Activity Done Versus Calories Burnt

Climbing Stairs is a Foolproof Way for a Quick Workout

​Individuals are more sedentary than active. They eat more than what their body requires. There are almost an equal number of food joints as well as fitness joints. The number of hospitals and dental care points are increasing while immunity and health are decreasing. You feel tired, exhausted and worn out even when you climb a flight of stairs or jog to catch your bus! The only positive solution to all these problems is workout/physical exercise.
​

Are you pleased with your present workout and do they correspond to your health goals according to your weight? Only exercise or only diet will not help you reach your target fitness. You need to combine both, exercise and diet to achieve a healthy weight. If you need a balanced diet that incorporates your current food habits, you need to get in touch with a registered dietitian nutritionist at www.firsteatright.com to help you plan a healthy diet chart.
