1. Manage the calories.
We generally eat more
calories than we need and the rest turns to fat. Add a sedentary lifestyle and
most of it turns to fat along with poor blood circulation and all the related
health issues such as high blood pressure, pre-diabetes, diabetes, poor
posture, heart disease and cancer. Start managing the calorie intake by
reducing portion sizes or increasing the intake of vegetables which are low in
calories and high in nutrients and fiber.
2. Eat predominantly
unprocessed, plant-based foods and stay away from fad diets.
Even Jack Lalanne, the
fitness guru from many years ago, recognized the importance of eating food that
is not processed or only minimally processed because these foods have the most
nutrients and the least amount of added chemicals. Make plant-based foods the
primary source and, as an exception, meat and dairy. If you follow that rule,
you will promote good health.

3. Complete body workout
with lots of pushups, squats, lunges, dips and crunches.
Exercise the body like it
was designed to be used with natural body weight exercises and good,
old-fashioned cardio, such as interval training runs.
4. 50 to 100 yard interval
training runs of five to ten sets per workout.
If you had to choose
between cardio and strength training, cardio would be the one to choose. Most
health issues are related to poor blood circulation. Cardio is the answer.

5.Incorporate as much
movement into your daily life as possible.
Seek out opportunities in
the course of the day to move your body and you will not only add a calorie
burn increase but will do something great for your health, long-term, by
creating a healthy habit.
