Getting Healthy the Easy Way: The Best Strategies for
​Mind and Body


​With so much stress and anxiety in the world, it’s imperative for us to find healthy strategies to incorporate into our lives. From keeping your mental health in good shape to making sure your body is fit and pain-free, there are many ways you can get healthy. The key is to remember that your goals must be sustainable and achievable. If you push too far, you may find it difficult to maintain everything, and that can lead to feelings of stress or depression.
 
In order to make it easier on yourself, think of ways you can incorporate healthy lifestyle choices into your current routine. You don’t have to go big right away; start small with better oral health practices, a better sleep routine, or exercises that help you feel more energized. By making realistic changes to your daily routine, you’ll ensure that your health is well-balanced.
 
Below are things you should think about.
 
Eating Right
 
When it comes to your diet, it’s crucial not to get caught up in fads that could leave you feeling worse than you did before. Remember that what works for one person may not work for another, and focus instead on making healthy decisions. Learn how to read food labels, introduce whole grains into your meal plans, and get rid of or cut back on refined sugars, which can be found in everything from sweets to spaghetti sauce. Talk to your doctor before starting a weight-loss regimen, and make sure you’re getting all the nutrients you need.
 
Take Care of Your Mouth
 
Your oral health is connected to many other parts of your well-being, so it’s imperative to make sure you take good care of your teeth and gums. Periodontal disease can lead to many health issues, including heart disease, and can reduce your quality of life. Keep your mouth healthy by going to the dentist for regular checkups; if you haven’t been to the dentist for a while or if you’re looking for a new one, hop online to find one that meets your needs.
 
Oral health — and overall health in general — is important, and this is especially true for seniors. As such, it’s important to take advantage of your insurance (be it Medicare or otherwise) so you can stay on top of your well-being. However, since Medicare Advantage plans, such as those provided by companies such as UnitedHealthcare, tend to change on an annual basis, it’s important to stay up to date on what your plan covers, whether that’s dental or vision care or access to fitness facilities. You’re paying for this coverage, so make the most of it!
 
Chill
 
Relaxing may not seem like something you need to learn, but for many people, it’s difficult to take a break when there’s so much on their plate. If you have a busy work schedule, a house that needs cleaning, and kids who need your attention, it’s all too easy to neglect your own mental health and take care of everyone else. When things get chaotic, remember to slow down and take a breath. Take 15 minutes to unplug from your devices, go for a walk, or watch an episode of your favorite show. Don’t think of it as wasting time, but rather taking time for yourself.
 
Find a Workout That Works for You
 
You don’t have to jump onto the latest exercise trend in order to be fit. Find a workout that works for your specific needs, keeping in mind that you’ll need to be able to maintain the routine. Keep it fun, and make sure it’s something you actually enjoy doing. This way, you’ll be more likely to stick with it. If you get bored easily, find a workout that can be changed up, like yoga or dance.
 
Getting healthy doesn’t have to be a stressful journey; in fact, it should be as easy as possible so that you can maintain it and meet your goals. Remember that the path to good health is a very personal one and that the things you choose to boost your body and mind are all yours. Make sure they are the best choices for your specific needs.

Balancing Life, Fitness, and Self-Care

​You’re getting your life back on track. You’re determined to finally commit to an exercise routine, fix your diet, and make self-care a priority. But what does that actually look like? If you’ve been running yourself ragged for years, placing career and social ladders over personal well-being, the reset button can be hard to find.


People looking for a change often approach health like it’s all or nothing. As a result, they go all-in on gym memberships, diet plans, and cleanses. But spending all of your time at the gym and in the kitchen leaves little room for anything else. Neglecting hobbies, relationships, and relaxation simply isn’t sustainable over the long term.

