If your body was a car, are you driving a vette? Print E-mail
99.jpgMany people are determined to turn over a new page and get into shape, lose weight, start eating right and exercising more. Your body is like the car you drive...you have to keep it turned up and use the proper gas to keep it running smoothly.The only way to do this successfully with your BODY is to be ready to make some CHANGES in your life on a permanent basis. Hiring a Houston in home personal trainer may be one thing to consider.

I read a quote that said (and I paraphrase): "the definition of insanity is to do things the same way but expect to have a different results".  This quote is very relevant with regards to personal training because a person has to choose to have a healthier lifestyle if they want their body to look different. In simple terms, you cannot eat the same high fat, high calorie diet and workout only once a week and expect your body to change.
 
I know many individuals who think that an hour of working out with a personal trainer entitles them to a cocktail that evening. They are not really making changes when they workout only long enough to burn off the excess calories they are ingesting. It is when a person makes a LONG TERM, conscious effort to make small, but healthy changes, that they will find their goals more attainable and long lasting.
 
Some simple choices for the new year recommended by this Houston personal trainer are the following:
1) Drink more water ( I drink purified water)
2) Walk the dog every day for an hour
3) Take a multiple vitamin
4) Eat a wide variety of low fat, unprocessed foods
5) Avoid sugar and sugary foods and drinks
6) Eat more vegetables every day
7) Hire a personal trainer who offers a guarantee of long term success
