10 Habits To Stay Fit

               1. EXERCISE. Even if you only have 15 minutes to do it. A short gym routine is better than nothing if you’re really strapped for time or just plain exhausted. If you don’t have time to get to your gym but have 15 minutes before you have to shower to go meet your friends for dinner. Do squats and  jumps.

2. GET A FITNESS TRACKER. They’re not cheap, plan to invest around $100 to $130, but they really do make you walk more, especially if you’re the type of person motivated by goals. You’d be surprised how little you walk in a day if you have a desk job. You’re supposed to walk 10,000 steps a day so keep yourself moving!

3. MIX YOUR ROUTINE. Do Yoga one day, interval training the next, and a light jog the following day, even try to do Zumba if you want new dancing moves and always the barre burn. If your fitness routine doesn’t bore you, you’re more likely to stick to it. So keep them coming!

4. PURPOSE. Don’t wait for an occasion to get in shape. If you only rush to the gym six weeks before you have a tight dress to wear to a party, or your wedding or somebody else’s wedding. You’ll kill yourself trying to meet unrealistic goals and feel miserable and down on yourself and be no fun at all. Then when it’s all over, of course you won’t want to go back to working out! Fitness is a lifestyle, not an exercise in vanity.

5. EAT REAL FOOD. 70% of your health and fitness goals is due to food. Don’t swear off alcohol, sweets or breads. You’ll be miserable and binge and feel bad, and then swear off all that food again and the cycle will repeat and you’ll feel worse every time! Don’t do it. Eat everything in moderation and also plan your meals in advance, even just one meal per day, can make it easier and less stressful to eat healthy.

19 Best Exercises

                  The 19 moves below are exercises that directly work the core muscles or are total body moves that keep the core engaged throughout the whole sequence. Proper form is of the utmost importance. Before adding additional reps or extra challenges with weights or other equipment (stability ball, medicine ball, resistance bands, etc.), be sure you have mastered the simplest form of the move.

1. Forearm Plank with Alternating Hip Drops: (1) Get into forearm plank position. Keep your abs tight and make sure your body is in a straight line from head to ankles. (2) Drop your right hip towards the floor, return to center and then repeat with your left hip. (3) Alternate sides for 60 seconds. For an easier modification, drop your knees and perform the move.                                                                                                                                          2. Side Crunch: (1) Start by lying on the floor face up with your knees together and bent at a 90-­degree angle. Without moving your upper body, lower your knees to the right side so that they’re touching the floor. Place your fingers behind your head. (2) Raise your shoulders toward your hips, pause for one second, and then take two seconds to lower your upper body back to the starting position. (3) Perform this move for 30 seconds and then switch your legs to the other side for an additional 30 seconds.

3. Side Plank: (1) Lie on your left side with your right leg stacked on top of your left leg. Prop your upper body up on your left arm, keeping your hand directly below your shoulder. Keep your core tight and contracted. (2) Lift your hips up until your body forms a straight line from your ankles to your shoulders. (3) That’s one set. Complete one set on your left side for 30 seconds. (4) Turn around so that you’re lying on your right side and repeat for 30seconds.For an easier modification, drop to your elbow, pushing off your forearm and/or use your leg closest to the ground as a kickstand for additional support.                                                                    Image:Source
