Fear of where to start
It’s time to think about how you tackle your health journey.
Many people have had some setbacks with their health during these Covid lockdown times – so here’s some ways to have a think about a sensible way of going about it.
Please do not get hijacked with ‘challenges’ that are generic.
HOW TO PLAN:
1. All about me:
Filter your own information, don’t get caught up in everyone else’s journey and plans. Master your own pan, what’s best for you in your situation.
2. Fat loss foods:
There are NO fat loss properties – it’s all clickbait!
All foods have calories and if you eat too much you will store them. Even broccoli, but you’ll never over eat broccoli, or chicken breast as certain foods that balance your hunger, stabilize your energy and reduce cravings. Some are nice and some are not.
Eat foods that are fat loss (wholefoods), foods that you like, and don’t eat brussels sprouts if you don’t like them. This will cause you to eat other foods that increase your calories way too much.
3. Efficient exercise:
Weight training, endurance, Crossfit, sprints, yoga – it’s about what you enjoy doing so you do enough of it.
If you sign up to a style of training you don’t really enjoy, how long do you think you’ll last doing it. If you think you have to run to be fit, this is misinformation, you can become fit and active with weight training, cycling, swimming, yoga or walking etc, because it’s what you enjoy and you do often. Movement of any kind is good for us and a variety is well rewarded – don’t fall into a certain stigma.
4. Lifestyle:
Morning/evening, lots of meals/not many meals, keto/paleo, some people fast/some eat more.
There is NOT ONE way to burn fat, it’s how to respond to your life.
5. Fat loss anywhere:
Not all about organic/wild caught products, about if Splenda is poisoning you or if you drink alcohol.
Think more in the mindset of not having it all the time, try more often than not, have the alcohol now and again, try more wholefoods in your diet. You can eat out – so long as you manage it.
As soon as you are told what you can or can’t have, for many they would relate to that unease, like we experienced by having a ‘lockdown’ in the Covid times. It places you into a different mindset and it doesn’t always work well.
You are unique.
