Mark's Daily Apple Wednesday, January 18, 2023 6:34 PM Despite being rational humans, we don't always act in our own best interest. We know we should eat certain foods to look good, feel good, and get healthier, but often succumb to junk food that tastes good in the moment but makes us feel worse in the long term. We know getting to bed before 10 pm makes us perform better the next day, but it's fun to stay up late. This is the human experience: the push and pull between our rational higher minds and what feels good in the moment. This is most evident in our relationship to working out. Working out is hard. It's work. We are applying intense stress to our bodies and getting uncomfortable enough that the body's only response is to get stronger, faster, and to adapt to the stress. That's what makes it work, but it's also what makes it hard to do: it's not "fun" in the purest sense of the word. There's pain, sweat, and grueling effort. Hardest of all, we have to want to work out . Most of us can't get fit through daily living. We work in offices, sit at desks, drive in cars. We aren't hunting, gathering, exploring, climbing as part of our daily lives anymore. It's a choice we must make. Today, I'm going to list a number of tools (low- and high-tech) and techniques to help making the right choice easier. Whether we like it or not, we don't always do what we know we should—myself included—so this post is for all of us. Here are eleven tools and tips that will give you that little nudge you need to stay on track and do what's best for yourself. Set a Goal A lot of people fail because they never even set a goal. Now, a goal can be almost anything. You can aim for a certain amount of weight to lose or inches to shave off your waist. You can try to hit a specific weight on the squat rack or a time on the mile run. Your goal can be more broad, like "run a marathon." It can be hyper-specific, like "run a marathon in under three hours." It can be flexible, like "hike 50 miles a month" rather than "12 miles a week." Your goal can even be "do something fun and active every day" or "play more often." But the point is that you should probably have a goal of some sort in order to achieve a goal. Heart Rate Monitor I'm not a big fitness tracking guy, but I recognize their utility for certain people. A heart rate monitor is probably the best overall option for people because it allows you to track your heart rate and heart rate variability. Why are these important? Knowing your heart rate throughout a workout helps you adjust intensity to hit your goals. If you're trying to build up cardiovascular and aerobic capacity, you'll want to perform low level aerobic activity while keeping your heart rate under … Continue reading "11 Tools That Can Help You Achieve Your Health and Fitness Goals" The post 11 Tools That Can Help You Achieve Your Health and Fitness Goals appeared first on Mark's Daily Apple. |
