How to increase your Metabolism...
Pump it0 Dump it0      Posted on: 05-Nov-2008

Metabolism is the process developing energy from the consumed food. Metabolism is the rate at which your body uses energy, or, burns calories. Your resting metabolism measures the number of calories required to keep your body functioning. Even while we sleep our metabolism is working. Your body is using up energy to keep running to make your heart beat, your kidneys function, and so on. To get a general idea of what your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) , multiply your weight by 10. If you weight 150 pounds then your BMR = 150 x 10 kcal/lb = 1,500 kcals (kcals stands for the number calorie burned).

Tone your stomach to the way you want
Pump it0 Dump it0      Posted on: 22-Oct-2008

Getting a beautiful flat stomach is like a dream come true for every girl. But having a flat belly is not so easy. It requires lots of efforts and regular exercise. The best way to tone up your stomach muscles is with an exercise that stresses the stomach muscles directly at the front and an exercise that hits the side abs. First of all we need to understand where the fat is stored. Examine your body in the mirror.

You may notice that your actual stomach is pretty flat, but the area around your belly button still protrudes and this is where the real problem is. If this is case, your problem is your lower abdominal region more so than your stomach. Fat is stored here for a number of reasons. For some, it's genetic and that just happens to be where the body stores its fat. It may be indigestion. If your food is not digesting properly, it can cause a bulge in your lower abdominal area. IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) is another common cause for this problem), so get it checked out at your local GP.

tone your stomach

Sit ups and crunches are great for toning muscle, but wont get rid of the layer of fat that lies over it. You need to do some cardio exercise, such as running, to burn the fat as well. Combine the running with sit ups and crunches and you should have a flat stomach in no time!

When should you start?

If you had a vaginal birth, you can start most regular activities again as soon as you feel comfortable. After a cesarean birth, exercise can be started when you're comfortable and have discussed your exercise plans with a physiotherapist, doctor or other health practitioner. Start slowly, and then gradually build up the length of exercise. If you have heavier and brighter bleeding after exercise, you need to slow down. If you feel pain while exercising, stop and rest.

Want to loose weight? Then avoid eating empty calories
Pump it0 Dump it0      Posted on: 10-Sep-2008

If you wish to loose weight and planning for dieting, be careful while choosing food for your diet. Some foods are especially bad for weight loss. Foods that contain a high number of calories or fat without providing valuable nutrients are referred to as "empty calories." These foods can dramatically increase the number of calories you consume without filling you up.

empty calories
 

Fat is not just what accumulates on your body. It is also a type of molecule within food. Fat takes many forms and appears in most types of food, but is most concentrated within animal products like cheese, eggs, and meat. Fat is harmful for two reasons: fat tends to have many calories, compared to other kinds of food, and fat promotes the buildup of plaque on the walls of the arteries, which leads to heart disease.

Successful tips for weight loss

Dieting but not starving: Diets charm us with promises of quick weight loss. But focusing on quick weight loss can lead to unhealthy eating and only short term success. Because as we all know the right comes back on when you eat "normally" again. While most diets produce quick weight loss at the outset, they often cause your metabolism to slow. The result is that you have to eat less and less to keep losing weight. You quickly become discouraged, give up, and start eating like you used to. But now, with a slower metabolism, you regain all the weight you lost, and more.

Steaming is a great way to cook vegetables to preserve all the nutrients they have. If you boil the vegetables all the vitamins and minerals can be removed whilst boiling, so then what's the point in eating them? Steaming is also a great way to make your vegetables for your baby, and then all you need to do is puree or mash them depending on the age of your child. Plus if you eat them as you are feeding him, as we all do it's not that bad either!

Pump it0 Dump it0      Posted on: 17-Aug-2008

Spinning is an aerobic exercise that takes place on a specially designed stationary bicycle called a spinning bike. Spinning is relatively safe because it is done with a smooth rotary motion that does not involve road shock of running. Spinning burns a large number of calories (about 450 in 45 minutes) and offers an awesome aerobic workout that makes your heart pump fast. It also tones your quadriceps (front thigh muscles) and outer thigh muscles!

Because you stay in one place with the same basic movement throughout, Spinning doesn't involve a lot of coordination, it's easier to do than other types of aerobic classes. And although you follow the general instructions of the spinning teacher, you are in control when it comes to your pace. You can finish a spin class, regardless of your fitness level, simply by adjusting your pace or the tension knob on the bike.  Spinning was created by world-class cyclist "Jonny G" as a convenient and quick way to train for races almost 15 years ago and is rapidly growing in popularity.
