Have You Been Feeling
Tired Lately?
Here are 6 Tips to Fight Fatigue and Increase Energy
NATURALLY
TIP ONE
ALWAYS put health as #1 priority. When health struggles,
everything else in your life MUST slow down. Remember
that health means many things: your physical health
(energy level, absence of illness, fitness level) as
well as mental and emotional health. Often highly
motivated athletes will compromise health in pursuit of
fitness. This always has negative repercussions in the
long-term.
TIP TWO
Eat
healthy, natural foods and follow your natural appetite.
Eating well is simple – you don’t have to study caloric
ratios, blood types, point score your meals or use
methods that involve deprivation or restriction.
Emphasize foods that are natural and healthy and avoid
heavily processed, packaged, frozen and fast foods. Eat
until your satisfied (not full) and make meal times a
quiet, relaxing, enjoyable experience. If you're still
feeling a bit low on power between meals, try a
Cytomax
drink for a bit of a boost without the sugar crash
afterwards. If you're stuck on the road or low on time,
mix yourself a
PreFormance
rather than doing the McD's drive-through.
TIP THREE
Do
sustained cardiovascular exercise at comfortable pace
(80% of maximum heart rate or less) several times per
week. Start slow if you have to - a 10-minute workout
can help change your life. Even 1hr, 30min of exercise
per week can DRAMATICALLY reduce risk factors of
sedentary lifestyle.
TIP FOUR
Build energy naturally by doing a simple breathing and
relaxing session EVERY morning.
TIP FIVE
Drink 1.5-2kg of water each day. Proper hydration helps
with hormonal and immune system function, as well as
efficient fat metabolism. Mix some
Cytomax
with one of these bottles to avoid that bloated feeling.
Remember, if you become thirsty, you have gone way below
adequate hydration levels.
TIP SIX
Get
enough sleep that you don't need an alarm clock every
day. Strive to wake up naturally refreshed and energized
every morning. Avoid activities that are over
stimulating at bedtime, such as television. Wind down
slowly with a book or perhaps some simple breathing and
stretching exercises before sleep. Sleep will be the
answer to many energy problems.
