Additional condiments make the food delicious and tasty. However, popular condiments are full of fats. For instance, a spoonful of mayonnaise may add up to 100 body calories or 10 grams of fats. Dip your skinless chicken wing in barbeque sauce and you may be as well taking a deep fried food. Luckily, delicious condiments are not terrible at all. You can simply have your tanginess, creamy sauce with no calories. In this article we have shown you how to have the best choices as you go to shop this coming week.

If you are a mayonnaise fun then you can put up with almost anything. Unluckily mayo is not the best condiment; the truth is non-fat mayonnaise can never be the best option due to sugar and preservative ingredients.  Mayo can be mixed with mustard, spices, yogurt and pepper to have its improved version. Greek yogurt is the best bet as it fast absorbs the entire flavor while enhancing a creamy and smooth condiment. With this swap, you will eliminate up to 20 grams of fat as well as 200 calories for every quarter cup serving. The benefit of using Greek yogurt is that it contains calcium or proteins.

RunningBarefoot Running
By Alesia Hsiao

featured-land-vs-water.jpg

 

With unique ways being established to establish exercising techniques as a favorable way to extract the epitome of health and fashion nowadays, now we can talk about exercise and we cannot avoid the big debate surrounding the fitness freaks. This question might arise in your head “how is water running better than land running?”.

 

Today we look at both these forms of working out and determine which one is better?

  • LAND RUNNING

Treadmill.jpg

Running is better than sitting idle!

 

The terms are not that hard to decipher land running is referred to as running on a treadmill or jogging done on land and we are all familiar with it since most of us at some point in our lives exercise or hit the gym to maintain our health or to improve it.

  • WATER RUNNING

water-run.jpg

Trigger your stamina by jumping into the water and start running!

 

As you can guess water running is referred to as jogging or running done under water and it is the trending thing nowadays since research is trying to prove water running better than land running due to some key reasons which we will be discussing.

HOW IS WATER RUNNING BETTER THAN LAND RUNNING?

  • ADVANTAGE OF BUOYANCY

Exercising under water reduces weight by 90% depending on the depth of water can give you extreme safety with respect to injuries and also exerting less pressure on your bones. Besides, bolted tanks are used anywhere that there is a need for bulk storage of materials, including water, waste-water, dry food or other food products. Which for example are very helpful for navy scouts on training.

  • AQUA JOGGING AND VISCOSITY:

Underwater drag resistance provides the ultimate form of strength for your muscles strictly enhancing the tendons. It also helps in regaining stamina and refreshes the body and its performance helping aqua joggers to establish their strength

  • HYDROSTATIC EFFECT:

Water has a very unique property and its more applicable in cardiovascular where as circulation is also improved and swelling is decreased dramatically. Metabolism is also increased therefore enabling resistance to your post-workout muscle soreness.

  • INTENSITY IS IMPROVED:

Working underwater enables more resistance and intensifies the workout moreover ten percent of the workout is more intensified than working on land because of the great viscosity.

 

So we can see that the statistics don’t lie because as seen by the stat eight calories are burned by land running and 11 calories are burned by water running which shows us who the clear winner but let’s take it from a technical point of view aqua jogging is beneficial not only health wise but on a more scientific level and where as land running costs us heavy amounts for the machinery less incentives are needed for the initiation of water running which makes us think on the fact that how can discovery lead us to such important landmarks. How can we not understate the fact that not only does water running reduce body damage it also produces more efficiency than land running!

 

The benefits and the uses of these exercises are great and should be applied to other sports or athletics which could enhance the ability of the athletes to new levels leading to unimaginable outcomes in the world of sports and could mark a new beginning maybe, a start to something everlasting and better for the world that we humans reside in.

This is when you get to realize that working out goes together with dieting on a decent meal plan to attain the best shape you’ve been wanting to maintain.

 

Preparing a meal for the right way of dieting includes factors to consider. Nutrition, time, and effort for  preparation, seem too simple to keep in mind. All of these have to be in sync as to not mess up with metabolism.

 

Let us tackle some important meal preparation techniques that might be helpful to fitness enthusiasts out there.

 

Preparing on the right day for a crucial preparation

 

maxresdefault.jpg

 

Preparing a healthy meal isn’t as easy as preparing on a daily lunchbox for school or for work. Since you are going to focus more on retaining nutrition with longevity, it takes a detailed procedure in preparing them. Thus, assigning the meals for an entire week on a specific day will save you a demanding routine.

 

Easy and convenient packing

For a very busy person, keeping track with the meals wouldn’t be difficult. Eating does take some important time out of an already filled schedule, thus convenient way of packing can save you minutes, and even hours put altogether in a week. Some fitness-obsessed people even consider on automation to make packing fast and easy, with the use of sous vide bags to skip the washing and reusing.

 

Cooler bags

As mentioned, packaging bags like sous vide bags is one option to store food directly. Now, imagine yourself going to work with your sous vide packaged food. Does it look messy, soggy and unfresh? Cooler bags work well in keeping the meals at an optimum temperature. The insulation within the bag retains the freshness and temperature since the last time you pulled out your pre-packaged food from the fridge. Temperature and pressure are elements to consider for an effective packaging of food that would last till the last day of the week, from home to wherever you’d be throughout the day.

 

Metabolism check

 

Metabolism is what’s on the line here, since the main point of the diet is to normalize and maintain fitness. By eating, at least two to three hours, is enough for an optimum rate on metabolism.

