In our busy lives we become so involved that we never get time or even try to make time to take of our health.
Today, we've got ourselves a little time to do something.There are people who make time and follow their schedule to be fit, also there are people dreaming for their bodies to get fit.
Moving our lazy ass- we've did a few activites only in dreaming for our perfect body.
Take a look and make it on your schedule, it's always fun.
Also make sure to tell us on our social media. Links are provided down below.
Early morning fresh air,
calmness all around also starting your day with a smile :)
That's the best way to start taking care of your body.
ACTIVITY 1
"When the muscle and machine connects extraordinary things happen."
Oh yes! that's right talking all about cycling.
Get up,
take your cycle,
hit the roads and perfect- you are already half fit. Wondering how? This is how is it.
A little statistical information.
1. One hour of cycling on a regular pace can make you burn up-to 415 calories.
2. Decreases the body fat levels.
3. Increases the cardiovascular muscle fitness.
4. Decreases the stress levels.
5.Strengthens the bones.
Now that's a lot of biology only in one single activity.
Cycling is fun, but what if the cycling track takes you into the woods? That makes it more interesting making us forget the time
For about an hour is all we did.Not forgetting the morning sunrise you get to see while you keep cycling.
After such tiring activity we always need to relax.
Hydrating our body is the most important.If your body is not hydrated, you feel exhausting,tired and restless. We don't want that to happen- so water is a must.
ACTIVITY 2
Remember Jumping Rope?
Everybody has once a while at least tried it. It's easy but if you are doing it wrong- then you can never enjoy it.
* Never do it on an empty stomach or when you've just had your food.* And that's the only rule to remember.
ACTIVITY 3
After these physical activities, to calm your mind and to soothe your soul we need some mental activity too.
The minute you read about mental activity-everybody knows it's YOGA.
YOGA takes you into the present moment,the only place where life exists.
Practicing and making yoga a part of our everyday busy lives makes your mind calm and reduce your stress.
Yoga has taught us:
- Honor your body.
- Let go of the things that do not serve you.
- Breathe.
- Be present and be okay with it.
- You can achieve more than what you think.
A little more values.
Even 30 minutes of yoga per day can help you burn 120 calories ( when done correctly)
ASANA
It is the posture or pose in which you sit or stand while practicing yoga. There are many types of asana and here are a few of them.The poses and stretches help to have physical and mental health benefits.
Siddasana
From the seating position, one heel is brought with the sole of the feet touching the inner thighs. Similarly it is done with the other leg until the body is comfortable. Such a pose is called the Siddasana or it is the accomplished pose.
If you are not comfortable with bringing the heels onto the thighs- no problem you can always sit in which ever way you are comfortable, keeping your body straight and having a calm mind is all we need for yoga.
Any comfortable position
Vrikasana
From your standing position, the whole body weight is shifted to one leg,starting with the left leg.The entire sole remains to be in contact with the floor. The right knee is bent and is brought to the inner thigh.The hands are typically brought upwards.This is called the vrikasana or the tree pose.
Vrikasana
PASCHIMA NAMASKARAM
From the standing position,hands behind the back, the palms are placed against each other.This hand position is called the Anjali Mudra. This helps in stretching your body and in keeping your spine straight.
Pashchima Namaskaram
While practicing yoga,
- Do not out excessive pressure on your body.
- Practice yoga in a open place breathing fresh air.
