Health is a value that we often remember when we lose. Many people are disrespectful to their health, do not cherish it, independently, day after day, harm it. Cars, the Internet, fast food, tedious office work — the modern realities of the lives of millions of people.
You can write for a long time about what today’s harmful and incorrect living conditions, complain about the circumstances, and you can just get used to some useful tips, thereby strengthening your health and improving your quality of life.
- Lie down early and get up early in the morning
A healthy sleep is one of the most important elements of Health. However, not only the duration of sleep is important, but also the time when you need to sleep. Many studies say that you need to sleep 8 hours a day. Remember how long you slept so much? Assuming that a person gets up to work at 7 am, he should fall asleep at 23.00. But, as for the value of sleep, there is a theory that the most favorable time for sleep is from 19.00 to 20.00. During this period, the body recovers most quickly. Every hour the value of sleep gradually decreases. But, note-This is only a theory. If you want, check it out.
- Make charging
Frankly, I do not know how many people are doing the load in our time, but when communicating with people of different ages, I understand that today the load has become old-fashioned. But if you take a book on health, physical education, you can certainly find in it a chapter and the benefits of morning charging. We also wrote about the importance and benefits of charging in one of our articles.
Be sure to exercise in the morning, immediately after sleep. Let it first be short, at least a few minutes, but believe me, you will feel great.
- Drink water
Drink water, the more-the better. Be sure to drink water on an empty stomach, before breakfast. Drink water before each meal. But do not drink after eating — it can negatively affect your well-being and condition. There are different tables and norms of water consumption per day, in general, if you get used to drinking 1.5-2 liters of water per day, you will soon feel qualitative changes. How much and how to drink water correctly, read our article in the topic «Nutrition».
- Walk every day
Movement is life. This postulate has been known since everyone’s childhood. But the best move is on its two. You work hard? Tired at work? No time to walk? No problem. Make small adjustments to your working route. If you take public transport, you can take a bus or other transport not to the nearest stop, but to the next stop. Or get out a stop earlier. Are you driving a car? Try not to park directly under the office door. Take a walk during your lunch break. Similarly, try to go home. Ideal for evening walks after dinner. This will have a beneficial effect on digestion, and at night you will sleep harder.
- Abandon the elevator and escalator
10 habits that will strengthen your health.
The elevator is a unique invention of mankind, but let’s leave it to moms with strollers and grandmothers who sit at the entrance. Giving up the elevator is a small thing, but if you get used to it, the number of calories spent per week will be an order of magnitude higher. Same thing with the escalator. Of course, it’s quite difficult to climb a broken escalator, but at least get off.
- Doing physical education at work
Make it a habit to take 3-4 breaks at work. Five-minute breaks with simple exercises will have a beneficial effect on your further performance. In addition, you will recover a little strength and improve your emotional state. If you are a big boss, do collective exercises for the team. It will be both useful and fun.
- Make the right snacks
Often a modern person does not have enough time for a full lunch and meals throughout the day. Constant meetings, a lot of work, the absence of a normal cafe near work — this is not a complete list of reasons why people Pound their stomach with bad food, fast food, shawarma, pies, chebureks of dubious quality and production. Even if you can not eat normally, eat an apple, banana or a little nuts — it’s both useful and safe for health.
- Monitor the number of calories consumed
No one forces you to keep a food diary. For many, it is uninteresting and tedious. But after all, one of the most common reasons why people gain extra pounds is a greater consumption of calories than their consumption. For example, 7,000 kcal is equivalent to 1 kg of weight. Thus, if a person spends 2500 kcal per day and consumes 3,000, he will gain 0.5 extra pounds per week. Here is a month + 2 kg by weight. Try, at least approximately, to count how many calories you spend, and how much you eat and you will see that the result will not take long.

- Well and well have breakfast
There is a wise saying — » Eat Breakfast yourself, share lunch with a friend, give dinner to the enemy.» I do not know about dinner, but with breakfast to the point. Any nutritionist will tell you that breakfast is the most important meal. After all, a person reserves energy for the whole day. In this case, not only the quantity, but also the quality of food is very important.
What really happens in many? In the morning we get up later, we quickly go to work, on the way to the bathroom, something was «thrown» into the mouth, drank a cup of coffee and at work. Think about your health, have breakfast necessarily.
- Start running
Not so long ago we interviewed experienced coach Vladimir danilenko. After asking to name his 5 most effective exercises from which you can not refuse, on a number of others heard about running. There is nothing surprising in this, everyone writes about the importance of running. By the way, an important factor in the quality of running is the question of choosing sneakers for running.
No time to run? Honestly, I doubt it. For 99 % of able-bodied and healthy people, the main reason is banal laziness. Friends, do not be lazy. Laziness is your main enemy and a terrible evil. We will not motivate anyone, no one but you will be able to get up from the couch. Everything is in your hands. Take care of health when you have it.
As you see — these tips are absolutely not difficult, but even if you try to stick to them at least, you will see how your life changes qualitatively.
There is an opinion that if you do something for 21 days it will become a habit and you will do it constantly. I do not know, I have not yet tested this theory, but it seems rather optimistic.