For lasting change, you need to balance diet and fitness with other kinds of self-care. Here’s how you can do it.
Schedule ExerciseWhether you go to the gym, head outdoors, or work out in a home gym, it’s smart to schedule workouts into your week. This promotes habit formation as you grow accustomed to working out at the same time on the same days. It also enforces rest days, which are important for recovering and preventing injuries. And for people with addictive personalities, it prevents an exercise habit from morphing into an exercise addiction. This is particularly important for people using exercise to help their recovery from drug and alcohol addiction. While exercise can be a powerful tool for overcoming cravings and negative thinking in recovery, transferring addiction from one habit to another is a dangerous path.
Plan MealsCooking a healthy dinner doesn’t need to be a multi-hour affair. You can eat healthy without sacrificing your evenings when you plan and prep meals in advance. Pick a day of the week for shopping and preparing meals. Cook staples like grains and legumes in advance and chop vegetables and meats into meal-sized portions. Using repeat ingredients saves time and reduces food waste, and it doesn’t have to mean eating the same thing every night. Check out these lunch recipes from MyRecipes for ideas on how to reinvent the same ingredients into several recipes.
Prioritize HobbiesHobbies aren’t just for kids. No matter your age, hobbies offer important benefits like stress relief, increased confidence and self-esteem, and a basis for meaningful relationships with others. But when you’re chasing career success and trying to keep your home life in order, it’s hard to find time for leisure pursuits. Instead of waiting to find time, make it. Reserve one evening or morning each week to pursue your hobbies. Whether you spend an hour reading, getting your hands dirty in the workshop, or tending to your garden, you’ll come out the other side feeling refreshed and more in tune with yourself.
Appreciate DowntimeIn a world where everyone is obsessed with talking about how busy they are, downtime can seem like a frivolous luxury. In reality, stepping away from your mental load is incredibly important for wellness. As Mental Health America points out, skipping out on relaxation leaves you tense and stressed out, which increases the risk of health issues ranging from digestive problems to depression. Spend a little longer in bed on weekend mornings, cuddle with your pets, play with your kids after work, take a walk while the sun is out, and practice meditation when you need deep relaxation.

While these tips are simple, implementing them isn’t easy. It’s hard to make time for yourself in a world that constantly tells you what you can produce is more important than who you are. But when you silence the noise and truly focus on personal wellness and self-care, the results are incredible. If you want to feel more at peace and in tune with yourself, this is advice you can’t afford to ignore.

Boost Your Addiction Recovery with Fitness

5/31/2018

Exercise is something most Americans should be aiming to do more of, but recovering addicts are particularly likely to benefit from a physical fitness routine. Indeed, an increasing number of recovery programs are incorporating exercise and physical fitness into their model, based on extensive academic, scientific, and anecdotal evidence of its power. If you are still skeptical about how useful putting on a pair of sneakers could be in kicking your habit, you need to find out more about the many ways fitness helps with addiction recovery.

Fitness and Emotional Triggers

One of the most important ways that fitness helps with addiction recovery is by alleviating the emotional triggers that often lead to relapse. These include:
Stress - Possibly the most important emotional trigger for relapse. Exercise has been shown to alleviate stress both in the short run (feeling more relaxed after strenuous exercise) and in the long run (your body being able to better process stress signals in general) Loneliness - Addiction can leave people feeling isolated, which is why so many recovery programs focus on group counseling. Group exercise classes, such as this running group for recovering addicts in New York, give you an opportunity to socialize and bond with other people who have the same goals. Boredom - A regular exercise commitment gives you something to fill the empty hours where you may be more likely to relapse.

Fitness and Mental Health

The benefits of exercise on mental health are extensive and well-recorded. According to British mental health charity MQ, people who exercised regularly were likely to experience less depression, anxiety, anger and, of course, stress. Given the high rate of comorbidity between depressive and substance abuse disorders, this could mean an invaluable source of support for a recovering addict who is also dealing with mental health issues.
If this is the case for you, do bear in mind that you may need more than just exercise. Talk to your doctor about any symptoms you have been experiencing. They may recommend medical treatment, and you should not be worried about this. Most psychiatric drugs are not addictive and will not interfere with your recovery.

Fitness and Self-Esteem

Exercise can also help people with self-esteem. It is a great way to set yourself achievable goals and fulfill them, giving you a satisfying sense of progress and performance. Not to mention that regular fitness combined with an overall healthy routine is likely to improve your body image.

