A Healthy Spring Tune-Up

Spring is a great time to "clean house" by taking a few moments to review your health and fitness program. Ask yourself if your fitness program is still fun or has it gotten a little stale?

Are you getting a restful sleep and feeling more energetic or do you feel stressed and tired all of the time? Are you eating seven servings of fruits and vegetables per day or has too much junk or fast food crept into your eating plan?
 
Subtle changes in your fitness program can yield big results in your health and fitness. Instead of sticking with the traditional 30 minutes of weight training followed by 30 minutes of machine based cardio, save time and shorten your exercise time with a whole body circuit workout.

Your sleep time is when the body heals and repairs itself. A good sleep helps reduce the negative health effects of a stressful day. Getting a restful sleep requires feeling equally physically and mentally tired.

to digest and extract the important nutrients it needs.
