Physical
wellness is living responsibly and taking care of your body.
Physical Wellness is the overall fitness of a person, such
us engaging in healthy activities that benefit your body
such as nutritious eating and exercise. Physical Wellness
encourages principles of good health and knowledge, which

wellness involves taking responsibility and care for minor
illnesses and also knowing when professional medical attention
is necessary. Physical wellness entails an understanding
of the relationship between sound nutrition and body functioning.

Your
Goal for This Week
|
Included
in physical wellness is an awareness of how to build and
repair muscles mass. Here are 3 important facts:
-
Muscle
is a tissue, but it's also metabolically active - Basically,
the more muscle you build, the more calories you'll burn,
the more fat you'll lose and the more likely it will stay
off for the long term.
- Muscle
isn't just a calorie-burner either; it's also a metabolism
booster, meaning you can keep weight off. For example, when
you diet without exercising, you lose both fat and muscle,
making your body less capable of keeping that weight off.
However, when you build muscle and diet, you're creating
a metabolic foundation for keeping your body burning calories
even when you're resting.
- Muscle
also helps promote our overall bone health. Our bones are
constantly changing - growing, depleting and restructuring
with our bodies. As women age, we lose bone mass, but this
depletion can be curtailed and prevented with a regular
endurance training for muscle development.
- Muscle
mass is one of your greatest tools in the fight against
aging. Nothing will make your skin smoother, or your body
firmer and tighter than solid muscle.
No cream or surgery can accomplish what a few minutes of
daily Core Endurance training can do for your physical wellness
when it comes to halting the aging process. The fact is
that keeping your muscles tone matter for maintaining physical
wellness.
