When most people think of resolutions they think of working out and or exercising which is what I am going to talking about today.

I want to give the the top three things I do to keep in shape. Now, I am not the best at this, but it has sure helped accomplish some exercise rather than none.

So here we go…

1.) Stretch – I usually stretch about 10 minutes every day. I am not sure where I read this, but stretching 20 minutes a day for a year can add up to five pounds of muscle to your frame. Not bad for doing nothing but a little stretch in the morning. Not to mention how stretching helps deter bodily injury and pulled muscles. Stretching is a win/win situation.

2.) Drink a Gallon Of Water EVERY DAY! – I “try” to drink a gallon of water EVERY day and nothing else. I mean I don’t drink pop or juice or anything along those lines. Once again, not sure where I read this, but cutting all sugary drinks from your diet will also allow you to lose up to 5 pounds of fat in one year. Now when you drink that much water you will be able to see some drastic changes. Not only will you be using the bathroom a lot more, you will have more energy, your skin will clear up, and you will just feel generally better throughout the day.

3.) Eat 2 Servings Of Fruit and Vegetables Every Day – Now I know you hear this one a lot too but it is something I think you should do. I do my best to eat some fruit and vegetables every day. Even if I cant eat two servings, I try to get something in my system. I was on this kick where I was eating an apple every morning but I stopped because I got lazy and quit. I am not back on that kick and I must say I feel so much better after eating an apple every day. And just to let you know, although fresh veggies and fruit are the best, to save time and money go with frozen stuff. I buy the little bags of frozen vegetables and they seem to be working just fine.

So there you have it. I bet you thought I was going to have you running around the block and doing push-ups and all that crap didn’t you? Well not me. I must admit that exercising is VERY important but it is not EASY. That is why I gave a list of “3 Easy Ways To Stay Fit”.

So go on my children and be fit. If you have any questions about what I published today, send us an e-mail. Be safe, and never give up!
