The Secret Tool For A Beautiful Body

October 23, 2019 By Karen Ficarelli

Athletes everywhere know the secret to keeping track of their diet and fitness level is by keeping a journal. Eating right and exercising are main components to staying in shape, but if you really want to see your performance soar, then start keeping track of your efforts by beginning a fitness journal. It’s easy, inexpensive, and can be lots of fun.

From everything you eat and drink to all of the physical activities that you engage in, a fitness journal will bring you closer to your goals. It’s a really low-cost method that almost always guarantees success. The only reason a woman doesn’t succeed when keeping a fitness journal is because she gives up before reaching her goal.

Fitness journals are successful because they keep you accountable and encourage honesty about the foods you eat and how much exercise you are really doing. All too often, we make estimates of our daily intake and even about the difficulty level of our workouts. The success of your journal demands honesty from you in order to give you the results you desire.

Keeping a fitness journal makes it easy to remember the exercises you have been doing and how far you have progressed from one workout session to the next. Writing down the exercise and visualizing the execution are all part of the mind, body and spirit connection. The journal will help you to remember every exercise and make it easy to keep track of how many repetitions work best for you.

Starting a new workout usually involves learning new exercises and developing new skills. Keeping a fitness journal allows you to take a few minutes to process what you have learned, repeat the concepts to yourself, and train your brain to put it into action. From one workout to the next, it can be difficult to remember which kettlebell you used or how much weight you lifted on your previous workout. You can also keep track of how much time you spend at different fitness levels, from a slow pace to a fast pace to a full aerobic workout.

Every successful diet and fitness program depends on accountability. Get a jump-start on your weight loss goals and start living a healthier, happier life. Journaling is the secret tool for all those women who desire a beautiful body, so begin your journaling journey today.

Fad Diets Or Bad Diets – The Secret To Never Dieting Again

June 26, 2014 By Karen Ficarelli

Fad diets come and go, but the truth is you shouldn’t have to go on a diet at all. Your diet should be the way you eat all of the time. Most doctors agree that going on a severely restrictive diet will help you lose weight temporarily but won’t help you over time. As a matter of fact, diets that are too strict may have you neglecting certain nutrients that your body needs and may do you more harm than good.

Bad diets are designed to fail. You may lose weight in the beginning, but as soon as you begin to eat normally, the weight returns. Unfortunately, the more often this yo yo type dieting occurs, the harder it is to lose weight time and again. But it doesn’t have to be this way. You can learn the secret to never having to diet again.

Instead of dieting, you will learn to make changes to the way that you eat. These changes won’t be temporary. The changes you choose to make will be ones that you can live with. Changes that won’t leave you feeling deprived or depressed. Slowly, but surely, you will willingly turn away from foods that don’t meet your criteria for the body that you desire.

Eat five meals a day, instead of the traditional three meals a day and never feel hungry. Eating smaller portions more often is a good way to cut down on calories while staving off hunger. You can control the urge to overeat at each meal knowing that your next meal is only a few hours away.

I have been eating this way for years and have been able to control my weight, improve my health and balance my hormones. It is the foundation for the Fitness4Her Diet and has been successful in helping others manage their weight too.

Many people like fad diets because they cause you to lose weight fast. The problem is that for a diet to make you lose weight fast, it probably restricts calorie intake way below normal. If that is what you are interested in, you can do that by yourself by starving yourself. This is not what smart women interested in a healthy lifestyle should even be considering. No matter how frustrated you get about losing those stubborn pounds, choose a wise a healthy path and stay away from fad diets.
