- Light eating
- Excercise
- Dieting
- Drugs
- Fasting (for those that are led by the spirit)
- Liposuction/Surgical procedures
All of these processes are of contestable plus and minus impact on the wholesomeness of the individuals health depending on what works for each individual.
Having been in my current place of work for past 4 months, one activity that may not be the final solution to all the issues but which I beleive works is corporate activity after lunch and dinner....It does help the digestion process to burn off a tangible quantity of calories before the freshly consumed portion settles in.
Its a simple kind of give and take. A thousand brisk steps will help burn off approximately 500 kilocal while a regular portion lunch or dinner will give you approximately 1000 Kilocal.
A team of 4 or 5 colleaques set out from the canteen after lunch, walk briskly around the premises for approximately 20 minutes; gisting as much as the heart beat allow you to. Such time even gives one space to socialize and catch up on friends and colleaques from other buildings around the complex (for companies with multiple buildings but joint canteens.)
At the end you gain the following:
1. Good health - Weight management
2. Sharp mind/pace as replacement for slow start after lunch.
3. Stronger Bond & friendship in the work place.
4. Zero cost of gym expenses and better time management to burn the fats.
5. Good Culture could be taken out of office & re-applied in personal lives.
This is what I have learnt in this new place and it will always stay with me!
Voila...
Some steps to guide your brisk walk programme:
To maximize the benefits of any aerobic exercise, you must sustain an activity for at least 20 to 60 minutes at each session. If you are out of shape, start with a 10–minute workout and gradually add 2 minutes a week until you reach your goal.
Before you begin your walk, take a few moments to warm up by stretching your major muscle groups. Then, if you would like to transform a leisurely stroll into a bona fide workout, follow these guidelines used by the famous marathon walker Ruth Artz:
Take long strides using your gluteal muscles (the muscles in the buttocks) to propel you forward.
Bend your arms slightly, swinging them as you walk.
Stand up straight with your abdominal muscles tucked in.
Maintain a pace at which you are breathing deeply but can still carry on a conversation, although you would prefer not to.
If your breathing becomes labored and conversation difficult, you are working out too hard. Anytime you feel out of breath or have any pain, slow down or take a break. If these problems persist, consult your doctor.
