In the Power Tools to Success podcast episode, we spoke to Ronald Abvajee, a health and fitness expert, to ask how you can transform your health and fitness in just ten days. The subject of health and fitness is not an easy one, there is too much conflicting advice for diet and so is exercise programs. In life you are successful when you do what you love and enjoy. The strategies we share with you are intended to help you start fitness and exercise from a place of enjoyment. Only after you begin to enjoy physical activity and exercise can you start serious exercise programs. The truth is, there are simple ways to transform your health and fitness that you can start using today, right away. Here are some of them:
- Don’t eat for pleasure, eat for sustenance. Eating for pleasure leads you to eat not only unhealthy meals but larger meals as well. So try to eat for energy so you can get on with your day and get your work done every day.
- Get up from the sofa every day, walk, walk with your children, or walk your dogs or walk with your partner. A simple walk every day can lead to a calorie burn of up to 250 and help you reach your health and fitness goals. or run or play touch rugby. Whatever gets you off the couch and physical, do it. The funnier, the better.
- Avoid sugary drinks. Rather, drink raw fruits. Invest in a juicer. Drink lots of water too.
- Vegetarians are more likely to lose weight than meat eaters. You don’t have to become a vegetarian, but you can go without meat for a week or two and see if doing so helps with your weight. For most people, it helps to go a few days without eating meat in their diet. When they don’t eat meat, most people eat less than normal. This can help a lot in reaching your weight loss goal.
The above strategies will help you improve your health and fitness in as little as ten days. Once you’re motivated enough, you can start a formal exercise and diet program to help you reach your fitness goals.
