Your health & weight management is 80% nutrition and 20% workouts…!

 


Are you the one who thinks another way round and burning your body running or in the gym? Are you the one who is skipping meals and having black coffee to look leaner? Although it's not a ratio backed precisely by research papers but the meaning it conveys is widely accepted among Fitness Gurus and the medical fraternity. Consider running a car without lubricant or pushing an Ox to carry the load without food.

Healthy weight loss happens with a healthy calorie deficit. A healthy calorie deficit means you are restricting your unhealthy calorie (Candy, cola, sugar, refined carbs, fried items) intake but your body’s nutritional requirements are not compromised. Therefore you need to have foods which are nutritionally rich and low on calorie.

Diet and exercise both are complementary to each other. You eat well which helps you strengthen your muscles through exercise. Exercise boosts your metabolism. But you may control weight without workouts, not without proper diet and nutrition.No matter how hard you are working out, if you are not eating right you can't lose. To lose weight, if you do workouts without proper diet & nutrition you will lose your hard-earned muscles. It can be noticed in people who look leaner but skinny with sagging skin, poor hair, etc.

Also, you can never compensate for wrong dietary habits with over-exercise. Just to give you a heads up calories consumed in one "can of coca-cola" can be burnt by half an hour of walk..! Hence never think that you have a right to eat anything if you are working out. If you do exercise you should be doubly conscious about what you are putting into your body.

Hence the right blend of healthy eating and a moderate workout can help you lose weight.

Isn’t your camel important while crossing a desert?

  You must be still wondering about the relevance of above question. While the answer is quite simple and clear i.e. of course YES, the intention behind asking this need a little elaboration. It is quite clear that productivity, efficiency, and power only can sail you through the desert. But we keep forgetting this when it comes to our life. Replace the ‘camel’ with body and ‘dessert’ to life. What do you get? ISN’T YOUR BODY IMPORTANT WHILE CROSSING LIFE? As per WHO almost half of the world’s population has become obese...! Non communicable diseases (NCD), say differently lifestyle diseases has become largest cause of death. Almost 70% of global deaths are happening due to NCDs. In India 63 million people in India has become diabetic...! Consider crossing a dessert on a fat sick camel having tablets to walk another couple of miles…! Aren’t you doing same with your own life? I am amazed to see poor health and obesity becoming so common place today. None other than our lifestyle...

Double Portion… A blessing in Bible but not when you are eating…..!

  Double Portion… A blessing in Bible but not when you are eating…..! In Bible its said that, when someone receives ‘double portion’ he receives as much as twice from GOD what others have been given…..! But its not a great idea at your dining table. What I mean to say is; our PORTION SIZE of food (that is the amount of food we are having in one meal) is very-very important, if we want to be in shape for life long…..! Instead of being too selective about which cereal/vegetable/pulse/fruit to eat, it’s more important to focus on the quantity we eat in one meal. Ideally, we should have a palm size meal. Palm size meal means, only that much food which can accommodate in your palm. A palm size meal would be roughly couple of chapati plus a bowl of lentil plus a bowl of veggies. Its for a 80 kg weighing male. If you are shorter or female it could be even lower. But why portion size is so important? It’s simple...! Balance of Calorie needs of our body and our appetite. A palm si...

क्या आप वो हैं जो एक और तरीका सोचते हैं और अपने शरीर को चलाते हुए या जिम में जलते हैं? क्या आप वही हैं जो भोजन छोड़ रहे हैं और दुबले दिखने के लिए ब्लैक कॉफ़ी पी रहे हैं? हालाँकि, यह शोध पत्रों द्वारा सटीक रूप से समर्थित अनुपात नहीं है, लेकिन इसका अर्थ यह है कि फिटनेस गुरुओं और चिकित्सा बिरादरी के बीच व्यापक रूप से स्वीकार किया जाता है। भोजन के बिना भार उठाने के लिए स्नेहक के बिना कार चलाने या बैल को धक्का देने पर विचार करें। स्वस्थ वजन घटाने एक स्वस्थ कैलोरी घाटे के साथ होता है। एक स्वस्थ कैलोरी घाटा का मतलब है कि आप अपने अस्वास्थ्यकर कैलोरी (कैंडी, कोला, चीनी, परिष्कृत कार्ब्स, तली हुई चीजें) का सेवन सीमित कर रहे हैं, लेकिन आपके शरीर की पोषण संबंधी आवश्यकताओं से समझौता नहीं किया जाता है। इसलिए आपको ऐसे खाद्य पदार्थ खाने की आवश्यकता है जो पोषण से भरपूर हो और कैलोरी पर कम हो। आहार और व्यायाम दोनों एक दूसरे के पूरक हैं। आप अच्छी तरह से खाते हैं जो व्यायाम के माध्यम से आपकी मांसपेशियों को मजबूत करने में मदद करता है। व्यायाम आपके चयापचय को बढ़ा देता है। लेकिन आप उचित आहार और पोषण के बिना व...
