance of entertainment to show wealth, or a substance to alleviate boredom. Consciously evaluate your food in terms of what it can do to keep your body healthy. Every time you want to eat ask yourself if what you want to put in your mouth is good for you.
Try stretching every morning. Stretching releases your muscles, and cranks and relaxes you. Here is a routine you can work on in the morning when you get off your bed.
- Take a straight backed chair, sit with your knees together ans place your foot firmly on the floor.
- Interlock your fingers and place them over your knees
- Ensuring your back is straight, raise your hands above your head with your fingers still interlocked, lean to the left and stretch counting to 10.
- Repeat same thing for your right side.
