Keep fit!

Hi bloggers ;)

I´m going to talk about exercise, food, weight… and all those topics we teenagers are obsessed with.

I´m going to start with some tips for having a healthy diet:

As you know, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. For having a good breakfast you may mix dairy products (a glass of milk or a yogurt), fruits (or low sugar content juices) and bread (toasts or whole grain bread). You must have a lot of energy for the whole morning.

At 11 o´clock more or less, you should eat a piece of fruit or a small sandwich that will help you to finish the morning.

For lunch, eating three different plates is the best. The first one could be a salad (3 or 4 days per week), legumes(3 or 4 days per week) or pasta (1 or 2 days per week). I recommend that you don't add a lot of fat on the second plate, with a piece of white fish, chicken, beef or (sometimes) pork it is enough. The dessert is the perfect moment for adding another fruit because they are very healthy and they are loaded with vitamins. If you prefer, a youghurt it is also fine.

At mid-afternoon you might have a snack, low calorie content (of course).

When you arrive home at the end of the day for dinner you should eat less than you have eaten for lunch. Salad or veggies and fish will be perfect.

All in all, this healthy diet isn´t so healthy if you don't drink two litres of water each and every day, because water cleans our body outside and inside. With this diet and the low calories content you won´t lose weight all the way around, you will stay healthier than ever and you will avoid all those fat, additives and transgenic products that are making our lives shorter and shorter. If you have a healthy diet you won´t need to lose any weight, no matter what you think of it, and for people that really need to lose it, or for the ones that love sports, here are some excellent apps and advice you will adore.

LIFESUM: It is an amazing FREE app. It controls your weight, the calories you can eat everyday and if you do something wrong a big red notification will punish you. It is amazing because you can introduce the information about the food you eat everyday and it calculates the calories. If it doesn´t find the type of food, you can scan its bar code and the app will recognize it. Isn´t that incredible? The app itself can send you healthy recipes, remember what you have had for breakfast and repeat it daily, etc.

NIKE APPS: Nike has developed five apps for training wherever you are. Nike Running controls you when you go out for running, it records every single place you pass through and how many kilometers you have done. Nike Training Club is another app that contains more than one hundred trainings and exercises. You can decide what to do, to tone up, cardiovascular training… There are plenty of trainings with plenty of exercises inside them and videos that explain every movement.

They are really good and free, which is a good point.

For more information visit the App Store or the Games Store.

If you are very lazy and you don´t know how to play some sports because you prefer to stay at home, I recommend Wii games like Rumba or Just Dance, which are really funny and you would like the music a lot. I also recommend to follow @FITNESSpics on twitter for motivation, interesting tips and information about food like: chocolate that doesn´t make you gain weight but helps you have flat abs.

That is all for today, I hope you like the apps and you decide to play more healthy sports, at least twenty-five minutes everyday. If you have any doubt you can inquire it in the comments and I will answer. Here are some links about exercise and healthy food for you to look at.

If you want to try some exercises these ones are the best for starters and I have added some others that are a little bit more difficult. I have found them on a very interesting website:

  1. These is a theme of all the time, very entertaining; we all known the theory. However is more difficult to put it on practice... It's amazing what you can do with a simple apparatus as a telephone with one of these apps can do! I have to add that the second app, is very useful and it never fails, I recommend you to use it if you have the chance.

  2. I didn´t know lots of thing before reading the article, it is very interesting! It is essential to have a healthy balanced diet; the quiality of food is very important for being healthy, the sport as well. However, although I think that this is an interesting theme, in my opinion we don't have to be very obssesed with it, and some people is.
