If you live an active lifestyle or want to start,

important aspects of this kind of life. Here are
four secrets to help you make the most of this
lifestyle.

• Short Bursts of Activity are Okay
• To maintain an active lifestyle, you must work at
  it every day. Sometimes life gets in the way to
  prevent you from going to the gym or attending
  that exercise class. Dont let it get you down or
  stress you out. Just 30 minutes of activity every
  day is enough to help you see results. If you
  dont have 30 minutes to spare at one time on
  some days, break it up. Even 10 minutes done
  three times a day will help you feel good.  
• Take 10 minutes first thing in the morning, at
  lunch, and then at the end of the day to get
  involved in some type of exercise, even just
  brisk walking. Youll feel better and keep going
  until you can find time to do more.

Maintain healthy portions for all of your meals
to prevent weight gain or that sluggish feeling.
Instead of eating just two or three meals,
schedule 5-8 mini meals throughout the day.
Youll never feel hungry and will continue to
give your body the nutrients it needs to perform
tasks.   When you eat more often, you continue
to fuel your body to maintain energy levels. Your
metabolism doesnt slow down, which means you
feel better and continue to burn calories.  
2. Small, Portion-Controlled Meals are the Key
Make sure you choose nutritious foods that
contain a lot of vitamins and minerals for your
meals. A well-balanced diet includes foods from
all of the major food groups. A person who is
active needs more of certain nutrients than one
who is sedentary.    For example, you need more
protein if you lift weights. Runners often need
to consume more healthy carbs to give them the
fuel they need.

Keep your body alert by mixing up your
activities. Instead of walking or running every
day, try a new exercise class such as spinning or
yoga. Youll work your body in new ways and keep
it functioning at its best. Mixing up your
routine and adding new activities benefits your
mind as well as your body. Its easy to get into
your comfort zone and stay there, but its more
fun to try something new. Even just changing the
time you work out can have positive benefits. It
keeps your mind alert as well as your
body.   Maintaining an active lifestyle doesnt
have to be difficult or boring with these four
secrets. Try them and youll quickly discover how
easy it can be to make good decisions about your
health and fitness. Whether you are ready for a
change or just getting started with your new
lifestyle, implement these secrets and see how
they can help you with your goals.
