You are about to discover the best ways to look better, to feel healthier, and to have more energy and vitality in your life. Better yet, you can do all this without fancy diet fads, crazy weight loss pills and potions and strange looking exercise machines.
You see, health and fitness for the long haul can really only be based on one thing. Good fundemental principals that have stood the test of time and trial are what we write about here at Womens Fitness Tips. It may not involve the ever-appealing fly by night concoctions, or the “lose ten pounds overnight” scheme, but we promise that in the pages that follow, there will be a wealth of fitness information and ideas that will work well if you apply them.
It’s no secret, today’s society is more overweight and out of shape and downright unhealthy than nearly any generation before us. The reasons are simple and straight to the point for most of us. It’s a matter of our lifestyles, the foods we eat and the lack of much physical activity. Excuses about of course, but some are really legitimate. Lack of time, lack of energy, poor motivation, just a one of other things to do…it’s all there.
For most women, other responsibilities often take priority over health and wellness, and this is a huge problem. It’s time to change the way we look at staying in shape. Yes, it’s great to look good, but that could best be described as a by-product of a healthy lifestyle. Feeling better, being more productive, and being legitimately healthier is the real payoff.
Getting fit and staying healthy is so hard for most people, but the secret lies in making gradual changes to your lifestyle and habits. Afterall, get out of shape didn’t happen overnight…getting in good health won’t happen in a day or week, but over time, you can realize it’s benefits.
The road to fitness and health is forged by habits. The habit of eating right and avoiding the bad foods. The habit of working out regularly and staying active with physical action that you actually enjoy. It means doing these things consistently and often enough to make them…you guessed it…habitual.
Research shows that if you can maintain a new routine long enough, usually around 21 days to one month, you can literally create new positive habits in your life. This should be exciting news. Bad choices that got us in the poor conidtion in the first place, that may have been affecting us for years can literally be wiped away in less than 30 days!
The biggest decision you’ll have to make in all of this is to simply get started. And if you’ve tried “it all” before, take heart…the key to success in anything is simply persistence. You may stumble now and then. You may even fall. But in the end if you keep trying despite all the challenges, you will surely succeed in reaching your goal of better health.
The most important thing you can do right now is to write down some small goals, some simple activities that you’ll put into affect by tomorrow. Make a choice to eat a better meal for lunch…have a good salad instead of a burger with cheese on it. Go for a walk in the morning or in the evening when you have time…get moving…do anything to get your engine started! Little by little you can add on this routine and let it spread throughout your days, weeks, months and years…and it’s painless if you do it gradually.
