Anti-ageing Fitness - 7 UP TO DATE Facts

Keeping up with ALL the anti-ageing talk whether it's around town or from the experts is massive! One says this, one says that. Then, the next thing you know, it's old news and they found something better. Or, find out a product or ingredient doesn't really work, or isn't has effective as they thought.

I have heard many people say they are overwhelmed with trying to keep up with the latest, most current talk on anti-aging and even harder is deciding what is truly effective, and truly cost effective.

Lets have a look at fitness facts on anti-aging and where we stand today.

What are the Fitness Facts on Anti-Aging Today?

FACT
 

You CAN slow down the aging process, and eliminate its negative effects through proper nutrition and effective hormone boosting, fat burning, muscle building workouts.

FACT

Much of the fat loss information you read in muscle building magazines is out of date.

FACT

Fat loss programs that require hours of cardio exercises will not in achieving anti-aging and fat loss goals. The most recent interval training research showed that interval training was the only method that helped women burn stomach fat during a 15-week fat loss study. And, the interval training group only trained half of the time of the slow, boring cardio group

FACT

Traditional exercise programs don't focus on strength training workouts in their instructions because most “experts” don't understand how strength training will help boost hormones and defy aging. Even if your program does recommend strength training, it is likely that you have been told to use the ineffective and outdated method of high reps and low weight (which does NOT aid in hormone production). That's not how women should train for anti-aging & fat loss. You'll find rep ranges that are scientifically proven to produce and regulate hormones, burn more fat, and build muscle in the Rejuvenation-Fitness Programs.

FACT

If you are committed to slowing the aging process, boosting your metabolism, getting defined muscles and a lean body, then you must include strength training in your workout programs. High intensity strength training exercises protect your lean muscle.

These are the facts: The way “experts” are telling you to train is not only getting you less than satisfactory results, but can actually be causing overuse injuries, and catabolic muscle loss, only continuing the cycle for fat gain, energy loss, and perpetuating the negative effects of aging.

Go for those interval training workouts!

One of the best foods for muscle building is:

Wheat Germ

Wheat germ contains a mixture of B vitamins: B1, B2, B3, and B6, B2 is a "mystery vitamin" that is been shown to increase muscle density. All B vitamins are essential for the proper cognitive functioning, and combined with magnesium, thee wheat germ acts as a mega "brain-booster" and muscle-builder.

Sprinkle wheat germ on salads, vegetables or in yogurt. You hardly taste it and you will get your fill of Vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant.

Sneak some into your child's cereal, as long as you don't put to much, they wont notice it's there!

It is possible some time from now, that the above current facts could change to old ones, as the experts continue researching and testing different strategies toward anti-ageing fitness and means of  ageing as gracefully as possible.

FRUIT SMOOTHIE is a milkshake style health drink housed with vitamins and nutrients instead of calories and unwanted fat. We know the importance of fruit in our diet but grabbing a piece of fruit is something most of us don't bother to do. Make a smoothie and your daily intake is replenished and out of the way.

Fruit smoothies of course can be purchased ready made. But the value of the fruit is less and will contain sugar, and too many can cause healthy problems in the heart and kidney.

Have some fun searching for great fruit smoothie recipes, shopping for beautiful ripe fruits. Making a smoothie at home and enjoying the natural untouched purity of the fruit. Here is a place for great smoothie recipes. Enjoy!

FUNCTIONAL HEALTH BEVERAGE which is basically vegetables. Personally I find it easier to eat a salad everyday, as most vegetable health drinks take a little time to get used to due to their taste.

There is a new health drink on the market these days called the Cell Renewal Formula. Fruit, vegetable extracts, herbs and other plant compounds are combined into a drinkable substance.

You can make vegetable drinks at home using a juice extractor. Add a whole apple, some fresh lemon juice. and honey to whatever combination you choose. This will help sweeten it up.

ENERGY DRINKS don't have a problem with taste but if you search the ingredients, you will see they consists of artificial sweeteners, caffeine or Ephedra. Sometimes all three of these ingredients can be found in one drink. Now it's true that most of these energy drinks replenish electrolytes but they don't have vitamins and nutrients. Drink these in moderation.

Save yourself precious dollars and cents. Give yourself the highest nutritional benefits and go natural with your health drinks.
