Exercise for the Elderly

I need help getting in shape for my wedding in May?

Hi. I am 21, 5’4 and 152 pounds. I want to get into shape (atleast 140) and look great for my wedding on May 1st. I have a schwinn airdynne exercise bike which you move your arms and pedal. There is a hiking trail in my area that is four miles i can walk three days a week with my fiancee (as he has to drive me to because i dont have a car). I also have a pilates video, 10 pound hand weights, and stretch cords. How often should i exercise and for how long and what should i do? What should i eat? I have brocoli, cauliflower, bananna, apple, orange, lowfat yogurt, special k granola, almonds for snacks, and eggs for breakfast. I drink only water, some milk and orange juice occasionally. I will be going on adhd medicine tomorrow as well so will that cause me to gain weight? Thankyou.

Doing exercises to get fit is a very good thing, but if you want to maximize your benefits of doing exercises, you need to eat a truly healthy diet that maximizes your metabolism, brings your hormonal balance back to normal, reduces craving, and strips of body fat faster than you’d believe is possible.

Here is a list of some Super Foods “Healthy Fat Burner Foods “.
1- Raw milk, full-fat raw milk certainly does not make you any fatter. Many people who “think” they are lactose intolerant actually can drink raw milk without a problem? This is because the live enzymes and friendly bacteria in raw milk aid in the digestion of the lactose and the proteins in milk. These enzymes and friendly bacteria are destroyed in pasteurized milk, which makes it more difficult to digest for many people. And don’t forget the high levels of fat-burning, muscle building CLA in full-fat, raw, grass fed milk (and omega-3).

2- Eggs, eggs are basically meat. Eggs are practically a perfect food in term of nutrition density.

3- Extra virgin olive oil, for lower temperature cooking or used as a healthy salad dressing oil.

4- Virgin coconut oil, great for temperatures of cooking due to it’s high stability under heat. A great source of healthy saturated fats.

5- Fermented Foods, Fermentation allows the bacteria, yeasts and mold to predigest and therefore break down the carbohydrates, fats, and proteins to create probiotics which offer friendly bacteria into the digestive tract. This helps keep our immune system strong and supports overall digestive health. Fermented foods include: Acidophiles milk, blue cheese, chocolate, cider, coffee, cultured vegetables, kefir, olives, pickles, soy sauce, tea, vinegar, and yogurt.

6- Grass fed meats and wild caught salmon, have more beta-carotene, vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acids than beef produced using conventional cattle-feeding strategies.

7- Grass fed raw dairy cheeses and butter, they are a complete and properly balanced food. Raw dairy contains a wealth of healthy substances including: amino acids, enzymes, vitamins, minerals, and healthy fats such as CLA.

8- Avocados. Avocados contain oleic acid, a monounsaturated fat that help to lower cholesterol.

9- Almonds, walnuts, pecans, and other nuts. Almonds and walnuts sit at the top of heap of nutrition. Nuts are high in monounsaturated fats. In addition to their cholesterol-lowering effects, nuts’ reduce heart disease risk due to the anti oxidation action of vitamin E.

10- Sprouts. Sprouts are one of the most complete and nutritionally beneficial of all foods. Sprouts preserve our body’s enzymes, which is extremely important. Almost any vegetable or grain can be consumed from sprouts.

11- Tomatoes. Tomatoes are a rich source of several nutrients. They are well known for their high vitamin C content, but also contain significant amount of vitamin A, b vitamins including niacin and riboflavin, magnesium, phosphorous, and calcium. Tomatoes also a good source of chromium, folate, and fiber.

12- Garlic, onions, leeks, and shallots. Garlic and onions is a couple of the best source of uniquely powerful antioxidants.

Note: eating 5-6 small meals per day is much better strategy for getting lean compared to traditional “3 squares”.