Fitness and A Healthy Routine

According to Business Insider, exercise is recognized as a keystone habit. Keystone habits, when successfully implemented, start affecting other areas of your life. People who exercise more often tend to sleep more, eat better and perform better at work.
This is because regular exercise helps you get in the right mindset for an overall healthy routine. This is essential for effective addiction recovery, as it provides a solid foundation for making good choices.
 

The Best Types of Exercise for Recovery

There is no right answer for which exercises are most useful for recovery. Choose anything that makes you sweat a bit (or a lot!) that you enjoy doing and that fits your schedule and budget.
Walking is a great option because most people can go for a walk around their block or in a local park, regardless of fitness level. If you want something more challenging, look for cardio workouts including running, cycling and any form of aerobics. Ideally, you would combine this with strength training.

Though fitness is not a solution to the challenges of addiction recovery, it can be a great source of support or - at the very least - an effective distraction. A fitness routine gives you a set of achievable goals to fulfill, while doing wonders for your physical and mental health. As your fitness improves, you will start to feel more in control of your body and your decisions, which will ultimately help you to stay on the right path.

Things to Know about DOMS

5/21/2018

0 Comments

 
DOMS delayed onset muscle soreness, It’s a pain felt after any extended activity which challenges your body physically in ways outside of what you are used to. These activities can vary for everyone depending on your fitness levels. A walk, run or pushing yourself in one way or another “gym or yard work if you are someone that enjoys it”, But what’s really going on, the reason for this pain you feel normally between 12-72 hours after your activity ?. It is explained as “micro tears” breaking down your muscle fibers forcing the body to rebuild stronger in order to take on the challenges you put it through intentionally or unintentionally.

For the avid gym goers, some believe they didn’t get a good workout if they are not sore but is this true. This depends on your definition of a good workout or your fitness goals. For the regular everyday person who wants to look good and feel better, these rules do not apply. DOMS doesn’t always equate to a great workout and vis versa. Whatever activity it is you will feel DOMS the most during the first couple weeks or months. Going forward your body will become more accustom to the challenges of your everyday life. You can gauge how effective your workout is based on the number of reps you are now able to do or if you increased the weight for a particular movement. Changing something small about the movement can have you feeling sore again, like changing from a back squat to a front squat.

As you get stronger you will feel less sore. If you are anything like me and hate being overly sore especially my hamstring you can try a few or all these suggestion below.

Before working out
Warm up – I normally have clients do 5-10 minutes of jump rope, run on the treadmill or a variety of jumping jack, once the heart is pumping I do a few light movements using the body parts that we are going to target that day. 
Stretch – once blood is flowing to those body parts they will become more elastic, stretching is said to also increase your power.

After workout 
Foam roll – this is just like getting a deep tissue massage with the exception of having a stranger's hands all over you and the price of it. 
Be Active – when you are sore your muscles are tight and want to have blood flowing to those muscles so use those muscles lightly, a mild jog or whatever mild activity you choose.
Adequate rest = Adequate rest

Hot Tips to Stay Fit When It’s Cold Outside

3/7/2018

0 Comments

 



Spring might be the nation’s favorite season, but winter is hands-down the least favorite season among most Americans, according to a recent Gallup poll. It’s no surprise then that the seasons affect more than just our moods. Studies have shown that most people are also less likely to exercise during colder weather. Who can blame them? When there’s ice, snow, or other miserable conditions outside, it usually makes more sense to stay safe and warm indoors.
 
As you might imagine, this proves problematic for many Americans. So-called “holiday weight gain” is real - and it starts even before the winter season begins. But gaining a few extra pounds during the cold months isn’t really that big of a deal, is it? Can’t you just work harder to lose weight once spring arrives?
 
Unfortunately, that logic doesn’t translate into reality for most people. According to TIME Magazine, “New evidence suggests that once you gain weight, your body will work against you to keep it there. And in scientific weight loss studies, only about 25% are successful at keeping the weight off long term.”
 
