Health Clubs

Connecting you to the Best of Hampton Roads

     There are no magic cures.  You have to work hard to lose weight by reducing your caloric intake and/or exercising.  Having trouble getting motivated to exercise at home?  Finding the right Health Club may be just what you need.  Bringing a friend can also  help a lot. Having a special goal like a wedding or reunion is a big incentive to get in shape. It has been proven that working out can add years to your life, and being in shape will definitely help you fight heart disease. The trick is to get started.  Once you do and see how much better you look and feel you could get hooked!  Just don't be too hard on yourself. If you aren't losing pounds on the scale, you are probably turning fat into muscle.  Muscle weighs more but burns off calories faster.   If you miss a workout, that's ok, just get back to your health club or home routine as soon as you can. Do it for yourself and do it for the ones you love.

How do thin people stay thin?  I recently read a few habits of skinny folk and they made a lot of sense.  One of them was that when they are full they don't continue to eat.  So eat slowly and when you are half way through, think about how you feel and if you actually do need to finish the food on your plate.  Another tip is that they don't consider a few hunger pangs to be an emergency. The best tip I think was that thin people don't eat more because of their feelings In other words, they don't indulge in emotional eating.  When you read about the celebs they usually eat less or hit the gym more frequently.  Remember this - "Nothing is going to taste as good as feeling fit does!"

What drink will keep your brain young? The answer is tea. Green tea or black tea. Hot tea or iced tea. It doesn't matter. Tea may be the brain's fountain of youth. Regular consumption of either green or black tea seems to reduce the risk of age-related degenerative brain disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, according to researchers from the Douglas Hospital Research Centre at McGill University in Canada. That's right. You may be able to protect your brain later from the ravages of dementia by drinking tea now.

How can you look slim without dieting?

1. Suck in your stomach. (This is also good exercise.)
2. Sit up straight. (Your Momma was right)
3. Wear a single color. Dressing in monochromatic tones. Ex. Different shades of blue.
4. Wear dark denim jeans and heels.
5. Tuck your shirt in and do not wear oversized shirts.
6. Long necklaces are slimming.
