The main goal for everyone starting an exercise program should be to become as healthy as possible, not just look ripped, or starve yourself for results. Being healthy isn't a hobby its a lifestyle! A combination of eating well, exercising often, getting plenty of sleep, and trying to maintain balance in all aspects of your life. Eating healthy is essential to changing your bodies composition. Its impossible to out work a bad diet. You can do all the burpees, battle ropes, and tire flips you want. You will never see real results unless your eating the right foods, or more importantly staying away from the wrong ones. A healthy diet should consist of natural whole foods. Eating organic as much as possible. Fruits, vegetables, nuts, fish, chicken, eggs, lean cuts of beef. Trying to avoid chemical enhanced or genetically modified foods. Unfortunately the food supply in America is so flooded with these food like products, its important to understand the damage they are doing on your body.


 Nutrition isn't the only factor in a healthy lifestyle. Sleep is very important to give your mind and body time to recharge from the day. Your muscles need time to recover from a tough workout in order to grow stronger. Its also important to stretch and strengthen the body to avoid pattern overload and prevent injury. Training the whole body through compound movements, is a great way to avoid over working certain body parts and neglecting others. Stress is another major factor in your health. You cannot control your stress levels, however if you exercise, eat well, and get plenty of sleep, you will definitely be less stressed. Meditation is a very powerful stress reliever also! Remember exercise doesn't have to always be jogging or lifting weights. Swim, ride bikes, do yoga, try boxing, try different things to keep you active. It will help you not get bored as well as train your body in different positions. This is key for growth physically and emotionally. The human body was designed to eat foods that the earth provides, not chemicals cooked up in a lab to cut back food cost. If you treat your body right it will treat you right back! Have a healthy and happy week!
