Body Conditioning is simple exercise routine and detoxification
practice to either improved normal performance, as in physical
therapy, or in preparation for sports performance. To get
good fitness results, you do not have to submit to a regime
of tortuous forced reps or injury-inducing high intensity
workouts. Our
Body Conditioning is designed to develop natural fitness and
to correct postural imbalances that can lead to injuries.

later in the day, and in few days you will improve your muscular

required for your body to perform optimally, no matter what
kind of physical of mental activity you do.
Core
Nutrition
Most
people begin an exercise program designed for weight loss with
the intention of sticking with it. However, the majority give
up after six months, deciding they simply don't have the time
to exercise regularly. Losing
weight and keeping it off is a real challenge for most people.
That's why it's important to exercise daily and have a balanced
nutrition program. Balance nutrition is very simple, a little
planning and picking up some healthy snacks can prevent your stomach
from steering you into a really unhealthy food choice.
We
can help you find ways to decrease calories but still consume
the foods you enjoy. We can suggest daily exercises to help you
change old habits for new ones. It's important to remember that
losing even a relatively small amount of weight can make a real
improvement in reducing your risk for diabetes and other serious
conditions.
There
are three universal principles that apply to anyone:
balance, moderation and consistency.
With
all the different exercises programs and diets out there right now,
it's easy to become confused about what to eat. Pick up almost any
magazine and you will find an article on dieting or food. What I
find astonishing is that everybody seems to have a different answer.
Who do you believe? Everybody is different, so I cannot answer that
question. But I believe there are three universal principles that
apply to anyone: balance, moderation and consistency. For instance,
when we talk about following a diet: Balance means
getting the right combination of protein, carbohydrates, and fat
in your meals. Moderation means eating the correct
quantity of food required by your body to perform with great efficiency.
Consistency means developing the discipline to
follow your diet on a daily basis.
Balance
Carbohydrates
- Carbohydrates are our primary source of energy; they should be
carefully selected and included in each meal. The average diet has
too many refined carbohydrates. Technology has increased the degree
to which foods are refined, and the result is too much low-fibre,
high carbohydrate food. Eat more unrefined carbohydrates such as
whole grains, beans, vegetables and fruits. Eat fewer refined carbohydrates
such as flour and sugar.
Protein
- Most people tend to neglect their protein consumption. Everyone
(not just bodybuilders!) needs protein to survive. Without protein,
muscles cannot repair and they begin to break down. Eat more protein
from sources like fish, chicken, turkey, and beans. Eat less protein
from high-fat sources of red meat and dairy products.
Fat
- Fat is essential. In the quest for a low-fat diet, we have forgotten
about essential fatty acids (EFA's), which are the "good" fats.
EFA's are responsible for numerous bodily functions. The "bad" fats
are the saturated fats; they are responsible for heart disease and
high cholesterol. Eat more EFA's from sources like fish, nuts, seeds,
and olive oil. Try to eat fewer saturated fats from sources like
butter, sunflower oil, and cheese. When one of the above nutrients
is missing or in excess, it creates an imbalance. Finding a balance
among carbohydrates, protein and fat is a personal process. Some
people have a higher metabolic rate and need more energy from carbohydrates
and fat. Others need fewer carbohydrates because they have a sluggish
metabolism. Experiment with different ratios, but as a general rule,
eat more carbohydrates than protein.
Moderation
The massive
quantity of food available makes it very easy to overeat. You have
to learn to eat portions that are the right size for your needs.
A professional athlete that trains every day for hours will need
a lot more food than someone who sits at a desk all day. Eat only
until you feel satisfied, not to the point of feeling "stuffed".
Remember that your body requires only enough food to meet its energy
requirements; anything else is excess calories. With this simple
fact in mind, eat portions that are consistent with your weight
goals. Eat less if you are trying to lose body fat, and eat more
if you are trying to gain muscle. Remember to maintain balance,
do not cut out all the fat in your diet in order to eat less.
Consistency
Applying
the principles of balance and moderation to your meals is useless
unless you apply them with consistency. Developing a lean, healthy
body is a long-term process that requires discipline. If you eat
a moderate, balanced diet only sometimes, it is almost impossible
to make improvements in your health and fitness. This does not mean
that you can never eat candy again. It just means that you should
make them an occasional treat. The key is to maintain balance and
moderation in the long-run.
Finding
YOUR eating plan is a process of trial and error. I am confident
that if you follow the principles of balance, moderation and consistency,
you will succeed.
By
creating a firm and strong stomach, you will stabilize the
spine so it acts like a solid foundation for sustaining a
good body posture. Core exercise will also tone your torso
and abs and keep your lower back healthy, by improving your
posture.
By helping you to function better and improving your posture,
an effective core exercises program can help stave off painful
and debilitating problems. The goal of core training is to
work the area that supports your trunk and spine.Regardless
your age or physical activity, its crucial to develop
strong core muscles because they comes into play, just about
every time you move any part of your body.
There
are sound and valid anatomical reasons for doing core strengthening,
which are easy to see, once you understand the relationship
between the stomach muscles and the spine. A strong, stable
core can make any sport, like tennis, running, swimming, golf
and skating, easier. For example, if your spine acts as a
powerful base for your legs, you will be able to put more
power behind each movement of body with less effort.
If
your core is strong, your lower AB muscles will be drawn in
towards the spine and help you sit up straight. In essence,
core training is an intelligent training structure, because
it strengthens weak muscles and imbalances from the inside
out.
