Alternatively, warm up by walking slowly for five minutes and quickly for ten minutes. You can then sprint for three blocks, walk back two blocks, sprint for three blocks, walk back two blocks (and so on, lasting 15 minutes). When that time has passed, walk back quickly to your origin point to cool down.
You can easily add weight to this move by doing bicep curls with dumbbells.
To work out your lower and upper body at the same time, try adding an overhead press to your squat. Hold dumbbells in each hand at hip or shoulder level. Squat down, and as you rise up out of the squat, press the dumbbells overhead.
You will want to be sure to get lots of lean protein, as this is necessary for building muscle. Good sources of protein include seafood, lean meats, eggs, milk, beans, soy and nuts. Carbohydrates from whole grains, vegetables, fruit, and dairy will provide you with energy. Avoid foods with a high amount of trans fats. This typically includes processed foods, microwavable meals, pastries, and fried foods.
Milk is actually a great and inexpensive source of both calcium and protein. It is recommended that adults drink eight 8oz glasses of water every day. This number will be different for everybody, so pay attention to what your body needs, but 8 is an excellent starting point. Don’t forget that this number can be split between different types of liquid. Do not wait until you are thirsty to drink water. If you feel thirsty, you are probably already dehydrated. Furthermore, being thirsty can sometimes cause you to overeat.
Vitamins can be dangerous too. Certain combinations can make you sick or complicate any existing health conditions. You can also overdose on many vitamins. Treat them like medicine and talk to your doctor before starting any supplement regimen.
