To Chew On:
Friday
- Thank God for Crises
Acts
16:29 (NKJV)
Then
he called for a light, ran in, and fell down trembling before Paul and Silas.
Thought
For The Day:
We
have been called by love to be God’s people, to be filled with Spirit, to
communicated His Love. We need nothing or no one; therefore we can use
everything and serve everyone to glorify God and enjoy Him.
Happy
“Fitness Friday!!” If you haven’t been working out now is the time to Get Off Of Your Rusty Dusty and Start
Moving!!! J Don’t commit Food- Suicide
if you eat the wrong foods for a length of time…. You are cutting your life
short… that was dropped in my spirit… it is one thing to have a good meal (Down
home cooked Meal with all the fixings) but not just every day (we do have a
blow day) meaning we eat whatever you want for that day and then we go back to
our routine of healthy eating and exercising…. That will handle the craving that
we all get….we must learn how to eat in moderation. So we are in this together….
And the Battle is Already Won!!! We will reach our goal and live longer and healthier!!!
Have
a Great Day with HHWN!!! J
Other
considerations for the overweight exerciser
If
you are on anti-hypertensive medication, take care to avoid adverse responses
like orthostatic hypotension which may cause fainting.
If
you are a diabetic, take special care to avoid hypoglycemic responses from
anti-diabetic medication. Talk to your doctor about these before exercising.
Avoid
exercises that tend to chaff your inner thighs and wear the best shoes you can
afford to limit the possibility of injury.
Don't
hold your breath and please exhale during the effort part of an exercise. And
don't do too many sit ups due to the weight of the chest may impede your
breathing. You may stand with both hands against the wall and rounding the back
while contracting the abdomen.
Consistent
and quality effort toward elderly exercise and obesity will result in greater
health and vitality.
MOVE…Shake
Up Your Workout Routine
What
followed? Four hours of movement broken
into sessions of combined group and individual activities designed to provide
personal challenges in various movement modalities. We experienced the opportunity to try Thai
Chi moves, Free moves, and Modern Dance.
There were no weights, balls, steps, or competitions. The class was designed to be an exhibition of
movement not a personal or group competition.
However, I feel each of us found ourselves competing with our own
thoughts on how we personally move to different rhythms. A workshop
which gave permission to explore. It was an adult playground where we
interacted, danced, smiled, jumped, ran, interpreted, and experienced
movement. The overall body workout
experience combining cardio, functional movements, dance, and free moves. We did in fact, sweat! A lot.
A
Healthy Menu For
Day
Five
Have
a cup of cooked oatmeal topped with 1/2 cup of skim milk, 2 tbsp. of raisins
and 1 tsp. of brown sugar. For lunch, stir 1/4 cup of salsa into 1 cup of
nonfat, plain Greek yogurt. Use as a dip for one serving of baked tortilla
chips, 1 cup carrot sticks and a sliced red pepper. At dinner, make a mock
pizza with a whole-wheat English muffin, 1/4 cup of marinara sauce and 1 1/2
oz. of part-skim mozzarella cheese. Toss a large green salad on the side with
low-calorie dressing. Snacks for this day are 3 cups of air-popped popcorn
topped with 1 tbsp. of shredded Parmesan cheese and a glass of red wine or a
whole apple.
