Health and Fitness

first step to health and fitness

Health and fitness are also a part of an abundant life. If you have ever been ill, you know that nothing else matters. Money sure doesn't mean anything if you don't have the energy to enjoy it.

I think we can agree that quality of life is what we all want. Think of health and fitness like this - good health helps us achieve a high quality of life and fitness makes us want to live it every day.

So, where are you "bankrupt" in your health? Where are you "bankrupt" in your fitness?

Figuring out where you are regarding your current level of fitness will allow you to come up with a plan that will take you into a life filled with an abundance of health and fitness.

Fitness

Fitness: "The ability to function efficiently and effectively, to enjoy leisure, to be healthy, to resist disease, and to cope with emergency situations. Health-related components of physical fitness include body-composition, cardiovascular fitness, flexibility muscular endurance, and strength. Skill-related components include agility balance coordination, power, reaction time, and speed. The relative importance of each of the components varies for each sport. Physical fitness is not only sport specific, it may also be position specific." (WikiAnswers)

One of the ways that I check in with my fitnes level is this: how easy is it for me to jump off the couch and run up the stairs? Do I feel lean and flowing or am I heavy and slow? Do I creak with aches and pains?

Health

weights Health is generally defined as being "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity" according to the World Health Organization (WHO).

Physical, mental and social well being are critical to your overall health. It is not just being disease free. Think about where you are. Do you have an abundance of well being relating to how you are feeling physically, mentally and socially?

Start Here

If you are not sure where you are, maybe the first thing you could do is consult a physician and find out where you are:

  • blood pressure
  • weight
  • % body fat
  • % of muscle
  • bone density

These are the physical, in your face numbers. Where are you when it comes to stress, depression or anxiety?

Where do you want to be?

What daily physical activities do you perform? Do you have enough energy throughout the day?

If you are under a lot of stress financially, it's probably a given that you are physically stressed. Understanding your stress level will determine if a yoga practice or a boxing class is best for you. Maybe hula hoop?

All movement holds the potential for individual self-expression and self-expression is a great stress relief! Finding the activity that embodies your spirit and energy will bring you a sense of accomplishment and pride.

Whether weight loss, improved flexibility, or cardiovascular fitness is your objective, knowing how you want to feel is important to keep focus on the routine and set a benchmark from which to measure progress. Feel good about what you’re doing and see how effortless fitness can be!

Weight Loss

Many of us are looking to lose weight. This is probably the one thing you can do that will benefit you the most regarding your health and fitness.

There are so many advantages to losing weight and getting a healthy body. One of the biggest advantages is being able to live the life you want - active and fun!!

The One Thing You MUST Do to Lose Weight

Vision. Yes, that is the one thing that you absolutely must do to lose weight.

Here is what that means. You must see yourself how you want to be. You must feel what that feels like. You must see yourself in the clothes you would like to wear. You must see yourself climbing that hill or swimming - or whatever exercise gets you excited. Do you love to bike? See yourself biking.

This can be fun too. See the looks on your friends and family's faces when they see you looking your best. See them cheering you and leaping with joy at how amazing you look and how amazing you are.

See yourself trying on that awesome outfit and asking the sales clerk to please get you the next smaller size. Then trying that on and saying "oh, yeah!" Feel the excitement in looking just the way you want to look. (not how someone else wants you to look)

This is where your power is because this is where the magic of the Universe operates!

When you focus on being overweight or why you are overweight, you will always be overweight. Because that is how you see yourself and that is what you believe. When you believe something - "I'm fat" - then you will do whatever it takes to make that true. The same works for you believing "I'm beautiful and the perfect weight for me" then you will do whatever it takes to make that true.

Imagine what it would feel like to be lean and active. Imagine what that person would eat. Be that person!
