What to Do When Fitness Goes Bad

Whenever you are working out, there is a chance for injury.  Even if you don't injure yourself, working out creates sore muscles.  You need to prepare for the possibility that you will have pain in your life.

It doesn't take a geneous to know that most over the counter drugs are probably not real good for you.  At best, they don't hurt you, but I want a better option.  Fortunately, there is another option.  You can get a natural pain reliever.  Do some research and you are sure to find some natural pain relievers that you can feel good about.

I know this is a short post, but I just wanted to share a few thoughts on natural pain relief.

Thanks for visiting us on the web!

Weekend health woes

The weekend is here . . . wooo hooo!  I did so well during the week, but today the efforts to eat health took a big step backwards.  Has anybody else noticed how hard it is to eat well and be healthy when there is little or no structure.  During the week, I get up at the same time, eat the same time, go to work at the same time, and come home at the same time.  On the weekends, anything goes.  This usually means I am doing something until I get to the point of starvation then eat whatever is at hand - not good.

One of the best things you can do do try to keep your diet regular on the weekends is to have a plan.  Even if you don't have to get up at a specific time to get ready for work, do it anyways.  This will help you start your daily routine.  Assuming this daily routine is healthy, you can start having good weekends on your diet as well.

There are a couple references you may want to check out.  The first one is for my Canadian friends.  The second one for all the men out there who are looking to lose a few pounds.  I hope they help.

Why does good for you food taste so bad?

I am starting my third day of healthy eating and living.  The weekend went fairly well, but left me wondering "why does food that is good for you taste so bad?"  Seriosly - I just had a breakfast of water soaked raw almonds.  I know they are good for me and all, but why can't something that is good for me taste better.

One of the reasons healthy food doesn't taste as good is the sugar.  Like it or not, sugar tastes good.  And so does fat.  What makes it worse is that our normal diets of processed foods that are high in sugar and fat can actually desensitize our taste buds so naturally sweet things like berries don't taste as good because they just can't compete with processed sugars on the sweetness scale.  As the next few days and weeks go by, I know that my taste buds will adapt and healthy things will start tasting better.  Until then, I will just keep moving ahead with my bland tasting health food.

Somehow, I feel just a little bit better about health food knowing it will get better.  I just wish the transformation could be faster.  Even with more sensitive taste buds, I'm not sure raw almonds are ever going to taste all that good though . . . I guess I just have to suck it up and do what's best for my body.

Have a healthy day!

When in Rome . . . run away screaming!

I just watched "When in Rome".  The movie looked really good when I saw the preview, but as with most movies, it didn't live up to the expectations.  It just seems that too often all of the good scenes and funny lines are used in the previews and the rest of the movie falls woefully short of expectations.

The concept of the movie is ok, but it just turns into a jumbled mess.  If you want to find out more about it, here is a link for the movie:  http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1185416/

If you choose to rent this movie, I hope you like it.  Don't have too high of expectations and it may meet them.  That's all for now.  More random topics tomorrow . . . or whenever I get the itch to write again.

Thanks for reading!

How Much Does Acai Berry Juice Cost?

Getting healthy doesn't have to be expensive. When people think of making dietary changes they often think of the added costs of fruits and vegetables. But what they don't realize is that you're not just adding those things to your diet (and your grocery list) but substituting them for other, less healthy foods. In the end you're really not spending that much more.

That is the case with acai berry juice. Acai berry juice costs about $30 a month if you drink an ounce a day. At first that can sound expensive but if you think about what you are substituting that for you might be saving money. Are you cutting out coffee or soda? Most likely you spend that much a month on just one of those drinks. Try drinking acai berry juice in replace of your normal energy lifting drink. Not only will get the added energy with out the caffeine you'll also be giving your body a boost with fiber and antioxidants.
