Most people think that they must do intense workouts in order to successfully lose weight. Luckily, this is not the case! All you need to do is make sure your mind is on the right track and be persistent in your exercising. THE IMPORTANCE OF A NUTRITIOUS DIET In most cases, people pay more attention to the workout neglecting the fact that exercise is merely a part of the equation for losing weight. In reality, 80% of weight loss is stimulated by a healthy diet and only 20% come from performing physical activities. This is a reason why you should start thinking about making healthy changes to your eating habits. Always keep in mind that your body needs the proper nutrient balance. Carbohydrates, proteins, and fats are the providers of 100% of our energy. The difference between these nutrients is based on how fast they transform into energy. Carbohydrates transform the fastest and fats the slowest of all. There are numerous options for you if you decide to stick to ...

Remember the days when "work" meant manual labor with a side of blood, sweat, and tears? Neither do we. These days it seems we're more likely to log hour after idle hour with our bums glued to our seats. And while you may be an Excel champ by day and gym rat by night, recent research suggests that the recommended 30 minutes of cardio five times per week may not undo the health risks of a sedentary lifestyle. So what's a worker chained to his or her desk to do? Luckily short bouts of aerobics, strength exercises, and stretching in between conference calls and Gchats can help improve fitness levels and heart health. While these exercises, or desk exercises for the cubicle-bound, won't promise Olympic mile times or six-pack abs, they might just improve strength and burn a few extra calories to boot. So whether it's Powerpoint, Photoshop, or emails on that to-do list, we've got 33 sneaky exercises for a healthier (and happier!) workday. 1. The Twi...
