Simple ways to transform your health

In the Power Tools to Success podcast episode, we spoke to Ronald Abvajee, a health and fitness expert, to ask how you can transform your health and fitness in just ten days. The subject of health and fitness is not easy, there is too much conflicting advice for diet and so is exercise programs. In life you are successful when you do what you love and enjoy. The strategies we share with you are meant to help you get started with fitness and exercise from a place of enjoyment. Only after you begin to enjoy physical activity and exercise can you begin serious exercise programs. The truth is, there are simple ways to transform your health and fitness that you can start using today, right away. Here are some of them:

• Don’t eat for pleasure, eat for sustenance. Eating for pleasure leads you to eat not only unhealthy meals but larger meals as well. So try to eat for energy so you can get on with your day and get your work done every day.
• Get up from the sofa every day, walk, walk with your children, or walk your dogs or walk with your partner. A simple walk every day can lead to burning calories up to 250 and help you reach your health and fitness goals. or run or play rugby. Whatever gets you off the couch and physical, do it. The more fun, the better.
• Avoid sugary drinks. Rather, drink raw fruit. Invest in a juicer. Drink lots of water too.
• Vegetarians are more likely to lose weight than meat eaters. You don’t have to become a vegetarian, but you can go meat-free for a week or two and see if doing so helps with your weight. For most people, going a few days without eating meat in their diet is helpful. When they don’t eat meat, most people eat less than normal. This can go a long way in helping you reach your goal of losing weight.

The above strategies will help you improve your health and fitness in as little as ten days. Once you’re motivated enough, you can start a formal exercise and diet program to help you reach your fitness goals.
