How To Become Fit Quickly

By Andrew M. Nicola

1. Walk extra if you can. Try sometimes not to park directly next to the entrance, so that you have to walk a bit. Take the stairs instead of the elevator from time to time.

2. Go for walks from time to time, firstly this is good for your fitness and secondly it is also very relaxing.

3. Try to walk with better posture. You have to put the chest out as much as you can and the head further up. Do not be afraid that you might look too arrogant. This will not be the case. A good exercise you could do to train this is imagining that you want to grab apples from high an apple tree. In order to do this you have to make your body as long as possible.

4. Stretch body as often as you can. Even a couple of minutes doing this will have a very beneficial effect. Just try out how pleasant you feel after doing this exercise. Furthermore doing it regularly will prevent you from suffering under stiff joints.

5. Eat less unhealthy fats, these make you feel so weighty that you stop being stimulated to do any physical action. As a terrible consequence you will thus even not be able to lose the fats. If you consume fats the least you can do is selecting healthy ones like omega-3 fat acids.

6. Eat more protein instead of fat and carbohydrates, you need it in order to build up some muscles. Fat cannot very easily be transformed into protein.

7. Do more sports as free time activity, if possible in a club. If you are in a team, the team members will motivate you to do sports far more often then you could motivate yourself to do it. You could for example start with dancing or just gymnastics. This is not so competitive.

8. Lift some weights, this is what you can do every day, if you do not have any time left for sports, you can still do it for five minutes. It is proven that very short sessions of sports also stabilize your blood sugar level.

9. Try out some mind body-exercises like Yoga, tai-chi or meditation. These kinds of exercises will let the blood flow through your whole body and simply release stress and anxiety. It will also stimulate energies to do more intense exercises later on.

10. Write down some goals in order not to forget everything you want to do about your fitness. Start with small goals to get used to it and remember that even a small change in your lifestyle everyday can lead to a big change after a while. Just try it out.
