“THE ULTIMATE GOAL ISNT TO LOOK FIT - ITS TO BE FIT & STRONG!” Over the last couple of weeks I’ve thought about two statements - FIT vs FIT & STRONG plus PUMPING WEIGHTS vs NUTRITION.
🏃♀️🏋🏼♂️Yes, we want to be FIT so exercise such as walking, running, biking (cardio) is really important but as we age its INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT TO BE STRONG! As we lose muscle from age 30 we need to work to build muscle or to keep what we have!
🏋🏼♂️🍳It’s also really great to see (I see on Facebook or Instagram) people lifting weights & so much awesome effort, however that is only a small part of the PUZZLE! If you aren’t putting the same effort into your nutrition then you're taking 3 steps forward and 2 back!
🏋🏼♂️🍳🏃♀️It’s IMPORTANT that we work on the whole package not just the bits we think benefit us. KNOWLEDGE is power & to get the right advice is crucial to improvement to changing to a HEALTHIER STRONGER YOU!
Have you given thought to your
🏋🏼♂️STRENGTH
🍳NUTRITION (NOT DIET)
🧘🏻♀️FLEXIBILITY
🤸🏼♂️BALANCE
🏃♀️CARDIO
😴SLEEP
🤬STRESS LEVELS
👱🏻♀️HORMONES
These all form part of the PUZZLE!
🔹On Monday I shared a post by Dr Libby on 3 anti DIET rules for long-term weight loss which also follows along what I said above!
#1. Stop dieting and start nourishing
#2. Look at your stress levels
#3. Focus on your health, not your weight
🔹Check out her article by this link too. https://www.bodyandsoul.com.au/diet/lose-weight/dr-libbys-top-3-antidiet-rules-for-longterm-weight-loss/news-story/c5afbe6c85a390ed3f34476ac45ff08d
🙌🏻I wholeheartedly agree with this statement too (please give it some thought) "I can’t encourage you enough to make that subtle, but significant, shift from weight to health. It is truly liberating.”
📞If you want some assistance with this shift, then please get in touch. It’s not all about pumping weights! Although good on you for putting fitness on the it’s important list as it is!
🌸Have a great weekend - only one more week until SPRING - YAY!
AND STRONG!!!!
