Don't get me wrong-exercise is a vital ingredient for improving your fitness level
, health and the shape of your body. Exercise and good nutrition go hand-in-hand. You won't make progress toward your goals without them both.To be perfectly honest, I would love to discuss only exercise. To divulge how I can sculpt the human body into a finely tuned machine of strength and agility. However, it just wouldn't be practical to ignore your diet.You see, I write this newsletter to benefit you. As a personal trainer I make sure my clients have the diet tips and tricks to improve their health.Which leads us to the disturbing truth...Your diet is ruining your body.I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but someone had to say it. Until you take charge of your diet, all the talk in the world about exercise won't help much at all.Today's statistics show that nearly 60% of the population is currently overweight or obese. While this is shocking, according to a new study reported by WebMD, three out of four US adults will be overweight or obese by the year 2015. That's 75% of us.Wow, those are some scary numbers. I know you don't want to be just another statistic.So what's the deal? Why are we getting fatter and fatter? It all comes back to that little word...diet. The diet of today's adult is simply out of control. Here's why: Portions gone wild. It all started in the 1970's. Restaurants began to increase their portions and as a result the unsuspecting public ate more. Since then portions have continued to grow and most people continue to clear their plates despite the extra calories. Convenience food mayhem. Junk food used to be only found in vending machines-not so today. Have you ever noticed how the checkout line in the supermarket has changed in recent years? It used to be stocked with gum, mints and a few candy bars. Nowdays, everything from ice cream to pizza is within an arm's lenght. Very few people get through their day without consuming some kind of convenience food. Fast food fallout. How many fast food restaurants do you pass on your way to work? Probably more than you can count. How many times do you stop in for a quick bite? Many more times than you'd like to admit, even to yourself. Fast food has never been more available than it is today-and it shows in the waistline. Here's something you may not know: If you were to exercise everyday of the week but failed to change your eating habits from those listed above, you wouldn't see any visible results.Now don't get me wrong-exercise is a vital ingredient for improving your fitness level, health and the shape of your body. Exercise and good nutrition go hand-in-hand. You won't make progress toward your goals without them both.So where does this leave you? The way I see it, you are faced with an opportunity. With just a few small changes to your daily eating habits you could be well on your way to having an incredible body. Couple this with an exercise program and you will be unstoppable.It's always been my goal to give you no-nonsense tips to improve your health and well-being - here are three easy ways to improve your diet. Slash your portions. Even though that mountain of pasta looks great, remind yourself that it is three or four times more than you really need to eat, and those extra calories are going to land right on your waist. Consciously make an effort to reduce your portions at each meal and watch how your weight shrinks and your energy soars. Pack your snacks. Instead of turning to a bag of chips or packaged cookies in mid afternoon, reach for a piece of fruit instead. It only takes a few minutes to pack healthy snacks for your day, and it will save you a boatload of extra calories. Junk food is packed with fats, sugars and empty calories, think about how much better you'll feel even cutting out one fast food meal per week. If you currently eat 5 fast food meals each week then only eat four this week. Next week reduce that number down to three. And then two, and then one. Once fast food isn't a regular part of your diet you should look at it as something to be had as a treat-not a dietary staple. Now that you have three simple ways to drastically improve your eating habits, this brings us back to exercise. Challenge yourself with new and exciting workouts to achieve lasting results. It's as simple as that.
