6 Exercise Mistakes Avoid these common mistakes and burn fat twice as fast!
Mistake #1: Doing isolated exercises Doing isolated exercises like bicep curls and tricep kick-backs will not get you any significant results. These one-muscle-at-a-time moves simply don't stimulate enough muscle fibers to build lean muscle or expend enough energy to maximize your calorie burn. If you want to build lean muscle while burning fat so you can get serious definition, you need to perform exercises that stimulate as many muscles and expend as much energy as possible at the same time . My Comment: I agree. Mistake #2: Working out with machines Fancy machines may make the gym look high-end, but truthfully, about the only thing they're good for is for sitting down while you tie your shoes or catch your breath! The problem is this: Machines alter the way your body naturally moves and restrict your range of motion. This severely limits your ability to fully activate all of your muscles fibers -- that means less fat burning and less muscle definitio...
Low carb bread calories
Low-Carb Bread Calories Overview Low-carb bread, specially formulated to cut down on carbohydrates , serves as an alternative to regular bread for sandwiches and other meals. The calories in low-carb bread may contribute to your daily nutritional goals. Calories A 0.8-oz. slice of low-carb bread contains approximately 45 to 60 calories, according to the CalorieKing and MyFitnessPal websites. This number of calories represents 2.2 to 3 percent of the amount you should eat every day if you are following a 2,000-calorie diet . This number may vary depending on ingredients. Macronutrients Despite being classified as low-carb, the majority of calories in low-carb bread come from carbohydrates. One slice of this bread provides 7 to 9 g of this macronutrient, or 5 to 7 percent of the 130 g recommended for daily consumption by the Institute of Medicine. This is lower than a regular slice of bread; CalorieKing reveals a similarly-sized slice of white bread c...

Green Tea before gym plus nothing for breakfast : Don't do it Phedon!!!
Some days ago I went to the gym without eating in the morning - it was too early to eat anything - and I got one pill of green tea. I was so dizzy during the workout that I managed to do only 1 hour while my head was like music box out of dizziness. Of course I guess that my sugar levels were below 40, because my normal levels are around 50 ( very low). The day before yesterday I had a good breakfast , no green tea, and went to the gym again, no dizziness, no problem, not only completed my aerobic program but also did some resistance training very successfully. So, green tea in the morning without eating ? Don't do it .... Phedon!!!

There are several misconceptions when it comes to feeding cats, what they like, and what they should eat. Here are some of the most basic facts about cats' eating behavior. · Cats don't eat fruits and vegetables. There are many individuals who believe that cats eat the same things as human beings.

Mimick the monkeys and you wont need the tall's help
Today I went to the super market close to my house. I wanted to reach my favourite fatless and sugarless yogurt with tropical fruit ( pineapple, mango, kiwi) and I could not because the product was in the highest shelf of the sp fridge. The previous time I went to buy the same yogurt it was again out of reach and I finally didnt buy it because I could not find someone to reach it for me. This time I was determined to buy it. I was wearing ballet like shoes, and I got on the 1st shelf and thus reached my yogurt. No talls needed this time. Just mimicking the monkeys...
The treamill that makes you dizzy
Today I went to my morning - gym ( I have another night gym too). I got on the treadmill and again I was dizzy. This time I managed to stay there for 45 minutes ( while on other treadmills I can walk for hours). The previous 2 times I kept myself from fainting on the treadmill for up to 30 minutes. Why all this dizziness and fainting symptomatology? On the screen of the treadmill, every 1 minute there is a message which says "If you are dizzy, have a heartache or feel you are going to faint pull the stop button". This message is almost all the time on the screen and if you want to see your speed and your km you should wait for about 1 minute for this bullshit to finish. Of course I will faint if you are telling me all the time that I will faint!!!What a quincidence on the TV screen in front of me a woman ( in a comedy) just fainted. I managed to finish my workout with 4km only ( for me 7km is nothing). I was dizzy for about 30 minutes later while I was on the bike. Becaus...

Do you know how neuroplasticity impacts your brain health?
A recently published report funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) reviews the extensive literature on cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s disease in search of factors that might delay or prevent these age-related conditions. Of all the factors reviewed, including diet and dietary supplements, physical exercise, social engagement, and other leisure activities, only cognitive training was found to have a high level of evidence for being associated with a decreased risk of cognitive decline. So, if you want to engage in activities that are known to be associated with a reduced risk of cognitive decline, this report says that cognitive training is the only thing that currently fits the bill. The nearly 800-page manuscript was prepared by the Duke Evidence-based Practice Center for the Agency of Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), a part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. This exhaustive report was created to support the NIH State-of-the-Science Conference ...
