Reduce Your Stress and Your Weight

Many Americas suffer from too much stress in their lives. There are many products that claim to help in lowering stress levels; however, many of them just mask the symptoms of stress without getting rid of the cause. A large portion of Americans suffer from anxiety and stress due to being overweight. In addition to the increased health problems that people suffer who are overweight, the addition of stress can cause even more illnesses. Heart disease, ulcers, indigestion, and diabetes are all inflamed by both obesity and stress. Luckily there is a cure all for both weight loss and stress.

Exercise is the solution for lowering your weight and for lowering the amounts of stress that you have in your everyday life. Studies have shown that those who workout at least three times a week have much lower stress levels, while their happiness goes up. Scientist believe that the reduction of stress through exercise comes from our built in flight-or-fight response.

When we encounter stressful situations in our daily life, our natural instincts kick in our fight-or-flight response. We either want to fight our way out of a stressful situation or we want to just get away from it. The problem is that often times neither of those solutions work in modern situations. Fighting a stressful situation mostly just makes the situation even worse; while if you flee from a situation, the situation is often unresolved and is just waiting for you when you return to your normal life. As modern people we often just have to deal with the situation with letting our fight-or-flight responses taking over. Yet, even if we successfully deal with a stressful situation our body still puts chemicals into itself that stimulates it. Those chemicals increase the stress we feel if we dont find a way to release those chemicals from our bodies.

The best way to release those chemicals from our bodies is to exercise and sweat them out of your system. Exercise fulfills the fight-or-flight mechanism in your body, and it will eliminate the stimulant chemicals that your body uses to raise its awareness. In addition to getting rid of these essential, but often unused stimulus chemicals in your body, exercise will help your body to burn fat. The burning the fat cells in your body releases a chemical that calms the body, helping to lower daily stress levels.

Losing weight is also a good way to raise ones self-esteem. The raising of your self-esteem will reduce stress one experiences in daily life, and it will also help to raise ones happiness levels. A good way to help your body to burn fat is to add protein to your diet. Your body uses additional protein in your diet to help repair muscles fibers and construct lean muscle. The more lean muscles that you have in your body the more energy your body needs to burn to maintain the muscle, and you lose more weight. A simple way to add protein is through a whey protein supplement. Whey protein gives high amounts of protein per serving, without the addition of carbohydrates and fats that other supplements contain. Whey protein is dairy based so it is easy for your body to digest. Plus, studies have shown that protein acts as a natural stress-relief supplement, so that you can lower your stress levels while you are lowering your weight.

Stress cant be avoided in your daily life, but how you handle stress will determine if how you are able to live with it.

It Might be Necessary to Walk Before you Run When Losing Weight

by

http://www.articleforfree.com/Articles/Weight-Loss/It-Might-be-Necessary-to-Walk-Before-you-Run-When-Losing-Weight-715305831.aspx

Getting a good exercise doesnt involve a massive gym or even a miracle workout program that you see on television. The only thing that is required is a good pair of running shoes and a desire to lose weight. There are plenty of paths that provide a workout that is just as good as any workout that you would get on a treadmill or elliptical machine. One of those paths is the sidewalk in front of your house.

Many people are reluctant to start any sort of aerobic workout because they arent able to maintain a high and steady pace. They dont like to have the stops and starts of a jog, or they cant run as fast as the other people they see running around the neighborhood. Yet, for a person that is just starting out, it might actually be more productive for them to walk before they run.

When you are getting a cardiovascular workout it is important to control your heart rate. Your heart rate will indicate to you when you are burning fat calories. When you are trying to burn fat calories you should try not to have a high impact workout. When you have a high impact workout you are building your endurance, but your body uses your short term energy supply to help your body have energy. There are many websites with charts that will help you to determine the best fat burning heart rate for your body type. It is usually 60% of your bodys maximum heart rate. Once you have determined what is your ideal heart rate for burning fat it is easy to determine your heart rate. You can either place your fingers on your pulse or count your heart beats in a minute, or you can use a heart beat monitor. Heart rate monitors are inexpensive, and are very easy to use. They usually strap on your arm or chest, and have a large screen giving you your heart rate.

