Fitness Myths by Paulin Nordin

Myth List

We are coming up on the busiest month for gyms.

Before getting too deeply involved take the time to read a list of sayings and thoughts that are dead wrong. 

MYTH 27: A PROTEIN BAR IS A GOOD SUBSTITUTION FOR A MEAL

TRUTH: Nope. Protein bars are highly processed, unless you make them yourself. Highly processed food requires fewer calories to digest, so that benefit is diminished. I love protein bars, but I eat them as treats to be eaten instead of, say, a Snickers bar.

Myth 29: Carbs are found only in bread and noodles

TRUTH: Wrong. You also find carbs in grains, starches, fruit, vegetables, dairy, nuts, and seeds.

Myth 46: The only way to lose weight is by cutting out all carbs

TRUTH: The only way to lose the right amount of weight is by adopting a diet than supports your goal, training with weights, and doing some cardio. Your program should include all of these aspects long enough to see a difference. Diet, weights, and cardio—the holy trinity of fitness!

Fitness Goals

Life is so much better when the vessel you are using is in good condition. Like any machine, automobile, plane, boat, etc., it has to be in use to perform well. 

No matter what type of workout plan you use, the only one that actually works is the one that you actually do. 

What you have to remember when you begin, start over or comeback to, don’t over think, over -do or overload your workout. 

To keep going, keep your workouts fun. Remember you are not competing for a prize , your prize should be a more healthy life. 

Grow , Encourage, Enjoy Life.

Get It Done

Get It Done 

“Don’t Quit”

 

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,

When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill,

When the funds are low but the debts are high,

And you want to smile but you have to sigh,

When care is pressing you down a bit,

Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.

Life is strange with its twists and turns,

As every one of us sometimes learns,

And many failures turn about

When we might have won had we stuck it out.

Don’t give up though the pace seems slow –

You may succeed with another blow.

 

Success is failure turned inside out –

The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,

You can never tell how close you are,

It may be near when it seems so far;

So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit –

It’s when things seem worst that you must not quit.
