June Gloom and the Beauty Boom

Although the weather has been rather gloomy, summer is still around the corner. No fad diets! They are very short term, restrictive, and can even lead to weight gain. Always remember to commit, compromise, and care for your health as a whole. As we are all trying to get in shape for summer time, here are a couple beauty boom tips to keep your health a priority.

Be Nice To Yourself

Health is a life long journey. If you aren't in the shape you want to be in, stay positive and be proud of the little victories. Studies have shown the more positive outlook on health and fitness you have, the healthier you will become.

Eat Well

Eating right is a key component to a healthy lifestyle. You can exercise all you want, but if you don't practice the right nutrition, you will not see optimal results. A simple healthy meal would contain a protein, a carbohydrate, and a fat. For example, chicken breast with a sweet potato and butter and 1/4-1/2 and avocado.

Accept Your Flaws

Everyone has those trouble spots or things about themselves they wish they could change. Embrace your flaws. Have patience and be kind to your body. Instead of pointing out what you don't like about yourself, praise the things you do. Turn negative thoughts positive.

Use Local Resources

Living in southern California I am blessed to have the ocean in my backyard. Get fit and get outside. Use local surroundings to change up your workout scenery. Changing up location will keep you motivated to workout and not plateau from the same workouts. I enjoy morning runs along the coast.

Train Mean, Stay Lean

Eating right and training right go hand in hand. Training hard keeps your metabolism high, keeps energy positive, and keeps burning calories the entire day. I don't think anyone regrets working out, but they might regret missing one.

You Can, You Will

Always believe in yourself. Set attainable goals and celebrate your little victories, they are just as important as the ones you make over years of commitment. Anything is possible if you just believe.

Good luck on your fitness journey, I believe in you and you should believe in yourself. Getting fit and healthy can also help decrease life insurance rates. Never hesitate to call or email at anytime.We are always open to comments, questions, and feedback.

Be well.