In addition to keeping a lower steadier heart rate, it is important to also think about your nutrition. You want to help your body to burn the maximum amount of calories. The most productive way to burn calories is by helping your body to create lean muscle. Lean muscle creation takes a large amount of calories, and it also takes many calories to maintain. Even when you are not working out and you are just recovering. Protein is the building block that your body uses to create lean muscle. Increasing the amount of protein that you have in your diet will help your body to have a steady supply of protein to create lean muscle.

A person that is actively training should take half of their body weight in grams of protein a day. It is difficult to take in that amount of protein in your normal diet. The best way to increase your intake of protein is by using a whey protein isolate supplement. Whey protein is easy to digest, and provides the highest amounts of pure protein. It also doesnt include the fats and carbohydrates that other protein supplements contain.

It takes a lot of work to reach your weight loss goals. Yet, through smart training and the use of a smart diet you will be able to succeed.:)

The 30 Easiest Ways to Burn More Calories

by

http://www.articleavenue.com/article81-the-30-easiest-ways-to-burn-more-calories.html

1.The following is adapted from Bargain Beauty Secrets by Diane Irons. Sourcebooks Inc., 2002. Used with permission.
Can you lose weight without buying special foods, joining a gym or getting involved in an expensive diet club? Yes! By making important lifestyle changes, you'll lose the weight safely and permanently while saving money!
Reach for water before you reach for a snack. It's the cheapest, safest appetite-suppressant there is.

2. Keep the cupboards bare. You'll save both money and temptation. By cutting back on the amount of food choices you have around, there will be less impulse snacking.

3. Do something inspiring. A cheap incentive is sticking a picture of a dress you'd really love to wear where it will motivate you. For those with a wild side, get your belly button pierced.

4. Use spices liberally. Ginger, cayenne, jalapeno peppers and Tabasco sauce can boost your fat-burning ability by up to 25%, according to a researcher at Kyoto University in Japan.

5. Sleep for weight loss. Getting enough sleep does more than keep you from eating for energy. The University of Chicago recently found that a woman's metabolism rises 40% when she gets enough sleep.

6. Be a smart shopper. Have a list when you go to the supermarket to prevent impulse purchases. For extra exercise, leave your cart at the end of each aisle and carry what you need back to it.

7. Follow the pros' lead. To get fit fast, models cut out the ABCs -- alcohol, bread, and complex carbohydrates.

8. Beat nighttime cravings. Researchers have found that dark rooms and the darkness of night make us more likely to overeat. Try scheduling your bedtime for an hour earlier. If you have a favorite program that you like to watch at night, tape it. Switch to brighter light bulbs for cheerier surroundings, you'll be happier and less likely to binge.

9. Always eat breakfast. It fuels you for the day and you'll be less hungry at lunch.

10. Snack right. A hard candy is only about 20 calories and can last up to twenty minutes. A 400-calorie ice cream cone never lasts more than ten minutes. Try these tasty treats that are less than 150 calories: two Oreo cookies, a McDonald's Ice Cream Cone, a half cup of Italian Ice, a Starbucks Frappuccino Ice Cream Bar, Jell-o with whipped cream, angel food cake with strawberries, a Fudgsicle.

11. Listen to feel-good music when you have the urge to binge. Researchers have found that it activates the same feel-good center of the brain that eating your favorite foods does.

12. Don't eat unless you've made a place setting.

13. Drink green tea. A study conducted by the University of Switzerland discovered that drinking green tea increases the number of calories your body burns. Try to drink three cups a day.

14. Concentrate on what you're eating. Keep food out of sight while you're watching TV, reading, studying or answering email

15. Get out. Try to spend twenty minutes a day sitting outside or taking a walk or, at the very least, sit by a sunny window. Sunlight helps to control food cravings.

16. Eat healthy at the mall. Order a kid's meal or a salad without heavy dressing. Have a yogurt for a quick pick-me-up.

17. Get minty fresh. Brush your teeth and tongue with the best-tasting toothpaste you can find. Use mouthwash and breath mints to trick your taste buds.

18. Watch your portions. Just because you're given a certain portion doesn't mean that amount is what your body needs. Eat only until you're comfortably full. A little left on your plate each day adds up to a long-term decrease in calories.

19. Give up one bad eating habit. For example, if you eat in front of the TV or in bed, move your meal to the kitchen table.

