Drink more water to get fit!







2 questions for you:

- Do you drink water?
- How much water do you drink?

Listen people, if you don't drink water don't even bother worrying about dieting, working out, loosing weight, building muscle, taking supplements, or anything related to health. Instead, just start drinking water now. Drinking water is as important as breathing, but for some reason we tend to forget about the fluid that constitute more than 60% of our bodies. People have replaced water with all kinds of juices, coffees, energy drinks, and sodas. No wonder why there are so many diabetic, dehydrated, and obese people out there. 
Don't get me wrong, I understand that a coffee wakes you up in the morning far more effectively than a cup of water, and that a Coke or an Orange juice tastes much better than a water bottle. But come on! you are just putting caffeine and sugar in your body. These drinks will dehydrate you and make you weaker, while drinking water would improve your energy and focus, boost your metabolism, flush out the toxins in your body, improve your skin, reduce your risk of heart attack, and more. I could write a book listing all the benefits of drinking water, so do yourself a favor and drink some water right now. And if you diet or workout, you need to drink even more water. People that are trying to achieve fitness goals, whether it is to gain muscle, lose fat, or perform better, are constantly pushing their bodies and therefore need better care than people that aren't. Without drinking the proper amount of water, you will not be able to build muscle and burn fat efficiently. Moreover, if you are not properly hydrated your blood volume will decrease, which will cause a reduction in the supply of oxygen to your muscles and consequently make you feel tired, which would affect your performance. Water also assists your muscles in their ability to contract, and it lubricates your joints, which reduces soreness. Therefore, water will help you gain muscle, lose weight, and improve your performance. 
Seriously, just drink more water and you will automatically see positive results in and out of the weight room.

Best energy drink? Advocare Spark Review


Advocare against competition

Nowadays you can find energy drinks pretty much everywhere you go. They come in different flavors, sizes and prices, and people seem to love them all. The idea of drinking something that will wake you up and give you the necessary energy to workout or simply get through your day, is just great. However, many of these drinks are loaded with sugar, caffeine, taurine, calories, and carbohydrates. And even if the drinks are great and do the job, it just doesn't seem healthy to drink them. Well, that is where Advocare Spark steps in. I have not tried a healthier and more effective energy drink out there. It is fuel with more vitamins than any other energy drink, less caffeine and taurine than most, and it is only 45 calories. In my home, my wife was a huge fan of the Monster Energy Drink and was stubborn about trying any other energy drink. She thought no other energy drink could give her the same energy. Well, I made her try the Spark, and she loved it. It waked her up even faster than the Monster, it didn't give her the jitters, and it made her feel focus an energized for hours. Spark is sugar-free, it has more than 20 vitamins, minerals and nutrients, and it is only 45 calories. Most importantly, unlike the other energy drinks, Spark displays all the nutritional facts you want to know in their canister and pouches.

The way it works is pretty easy, the caffeine and the taurine gives you the fast energy kick that you are looking for, while the B vitamins give you the long-lasting energy by enhancing your body's ability to produce and sustain energy. They also enhance the metabolism and makes your body use the calories stored for energy. Finally, Spark also gives you mental focus with the neuro-active amino acids (like L-tyrosine) it contains. These amino acids support your brain's ability to receive and send messages to and from the nervous system. Some of them also serve as precursors for neurotransmitters. So, in simple words, Spark gives you a lot of vitamins, quick energy, long lasting energy, and mental focus.

           


Besides all these, there are some other things about the Spark that makes it better than the rest. I personally love the fact that it is not carbonated because it doesn't make me feel uncomfortable when I take it before working out. I also like the fact that it doesn't make me feel jittery, and since it is so full of vitamins, it doesn't make me feel a strong crash when the effects are over. The fact that it is dissolved in water is great too, since it doesn't give the feeling of a sticky and dry mouth, and it makes it easier for the body to absorb the vitamins. At last, I love the energy and focus that it gives. It is just amazing how focussed it makes me feel, so much, that I used to take the Spark when I was studying or was going to take a test.

Anyways, if you care about what you put in your body, Advocare Spark is the solution for you. It gives vitamins, energy, and focus. And if you buy a canister, it ends up being $1.23 per serving. I invite you to try it, and I promise you will love it. The only advice I would give you, is to dissolve it in 16 oz of water and not 8 oz. I like it better like that.

Advocare Results

Advocare Results

Many people are very skeptical about Advocare, and to be honest I don't blame them. I understand that the fact that the company is structured as an MLM and that a lot of people are solely interested in the business opportunity, make people wonder about the actual quality of their products. However, the truth is that even though the business opportunity that Advocare provides is excellent, the products are even better. When I first heard about Advocare, I was very skeptical and I didn't even think about trying any of their products until a friend gave me a sample of the Spark. After trying and researching on it, I decided to buy a pack. I heard that the results of taking Advocare products were going to be great, but I didn't really believe it. So without really thinking about the final results, I started taking Spark just because I loved the kind of energy and focus that it gave me, plus the fact that it was full of vitamins. Then, after seeing the results of Spark, I decided to try some other products. I started to use the Meal replacement Shake, the Nighttime Recovery, and the Catalyst. I felt the results right away. The products gave me energy and focus throughout the day, and I felt stronger during my workouts. Even my mood changed. The good thing about all these, is that it wasn't just that I started to feel great, I also started to look better. In less than 3 months my body drastically changed without feeling burned out, and I lost weight and gained muscle a the same time. The results were so great, that I couldn't help but becoming a member of Advocare. So seriously, believe me when I tell you that Advocare works, and that the results are amazing. I know some of you are thinking that you don't need any products at all to transform your body, and you might be right. However, Advocare not only gives you energy to workout even harder, but it also gives you all the vitamins and amino acids your body needs. It simply takes care of your body and boosts your transformation. So if you can do it without Advocare, imagine what you can do with it. Trust me when I tell you that the Advocare results are awesome. If you don't believe me, try it yourself, send me an email and I will send you a couple of spark samples. I guarantee you that you will love it!

How to get fit and plan a workout program




plan a workout program

The first step you have to take in order to get fit and plan a workout program that will be effective, is to set goals. Setting goals when it comes to fitness is extremely important and for some reason, extremely underestimated as well. Your goals are going to determine the workout program that you need to follow. For instance, if your goal is to get fit in order to perform better in a specific sport, you are going to have a different workout plan than someone who's fitness goal is to lose weight. The same applies for someone who wants to get stronger and someone who wants to get leaner. Now, I am not saying that you cannot get stronger and get leaner at the same time. What I am saying is that in order for a workout plan to be effective, it has to  emphasize on achieving your specific goal. So, before you pick a workout plan, you have to ask yourself what your specific goals are. Do you want to loose weight and gain muscle? Do you want to get stronger and lift more weight than everyone else in your gym? Or do you want to perform better in a specific activity? Ask yourself what your goals are, and i guarantee you that this will help you plan an effective workout where you will see great results.
