Being fit is very important. You never know when there will be a situation where you will have to defend yourself or run from a mugger.

Let’s go over a couple guidelines that can help you stay exceptionally fit. It can be just doing exercises that require bodyweight or light dumbbells. With this small investment you can do overhead presses, lateral raises, curls, extensions, and anything dynamic.

However, if you don’t want to invest money in buying exercise equipment you can always do push ups, pullups, planks, sit ups, body weight squats, and triangular shaped push ups. Always try to do at least five sets of each and increase the number of each set as you progress. These exercises will work on your whole body. However, everyone needs to go a bit of running too. Try to at least run a mile every morning before you start your day.Healthy Food

Nutrition is also a very important part of staying healthy. Everyone needs nutrition daily. What’s wrong with giving up some coco pops and boiling some eggs, eating a vegetable like celery with it, eating some nuts and some oatmeal? Loads of energy in that meal and it has everything you need – protein, healthy fats, complex carbohydrates, and vegetables. It is also prudent to take a multivitamin every morning when you wake up. Have a glass of orange juice or milk in the morning You can give up coffee in lieu of health.

Eating healthy does not mean you starve yourself. Anything in moderation is acceptable. Your body is what’s keeping you going, so always make some effort to keep it in the best shape possible.
