Getting and staying healthy is easy...

It seems that I keep coming up against this good, honest and basic advice for staying healthy time and time again -even when I'm not looking for it, and today while flicking through the Sydney Morning Herald online, I came across yet another article that lets us all know how simple it is to keep our bodies in better shape for longer. For general health benefits, it's as easy as 30 minutes of walking 5 days a week and 2-3 x 20-30 minute resistance training sessions.

You don't have to blast your body for hours on end, day in day out to reap some great general health benefits. The most important thing is that you do something everyday. Start with Walking - it's easy; it gets you outside and for those sweat-phobics out there, there doesn't need to be any involved. If you can't do 30 mins in one stretch for what ever reason - get your body moving for at least 10 mins at a time, three times a day. It's as simple as a 10 min walk to the bus stop in the morning and then again in the evening after work, and a walk down the road at lunch time.
For resistance training all you need is your own body and some basic 'big muscle group' exercises. - Start with taking a look at this video ..and trying the suggestions.

Here's to a healthier you in 20-30 minutes a day..let me know how it goes....Cheers
