Written by Sean Barker
Do you want to change your body and finally get fit for life? Well, lets keep things simple.
If you just followed these 10 tips on a consistent basis, you can transform your body to tip-top shape.
1. Perform cardiovascular/aerobic exercise 3-5 times a weeknn(To get a lean physique you need to be doing some cardiovascular exercise, shorts intervals work best to increase your metabolism and burn fat)
2. Exercise at a high intensitynn(If you can read a magazine while your doing cardio, you are not working hard enough! Imagine how fast you would run if you were being chased by a bear, thats how fast you should run.)
3. Perform weight-training 3-4 times a weeknn(Every 2nd day works great for weight training to allow for rest and recovery)
4. Exercise for 30-60 minutes per sessionnn(The shorter your workouts are the more compound movements you should be doing. Supersets are also great to get a good workout done in a short amount of time)
5. Keep it real! Eat natural foods, avoid processed foodsnn(If it comes in a box or package don't eat it. Even if it says healthy on the package its still not great for you. Real healthy foods don't need to have those labels, ever see an apple with low fat marked on it? Just think if a caveman had access to it you can eat it. ex. meats, berries, nuts, fruits and vegetables
6. Don't skip breakfastnn(It's called break-fast for a reason. Its breaking the fast your body undergoes during sleep. Start the day off right with a good breakfast.)
7. Eat 3 nutrient dense meals and two small snacks each daynn(Most people don't even eat 3 meals a day. Start working on 3 meals first, then add two snacks in between the morning meals and afte
oon meals.)
8. Eat at least 3-4 servings of fruits and vegetables each daynn(Again most people don't eat this much, so make this your minimum, you can't eat enough fruits and veggies)
9. Drink at least 1 liter of water each daynn(Have a glass of water with every meal and snack, as well as first in the morning and last at night)
10. Organize your time (exercise, work, family, friends,)nn(Organize and prioritize your workout, work and family obligations to achieve those goals you have written down. You did write them down right?)
