| Move more, eat less. It really is that simple. If you want to lose weight you need to include both exercise and proper nutrition in your life (I don't like the word "diet"). Running, weights, PT, biking, swimming, etc. Brisk walking is great. Just do something! My best advice regarding exercise is to make it a habit by including it in your daily routine. At first you'll feel worse when you do exercise than when you don't, but if you persist you'll soon feel worse when you don't. That's when you've succeeded. The body's a machine, and with proper fuel and maintenance you have the best chance for a long and productive life. When I'm eating that salad every day during lunch I just tell myself it's "brain food," and I notice the difference in the afternoon. I also believe being a balanced and well-rounded person gives you the best chance of being a successful entrepreneur. You can only sprint for so long--think instead of "what I'm going to do for the next 40, 50, or 60 years." |
Right now I'm still getting "newbie gains", but I can't even begin to describe how great it feels to know that every day I'm stronger and healthier than I've ever been in my life. I'm also happier and handle stress better than ever. Really, exercise is that miracle drug everyone seems to be searching for.
