Weekly Get in Shape Tips


Hey Team,

Are you ready for another week of grueling workouts and punishing exercises, I know you don't want to do it, but we all know that you have to! Now wake your ass up and get running, that is right folks it is time to start running.

Get in Shape Tip #1:
I recommend running at least 1 mile every weekend, to start off. To maintain and increase that distance is the goal, so every other day walk 1/2 a mile or a full mile, few times around the block should suffice, after dinner, or in the morning are the best times.

Get in Shape Tip #2:
Do not eat junk food!! Especially after you have already had your dinner. One way to loose a few lbs to is make sure that you make dinner your LAST meal of the day. Or just do not eat 2 hours before you are planning on going to sleep. Your body needs at least 2 hours to break down all of the foods properly, before going to sleep, or else you could have night mares. Haha just kidding, but your food won't be getting broken down properly, and will all get stored as fat. This is a very easy way to gain weight, eat a lot right when you are going to bed.

Get in Shape Tip #3:
Exercise at least 3 times a week folks! I can not STRESS this enough, this is essential to achieving your work out goals! You have to make sure you are working out your body every other day of the week, do not double up, or work out the same body part two days in a row, you are more than likely to strain the muscle, and could further injure your self if you do not allow at least 1 if not 2 days of rest, depending on the severity of the work out performed. Obviously if you do a hard work out give your body 2 days of rest, if an easier one give it 1 day of rest.

Good luck team! Now get out there and kick some ass!

Good tips. I especially agree with the minimum of 3 workouts a week. My weight loss goes flat if I don't workout at least 3 days a week.
