Just Move...A Quick Way to a
"Trim and Fit" Body
By Dan Robey
It's actually very simple; if you want a trim, fit, healthy body that will be yours forever, you have to
move, and you have to move often.
Here is a simple question I ask everyone who tells
me that they feel run down, unhealthy and depressed.
"How many times a week do you elevate your heart
rate to 70% of it's maximum for 10 minutes or more?"
Guess what the answer is almost 100% of the time?
"Never"
You must add movement habits to your life if you want to be fit,
trim and healthy.
If you live a sedentary lifestyle your health will suffer, that is a guarantee. If you want to feel
and look good you have to move and you have to move often.
Bill Hebson is a friend and personal-fitness trainer that I have known for many years. I spoke to him recently regarding the importance of adding movement to your lifestyle and here
is what he said:
"Real-life activities happen standing. We are rarely if ever asked to apply force in a sitting position or laying down. We live in a dynamic, free
weight, three dimensional environment.
Your training should stress whole-body multi-dimensional movements, so each exercise trains the most musculature, burns the most calories, elevates the
whole body's metabolism, and has the highest transference into real world or
athletic abilities. In short, youget the biggest bang for your buck."
What Bill is saying is that you have to incorporate multidimensional
movements into your daily life if you want a trim and fit body. Positive
movement habits will provide you with an increase in your activity levels and
multidimensional movements automatically.
Walk more everyday
Buy a pedometerand track
how many steps you take each
day
Do exercises like jumping jacks, rope jumping and running in
place while watching TV.
Go to your library or bookstore and get books on exercise.(see info on a great
exercise book below)
Become a fitness maniac....read about it, do it,
make it a daily part of your life....you will be rewarded.
How important is movement?
Being overweight and physically inactive accounts for more
than 300,000 premature deaths annually in the United States,
second only to deaths related to smoking.
A study done at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas found that a 50-year-old
could be brought back to the fitness levels of a 20-year-old with just 6
months of exercise training!
What can Movement habits do for me ?
Well for one thing, they can help you reach your goal of a trim and fit body and maintain it permanently. Combine
them with other diet and positive movement habits and you have a
powerful combination that will get you trim fast.
Does that sound good to you? They can also improve your
health, make you look younger, and can increase your longevity.
Let's see, positive movement habits can help me live longer and while I am living longer I will have a trim and fit body and look younger......not a bad
combination, wouldn't you say?
To make daily movement a part of your lifestyle, you simply have to acquire positive movement habits. Once you
have acquired them, they will be yours forever and so will the benefits that
come with them. They will help you to achieve the trim and fit body you have
been wanting and help you to maintain it.
