Get Healthy Program
Goal: Get Healthy! Exercise Program
- Get in as much "little" exercise as you can. Take the stairs, park farther from the store, do some house work or yard work etc.
- Perform at least 20-30 minutes of moderate cardiovascular exercise 2-3 times per week (running, spinning, stair-climbing, etc.). Catch some fresh outdoor air when you can!
- Conduct resistance training exercises utilizing free weights, cable machines, dumbbells, and/or home gyms. You should train 2-3 times per week for no more than 45 minutes each time. Warm up with 5 minutes on the bike or treadmill to loosen up your muscles. Seek a local personal trainer if you are unfamiliar with weight training.
- Make sure to vary type, time and intensity of all your exercises frequently.
Nutrition Program
- We recommend that you consume 4-6 well-balanced meals per day. Each meal should be roughly equal in calories, protein, carbohydrate, and fat intake. Balance your meals with approximately 30% calories from protein, 30% from fat and 40% from carbohydrates.
- Good sources of protein include: eggs, egg whites, fish, skinless chicken & turkey, low-fat cottage cheese, lean beef & quality protein powders. Good sources of carbohydrate include: vegetables, fruits, beans, whole grains (brown rice, oatmeal etc.). Good sources of fat include: nuts, seeds, olive oil, fatty fish (salmon, tuna), low fat cheese, low fat mayo, peanut butter, flax seeds.
- Drink one-half to one full gallon of water each day.
- Make the majority of your food "whole foods". Whole foods contain fewer additives and artificial ingredients and more vitamins and minerals.
- Moderation and balance are the keys to good health!
Mental Program
- Get the book "Self Analysis" by L.Ron Hubbard, you should be able to get it at your local library or book store. Use the techniques exactly as the book says, for about 15 to 30 minutes every day and you will be surprised at how much of a difference it will make in your life.
- Set up small goals for yourself and try hard to stick to them.
- Relieve daily stress by doing things that you enjoy and are relaxing for your body.
- Surround yourself with positive people and keep open lines of communication.
