Our Mission:
To bring together health and fitness information that continues to motivate and inspire movement within each and every one of us to live our lives to the fullest.
Every Sunday morning, there will be a running/walking group starting at various parts of San Antonio. They range from 2 miles to 24 depending on the time of the season and nearing of a big event. Stay posted and feel free to join as we take on the streets of San Antonio. Route of the week....
Exercise of the week:
Starting Position: Lie on your side on a mat/floor with your legs extended straight away from your body. Hold your feet together in neutral position and your lower arm bent and positioned under your head for support, while the upper arm rests in front of your chest on the floor. Your hips and shoulder should be aligned vertically to the floor. Your head should be aligned with your spine.
Year after year “Get Fit” and “Lose Weight” make it in the top 10 New Year’s resolution goals. Year after year February comes around and the goals set out to lead a healthier life fall by the way side. Why do you think that is? Did you set goals that were unachievable or out of reach? Did you get discouraged because you didn’t see instant results? Whatever the case may be, remember it is never too late to reestablish your goals from 2010, 2009, or even 1999.
1. Write down realistic and specific goals. For example, I will walk 3 times per week for 30 minutes or I will try a new fruit, vegetable, or whole grain each week.
2. Write down “WHY” this is a goal for 2011. Is it to fit in a size 8 pair of jeans or to set a good example for your children?
3. Place those goals on the refrigerator or above your computer as a daily reminder.
You have to start somewhere and this will get you off on the right foot for 2011. Remember to go to the exercise of the week and incorporate those exercises into your exercise routine to add variety and to increase your lean mass.
