How To Lose Belly Fat With A 10 Minute Workout

Are you looking to change the shape of your body or trying to lose belly fat without joining a high priced gym? If so, try this high energized cardiovascular fitness routine that that was developed by Keli Roberts.

With this 10 minute exercise routine you can burn up to 150 calories every single day.

The first two minutes of this fat burning routine is: Jump Rope - Begin by performing two jumps for each turn of the rope. Safety: Use the correct size jump rope and always land softly on the balls of your feet (that is the upper part of the bottom of your foot). Keep thinking I am losing weight.

Minutes two to three: Squat Thrust into a Push Up. The proper technique for this exercise is to stand with your feet shoulder width apart and your arms strait down next to your sides. Slowly squat down with your head forward and bring your hands to the floor just outside of your feet. Your hands should be pointing forward as well. Then in one movement, push your legs back and out behind you (into a pushup position). Perform one strict pushup and then jump back into your squat position and then stand back up. Keep thinking, the fat is vanishing.

Minutes three to four: Jump Rope with only one jump per turn. Keep thinking, The fat is melting away.

Minutes four to five: Back to the Squat Thrust and Push Up only this time you are going to add the Side Plank. After completing your squat thrust and push up, you are going to lift and rotate your left arm off of the ground and over your head. Your left foot will rotate and rest on top of you right foot. And you will rotate your neck so you are looking up at your ceiling. Rotate back to the center and repeat on the other side. When finished, hop back into your squat position, stand up and start again. Keep thinking, no more belly.

Minutes five and six: Jump Rope. Same as minutes three and four. keep thinking, I am losing body fat.

Minutes six and seven: Back to the Squat Thrust and Push Up only this time you are going to add the Leg Lift. This is the same as minutes two and three only this time you will lift the toes of one foot about twelve inches off of the ground only after you have performed your push up. Lower your foot and repeat on the other side. Hop back up to your squat position, stand up, and start again. Keep thinking, goodbye belly.

Minutes seven and eight: Jump Rope. Same as minutes three and four. Keep thinking, my belly is getting smaller.

Minutes eight and nine: Back to the Squat Thrust and Push Up only this time you are going to add Mountain Climbers. Repeat everything as in minutes two and three only this time after your push up, you will quickly jog in place from your push up position. Make sure you bring your knees up to your chest on each rotation. Perform 5 jogs and repeat this entire process. Keep thinking, I am going to lose weight.

Minutes nine and ten: Jump Rope. Same as you first two minutes. Keep thinking. If I do this everyday, I will lose belly fat. Good luck to everyone.

We recommend using a soft padding such as a yoga mat when performing this exercise. This will cut down on any injury and save some of those knee joints for you. If you need more information on gym mats and yoga mats, please visit Ultimate Fitness Equipment - for all of your fitness needs.

10 Ways to Strengthen Your Immune System

Our immune systems are under the attack. Due to increased polltion and decreased quality regulations on everyday products, our bodies now have to work harder than ever before to keep us in a state of questionable health. And if that weren’t bad enough, they are forced to operate without the necessary tools because we fail to consume adequate nutrients…then we wonder why so many people get sick. Because a healthy immune system will actually help guard against cancer and heart disease, as well as lesser issues like frequent illness and acne, it is important that we give it the best care we can.

1) Exercise

Exercising helps to circulate lymph fluid, white blood cells that fight disease-causing pathogens.

2) Take a Multi-Vitamin

“The alarming fact is that foods (fruits, vegetables, and grains) now being raised on millions of acres of land that no longer contain enough of certain minerals are starving us - no matter how much of them we eat. No man today can eat enough fruits and vegetables to supply his (or her) system with the minerals he requires for perfect health because his stomach isn’t big enough to hold them The truth is that our foods vary enormously in value, and some them aren’t worth eating as food Our physical well-being is more directly dependent upon the minerals we take into our systems than on calories or vitamins or upon the precise proportions of starch, protein or carbohydrates we consume.”

The preceding quote is from Senate Document 264, dated 1936.

3) Use Organic Cleaners

Regular household cleaners contain toxic chemicals that harm the immune and respiratory systems. It is a common misconception that spraying everything with disinfectant is healthy–on the contrary, if the chemicals will kill germs, think about what they do to our own immune systems (especially pets and children, who are both smaller and closer to the surfaces). The best way to avoid becoming ill from bacterial contact is to strengthen our resistance against it.

4) Switch Personal Care Products

Most hair care and skin care products contain harmful ingredients that are soaked right into the skin. Find some that contain all-natural ingredients, and don’t be mislead by fancy advertising.

5) Keep Houseplants

Plants help to filter toxins out of the air and replace them with oxygen.

6) Get 8 Hours a Night

Deep sleep allows the release of the growth hormone. This aids in efficient absorption of nutrients and amino acids, as well as stimulation of the bone marrow (where immune cells are “born”).

7) Cut Sugar

One hundred grams of sugar can reduce the white blood cell’s ability to kill germs by 40% for 5 hours.

8) Get Plenty of Fresh Air

“Understanding indoor air as I do, it is my contention that our immune systems are being compromised . . .from being ‘overwhelmed’ by polluted indoor environments which are loaded with airborne contaminants.” (Dan Schilling, Building Inspector and Indoor Air Specialist)

9) Avoid Antibiotics if Possible

Antibiotics override and disable the body’s immune system.

10) Drink More Water

Dehydration leads to excess body fat (yes, drinking water helps promote weight loss), joint pain, increased toxicity, and decreased nutrient absorbtion. Be sure to avoid dehydrating beverages, such as coffee and soda.