Physical fitness is important to all of us for maintaining good health, longevity, immunity, and even happiness. It is also a necessity for anyone in addiction recovery. When seeking therapy for substance use, many counselors also recommend pursuing a physical wellness plan to combat not only the physical effects of substance use, but also to promote the general well-being of patients.
 
Luckily, being inside during the winter doesn’t mean you have to completely sacrifice your health and fitness. There are plenty of ways to stay fit year-round, without ever stepping foot outside. Check out these cold weather workout tips for some ways you can stay fit and focused next time you are stuck indoors for your workout:
 
Try new things. As simple as this advice sounds, it’s something that many people often overlook. A willingness to step out of your comfort zone is important. Find what works for you. By trying new things (see above), you’ll eventually find fitness-related activities that you enjoy. Dislike running? Don’t do it. Too impatient for yoga? Skip it. Keep searching for healthy activities that are fun and challenging. Have an accountability buddy. This could be a friend, relative, or coworker. You could meet up to work out together each week, weather permitting. Even if you can’t meet in person, you can still call, text, email, or use social media to check in with each other on workout days. Modern technology makes it easy to hold yourself and others accountable for workouts. Be patient with yourself. Fitness takes time. It is a long-term process, so don’t get frustrated if you don’t see immediate results. Just take small actions each day and listen to your body. If anything pinches, burns, or pops, ease your intensity. Drink plenty of water and take breaks when you need them. This prevents burnout or injury. Skip the gym. (Yes, you read that right.) Instead of paying for an expensive gym membership, especially when it’s cold and you don’t feel like leaving the house, why not create a home gym? Start with a few small weights, resistance bands or a pull-up bar. All you’ll need are a good pair of tennis shoes and an upbeat music playlist, and you’ll be all set for working out year-round!  
You don’t have to approach winter with the same level of dread that you typically reserve for Mondays. By following the advice listed here, you can maintain a healthy routine any time of the year. Not only will this help you stay fit and keep your immune system strong, but it could also help you fight off seasonal affective disorder. This news is truly something to be happy about.

The Truth Behind, Low Fat and Fat Free Labels

7/6/2015

0 Comments

 
Food is also a business. So, why is this subject mentioned in here? That’s because even if there are honest companies which are committed to consumer’s health and well-being, the market is still packed with companies which are more focused on selling you with their products. It only means that these companies will do whatever it takes just to catch your attention and persuade you that their products are smart choices.

The Truth about Food Labels – Low-Fat and Fat-Free

 As a consumer, you want to buy products that are healthy. Hence, it has become a habit for most consumers to check an item’s label before deciding whether it should be on their cart or not. However, the practices in the market have drastically changed. The practice of using labels such as reduced fat to help consumers identify healthy choices from those that are not are now only being taken advantage into to let people believe that a product is a healthy option.

Reduced fat, low sodium, low-fat and fat-free are just among the many labels that food markers use to let the consumers believe that their products are healthy choices. But checking on these products and its labels, what does such claims truly mean?

Low-Fat and Fat Free Claims

Back then, there was no such thing as low fat or fat free. But as centuries pass, such terms were created, and now consumers are recommended to consume food items with such label. There is a reason why food makers are encouraging consumers to consume these products. The thing is, is the reason truly in favor for the consumers or to them?

If it can be answered, how may lab or tests did these products underwent before they are labeled fat-free or low-fat? Are the ingredients still in their purest form? These are just among the questions has that consumers has regarding this concern.

What it Means to be Labeled with Fat-Free and Low Fat

A product can only be labeled as fat-free if it contains less than five grams of fat/serving. For products to be labeled with low-fat, it must only have three grams or even less fat/serving. But even if these products are labeled with these, it still does not mean that they are low calorie or healthy. In fact, many food items labeled with low-fat are still containing high amount of sugar and may also have high amount of calories. Those fat-free foods are also typically taste-free. But the drastic part is that food makers are also adding sugar, salt, thickeners and flour to these products, which adds the caloric content.

