by admin in Healthy Living 0 comments
Nutritionist shared a post about intermittent fasting and how it could harm the body.   Intermittent fasting (IF) has been one of the most popular diet plans for decades. It involves fasting for a number of hours and eating only during a certain window in the day. There are many forms of doing IF, such as restricting the number of hours to eat and fast. While many IF experts suggest that this eating pattern involves altering a person’s lifestyle rather than just what to eat healthily. But it doesn’t work for all. Celebrity nutritionist Rujuta Diwekar shared an Instagram post about IF and how it could harm the body. “Diets don’t work because they are not sustainable, are restrictive in nature, don’t take into account the food systems of your region or daily practicalities of life, etc. Focus on developing good habits for good health and sustainable weight loss. Keep it simple and common sensical with food,” the expert wrote in the caption. In the post, she added, “Weight loss during fasting comes from losses in muscle, bone density, etc.”   View this post on Instagram A post shared by Rujuta Diwekar (@rujuta.diwekar) She quoted the latest research about IF […]

5 ways to live a healthier lifestyle

by admin in Healthy Living 0 comments
Maybe you think you know all the ways to live a healthier lifestyle. You take the stairs instead of the elevator, skip desserts and go to the doctor when you are sick.   But we can all do better. Here are some ideas to jumpstart new habits.   1. Diet. Eat plenty of fresh, non-processed foods, drink 64 ounces of water every day, and limit caffeine and alcohol intake.   2. Exercise. Get 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity weekly, or 30 minutes most days. Also get two-to-three 20-30 minute sessions of strength-training per week, focusing on major muscle groups.   3. Sleep. Try to get 7-8 hours every night and try to keep a regular sleep-wake cycle – go to bed and get up at the same time every day.   4. Socialization. It reduces stress and anxiety and improves mental functioning – and that helps guard against depression, heart disease and dementia.   5. Have a primary care physician. Annual visits are important for all ages because they are intended to detect disease early, before it leads to serious consequences. These are really the basics, the foundation for good health.

Stress is absolutely manageable and can be kept under control. Expert yogini suggests lifestyle changes in order to manage stress and keep anxiety at bay   Stress: A phenomenon that everybody knows yet very few people have a solution for. Life has its own challenges, some more intense than others and without the right grounding techniques, stress can become a chronic, seemingly unmanageable condition. In fact, so many people truly believe that a stress-filled life is normal. Short-term stress is normal and can push you to do what you need to. Long-term stress (above 1-2 months) on the other hand causes depletion of life quality leading to a subtle process of inflammation in the body that can lead to severe diseases. To learn how to tackle stress,  Radhika Iyer, the founder of Anahata Organic, and yogini by passion, shares the following hacks to deal with stress and anxiety naturally:   Pranayama (breath work) Your breath is connected to every single mood or emotion you feel. Think about it: when you’re excited, scared, angry, anxious or upset your breath speeds up. When you are happy, relaxed or focused your breath slows down.

Build Greater Forearm Strength and Size with these 4 Exercises

by admin in Workouts 0 comments
This underrated muscle group can benefit from these muscle-building moves.   If you’ve been around the gym trenches, you have heard the term if you cannot grip it, you can’t rip it, and forearms play a big part in it. Forearm strength and endurance are critical in all grip-intensive exercises like deadlifts, chin-ups, and all row variations. The grip often fails before the intended muscle group trained is fatigued. Forearm strength must be addressed and is a common weakness for many lifters. Because forearm strength and endurance are involved in many upper and lower body lifts, it pays to show them a little extra attention. And stronger forearms mean more weight or repetitions on your grip-intensive exercise for more gains. Here we’ll dive into why the forearms are challenging to build, the benefits of training forearms, and four forearm exercises for your forearm flexing pleasure.   Why Are Forearms Hard To Grow? Many forearm muscles, small and large, have varying fiber types, but most forearm muscles are slow-twitch dominant. Slow twitch dominant muscle groups like the forearms and calves are challenging to grow because they are endurance based because they rely on a steady supply of oxygenated blood to operate. […]

Smart Tips for Losing Weight and Keeping It Off

Losing weight is about more than what you eat   Now you can have your (rice) cake and eat it too. It is possible to lose weight and keep it off — who says you can’t have both? Registered dietitian Nicole Hopsecger, RD, LD, shares six tips for losing weight while maintaining your health.   6 tips for losing weight and keeping it off   Restrict calories in a tailored program. Not all calories, or bodies, are the same. The right diet for weight loss can be different combinations of carbohydrates, proteins and fats. “I personalize a patient’s diet, and work with them on an ongoing basis so that I can adjust based on their personality and what is medically correct for them,” says Hopsecger. Realize that a restrictive diet is a temporary measure. Restricting calories is only the first step and not a permanent solution. Once you lose weight, you should switch to a more moderate calorie intake balanced with regularly scheduled exercise activity. Reach out for support. If you have enough discipline and self-support to maintain your diet plan, that’s great. “I also recommend group support, as it’s been found to provide long-term success,” says Hopsecger. Find support […]
