Daily tip #46| Eat right!

1. You generally want to eat at least 3 to 4 times per day. Also, try not to snack in between meals.

 



2. For those of you who love to snack between meals, I recommend drinking a cup or two of water - your snacking needs will be gone!

3. You want to not down everything in one sitting. a big meal spikes the sugar in your blood, which triggers an insulin reaction which then converts the temporary surpulus to fat. Therefor, you get hungry sooner than you should.

4. Spreading the same number of calories over several smaller meals ( 3 to 5, instead of 2 to 3) gives you a better chance of using the calories for energy rather than turning them to fat

I'm going to begin following this short method of tipping, the long articles gave me a lot, but this blog isn't for such things, I'll make another one for full articles if the need ever arises.

Have a great friday everyone! Drink water, otherwise tomorrow's morning won't be as pleasant as you wish!

Daily tip #43| Clearing it up 101

Nutrition is the key for the lock of a great body and mind, however, I bet you are thoroughly confused.


The web is STUFFED with conflicting advice on how to properly nutriate yourself. When, how much and what to eat?


Do not just take one's word for how you should eat - there is no "set" meal plan. Proper nutrition depends on what you want to be and your goals. Great nutrition is VERY important, and, it's easy. What? Eating no fries, no chips, just grass 6 times a day is easy?!


It is. And it's not what others make it out to be. The difference in the meal plan for a professional body builder, and someone obese who just wants to lose weight are immensely different.
In fact, if you're just trying to lose weight - it's immensely easier! You might not even have to be 'completely' healthy in terms of food choice. For example, the 3 times a day, or the swap meal plan is usually enough to shed off some serious weight

Don't stress it. And don't go into extremes - it can cause lifelasting mental and physical issues, which you can perfectly do without.


For most, the substitution or the 3 per day will be enough, they might or might not be small modifications (Don't be kidding me, anyone can commit to the substition plan!) but it's all you really need to lose weight!



Have a nice week, and see you on the next page!

Daily tip #29| Nutrition 101

Lately I've been getting into some intermediate stuff, I don't see many people actually reading the article, so let's start keeping it short, and novice-based, most of the days.

What might be your daily meal plan? Is it.... 3 to 6 fast food meals per week? Lots of fried foods? Lots of snack foods? Candy, cookies, sweets? Barely any vegitables? Almost no fruit, no fiber and lots of salt? Is that atleast half of you? You're doing it wrong.

If you're eating like this, you might not realise how much you could accomplish with a simple change.. If you added 30 pounds over the last 5 years, it is only because you ate 57 calories per day too much. Yep. 57, that is nothing! It actually doesn't take much to change the whole situation around, it is very easy, and I really thought everyone knew this! 

So.. What do you do? You substitute. But how? You choose two meals that you eat often, and substitute them with a healthy solution! Yes, just two. If you drink a lot of coke, substitute it with water. If you have fried foods often, eat baked potatoes. That's it. Two meals, and the weight will start shedding off! It really is that simple. None of these sacrifices are too great to cause any deprivation, or any hard thinking to do - yet, it is a very powerful method. And it will work, 100%.

I'll be starting these nutrition dailies, after all, nutrition is key to losing weight and gaining muscle. I'll be progressively getting into more advanced stuff each day. I'm hoping this short format will make you, the visitor, actually read what I write.

And yes! Drink a lot of water, not underestimate sleeping properly, stop making common mistakes and you'll be much happier!
