25 Things I learned
1. Dating back to the first week of school, it was instructed to eat at least 1 piece of fruit, some water, and toast, or grains. I then researched why it was important which helped me appreciate the advice along with the advantages to my health.
2. I learned that it is important to substitute soy protein instead of animal protein. Soy protein, it has been proven that they register lower levels of cholesterol.
3. Drinking green tea daily helps lower cholesterol, and helps prevent existing cholesterol in your blood from oxidizing.
4. When referring to exercise zones there is not one zone that burns just one thing, a ratio of fat, cabs, and proteins.
5. It is important to spend 6-8 weeks in an adaptive phase of weight training in order to avoid tendonitis.
6. I learned the importance of setting two week plans, or any goals for that matter. I had always known the importance, but never really experienced how rewarding and effective these plans are, especially in reaching my physical goal.
7. I learned of the damage that sugar does on your heart, which also lead to very high cholesterol.
8. If a so called “addictive food” has more than 5 ingredients, you should not eat it. I have paid attention to labels and made smarter choices in the foods I choose to buy
9. For middle aged men and woman, as myself, the benefits of fish consumption outweigh the risks of the consumption of the fish itself.
10. For greater control of your body fat is important to consume 40 to 50 grams of fiber per day. I took heed and now eat what I can to intake those fiber grams per day.
11. An anti-inflammatory diet is very helpful for managing or even reducing chronic inflammation-related conditions like diabetes and obesity
12. I learned to effectively use my heart rate monitor to take my heart rate, what I most enjoyed about this is the fact that I sometimes forgot my heart rate monitor and I learned to take my heart rate with my hand and the 10 second rule. I never knew