There are free-foods as well that are loaded with chemicals that can be bad for consumers’ health. Fillers and chemicals are typically added to make up for the lack of nutrients, taste, palatability and texture. Consider fat-free cookies. Some of these cookies contain more sweeteners, like sugar, compared to cookies containing one or two grams of fat. The most important truth you must know about these product is they do not really help in losing weight. Instead of losing weight, the effects you will achieve later on is gain more weight.

All these only lead to one thing. If you truly want to benefit from weight loss effects these products are claimed to deliver, you must start consuming real healthy products and foods that are in its purest form.

Misleading Nutrition Labels

6/29/2015

Whenever you are grocery shopping, what basis do you use when purchasing items? Do you always base your choices on the nutrition labels of the products? Perhaps, you do so that it can guide you on which among your choices are much healthier. If you are among those health-conscious people, you may have done the same thing whenever you are grocery shopping. But, do these nutritional labels truly mean what it displays?

Even the most conscientious label-readers can be misled by what is written on these labels. And with all the marketing that companies do, you never know which label claims is really true.

There is one thing you need to know about these nutritional labels. Terms like all-natural or fat-free are now often slapped on food items even if the products may not be truly healthy at all. Hence, it becomes more important for consumers today to be aware of these hype and know how they can better smarter choices when grocery shopping.

All-Natural Label

All-natural products are a smart choice for food items. So when you see this on nutritional labels, you will instantly get the idea that the product is also a smart and healthy option. Do not be fooled since all-natural does not really mean that much. Instead, you need to be aware that food items labeled with natural may actually mean that it contains food preservatives or sodium-injected. There are some natural products that contain high level of fructose corn syrup. Companies manufacturing products containing this would claim that it is healthy since it came from corn. Again, do not be fooled.

Multi-grain Label

Crackers and bread are snack food items that will always be present in most consumer’s grocery list. And as a smart shopper, you will look for these items that are labeled multigrain. But no, you should not and instead, you need to look for products labeled with 100% whole wheat or whole grain. Whole grains contain more fiber together with other nutrients compared to those that are refined. Products that have been refined only means that it is already stripped away with the healthiest part of the grain.

No Sugar Added Label

It is only normal for people to be concerned about carbohydrates and calories. In result, you only purchase food items that come with a no sugar added label. But you need to be aware that even fruits, milk, vegetables and cereals naturally have sugar. Even those products labeled with no sugar added still contain ingredients such as maltodextrin, which is a carbohydrate. Carbs, as described are simple sugars or can also be more complex starches, which raises blood sugar. Therefore, the label no sugar added does not necessarily mean that food items are free of carbohydrates or calorie.

Sugar Free Label

Products with sugar free labels do not mean that it contain less calories than its regular version. In fact, these products may even contain more! Products that are labeled with this still contain about less than point five grams of sugar per serving. But these products may still contain carbohydrates and calories obtained from other similar sources. At most these food items have sugar alcohols, which can lead to diarrhea. Hence, it is suggested that you do not consume products with this in just one sitting.

There are more misleading nutritional labels people are always encountering in the supermarket. That is why it is so essential for you not just to be aware of it, but also to determine which truly the better choices among those products are.

Metabolism: How It Is Related to Fitness and Age?

6/22/2015

0 Comments

 
Metabolism is defined as the set of chemical reactions involved in sustaining the living state of the organism and the cells. It is an enzyme-catalyzed reaction which enables the organisms to reproduce and grow, sustain their structures, as well as respond to the environment.   It is divided in two categories: catabolism and anabolism. Catabolism refers to the breaking down of the organic matter  to harvest energy through cellular respiration and anabolism, which  refers to the synthesis of the needed compounds of the cells such as nucleic acids and proteins.

Metabolism is closely related to nutrition and the availability of nutrients. Bio-energetics describes the metabolic or biochemical pathways in which the cell obtains energy and the formation of energy is one of the essential components of metabolism.

