You have come a long way through your fitness plan by religiously following your yearly fitness plan, and now successfully embarked upon day 151 of the same. Let us spend another healthy day with practices that will ensure you a physically and emotionally fit lifestyle.
Morning: Right after you wake up, gulp down a glass of water. This will clean your system and refresh you. Don t skip brushing, as you cannot afford to begin the day with bad breath and an unclean mouth. Freshen up with some lauki juice. Apart from detoxification and weight loss, there are a variety of benefits that you can get from this juice.
Healthy Recipes
Breakfast: Begin your day with a delicious breakfast of healthy leafy salad. Apart from aiding weight loss, green vegetables themselves have a bounty of benefits that can really help you to stay fit throughout the year. Light, delicious and filing, this breakfast is bound to energize you for the day.
Lunch: Since we are focusing on going green today, the best lunch recipe that comes to my mind first is that of palak saag (spinach). A staple food of Punjab, palak has a variety of benefits. Rich in calcium, iron and vitamin A, it helps to boost the body s haemoglobin levels naturally. You can team it up with some spinach raita to get that zing in your healthy lunch recipe for the day.
Snacks: It is best to stick to some light multigrain crackers for your evening snack. You can munch o these crispy tit-bits guilt free without compromising on your weight loss plans. Also, they get ready in no time!
Dinner: Treat yourself to this amazing dish of herbed chicken steak with potato wedges and coleslaw for dinner. Incredibly tasty, this dish is equally easy to make. It is also low in calorie content; hence, rest assured that this won t mess with your fitness regimen.
Exercises
Home: If you are too lazy to hit the gym or even practice yoga postures, then try doing simple fat burning exercises at home instead. Exercising doesn t necessarily call for huge spaces. If you have a space crunch at home, watch this video to find out how basic exercises can be done at home, even in small spaces.
Yoga: Tone your hips, buttocks and thighs with this auspicious yoga posture known as the Bhadrasana. This asana not only improves digestion, but is also known to calm the mind.
Gym: Many of us simply swear by the treadmill to lose weight. But to get the most out of it, following simple tips like increasing the speed gradually, choosing the right clothes and maintaining a straight back while running also matters.
Sleep well tip: Sleeping on the same time every day is one of the key factors to good health. Make sure you switch off your gadgets at least half an hour before sleep. You may also try oiling your hair to get a good night s sleep.
