Want a Leaner, Tighter Body?

There is a beautiful tale of Scandinavian mythology. A hero, under the promise of becoming god-like, is bidden in the celestial halls to perform three test-acts of prowess. He is to drain the drinking-horn of Thor. Then he must run a race with a courser so fleet that he fairly spurns the ground under his flying footsteps. Then he must wrestle with a toothless old woman, whose sinewy hands, as wiry as eagle claws in the grapple, make his very flesh to quiver. He is victorious in them all. But as the crown of success is placed upon his temples, he discovers for the first time that he has had for his antagonist the three greatest forces of nature. He raced with thought, he wrestled with old age, he drank the sea.

Nature, like the God of nature, wrestles with us as a friend, not an enemy, wanting us to gain the victory, and wrestles with us that we may understand and enjoy her best blessings. Every greatest and highest earthly good has come to us unfolded and enriched by this terrible wrestling with nature.

Today's video shares with us the value of a great cardio workout -

Do you ever find yourself trying to suck in your belly when that really hot member of the opposite sex walks by? At the beach - or in the supermarket - everyone wants to look slim and trim!

The good news is - you're in good company. So many of us are carrying around a few extra pounds - and inches - than we had just a few short years ago.

So what is the quickest way to lose that extra weight and then keep it off? The TV ads we are practically bombarded with might lead you to believe the answer is found in a pill or even a tasty drink! Oh, that we could be so lucky!

If your Doctor tries to prescribe a pill to help you lose weight - run, don't walk to the nearest exit. Save your money!

Start exercising every day. Start eating healthy foods - in moderation - and avoiding all those comfort foods we've all grown up with. Eliminate white bread and white rice and white sugar - as much as possible. Instead, choose naturally good fruits and vegetables! Have some protein early in the day.

You'll need the protein to help fuel your muscle growth! Start or pick up the intensity of your own strength program! Choose a wide variety of exercises to help you build muscles and burn off those unwanted extra inches!

Keys to A Healthy Life

Here's a healthy goal for anyone: sweat every day; not a mere perspiration, but a good, old-fashioned sweat.

If you're tired of the gym, try a fun alternative. Start with walking and shed around 240 calories per hour at a moderate pace. Pick up the pace and torch off even more unwanted pounds! Try something new. Ballet or swimming laps burns around 422 calories each hour. Not into wearing tights? Get on your bicycle and burn 275 calories per hour!

Take a break. You may burn more fat when you break an hour long workout into two 30-minute sessions. Give yourself a 15 or 20-minute rest in between and the boost may continue after you exercise. Keeping well-hydrated and replacing fluids lost
during exercise is also a key part of feeling good and getting the most out of your workout.

Get your hands dirty. Gardening gives you as much of a workout as walking or golf, a recent study reported. Plus: The weight-bearing motions involved in digging and pulling weeds can strengthen bones and muscle.

Get out your mp3 player and exercise to music. Research shows that listening to your favorite tunes while working out help keep you going up to 10 or 15 percent longer!

Want to live a healthy life? Maybe hoping to drop a few pounds? Two vital keys are keeping energy intake (food) and energy output (physical activity) in balance. When you consume only as many calories as your body needs, your weight will usually remain constant. If you take in more calories than your body needs, you will put on excess fat. If you expend more energy than you take in you will burn excess fat.

Exercise plays an important role in weight control by increasing your energy output, calling on stored calories for extra fuel. Recent studies show that not only does exercise increase metabolism during a workout, but it causes your metabolism to stay increased for a period of time after exercising, allowing you to burn off even more calories! You really can exercise and lose weight fast!
