Do you want to improve your how your body looks and feels? Who doesn't? Incorporate the following five tips into your daily routine and your body will immediately begin to look and feel different.
1. Take a Fish Oil Supplement Daily - Unless you eat 6-7 servings of fish each week chances are you are not getting adequate omega-3 fatty acids. The omega-3 acids found in fish oil help with joint lubrication, cognitive function, improved mood, and act as a fat burning powerhouse.
2. Drink More Water - Boring, but true. Eighty percent of your body is made up of water and requires it to survive, yet many of us do not drink enough. The recommended daily guideline is one ounce for every kilogram (2.2 pounds) of body weight. This means that a 135 pound female requires 61 ounces per day. When you are adequately hydrated your body is better able to burn fat and athletic performance will increase.
3. Exercise Regularly - It does not have to be every day, as little as 2x per week can make drastic improvements in your body and fitness levels. Regular exercise will also help relieve stress, improve your sleep quality, as well as trim some unwanted fat from your waist.
4. Foam Rolling - Do you get a weekly massage? Probably not, who can afford too? However, foam rolling is the next best thing. For roughly a $30 investment you can have a "poor man's" massage every day. Foam rolling daily will help to release tight and tense muscles, speed recovery from workouts, and improve range of motion.
5. Sleep - The average American gets about four to five hours of sleep per night and is significantly sleep deprived. By increasing your nightly average to seven or eight hours you will immediately feel better and more rested. You will also recover from your workouts faster, lose greater amounts of fat, and increase muscle definition. Not to mention that you will look younger because you will no longer have bags under your eyes. Lack of sleep will also promote the storage of fat on the hips, butt, thighs, and belly. Sleep is the single easiest lifestyle change for weight loss.
