Zap the Flab with Fitbit

Whether it’s to get that beach body you’ve always wanted, to fit into that little black dress or to incite some jealousy in your ex-girlfriend or ex-boyfriend, getting fit has always been a hard objective to stick to no matter what the ultimate goal. The excuses are many and the same – “I have no time”, “I work too much”, “gym membership is too expensive”… or perhaps many of us are not acknowledging the hard truth, “I am lazy”. However, perhaps what we all need is a new motivator, a refreshing push in the right direction, and the gang at Fit Bit Inc. are more than happy to fill that role.

HAPPY FOOD

You’re not feeling the best, you’ve had a bad day and nothing sounds more appealing than a packet of Tim-Tams. Well you’re not alone. Wanting to eat something to ‘cheer yourself up’, without demolishing a box of chocolate donuts, is a common battle for all of us. Failing to resist office treats, that always seem to be lurking near by, is one of the main reasons we put on those extra sneaky kilos.

Take a Walk

It is said that walking is one of the easiest forms of exercise, it can be done anywhere at anytime and benefits each person greatly. It is an easy and convenient way to add the essential exercise to our lives, even though it may be a low impact way to do so. With so many different areas in which we live, next to a beach, walking track, leafy area or even a residential suburb, walking is a great way to connect with nature, explore the world you live in and improve your overall wellbeing.

Exercise Excuses

I have written a few posts on exercise today and how beneficial it is for each of us. I’m hoping that they have encouraged you all to try new forms of exercise (like canoeing) and give half an hour of your time to a quick walk. Though, the main thing that stops us from continuing with exercise routines and keeping motivated is our human ability to make excuses to not do something. Our lives are all busy and it’s too easy to convince ourselves why we can’t do something, especially when it involves exercising.
