HOW TO EMBRACE YOUR CURVES.

Image
At one point in life or the other, we have all been self-conscious about how we look and how others perceive us. Hollywood has created this ridiculous stereotype that for you to be viewed as sexy, you have to fit a particular body type. I have started several workout programs after watching BeyoncĂ©’ singing or watching a movie where the actress looked for ridiculously hot. Those programs did not last long because I was trying to look like someone else. Everybody is unique, just because you have curves does not mean you are unhealthy. I have been with people who I admire because they workout, they eat a healthy balanced diet but they also do not deny themselves that treat one’s in a while. They have curves, and they are proud of them because they are living a full, well-balanced life. Getting to the point where you accept yourself for who you are and live your best life is hard, but we are here to help with that. We came up with several tips to help you embrace your curves. ...

Motivation To Workout

Image
I have heard many people ask these three questions. What motivates you to workout daily? I have tried everything but I am still gaining weight. What makes you get up that early in the morning? Well the second one is more of a statement but I have heard it alot. Lossing weight is not an exact science and what worked for another person will probably not work for you. It is simple but it is not easy and it requires alot of hard work and grit. So today I am going to share with you what actually works for me. Mine is mostly mindset, I had a vision of how i want to look like in two years. Took that picture printed a big ass photo hanging on my wall somewhere I can see all the time. Of course my vision was that of Kim Kardashian because she is awesome. The second thing I did was research because you cannot go to your vision without a path. That was how I learnt that what I eat is as important as how much exercise I do. At first I would excercise alot and eat as much because I thought ...

Higher Chances of Living Longer By doing Cardio Daily

Image
EVERY Minute of Exercise Could Lengthen Your Life By seven Minutes...... I was never never on to exercise, waking up to run or skip around like a crazy person held very little appeal to me. If you woke me up before seven in the morning I would just hit you with the pillow, stuff it over my head and go back to sweat slumber. Getting up in the morning was difficult and a drag, i could not master any energy or enthusiasm to do anything at all. The change came to me one day when I was walking up the stairs one day when I felt so tired I had to seat down for a minute. My chest was burning like i was having a heart attack and I was heaving like an old bull. As I sat there the fact that I was only twenty four and I felt like I was fifty hit me. I realized if I went on with the same path I would probably die of heart attack at 35. Like most things you do not just dive in head first you might end up crushing at the bottom so I started slow. Going for a walk in the evenings, going up ...
