The Wellness Mentality
By applying some basic knowledge and some simple daily actions, you can create an environment in which optimal health is the result of your body's natural adaptation process. Before I outline the steps to take, keep in mind that the first three weeks will be the toughest.
Liken it to an airplane taking off. In the beginning, there is a lot of friction to overcome. The plane is big, heavy and it will take a lot of energy to get it aloft. There are a lot of old habits in the way. The plane has to go full throttle. You have to put energy into learning new ideas, energy into making certain choices (simple ones) throughout the day.
As the plane starts to climb it is still going full throttle, but it hasn't reached cruising altitude yet. You are working out four days a week and you are aware and making conscious efforts outside the gym since you now understand your body is dynamic and constantly adjusting and healing itself, adapting within its existing environment. It is now in the momentum phase, burning fat in order to strengthen and build muscle.
Now, once the plane reaches cruising altitude, the goal has been reached. The plane can now continue while letting off on the throttle by 50 to 60% and it won't slow down one bit! Your body now has less fat and more muscle to move it around and since muscle requires energy to exist, it will use its own body fat stores as the energy source to maintain muscle tissue provided you are giving your muscles building blocks it needs throughout the day. These include protein, water, vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients (nutrients proven to promote strong cellular regeneration) and keeping sugars and simple carbs (high calorie energy sources) to a minimum at each meal. You can now maintain your lean, healthy physique with just two workouts a week.
Again, you are forcing your body to adapt. You are asking your cells to reorganize themselves in such a way as to create health efficiently and fairly quickly. When you are diligent, even though it might have taken you years to get out of shape, it will only take months to get you back in shape.
Get started TODAY. Stop wasting time and feed your mind to see this through with all the information (books, ebooks, audiobooks, magazines, etc.) you can find on nutrition. Next week, I'll write about enzymes and how they are the beginning point of your health!
