Up Up Up ...

With the wonderful blue sky and the summer finally here, it is the perfect time to get out and move your body. Only a half hour of daily cardio-activity can make a huge difference in your weight loss efforts. But it is now time to bring our exercise one level up. If you have been doing quick walking for the past three weeks, then you should try running for maybe 5 to 10 minutes in your 30 minutes walk. If you have been running for 20-30 minutes, it is time to include some sprints in your training, to bring your heart beat up.

The key is increase intensity gradually, while respecting your body. But it is been proven over and over again that the best way to increase your cardio-vascular condition, is to do interval training, where you raise your heart beat to 80% or more of your maximum capacity for a short period, and do many repetitions. However, don't put too much strain on your joints. If you still have a weight surcharge of over 20 pounds, don't run too much yet, unless your joints are in great condition. You may try a light jogging but no sprinting yet. Take charge of your own health and your weight will follow your efforts! )
Keep going with lots of energy!