 

Self-check

 

Health-Checkup-Saturdays.jpg

 

The best person to know everything about yourself, is you. So, getting yourself checked on what nutrients you need and in what quantity would really help on getting the amount and kind of food to prepare.

 

These tips combined perfectly with physical exercise will definitely help you get a healthy lifestyle, may even extend your lifespan! Who knows?

How to Lose Weight While Traveling

Lose WeightDiettravel
By Alesia Hsiao

Contrary to popular belief, it is quite possible for one to travel without packing on extra pounds. During vacation or work trips away from home, people tend to forget to make healthy food choices. There are several simple steps that you may implement so that you do not gain any extra weight during your next holiday vacation.

Carrying healthy snacks and bottled water

When you have healthy food with you, it much easier to make good food decisions. You will not need to stop at the fast food restaurant or pass through drive-in if your back has food. You will also be able to easily turn down calorie-laden snacks served in airplanes. You can have fruits and energy bars with you as they are both healthy and easy to carry around contributing to very little of your luggage weight. Since security checkpoints do not normally allow one to come in with their own liquids, an empty water bottle may be carried and filled in the water fountains located beyond the checkpoint.

Walk as frequently as possible

It is very easy to remain sedentary during a long drive or long journey by plane. Those driving are encouraged to make frequent pit stops to stretch out their legs and encourage blood flow to their limbs. It is also possible to walk a few times up and down the airplane aisle to serve the same purpose. Even at your destination, walking where possible should be chosen instead of taking cabs.

Rest up

Sleep is vital and it is important that you get as much of it as possible. This can be done by stopping at motels in the case of long drives or having a neck pillow and a portable music player if necessary for plane rides. It is also advised that even on arrival at your destination, enough time should be set aside to rest every day. This is because when you are tired, you tend to eat a lot more than if you’re well rested.

Schedule exercise

It is important that you set aside time for exercise even when you are on vacation. There are various ways one can ensure they meet their exercise quota, examples include using fitness tools provided in the motel you are staying in, devoting time to take walks or running, carrying portable exercise equipment such as skipping ropes and planning activities that require some level of physical involvement. It is also advised that when you go sightseeing, you should do it on foot where possible.

Be selective with the food you eat

Healthy food choices, even in restaurants, are a must. Pick lean meat and dishes without heavy sauces, go for salads without dressing- it is important that you make good food choices throughout. Pick healthy snacks instead of high-calorie snacks and on some evenings dine in, instead of going out to eat. Eat in restaurants with healthy food choices rather than fast food joints.



So, if you are in Paris dining at the Le Calife, eating at the La Pergola in Rome, enjoying bushmeat at the Carnivore in Nairobi, or are driving through the Woodlands in Texas, wherever your travels take you, remember to eat healthy to help you keep a lean healthy body.

Yoga Retreat for Beginners

YogaFitnessYoga Instructor
By Alesia Hsiao



There are many indoor activities to stay healthy with, and the mind is as important as the body. Yoga is held in both ancient and modern esteem as a wonderful treatment for the health of the body and the mind. It requires no special equipment or set of skills to begin. No certain body types or size is required. For those who would like and benefit from some instruction, you may enjoy the immersive nature of a yoga retreat for beginners!

 

Are You Experienced?

 

When picking which yoga retreat to attend, keep in mind the type of experience that you are hoping for.

 

  • There are retreats that are fully immersive, controlling your diet and other factors as well as with yogic exercise. These ashrams are almost always strictly vegetarian.

  • Some retreats focus on detaching from society, with no cell phone connections, no internet service, and no televisions and the like. Are you REALLY needed at ALL times?

  • For those seeking a more mystical experience, there are yoga retreats with a stronger emphasis on the spiritual as well. Some claim that yoga can help connect you to otherworldly experiences and even past lives. Eh, maybe?

  • Most people in the US though seek a de-stressing environment that still predominantly resembles their lifestyle.

  • Yoga focuses on poses and breathing, and different schools relate the two in different ratios of importance.

 

Location, Location, Location

 

Yoga transcends all cultures and is practiced in all corners of the world. You choices are nearly limitless!

 

  • If you want the yoga with a bit less of the guru part of the whole deal, you might choose to stick to a retreat in the US.

  • If you are looking to de-stress and have a yoga holiday, consider a retreat location near other interesting things for the trip to and back.

  • One of the most impactful location considerations is nature. If your retreat is in a lovely natural setting then you are bound to relax and enjoy!

  • If cost is an important factor to your decision, you will likely be able to find a retreat not too far from your home to avoid costly travel expenses.

  • However, if you think it is still out of your budget then you can build your own yoga retreat center in your backyard and in this regard, you will just have to buy a shed at an economical price with the consent of yoga fellows and start performing yoga there at a fixed time. Cost could be distributed among participants equally.  

 

 

Get the Results

 

There is a reason that yoga has maintained popularity over literally millennia!

 

  • Improved posture.

  • Stronger muscles.

  • Denser bones.

  • Better balance, which is one of the first things to be affected by age.

  • Clearer and deeper breathing.

  • Relaxation.

  • Introspection.

  • Mindfulness.

  • Stress reduction and management.

  • Alleviate high blood pressure.

  • Management of depression and anxiety.

 

Decide, Then Stop

 

Well, where do you think will be the best beginner yoga retreat for you? Somewhere steeped in ancient traditions and far off the beaten path? Or a glass-walled urban ashram high in the steel sky? Or maybe the one not too far from you, settled into the forest or upon the lake’s edge? No matter which you choose, you are making a wonderfully healthy choice with yoga!