20. Don't be too hard on yourself. If you have a diet plan that's too low in calories for your weight and energy level, you'll slow down your metabolism as your body attempts to conserve calories. Don't dip below 1,200 calories or aim for more than a one- to two- pound weight loss per week.



21. Take the stairs instead of the elevator.

22. Dance in your car. While you're stuck in traffic, work your abs. Concentrate on your rib cage -- pretend you're an exotic dancer and swirl around. Not only will you see your waist whittle and your abs harden, you'll release lower back tension.

23. Buy a jump rope. It's great exercise, and even more fun if you can remember all the rhymes you jumped to as a kid. You'll get your heart rate up and work the muscles in your upper and lower body, especially the stomach if you contract your abs while jumping.

24. Work your butt. When you're in the car or standing in line, contract your buttocks for fifteen second intervals. Tighten your muscles as you breathe in and then breathe out and release. It not only firms your butt, but relieves stress.

25. Act goofy. Even if you're too busy for the gym, you can still do cardio. Put on a pair of socks and slide around the house like a skater. You'll burn 150 calories in just ten minutes.

26. Get some free weights. It's all you need to start a strength-training regimen.

27. Take two steps at a time when you climb stairs. Skipping a step will force your leg and buttocks muscles to extend and work harder. Plus, this movement releases endorphins that will make you feel great!
28. Do yard work. Pull weeks, dig holes and rake your lawn. Gardening just one hour can burn up to 500 calories.

29. Rent or buy some exercise videos. It's like having a health club in the privacy of your own room.

30. Burn calories while doing housework. Do several chores at one time. For instance, make the bed, put laundry in the dryer, run upstairs to fold clean clothes and put them away. When you're making the beds, keep your shoulders back and pretend you have a book on your head. While you're dusting, roll up on the balls of your feet to work your calves.

The Best Fat Burning Exercise

By

http://www.article-database.com/2009/11/04/the-best-fat-burning-exercise/

Many people wonder about the perfect exercise to lose fat. The truth is that there is none. There is no single exercise that will do miracles.

You must have a battery of exercises that work out your body and give you the results you have been waiting for. The great thing is that there are many exercises to choose from and they will do miracles not only for your body status but also for the mental health. You will get out of boredom and staleness. You will be energized and full of joy.

This article is about some of the best exercises to burn fat and also shape up your body. I will tell you about my favorite routines. If you do these exercises in a correct manner you will burn in half an hour the calories you would burn with one hour of jogging.

I am referring to the Advanced Burpee. When you are doing this exercise the technique is extremely important. I will tell you how to do this exercise, step by step.
Here are the four basic steps of Advanced Burpee.

1. Put one shoulder down and stand on it. Then squat down and put the hands on the ground in front of the feet.

2. After that you will have to kick back the feet and, at the same time, lower the chest to the ground.

3. You will also have to push your chest away from the floor and thrusting your legs back up into the squat position. Keep the hands still on the floor.

4. You will finish the exercise by jumping up in the air. When you are landing, simply drop back down into the squat position and repeat the exercise.

How many times you have to do that? There are many ways to integrate this exercise among others. You can set the stopwatch for five minutes. Then do as many Advanced Burpees as you can in that five minute period. Try to push yourself and do not be lazy. When the time period is over count how many reps you did. When you are repeating the exercise the next day, try to do one more rep than the day before and exceed your limits. When you will not be able to add any more reps it means you have to change the workout.

In conclusion, work hard and push yourself to get the best results.

Five Fat Burning Secrets By: Ben Greenfield

SEE-:http://articlelookup.com/index.php?page=article&article_id=42816

Usually, I'm not this specific in my articles, but I'm going to give you the exact details on 5 very efficient methods for maximizing your metabolism and boosting your fat burning levels. These are strategies you can use that don't incorporate long workouts or calorie counting diets – just practical methods of achieving results. Throw just 1 or 2 of these tips into your daily routine, and you'll notice changes. Try all 5, and you’ll be able to literally watch the fat melt away and a lean body begin to appear.