The chemical reactions of metabolism are arranged into metabolic pathways, wherein a chemical is changed into another chemical through a sequence of enzymes. Enzymes are important in metabolism, since they enable organisms to initiate reactions that need energy, by coupling them to reactions which release energy. Enzymes serve as catalyst, which allow reactions to occur in rapid phase as well as regulating metabolic pathways due to changes in the environment of the cells.

The term metabolism also refers to the burning of calories to provide energy needed by your body. The three ways that can burn calories include:

  1. The resting metabolic rate (RMR). This is the 75% of the burned energy daily. RMR is the calories burned during rest.
  2. The thermic effect of food (TEF): This refers to the over 10% of the used energy every day.
  3. The physical activity energy expenditure (PAEE): This accounts to the burned energy while doing any activities or while working out.

The PAEE is affected by your activity every day. The more fitness activity you do, the more calories your burned. Increasing the calories you burned through PAEE is one way of speeding up your fitness. If you want to speed up your metabolism, you must do fitness activities that drain glucose instead of fatty acids. Any high-intensity workout will also increase metabolism for a longer time after doing fitness activities.

Does Metabolism Decrease with Age?

The gain of weight as we age is due to the decrease in the calories burned by our body. Low level of physically fitness activity plays an important role in the decreased in the expenditure of energy as well as decline in the metabolic rate due to age. Basal metabolic rate, which makes up 50-70% of TEE, decreases to 1-2% every year.  As the person gets old, his or her energy expenditure also decreases. The declined in the expenditure of energy is due to increase mass of fats and decreased mass of muscles.

In order to prevent  declined metabolic rate and age-related weight gain, you must integrate a fitness program including muscle building and strength training to have a stable muscle mass that is metabolically active, as well as cardiovascular physical activity to avoid increased mass of fats and  maintain a high level of burning energy.

WHY WOMEN SHOULD NOT BE AFRAID OF GROWING “BIG”?

6/15/2015

1 Comment

 
It is a well acknowledged fact that a superbly muscled male, with a toned body to boot, might be considered the very epitome of masculine physique, and is even perceived as such, by both male and female alike. Equally true is the fact that overly muscular bodied females lose much of their femininity not only in the eyes of males but also of fellow females. While these commonly held beliefs on either side of the gender divide cannot be doubted or found fault with, the tendency of women at times to overdo or over express their apprehensions, results in misplaced assumptions and insinuations.

The presence of muscles in the female body is not detrimental to their femininity nor takes away from their soft looks or glamor in any way. The world of tennis provides enough evidence of female players who not only have the muscles in adequate measure where they need it most to pursue their sports, but at the same time have the bodily wherewithal to walk down any ramp without batting an eyelid. Sometimes these players can even put paid to the efforts of professional models to steal the limelight in their presence.

 So coming back to the central question of why women should be afraid of growing big - meaning having more muscles on their bodies? As a general reply, substantiated with the examples narrated above, the answer pure and simply is that they need not be afraid at all. Having said that, one would, however, hasten to add that most normal females are really not going to grow that big, and the scientific reason for this is that most females do not have that much of testosterone in their bodies to make them look like a muscled guy after putting in the same amount of weight training and exercise.

 Another related point to bear in mind is the fact that females typically do develop muscles at about half the rate of men. This again further proves that a female should not be concerned about the thought that she may suddenly end up with Hercules type muscles just by getting into weight training. To further assuage the fears of females about getting “big” let it be said that it is a fact, and also well supported by statistics, for both men and women, the same general principles apply for weight training, namely: heavy lifting, a proper diet, and enough rest to prevent over straining.

 Summarizing therefore, any doubts and misconceptions in the common female’s mind about growing “big” and muscular and thereby losing femininity through weight training should be laid to rest. Also, any aspersions that a female needs special circumstances for her own training are a myth. Purely because a female trains in the same way as a male, does not mean she ends up looking like a muscular male. The general principles of training apply equally to both sexes, but the essential differentiators between the sexes is the levels of testosterone in their bodies. This being much lower amongst females tempers the development of muscles in them, and thereby forever crashing a myth amongst many about the fear of growing “big”.
