Fitness Tips

December 09-Exercise in the morning!

When you exercise early in the morning, it jump starts your metabolism and keeps it revved up for hours, sometimes up to 24 hours! That means you're burning more calories all day long just because you exercised in the morning. Also, in the morning you have an increased intake of oxygen and circulation of blood in your body, you'll stay energized for the whole day and get your workout out of the way to leave you stress-free and able to conquer the day.

Research has proven that people who exercise in the mornings tend to be the ones most consistent in their fitness regimes and diets.

If you aren't quite seeing the results you've expected, try this change in your routine and see how the consistency helps you weigh less, eat better, sleep better, and overall have better days.

There is NO SUCH THING as spot reduction.  I know, it's hard to believe.  Don't take my word for it - Wikipedia says....

"Spot reduction is the reduction of fat from a specific area of the body. It is a common misconception (the spot reduction myth) that it is possible to achieve spot reduction through exercise of specific muscles in the desired area, such as exercising the abdominal muscles in an effort to lose weight in or around one's midsection. Advertisers sometimes play on this misconception when advertising exercise-related products.

In actuality, fat is burned from body areas in genetically pre-determined patterns that have no relationship to the muscles being exercised. For men, lower back fat is generally the last to be burned, with the lower legs second last; for women, it is generally the thighs and buttocks."
