Might sound wrong to tell you to eat at night but if you are a night eater who cannot kick the habit, it is far better to PLAN your night snack and allow for it in your daily calories. A study done at St Louis University found that people who binged at night were better able to control themselves when they ate a predetermined snack 90 minutes after dinner.
A cinnamon scone from a coffee place can have 480 calories. And will it keep you full for at least 1/3 of your day?? Because for most women, that is 1/3 of your entire day. Fir most men, 1/4. You could have had 3 scrambled egg whites, two turkey sausages, 2 pieces of toast and an orange.
Sometimes it is just taking the time to think it out before you reach for that quick easy item.
I see a lot of people working their abs in all kinds of ways. -some good, some crazy and some dangerous.
If you are not sure what the best moves are – trust me they are not what you learned in 7th grade and they don’t take a lot of time – but booking a personal training session or two can get you the right advice to keep it safe.
And mix up WHEN you do your ab workout. Studies have shown that people who always do them at the end of their workout shortchange themselves on the quality of their moves.
Strength training is not about doing some difficult, maybe dangerous for you move and aching for days. It is about challenging yourself but in a controlled manner and then progressing when that becomes easy.
You don’t start in college, you start in pre-school. And the gym is the same. Start where you are, wherever that is and you will be in the right place with an easy path to progress.
Here is a video of me doing the cable row showing how the exercise can progress as you become more stable.
So I was out getting coffee yesterday and there is a fast food restaurant right next door and I see a dead rat up against their building. GROSS but then I see a giant grease mark (a sign of rodent activity) along their roof line meaning the dead guy probably isn’t the only one around.
So if the trans fat, the poor fitting clothes and the early death — not to mention a zillion health problems — isn’t quite getting you to stop eating it – maybe that will.
