As the New Year fast approaches, the “new you” and hyped-fitness sponsored ads are on the increase. Don’t be duped by purported “quick fixes” and lists of “dos” and “don’ts”. Improved health and fitness requires small, simple, changes to one’s lifestyle. No special products or secret foods. No special exercises or workouts. Just basic nutrition and exercise. Shape, Men’s Health, Muscle & Fitness, etc. have no special “secrets”. You don’t need to spend hours in the gym. You just need to stick to the basics–basic (complex) movements and basic (healthy) food choices. Spend as much time as you can being active, without sacrificing time (unnecessarily) with family.
Be your best today; be better tomorrow. (May that be the only resolution you have to make for 2017, and, if you don’t hit your mark every day, so be it.)
Though a bit premature, Happy New Year!
