Fitness Friday!

1st Tip: Workout In The Morning!

Working out in the morning really makes all the difference. Firstly, if you workout in the afternoon, there is more of a chance of you skipping your workout due to conflicts.  Getting your workout in right when you wake up guarantees that you work out. Also, you can get it over with and won't have to worry about it later. Another cool thing, is that you burn more fat in the morning.  It takes about 3 minutes to start burning fat right when you wake up, where it takes about 12 minutes in the afternoon.  This happens beacuse your body has to burn through all the sugar you've eaten beforehand, and in the morning, your body hasn't had any sugar yet.  In conclusion, if you workout in the morning, EVERYONE WINS!

2nd Tip: Do 8 Minute Abs Before You Go To Sleep!

Okay this may sound weird, but I've been doing this for a while, and I gotta say, I have abs of steel.  It's only 8  minutes, and it really gives your abs a good workout.  If you can't do this everyday, I would suggest doing it at least every other day to get good results. 

3rd Tip: Keep Calm!

Being fit and healthy is somewhat of a challenge...For me, if I mess up and eat a big, fat juicy burger, I don't freak! It's oaky to mess up! When you over eat or forget to excercise, just drink a lot of water and try to be healthy for the rest of the day.  A bunch of little steps make big changes!
