Staying Fit & The Cottage this Summer With summer often comes the challenge of keeping up our routines. Vacations and long weekend trips mean getting away from things like regular gym visits, fitness classes and running schedules, or maybe (like me) you couldnt manage to get the bikes attached to the back of the minivan. Ive put together a list of fun activities you can do while away that will ensure you dont come home a dress size bigger. Theyre designed to feel as littl...Continue reading

For most of us, summer means being outside, surrounding ourselves with friends, and indulging in our favorite food and drink. Its tons of fun, but how can you stay healthy this summer? Six Tips to Help You Stay Healthy This Summer If any of your summer plans revolve around these activities, here are 6 ways you can ensure you stay healthy.... Dont forget the sunscreen. Putting on sunscreen is key not only to avoiding sunburn, and maintaining a younger looking appearance, but keeping your skin healthy. Its been proven to prevent skin cancer, and reduce your chances of contracting it. Plus, if your sunburn gets bad enough you may get sun poisoning, which requires hospitalization. So, break out the SPF no matter where you go this summer! Put healthy food on the grill. Everyone loves a good barbecue, right? Thats why you can spice it up this summer with healthier food on the grill during your family barbecue. Try grilling salmon, chicken, and vegetables instead of beef and pork at your next BBQ. Youll feel better, and it will still be delicious! Get your H2O. We cant stress enough how important it is to drink more water during the summer. Not only does water have tons of health benefits, but dehydration is extremely harmful to your house, and causes many complications. If youre outside, were drinking alcohol, you need to drink more water than you normally would because heat and alcohol both further dehydrate you. If youre not sure how much water you need to drink per day, you can ask your medical weight loss team at your next appointment. Dont stuff the suitcase. It seems odd, but packing light has health benefits. Heavy luggage causes many summer injuries. Packing light helps prevent those common arms, shoulder, back and necks strains not to mention keeping your stress low. Its the most important meal of the day! Your parents werent kidding. The energy you get from consistent breakfast helps you maintain a healthy weight, and avoid resorting to high-calorie foods. In the summer, its especially important to have good nutrition so that youre less prone to heat-related illness and dehydration. Drink responsibly: Although a cold beer feels refreshing and thirst-quenching in the summer heat, it actually dehydrates you further (and doesnt replenish your bodys water stores). So if your pool party has a big beer cooler ready, make sure theres a water cooler, too! Whats your favorite healthy summer habit? Share your tips in the comments!

TO TRANSLATE YOUR NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS INTO PRACTICAL, EVERYDAY HABITS, you need to pace yourself. As countless New Year's resolutioners have discovered the hard way, going balls-to-the-wall on January 1 typically means burning out before February. So: Rather than hitting the gym too hard and subsequently destroying your body, here's a workout program that'll help you stick to your resolution of getting positively jacked in 2018. This one-week kickstarter plan, designed by ...Mike Krajewski, C.S.C.S., owner of MK Fitness in Nashville, TN, is designed to fire up every one of your body's energy-burning systems to get you started on the right foot without going overboard. If you haven't worked out consistently over the holidays, this total-body program will ease you into a heavier-duty regimen and set you up for success in the new yearand beyond. How to do it Complete this workout program for two weeks straight. You'll rest after Day II and Day III. (If you start with Day I on a Monday, that means you'll be resting on Wednesdays and Fridays.) One quick detail: On Sunday, when you lunge, you'll complete front to reverse lunges with light dumbbells. You'll step your right leg forward into a front lunge while performing a lateral shoulder raise with your left arm. Then you'll step back with your right leg into a reverse lunge as you curl the dumbbells. That's one rep. Do this pattern for 8-10 reps on the right leg, followed by 8-10 reps with the left leg. Once the two weeks are up, start on a focused muscle-building regimen, like some of our favorites: https://www.mensfitness.com//1-week-workout-plan-kick-star

Working out does improve your metabolism, but there is no advantage to exercising before bed. In fact, hitting the gym too late can interfere with sleep, which itself is an important component of weight loss. Rather than worrying about the time of your workout, focus on maintaining a regular exercise routine. Work out when you feel the most energized and are least likely to experience negative side effects from exercise. Working Out at Night If you function at your peak befor...e bed and exercise doesn't disrupt your sleep patterns, then night is as good a time as any to work out. However, there is no added metabolism boost, and heavy physical activity may prevent you from falling asleep if you do it within three hours of bedtime. According to Phyllis Zee, M.D., a circadian biology professor at Northwestern University, the ideal time for exercise is between 2 to 6 p.m. That's when you have the greatest lung function and tolerance for physical discomfort. Cardio and Metabolism Performing aerobic activities like running, biking, skiing and swimming elevate your metabolism while you are performing them and for hours after you've finished. While time of day does not affect this boost, the intensity of your cardio workout does. For maximum benefit, add interval training to your routine. Push yourself hard for a short time, go back to a more leisurely pace, and then repeat to torch away calories faster. For example, you might run or jog for two minutes and then walk for two minutes, repeating the cycle for 40 minutes. Strength Training and Metabolism Strength training builds up your muscles; the more muscle tissue you have, the more calories you burn throughout the day. This is because it takes six calories a day just to maintain muscles at rest. In comparison, it only takes two calories a day to maintain fat. Lifting weights, doing squats and performing crunches are all considered strength training exercises. Keep in mind that the metabolism boost will not be instant, as it takes time to build up enough muscle to make a real difference. Exercise and Insomnia Overall, exercise will help your sleep, allowing you to drift off more quickly and rest throughout the night. However, working out before bed can lead to insomnia. This is because exercise triggers your body to produce a hormone called cortisol, which keeps you alert. This alertness is beneficial in the daytime, but can prevent you from dozing off when you need to. To avoid sleeplessness, the Division of Sleep Medicine at Harvard Medical School recommends working out at least two to three hours before you turn in for the night.
