Resolve to Refresh Your Active Lifestyle in 2008

(ARA) – New Year’s resolution time is here. Many of us
focus on the new diet or exercise regimen that we promise
ourselves we’ll stick to … until the first business trip or
unexpected family crisis throws our routine out the window.
This year, instead of trying to fulfill an unrealistic New
Years declaration, resolve to refresh your active lifestyle
on your terms, doing activities that are fun and fit into
your already busy schedule.

Lack of time is the biggest challenge to achieving fitness
goals, according to a recent poll by IDEA, the world’s
leading organization of health and fitness professionals.
The organization recently polled more than 1,500 of its
members to identify the top challenges that keep us from
sticking to our fitness resolutions, as well as what is on
the fitness horizon for 2008. More than 60 percent of those
polled cited a lack of time.

“Exercise is fun when you find a fitness routine that you
enjoy and fits into your lifestyle,” says Jake Steinfeld of
CEO Body by Jake and Founder of ExerciseTV. “Burning
calories, feeling great and looking great on your terms –
now that sounds like a plan!”

Consider one of the following to refresh your active
lifestyle in 2008; who knows, you just might have fun in
the process:

Downward Dog – Relieve stress and burn some calories
through yoga or Pilates. Classes are usually smaller than
group fitness classes and are a great option for people
looking to ease back into a wellness routine. According to
the survey, fitness experts predict these activities will
see the most growth in 2008. Calories burned in yoga or
Pilates exercises: 230-250 calories per hour.

Drop and Give Me 20! – Already a popular group activity,
fitness boot camps are expected to continue to grow in
popularity. These classes offer nontraditional, in-your-
face fitness instruction, hold participants accountable for
proper nutrition and deliver noticeable results in as
little as 30 days. If you enjoy being outdoors, this could
be just the activity for you. Calories burned: 300 per hour
or more.

Bring Sexy Back – Dance continues its resurgence as a way
to burn some calories in 2008. Fitness professionals
surveyed are talking about Zumba, a fusion of Latin and
international music combined with unique moves that is
based on the principle that a workout should be fun and
easy. If you’re looking to unleash the exotic “diva” in
you, consider signing up for a fitness pole dancing class.
These classes not only get you in shape, but also are known
to be great self-esteem boosters. Calories burned: 280-400
per hour, depending upon your “boogie level.”

Get Personal – While it’s definitely an obvious
recommendation (82 percent of the fitness professionals
surveyed recommended), engaging a personal trainer might be
worth another look. Personal training provides a one-on-
one, customized experience tailored to your individual
fitness abilities and goals in a manner that is convenient
for you. So, if you hate to use weights, a trainer can
develop a program using resistance bands to achieve the
same goals. Smaller, more personal facilities are springing
up around the U.S., and many personal trainers are willing
to come to you – whether at work over the lunch hour, to
your home on weekends or to the local neighborhood park.
Calories burned: varies with exercise.

More, More More – There are many ways to burn a few extra
calories staring us in the face everyday, all that’s needed
is to take advantage of the opportunities. Some of the most
popular activities to stay active away from the gym that
are recommended by fitness professionals to their clients
include:

Taking the stairs – Resolve to walk up three flights or
less instead of taking the elevator. Calories burned: 10
per flight.

Walking at lunch – Commit to a quick 20-minute power
walk three days a week. Calories burned: 80 calories per
walk.

Playing with your kids – A quick game of tag can elevate
the heart rate and just may sharpen your reflexes. Calories
burned: 115 per hour.

Gardening – Putting a bit more “elbow grease” into
pulling weeds and planting flowers may have extra benefits
in the long run. Calories burned: 230 per hour.

Make your beverage work for you. Another unexpected way
to burn a few extra calories is to enjoy Enviga, a
delicious and refreshing sparkling green tea that gently
invigorates your metabolism. A recent study revealed that
drinking three cans of Enviga over the course of a day can
increase calorie burning by 60-100 calories among healthy
18-35 year-old adults. Enviga is a simple, positive step
you can take toward a healthy balanced lifestyle. To learn
more, visit www.enviga.com.

So take some simple, positive steps toward a health
lifestyle, like eating right and pursuing fun exercise.
Remember, weight loss requires a reduced calories diet and
regular exercise. Make a New Year’s commitment to a fitter
you.

Health Tip

Spread Out The Calcium

Calcium supplements are more effective if they are taken
in small dosages several times during the day rather than
all at once. For instance, if you take four 250 mg. doses
rather than one 1,000 mg. dose, you will absorb twice as
much. The same principal applies to drinking milk. Having
three glasses throughout the course of the day is better
than three glasses drunk at one sitting.
