The "Health Basics" are obvious and most of us can agree on them.
However (as in much of life), motivation is the key. The popular Nike saying, "Just Do It!" can be the answer to taking that first and most important step.
No matter who we are or where we rate on the BMI, we all can improve our health. Whether it's weight loss or body building, here you will find the most popular and successful diets and exercise programs to raise your level of fitness and live a longer, happier life.
Let's Get Physical
Any fitness program should include exercise routines ("Move It or Lose It!") that last 20 to 30 minutes and are done at least 3 days a week. For more dramatic results increase your program to 45 to 60 minutes, 5 days a week.
The "Building Blocks"
The average woman 25 years of age and older should get 50 grams of protein each day, and the average man 25 years of age and older should get 63 grams of protein each day. Adequate protein is important because it prevents muscle tissue from breaking down and repairs all body tissues such as skin and teeth. To get adequate protein in your diet, make sure you eat 2-3 servings of meat, poultry, fish, dry beans, eggs, and nuts.
Carburate
At least 100 grams of carbohydrates per day are needed to prevent fatigue and dangerous fluid imbalances. To make sure you get enough carbohydrates, eat 6-11 servings of bread, cereal, rice, and pasta.
Fat Can Be Beautiful
Never forget that 30% (no more) of your calories should come from those WONDERFUL unsaturated fats...Olive, Safflower, Grapeseed, Nuts, Avocado, etc,. Limit animal fats! (But, I luvvv pepperoni pizza).
Lease cars take away the worries associated with buying and selling a vehicle (a good lease deal requires almost no down payment).
Whether buying a new car, or a used car, or selling a vehicle; first check KBB (Kelley Blue Book), Black Book, Red Book, or the NADA Used Vehicle Guide.
