Week
Eleven - Eat Wholesome Food
|
|
How
many times a week do you eat French fries or grab a burger
at lunch? What about cookies, chocolate, packaged meals,
sodas, coffee and chips? Junk food may make your life convenient
however, it depletes your energy levels and gradually destroys
your internal organs. Your fitness success during The
Core Challenge is mainly the result of hydrating and
eating wholesome food. This will ensure you maintain optimal
energy levels to perform your daily activities efficiently,
including your workouts. You must take serious steps to
eliminate junk food from your diet. No matter how much exercise
you do, you can never fully compensate for poor eating habits.
Wholesome
food is produced without synthetic fertilizers or harmful
sprays. This nutrient rich food is derived from soil rich
in macrobiotic life that enhances the uptake of minerals
and vitamins by plants. Everyone benefits from eating wholesome
food. And once you learn to "eat to live" instead
of "live to eat", you will have more appreciation
for wholesome food.

Your
Goal for This Week
|
By
eating wholesome food, you are able to obtain the right amounts
of vitamins, minerals, protein, carbohydrates, water and fat
that your bodies need. This also helps you to get the calories
needed for physical activity, but not excessive calories beyond
your bodies' needs. For example, fruits and grains provide
the energy your body needs to exercise and sustain a healthy
lifestyle.
After
a period of time, which is different for everyone, once you
let go of the junk food and begin to eat more wholesome food,
an interesting and natural thing occurs - you tend to become
more attracted to healthier foods! It therefore becomes easier
to let go of the low or no-nutrient food and easier and more
natural to eat the nutrient rich ones.
Calorie
Blast is a cardiovascular training, or aerobic training,
designed to increase muscular endurance by improving the
performance of the heart and lungs to distribute oxygen
to the muscles. Body Blast gets your heart pumping at an
elevated speed. The aerobic training in this program uses
fat stores from various parts of the body, including the
abdomen for a quick slim down. Eating wholesome food is
not only important, but essential for maintaining fitness,
and must be included as part of your daily exercise program
regularly.
Eating
wholesome food during your training with Calorie

by burning calories. Some of the benefits from Calorie
