Tips to stay fit

WITH SO much conflicting information about diet
and fitness circulating, it’s hard to know what’s right
and what's wrong. One thing we do know, however,
is that it is important to keep fi: at any age, and
especially as we grow older.

It’s important not to let yourself get too confused
by conflicting information. It’s generally accepted
that the key to good health is tc eat a variety of
foods, while cutting back on your intake of fats of
all kind and of salt, and eating more fruits,
vegetables and whole grains such as brown rice and
whole wheat bread.

Of course, if you have a medical condition such as
high blood pressure or high cholesterol, it’s impor-
tant to follow your doctor’s orders, which may in-
volve sticking to a restricted diet.

It’s also easy to be confused about exercise. There
are many myths circulating, spread by well-inten-
tioned but misinformed people.

Myth #1: No pain, no gain. Many of us are still
working out to the point of real discomfort, believing
that if some exercise is good, more is better. Actual-
ly, this is how injury may occur. Research and case
studies continue to support a moderate approach to
exercise for health and performance benefits.

This means regular, well-balanced workouts that
leave you feeling invigorated, not aching. When you
exercise, you should feel like you ate exercising —

your heart and breathing rates should increase during
aerobics, ycur muscles should feel the effort during
Streneth and endurance work, and you should stretch
to the voint of tension, not pain. If your body hurts
during or after, adjust your workout.

Myth #2: Exercise turns fat into muscle. Those ex-
tra inches of fat on your waist or thighs cannot be
converted to muscle. Fat is fat, and muscle is muscle,
and they are two different substances.

When you combine the right amount of aerobic
work and muscle conditioning exercises with proper
eating, you lose fat and build muscle.

Although muscle weighs more than fat, with the
right combination of diet and exercise you should be
able to reach your optimal weight and have a good
ratio of fat to lean muscle.

Myth #3: Playing sports keeps me in shape. It de-
pends. If you play an occasional (once a week) game
of golf, you will not be getting enough of a workout
to improve your strength, flexibility and endurance.

Of course, if you walk the course briskly you will
be burning extra calories. But the stop and start
nature of the game prevents it from being a true
aerobic workout.

Many recreational sports are important for relaxa-
tion, socialization and as supplements to a fitness
