Weight Loss Tip of the Day... 7

Ok so we all know we need to work out to loose weight right... Well I am always asked how much time do I spend in a gym... An average workout for me usually runs about 2 hours... Holy Crap, right?... Well if I did not spend this much time in the gym I wouldn't see improvment... Keep in mind I am a personal trainer and am HIGHLY ACTIVE... And let's face it... Most people now-a-days do not fall into that bracket... Usually the people coming to me are moderatly active to just plain sedentary... So how much would it take for a sedintary individual to lose weight... Honestly, not much... It has been proven that when an indvidual leads a sedintary lifestyle all it takes to lose weight is 30min of moderate activity a day... In other words... 30min walking, swimming, hitting the local mall (usually you will spend more than 30 min there anyways)... Sounds simple right... Just remember 30 minutes DAILY... Not every other day... Not on the days I remember... Stay focused... Make a schedule... Plan activity into your day, everyday and you will do great and see great results

Happy Training!!!

Yes but you lead a highly sedentary lifestyle... What you need to do is keep a journal of your activity throughout the day... If you are sitting more than 5 hours (outside of work of course) a day, you have a sedentary lifestyle... And you also have a sedentary job... As do I (For NOW)... So that only contributes to the problem

Every day...that's a tough order, especially since winter in dawning. You're right of course. Thanks for the tip.

I gave you a ten. Would you have a second to take a look at something I've written? I'm in a contest and the most ten votes gets the book published. I'd love some honest feed back.

Thanks in advance,
