Watch your back

Scott Hunt — Mon, 09 Aug 2010 22:47:59 +0000

If you sit for long hours in front of your computer or at a desk, it is important to take care of your back.

80% of people will have some form of back pain sometime in their life.
More often than not it’s completely avoidable, so here’s a few simple ways you can avoid the pain: Adopting the right posture when you sit is crucial for your back. You should be sitting with your spine straight and not in a slouching manner. Use an ergonomic chair or even a pillow to give you added support. Sitting in one position for long hours can be daunting for your back, so take a few breaks by walking around or doing stretching exercises. Wear the right footwear which helps to distribute your weight evenly without putting pressure on any particular part of your body. Ladies if you must wear heels, make sure you keep your feet happy and comfortable. The wrong footwear can give you bad back pain!

Above all else the number one way to look after your back is to exercise. Before or after work, get out and move your body enough to make up for eight hours at a desk. And remember, when it comes to your health:

If you don’t use it you will lose it!

So if you’re not using it, isn’t it time you took a look at getting a Gold Coast Personal Trainer?

There’s heaps of Gold Coast Personal Trainers out there, so what should you look for in a personal trainer?

Moreover, he has the ability to make clients comfortable and gives them due priority too.

Searching for the healthiest milk?

Scott Hunt — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 20:10:35 +0000

There are heaps of great cows milks available that are virtually fat free. Although good for weight loss, many of these have been so processed it can turn many health fanatics off it. Soy milk on the other hand has been processed a lot less, has the same amount of protein as cow’s milk, and is full of isoflavones, lecithin and Vitamin E as well. It has a lesser amount of saturated fat when compared to many cow’s milk and is recommended for those who have a dairy allergy. Sure some taste pretty average, but there’s enough brands out that you should be able to find one you like.

Lose weight the colourful way

The latest Australian promotion of healthy eating states that everybody should eat ‘ two servings of fruit and five servings of vegetables daily’ in order to get a daily intake of nutrients. But what if you love fruits but hate the sight of greens at meal times? Although this is a good guideline to ensure that you eat right, remember that variety is the real spice of life. Even if your daily intake of fruits is more than vegetables, your body will still get all the nutrition it needs to perform daily tasks. Ensure that you get fruits and vegetables with different colours. Fruits and vegetables with bright colours like purple and orange have a higher level of antioxidants and are rich in vitamins as well. Eating right, will keep you in optimum health and help you lose weight faster.

Nuts – Good or bad for weight loss?

Scott Hunt — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 03:31:16 +0000

Are nuts good or bad for you and your weight loss? Nuts are usually not recommended for most people because of their high calorie and fat content. However the monounsaturated fats found in nuts are good for your heart and general health. They are great sources of fiber, vitamins, iron and other minerals. If you love to munch on nuts now and then, make sure that you choose walnuts and almonds over other varieties. Walnuts are high in omega 3 fatty acids, vitamins and magnesium whereas almonds are loaded with nutrients and are comparatively lower in fat content as well. Garnish your salad with a few nuts, enjoy a nut based dip or simply have a handful of nuts with raisins as a snack. That way, you give your body a lot of nutrients without feeling guilty afterwards about the calories.
