5) Track Your Estimations. Instead of basing your exercise success solely on weight loss, try keeping a soft measuring tape handy and tracking changes in both midsection and hip size – whether they be muscle gain or inch loss. You might gain muscle but lose inches at the same time!
- Record Your Estimates. As you become more adept at managing up, seeing your progress can boost your confidence.
- Measure your neck, arms and lower legs as well.
6) Learn. If your goal is to become healthier, learning how to eat healthily should be priority number one. Don’t fall prey to “dieting”, as eventually this can backfire on you and leave you struggling indefinitely. Weight Watchers and similar services may assist in this regard; but for optimal success it would be more useful for you to create a lifestyle change while employing common sense in doing so.
7) Drink Water!Drink Water! Water is essential for your physical well-being. Remember to bring water with you on exercise meetings, and after intense exercises don’t drink excessive quantities as your body releases salt through sweat – an excess amount can assist with flushing out anything remaining from the system. Sports drinks may be beneficial during intense exercises; just remember their sugar content may hinder progress towards fitness.
- Drink enough water to replenish what has been lost from sweat. Your needs will vary based on factors like body weight, environment and effort level; insufficient hydration could negatively impact weight reduction goals by slowing progress, increasing muscle tears risk and leaving you feeling depleted of energy. For best results avoid caffeine and soft drink beverages for optimal results.
8) Stay Spurred. As you gain more fitness and build up your solidarity, exercises may become simpler over time. Don’t fall into the habit of repeating routine workouts – instead try mixing things up by trying something new when your current program becomes monotonous.
