Make exercise a daily habit – 10 tips

by admin in Healthy Living 0 comments
Whether you’re looking for motivation to start exercising, or are interested in changing up your current routine, here are 10 tips for making exercise a daily habit. Piece your workout together. You don’t need to get all your exercise at one time. Ten minutes morning, noon, and night can give much of the same benefit as 30 minutes all at once. Exercise with a friend. Finding a workout partner can help keep you on track and motivate you to get out the door. Keep it brisk. When you walk, make it brisk, since this may help control weight better than walking at a leisurely pace. What is brisk enough? Walk as though you are meeting someone for lunch and you are a little late. Move your feet before you eat. Hit the gym or go for a 20-minute walk with coworkers, and have lunch afterward. Try a pedometer. Step-counters (pedometers) are an easy, inexpensive way to motivate yourself to be active. Work up to 10,000 steps per day. Turn off the TV, computer, and smart phone. Cutting back on screen time is a great way to curb your “sit time.” Move around instead, by visiting the gym or even cleaning […]

If you thought your sleeping position can only help you deal with those nagging aches and pains or aid in better sleep, then you would be amazed to know sleeping in a particular position can also work wonders for chronic constipation. Nutritionist Pooja Makhija recently took to Instagram to share a simple and effective hack to tackle persistent constipation in people. Chronic constipation is irregular bowel movement or difficulty in passing stools that persists for several weeks or longer. You have constipation when you are having fewer than three bowel movements a week. If you have been dealing with lumpy or hard stools and having a hard time emptying your bowels for a long time now, you can try this hack. Makhija recommends side sleeping for relief from constipation and explains how it works in her social media post. Several studies vouch for the benefits of side sleeping in this regard. Here’s how this sleeping position helps with chronic constipation. “Although our bodies are largely symmetrical on the outside, the placement of our organs internally is largely asymmetrical. Therefore, left side sleeping aids movement of the faecal matter. Gravity causes the faecal matter to move from the ascending colon into […]

6 Natural Ways to Lower Blood Pressure

by admin in Healthy Living 0 comments
Lifestyle changes critical to proper BP control One in three U.S. adults has high blood pressure, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This means the force of blood pushing against their artery walls is too high, which can damage the arteries and greatly increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, heart failure and kidney failure. Lowering systolic blood pressure to a maximum of 120 mmHg has been shown to reduce these risks. There are two ways to accomplishing this: lifestyle changes and medications. While some people can lower blood pressure with lifestyle changes alone, the two approaches are complementary. “Blood pressure management is 70% lifestyle and 30% medications. If you don’t make lifestyle changes, don’t bother taking blood pressure medications, because they won’t work effectively,” says preventive cardiologist Luke Laffin, MD.   How to lower blood pressure naturally The term “lifestyle changes” implies you will need to change your habits to bring your blood pressure down. Broadly speaking, these modifications are natural — non-pharmaceutical — ways of lowering blood pressure. Six methods have been proven effective in clinical studies, and two others are recommended:   1. Eat less salt “Cutting your salt intake is probably the most […]

by admin in Healthy Living 0 comments
What you eat after your workout can be just as important as what you eat before it. The foods you choose to eat after exercising can help your body recover faster, reduce muscle soreness, and improve your overall performance. In this article, we will discuss eight of the best foods to eat after working out to help your body recover and replenish its energy stores. #1 Protein-rich food: Protein is essential for muscle repair and growth, making it a crucial nutrient to consume after working out. Aim to consume around 20-30 grams of protein within 30 minutes after exercising. Good sources of protein include chicken, fish, lean meats, eggs, and plant-based sources such as beans and tofu. #2 Salmon: Salmon is a great source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids, which can help reduce inflammation and support heart health. It also contains vitamin D, which is important for bone health and immune function.

Tips to prevent back pain and maintain spinal health

by admin in Healthy Living 0 comments
In certain rare cases, back pain can also be caused by a tumour. Therefore, on this world spine day, we share a few tips that can help you maintain spinal health and can prevent back pain.   Back pain today and especially lower back pain have become a chronic ailment in India. The disease is no longer limited to the elderly but is also increasing among the youth. Long working hours along with a sedentary lifestyle is putting too much strain on our spinal discs and back muscles and has highlighted the need for us to take steps and prevent any long-term complications. Several reasons like sports injuries, excessive stress over flexible joints and congenital spinal problems can cause chronic back pain among children and teenagers. Additionally, substance abuse too can cause adolescents to experience back pain. According to several recent studies, it has been found that adolescents who smoke cigarettes, drink alcohol and are suffering from mental health conditions like depression and anxiety are likely to suffer from back pain more frequently. For instance, 14-15-year-olds who consume alcohol and smoke tobacco experience back pain more than once a week than those who rarely or never had pain. This combination […]

How to get good at exercise: The secret is right in front of you

by admin in Healthy Living 0 comments tags: becoming stronger through repetition, expecting different results, how to get good at exercise, particular set of exercises, process and results in lifting, secret is right in front, small world outside the gym
There’s a saying popular in the small world outside the gym that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. That if an approach doesn’t work, try another one. Inside the gym, what works is what gets you somewhere. How you get there is much less important than showing up. So what’s the relationship between process and results in lifting? At first blush, the sport feels like a chase. We work out to reach goals: getting strong, looking good. So much of what we focus on and measure — heavy poundage in a powerlifting competition, body fat percentage, the size of your quads — are numbers we’re striving to reach. But while chasing results might be what gets us to start lifting, the sport is all about the process. More specifically, it’s about repetition. For all of the variety of programs people take on to reach their various goals, we all generally follow the same rough path — progressive overload via selected exercises, done over time — to get there. It’s not like the real world: the repetitive process shouldn’t just be rejected if things aren’t working. Rather, it should be […]

Life expectancy of Americans is now 76.6 years old, according to a 2021 study. That age has decreased since 2019, at which point an average life was 78.86 years of age. That’s not a very impressive lifespan when you consider that one woman in France, Jeanne Louise Calment, was recorded as having lived to the incredible age of 122. Calment lived 43.14 years longer than most Americans, which is quite a big difference. Blowing out 122 candles is not a common occurrence, and Calment was actually the oldest person in the entire world, making her the only individual on record to kick up her heels and celebrate more than 120 years on planet earth.