1: 10-15 minutes of light exercise before breakfast every morning. You may have heard that you shouldn't exercise on an empty stomach before breakfast because by the time that you finally do eat the morning meal, your body will be in fat-storage, starvation mode. While this is true for longer exercise sessions, a brief bout of exercise will give your metabolism a boost and ensure you start the day off right. Here is a sample routine to complete 1-2x:

25 knee or regular pushups + 25 jumping jacks

25 crunches + 25 jumping jacks

25 body weight squats + 25 jumping jacks

25 toe raises + 25 jumping jacks

2: Park at least a football field from the front door of anywhere you go - grocery store, shopping mall, health club, church, video rental - everywhere! If you have a hard time gauging the distance of a football field, take about 50 long strides. For most individuals, that will be close to 50 yards.

3: Eat one of the following every single day (I call it the ABS group): 1 Apple, 1 Banana, 1 Salad. Whole, raw, and with as little dressing, peanut butter, croutons, cheese, and other fancy additives as possible.

4: Perform 20 body weight squats every time you use the restroom. Don't laugh - I told you I'd be specific! Make sure to keep your weight on your heels, your knees behind your toes, and your back straight. And get those thighs parallel to the ground.

5: Do not eat any food that contains High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS). I dare you. Since HFCS is extremely soluble, mixes with many foods, is cheap to make and easy to store, its used in everything from bread to dressing to processed meats to beer to health bars to soda. Because HFCS doesn’t activate the hormones in the body that regulate weight and appetite, fat burning and metabolism are suppressed after it’s consumption – even more that other sweeteners!

OK, now that you've got the 5 secrets, let's review tomorrow's plan: 10-15 minutes of light to moderate exercise followed by a healthy, complex breakfast; park far away everywhere; eat ABS; squat when you squat; nix HFCS. Got it? Good! Our bodies weren't meant to sit quietly the entire day and be fueled by liquid candy and processed foods, so eat smart, live smart, and train smart!

All about Exercise

BY

http://www.saffolalife.com/exercise-right-articles

Most of us aspire for a size zero figure or six pack abs and more often than not imagine working out in the gym on a treadmill or lifting weights. How about getting your dose of exercise through outdoor games, using the stairs instead of an elevator, walking across the road for shopping, go cycling or swimming with our friend? The whole idea is to make 'being active' a habit and not just another unpleasant chore.

Exercise simply means physical activity that is a structured movement of the body designed to enhance physical fitness. But remember exercise has so many benefits that any amount is better than none.

A good exercise program must include the following three stages: Flexibility and Warm up: Start every workout with a warm-up. A warm up involves stretching of the muscles. Stretching improve the range of motion of muscles and joints. Spend 5 to 10 minutes doing some stretching exercises, marching, spot jogging, and touching toes.
Aerobic exercises such as cycling, walking, running, hiking, and playing tennis focus on increasing cardiovascular endurance. The goal is to be working hard enough that the heart is beating faster than at rest. An ideal intensity level would be somewhere between 60 and 75 percent of your maximum heart rate. You need to do aerobic activity at around that intensity level at least three times a week for 20 minutes at a time, in order to get results.
A resistance-training regimen strengthens and tone major muscle groups, such as the quadriceps, hamstrings, chest, biceps, triceps, back, and abdominal area.

The rule of thumb is that if one can lift the weight only 8 to 10 times before one becomes overly fatigued, then that is a good strengthening exercise. You need to do strengthening exercises two to three times a week to get a significant benefit.

Stretching at the end of a workout (cool down) is just as important as at the beginning. It helps reduce the heart rate to resting levels.
Why Exercise?Physical Exercise helps in weight management by burning fat first and storing carbohydrates for use later in the day and thus slows weight regain. It may also minimize overeating by inducing a feeling of fullness to the brain.
Exercise prevents the increase in the number of fat cells that occurs during weight regain.
People who exercise regularly lower their risk of hypertension, heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, depression, anxiety, sleep problems and frailty.
Aerobic activity is the most important exercise for young and middle-aged adults because it helps with weight control and cardiovascular health. However, in recent times, strengthening exercises have become even more important than aerobic activity because of their ability to improve resistance, reduce the risks of having falls, and generally help people maintain their independence.

Here are some tips that will help you include exercise into your day:

Take the stairs instead of the elevator
Walk up to the railway station/ bus stop instead of taking a rickshaw.
Take a walk after having lunch and dinner.
Get 1-2 stops before your destination and then walk it out.
Indulge in household works like mopping, sweeping, gardening.
Maintenance of physical activity is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
So what you are waiting for... make a move right away!!!
