Following
a diet program of any sort can sometimes be
restricting depending on different circumstances.
A Strict diet program can be hard to stick to and
the best diet programs are the diet programs that
you can definitely stick with for the rest of your
life.
The best advice for a diet program is a healthy
balanced diet using all food groups, drink plenty
of water and exercise very regularly. Sticking
with this type of diet program is not restricting
in any way and gives you a huge variety of foods
to choose from. Watch your fat intake and really
stop and think about what you are about to put
into your mouth. You know if you are eating junk
or eating a healthy diet.
It’s up to you at the end of the day to educate
yourself on what type of diet program is
ridiculous and which are sensible and maintainable
for a lifetime. The secret is exercise. Your diet
program simply must include exercise if you want
the best results in the shortest possible time.
With so much confusing information in the market
about exactly what a healthy diet is; it’s
little wonder people fumble and end up so
frustrated they don’t know what a healthy diet
means anymore!
Here’s some basic steps to a healthy diet that
you start to implement right now.
A healthy diet should be balanced and includes all
food groups. This means lots of fresh fruits,
vegetables, whole-grains, low fat dairy products
and of course heaps of water!
A healthy diet should be low in saturated fats,
trans fat and cholesterol. Your daily fat intake
should come mainly from nuts, fish, and vegetable
oils. Try to keep your fat intake to 20-35% of
your daily intake of calories for a healthy diet.
Eat lots of different types of fruits and
vegetables for the really healthy diet. At least 2
cups of fruit and 2-3 cups of vegetables. It’s
easy!
Limit the number of high processed foods such as
biscuits, lollies, chips etc. For a truly healthy
diet…it’s everything in moderation!
Include a good variety of whole-grains each day
for fibre. Keeps you clean on the inside!
A healthy diet is not hard…if you keep it in
moderation. Don’t overdo any of the food
groups…just mix them and make sure you drink
plenty of water.
For a healthy diet…watch the intake of alcohol.
One drink a day for women, two a day for men.
For the overall best result in women’s
fitness…a mix of both is best. Cardio-vascular
training is great for fat burning and getting fit,
but it doesn’t build muscle tissue/or prevent
the loss of it. Women’s fitness training needs
to focus on retaining as much muscle tissue as
possible, as we lose it with age.
Therefore, by lifting weights at least once a
week, women will most definitely slow down loss of
muscle tissue and the ageing process. There’s a
huge range of different types of weight bearing
exercises and cardio exercises available for
Women’s fitness training. It’s best to be
advised by a credited gym instructor or personal
trainer.
