You may not like what I’m about to say, but dieting alone
will not help you to lose weight. You have to give your body the
exercise it needs. As I mentioned earlier, a couple of centuries ago,
people were involved in a lot of manual labor.
This gave their bodies all the exercise that was needed. But due to the
changed life styles, most of us do not have to engage in strenuous work.
Most of us sit in front of computers all day long or engage in other
sedentary works.
It is because of this that exercise becomes crucial for weight loss.
Generally people do not gain weight till their early twenties. But once
they cross the 25 mark, then visible signs of weight gain can be seen
everywhere and in the mid section in particular.
There is something very important that you have to understand if you are
really considering the possibility of losing weight. You will have to
consciously give your body the required exercise that it needs for the
weight loss to be really
effective.
Watching your diet alone is not going to yield results unless it is
coupled with proper exercise. You have to make a conscious effort for
this. And the solution for this is a work
out routine.
When we think about the life in the country, there is always something
rosy about it. What is it that the people in the country have that we do
not? When you ponder about it you find that those lucky souls eat good
food, they work really hard, by work I mean real physical work and they
have good night’s sleep. Of course they do not have all the amenities
and facilities that the city life has to offer.
But the city life comes with a lot of strings attached. People in the
cities are generally less healthy than the people in the country. One of
the reasons is pollution of course but the other reason is because
people in the city do not get enough exercise.
Now, when I talk about healthy bodies please make no mistake about what
I am referring to. I am not talking about the Mr. Universe kind of body,
the bodies that we see on WWF.
I am talking about people who are fit. And fitness and exercise are just
two sides of the same coin. They both go hand in hand.
In order to stay fit you need exercise and in order to exercise you need
to be fit. But just because you are not fit now, it does not mean that
you shouldn’t exercise.
And just like that, just because you do not have any visible excess fat
on your body right now, it does not mean that you need no exercise.
Exercise is the best way to keep obesity, cardio vascular disorders,
hypertension and all those lifestyle-related disorders under control.
First of all let us get one point straight, exercise does not
necessarily mean pumping metal. If you do have the time to go to a
gymnasium everyday, then that is well and good.
But I suppose most of us do not have the time for a regular work out in
a gym. So the other alternative is to do it at home of course.
But whether it is at home or at a multi-gym, there is something that I
want to tell you. Whatever you are doing, you must try and do it
regularly.
Consistency is very important for an exercise routine to have the
desired effect on our body. Getting started is the easy part, it is
sticking to a regular exercise routine that is difficult and this is
what makes most people give up in between.
Most people get on to a beautiful start. They buy track suits and
gym-wear, running shoes and a whole lot of other gear. Their first day
at the gym is almost a celebration.
Then as the days go on, they find it increasingly difficult to meet the
domestic and professional demands and so their routine slows down and
finally comes to a complete workout burn out. In other words, they stop
working out completely.
It is a universal fact that the most chosen time for work outs is the
evenings. If you can stick to work out in the evenings then it is well
and good. But most of us find ourselves exhausted in the evenings. We
find ourselves physically and mentally drained. And at that time our
bodies will be just too tired for a work out.
The result is that after the first few days of working out, the interest
just dwindles away. The other reason is that in the evenings a thousand
and one things may crop up and then there is hardly time for a warm up.
So it is best to set aside some time for exercise in the morning itself.
There are two advantages of setting apart time in the morning. The first
advantage is that in the morning our bodies are fresh and full of
energy. Now over here I want to make one point clear.
There is a popular misconception that exercise depletes the
body of energy but the case is just the opposite. Exercise pumps up more
blood through the different parts of the body and warms up the body, so
in fact, after exercise we feel more charged and ready to face the
challenges of the day.
The second advantage is that in the morning we can plan for the whole
day without letting the exercise routine affect the rest of our
activities.
What about those of us who have never worked out before? In
such cases you might need to start off under the personal supervision of
an instructor and that may require that you go to a gym. But what I
would suggest is that there are two simple things that any one can do
for which you do not need the help of any instructor.
You know what these are? They are walking and swimming. Any body can
walk and those of you who know how to swim can swim. For these two
activities you do not need much gear and experts say that these two
exercises have no side effects and are excellent stress busters.
So in the morning wake up just half an hour earlier, put on your walking
shoes and hit the roads. Most roads will be less crowded at this hour
and less polluted too. It is a wonderful way to start a day.
