satellitelife Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Your body is the most important tool you’ll ever own. Keeping it healthy and achieving optimum health is one of the most rewarding experiences you can have. Over the past few years public awareness about good diets and fitness has increased and each day more people are seeking to get in shape and live healthier. The media is inundated with weight loss products and techniques that promise the impossible. The simple truth is that in order to lose weight and get fit fast you need to eat less and exercise. You will also need to have a better diet and follow certain exercise routines, but at the core, it is really that simple to get fit. The reason why so few people are aware of this is because they are trying to cut corners when trying to get fit. Staying motivated and turning the exercises into a routine is much more important than what exercise plan you do. That being said, you will still need to pick an exercise routine that is appropriate for you. Read on to find out how a Life Coach can help you make this choice easier and more concisely. Exercise! Exercise! Exercise! There are thousands of exercise routines available for anyone wanting to get fit. Choosing one of them is much less important than sticking to it. In order to see visible results you have to follow these programs for weeks or months at a time. For example, every night before I go to bed, I carry out a fitness routine. This involves doing sit ups; abdominal crunches, posture training and a ‘total body move’ technique. It takes 21 days to form a habit and staying motivated is crucial. With the help of a Life Coach, you can tremendously increase your chances of success. Having the support of a Life Coach will help you to keep on track with your progress, receive moral support and show you the light at the end of the tunnel. Daily progress might not be apparent to you, but to your coach it will be a lot more obvious. Your coach will give you feedback on your progress and this can greatly boost your confidence and help you stay on track. The exercise routine doesn’t have to be extreme in order to see results. In fact, having an overly-taxing exercise routine can have negative effects on your body and can even lead to injuries. Make sure you never push yourself too hard. A Life Coach can help you to set exercise routines that are in line with your daily routine, yet stretch you that little bit more. Small Steps One of the biggest problems when trying to get fit is when people try to do everything at once. They want to make everything perfect and set their expectations to a level they just cannot reach. A few days or weeks later, they may quit the program altogether because the goal was way too much to accomplish. This vicious circle is created when expectations are set too high. A Life Coach can help you set daily and weekly goals that are attainable and within your reach. Even those that want to get fit fast don’t have to spend hours a day in the gym. Taking small steps insures that you get used to the routine. This will also increase the likelihood that you will stick to it. In an extreme example you could say that doing 10 minutes on the treadmill is ten more minutes than you used to do. A Life Coach can help you to optimize your exercise routine by setting you the challenge of increasing your workout in manageable increments. In little or no time, you will find that the challenge and minutes become an effortless part of your routine. As stated by J.R.R. Tolkien, “little by little one travels far.” When you take up the support of a Life Coach, in no time, your small steps will result in a massive stride forward in your exercise routine. Keep Track of your Progress Making the decision to get fit and starting off an exercise program is the easiest part in getting fit. In order to stay motivated and maintain that drive you need to keep track of your progress. You can choose to keep track by taking measurements or pictures of yourself, noting down how hard you’ve exercised, as well as in other ways. A Life Coach can help you plan and organize the way you keep track of your progress. They can help you to generate ideas for measuring your progress, provide feedback and offer suggestions on the options that may be suitable for you. Think of a Life Coach like having a personal trainer to keep you on track and organized on your way to get fit, through observation, dialogue and feedback. Your coach from www.satellitelifecoaching.com goes one step further. If you are local, she will accompany you on a fitness regime – and so will be there with you every step of the way. For example, you may choose to go for walks with your coach and exercise as you are coached on keeping fit or indeed on other matters. The important thing is that I will be there with you every step of the way. Eating Right Eating right is less about what you should add to your diet and more about what you should remove from it. In the same manner as with exercising, you will need to take small steps towards a better, healthier diet, by removing sugars, saturated fat and other unhealthy foods from it. A Life Coach can help you to choose a good diet and stick to it. It is important to realize that a healthy diet should be considered as a lifestyle change and not a punishment. Healthy food will not only make you lose weight faster but it will completely change the way you feel and look. It will give you the energy required to keep going strong in the gym and look beautiful outside of it. Eating right can also help you discover new foods and flavors you wouldn’t normally have tried. Where to Start Once you’ve decided to get fit and live a healthier life you can start planning out a strategy. This will help you set-up your goals and choose a diet and exercise routine that is appropriate for them. One-on-one personalized coaching with Satellite Life Coaching can help you to get fit fast!
