A Helpful Website & Blog

I would like to introduce a blog I found while surfing the technorati website. The blog is titled Health Life and takes you through 16 amazing tips to looking and feeling great. The tips start out with the basics incorporating safety tips,such as starting out slow with out becoming over aggressive. Then it takes you into helpful hints like keeping a journal, keeping your exercise plan detailed. The site also provides the warnings of exercising like always making sure you stretch, drink plenty of water, and never skip meals. Most importantly the blog reminds you to enjoy the kind of exercising you are doing. On the side bar of the blog there are links to previous post that give you the answers to fitness myths and tips on how to get a beach ready body.

Next I would like to introduce a website titled Exercise Life Tips. The website runs you through the types of exercising like core,calorie burning,aerobic, weight training, and cardio. It offers a brief description about everyone of them. It also discusses how exercise is beneficial to your health. The site also talks about exercising on a budget because that can be an issue for many.

I found both the blog and the website very informative. I think they both offer a lot of good tips for beginners and for people who want to fine tune their workout routine. I especially like the blog because it not only talks about exercising, but also factors in the health aspects such as not skipping meals and also the safety measures such as always remembering to stretch first.

If your interested in fitness definitely take the time to view these two links:)

Why Exercise?


People tend to make excuses on why not to exercise,so I thought I would give you some reasons why you should exercise. Besides the obvious to loose weight,exercising regularly can benefit your health. Exercising for 3-4 days a week for at least 30 minutes will lower your risk of heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. It will also help to lower cholesterol and high blood pressure. Aside from disease prevention it will boost your strength level and gain energy for every day life. Depending on your fitness goals you can choose to join a gym and get a personal trainer or you can choose to workout at home by yourself or with a friend. It's always beneficial to have a friend to workout with for motivation and support. Exercising for 30 minutes a day could be as simple as taking your dog for a walk around the neighborhood. As long as your doing some sort of physical activity you are benefiting your health.
