Exercise + Nutrition + Supplementation = Better Health


What is better health exactly? It's three things... It's exercise. It's eating good nutritionally, and it's adding supplementation to help get what you cannot otherwise.

It's simple really.

Let me explain more about each and why each one is so important in obtaining a better healthy lifestyle.

Exercise...We all know how exercise can improve the way we look and feel. That is true, if done the correct way. Honestly most people try to over-do it then end up quitting after a week or two. Get in 90 minutes per week of cardiovascular exercise and combine some simple body weight resistance exercises into that cardio routine, that is a great program! Flat out!It's not rocket science!

Nutrition...This is probably the simplest part that everyone freaks out about. Just make sure you try to keep your metabolism moving and grooving as fast as possible by making adjustments each day, such as...eating breakfast, combining a complex carbohydrate and a protein each time you eat, eat something every 3-4 hours with smaller portions, drink lots of water, and try to stay away from bad foods. You know if a food is bad or not. Just stop eating them on a regular basis.

Finally Supplementation...Up until about a year and a half ago I always said if you eat properly you don't need to take supplements. Well, I was terribly wrong! I completely admit it. I was an idiot when it came to that. Here's why...No one eats healthy enough to not need help from supplements. No one! Not even me. Don't get me wrong, I don't want you to go out and start taking any old supplement out there, because there are many not so healthy supplements being sold to you, while only a few are pretty darn healthy, so you do have to make sure that what you are putting in your mouth is not hindering your body in any way.

Supplementation gives the body the vitamins and minerals that the body doesn't normally process itself or gets from the regular foods that we normally eat, but needs to feel good, to have more energy, to have less aches and pains, to lose weight, and so on...

So if you want to have a healthier body, simply add the three essentials to look better, and feel better both inside and out...

Exercise + Nutrition + Supplementation = Better Health!
