Whew! Its been 5 days since I started doing some workout exercise at the gym. The first few days was such a pain since my body is not used of doing some exercise. I could feel that my muscles are being stretched out and I felt pain in my abdomen, back, arms and legs. These are the areas of my body that needs a thorough workout. I am with my mommy friends who also wants to lose their weight. We follow a certain program on which of the gym equipment machines are we going to use and how to use it such as thread mill, indoor triathlon, twister, push up circuits and other strength training like abdominal workout, lower body exercise, upper body workout and many others.  Because of this gym workout routines that Ive been doing every weekdays, I have learned to love my body. I have come to realize that its easy to get fat but its really hard to lose weight. It needs a lot of patience, courage and determination if you really want to reach your goal. I was inspired by other mommies wh

Everyone needs to sleep. That is the very basic thing that we need to do in order to keep our mind and body healthy. Being well rested is an important part of staying healthy as it will help us live longer and have a better memory. A lack of sleep can make depression worse for many people as it raise their stress levels, while getting enough sleep eases anxiety and regulates emotional stability in people experiencing depression. Even in people who are not depressed, getting enough sleep can reduce stress levels and lower blood pressure. Sleep is indeed a great tonic for the emotions. They don't call it beauty sleep for nothing right? So while you sleep, your body repairs itself. Experts say you need eight hours of sleep to avoid puffy, dark under eye circles and a pale washed out complexion. In my case, I'm having a dry skin and a red, sleepy and tired eyes. Getting enough sleep is an important matter for everyone.If you are not sleeping well, consider a schedule or environme

We cannot live without eating that's why we must eat in order to survive. This means that if food is a problem in our life, then we must find a healthier way of viewing food. In order to have real success we must make a lifestyle change. It is a great way that we will be able to shed those unwanted pounds without experiencing the horrible guilt that so many dieters go through with their diets. Did you know that I am on a diet right now? I actually started last October and I'm glad that I've seen some improvements and positive changes out from my meal diet. I only eat 1 cup of rice once a day. Bread, biscuits, noodles or pasta serves as my rice alternative. I also avoid eating sweets and drinking soft drinks. I have a sweet tooth and I am such a chocoholic and a soft drinker but Ive set a goal for myself. I keep it realistic and I always look forward for my fitness and for dropping off some pounds. I changed my way of eating. I changed my way of seeing food and I am glad

Experts said that time and the quality of sleep could affect your weight. When we lack of sleep it will cause us in gaining weight. I think its true in my case since I usually sleep very late usually around 2 am and I wake up at 7 am. And within that dawn and early morning time, I always look for some food and drinks at the fridge and I just can't resist eating my favorite foods. Experts also said that to overcome lack of sleep , one should avoid the late afternoon caffeine, because it will make your stay in the stage of lighter sleep are associated with less sleep at night. Exercise also helps you to improve the quality of sleep. We should also consider what we eat before bed. We should eat some healthy snacks and eating snacks like a bowl of cereal before bed. Eating a heavy meal close to bedtime will increase the risk of heartburn, which will make you awake all night. I just hope that these weird sleeping routine and lack of sleep habit of mine will be change s

Most of us know the importance of having a balanced diet. But when it comes to physical exercise, many of us are guilty of being lazy in doing it. Well, I am actually one of those who are too lazy enough in doing some exercise. Did you know that using exercise as a balanced program of personal fitness is often the last thing people consider as they sign up for gym membership? I remember when my mom enrolled in a fitness class for her aerobics and fitness and she wanted me to enroll so I can do some exercise too but I'm still doubting if I could do it or if ever I enroll and if I can continue doing it. As we all know, Exercise is the key to weight control because it burns calories. If you burn off more calories than you take in, you lose weight. It's as simple as that and once you begin to exercise regularly, you will discover many more reasons why exercise is so important to improving the quality of your life. Exercise reduces stress, lifts moods, and helps yo

Nowadays, saunas are seen everywhere. They are regular features in hotels, private clubs and even at home. Saunas have many health benefits. Sauna bathing also helps maintain a healthy skin and a clear complexion. It helps in the growth and development of cells in our body and brings essential nutrients to the skin. It increases the rate of blood flow, which in turn enhances the production of collagen. Infrared sauna heaters have became increasingly popular in recent years because they provide a passive means in which we can lose excess body weight, shed those unsightly pounds as well as improve our circulation and do so with a bare minimum of exertion on our part.  Infrared saunas are for the most part safe, and they make many people feel good. Using an infrared sauna safely mostly is a matter of common sense and when it is used sensibly, infrared sauna therapy can be a great stress reliever. Sounds good, right?

I just watched some fitness pole dancing videos from Youtube awhile ago and I was truly fascinated how pole dancing moves as a form of dance which incorporates gymnastic moves, with freestyle movement and ballet in different dimensions which include a static and moving positions around the pole. Pole dancing is not just for exotic dancers but its is also for women with various backgrounds and lifestyles just like those stay at home moms like me who wants to try out pole dancing for fitness.The benefits are not only physical because it will help improve our grace and posture and it will make us feel more confident and will certainly help develop our self-esteem.

I admit that one of the reasons why I find it hard to lose weight because I am very lazy in doing some exercise. I'm also not comfortable in doing some exercise at the fitness gym plus the fact that its quite expensive to enroll on a gym class. I remember my mom enrolled at the fitness gym and with just a few sessions, it costs a lot of money and yet, she was not satisfied with the workout of that fitness gym offered to her.  If only we knew about online gym workout workout then my mom would not waste her money for a useless fitness workout. And for a stay at home mom like me who has a busy life in taking care of my family and do my obligations at home as well as my online blogging career, I consider trying  to do this exercise videos and do the work out at the comfort of my home. And I know that with the help of this workout videos, it would help me in gaining back my confidence again because it will help in getting back my body in shape.

I am a huge fan of the movie Ong-bak which is starred by Tony Jaa because I am amazed of his great fighting skills where most of his sequel from this movie are filled with incredible fight scenes and stunts. Ong-bak is an incredible movie with lots of Muay Thai and Taekwondo kicks where martial art fans would love to see it. And speaking of Muay Thai, it is actually a martial art and the national sport of Thailand. Muaythai training is not easy because it requires commitment, dedication and patience. There are several training institutes and muay thai training in thailand where you can learn Thai boxing. If you want to become an all around fighter, learn Muay Thai as you’ll learn kicking techniques like a taekwondo fighter does and a punches like boxers and gripping like a judo player.
