Top 5 Weight Loss Tips
- Be consistent. Exercise a minimum of 3-4 days a week and stick to it! Don't miss more than 2 days in a row.
- Keep a journal. A journal will show diet and workout patterns. You could include the type of workout, your stress level, food intake, sets or reps or any other information desired. A journal is for you but asking a fitness professional to evaluate it and make recommendations each week is a good idea. It will help you develop good habits and rid yourself of bad ones.
- Do 3-4 days of cardiovascular exercise. Strive for 20-60 minutes of cardiovascular exercise at 65-85% of your maximum heart rate. To calculate this, take 220 minus your age and multiply by .65 to .85. Use a heart rate monitor to make sure you are working at the proper level.
- Drink more water. Food will taste better, you will feel full sooner, and water with lemon is a natural thirst quencher. Are you thirsty or hungry?
- Be accountable. Write down your goals. Share them with others that support you. Find a workout partner that will challenge you and help you stick to your goal. It is harder to cancel when someone is counting on you to be there.
