Combat Endurance Training

It’s all about building the foundation and being satisfied with little victories
It’s a simple formula but a formula that has helped pave the road to many successes.

I’ve been getting some great questions lately from e mail readers and I’m going to spend some time in e mails going over the answers to some of these.

Here goes…

Question-” I’ve lived a sedentary life style over the past 10 years. It’s given me a poor fitness level and lots of extra weight. I’m afraid to get started and unsure where to begin. Can you give me a few simple ideas to move forward to get myself back into shape?”

This is a great question. I wonder how many people are in the same boat and because of fear and not knowing what to do or who to turn to they continue to live their lives without giving themselves a chance to be healthier.

There are a few simple things that can help get you up and running.

Becoming healthy is often times a matter of getting 3 things in check. They are your diet, your exercise, and your mindset.

Let’s take diet first. If you continue to add more and more lbs over the years then it’s important that you change your diet.

The easiest steps to take are to write down what you are eating and have some way to measure your calorie intake everyday. Losing weight is about burning more calories than you take in.

Another important part of your successful weight loss plan is to drink lots of water each day. In addition to drinking water make it a point to cut back on sugar drinks and alcohol.

When starting any exercise program it’s a good idea to start slowly and give yourself a chance to experience some success. That success may come in the form of weight loss, more strength, more energy, fitting into your clothes better.

Look for these small changes and be happy for your effort.

A great option for starting a workout program is to begin walking on a daily basis. Walking for as little as 10 minutes is a good start. Just get moving and once you start to feel better add some time and some speed to your walking regimen

Why is mindset so important. There’s a few reasons that you’ll want to understand.

Before starting anything it’s important to believe that you can do it and also spend some time seeing the goal already accomplished.

Let your mind help you achieve your goal by feeding it something positive to work on. It’s amazing to watch as your mind takes your positive outlook and pictures and creates the reality that you desire.

Try these simple ideas to give you success with your healthy living goals.
