Beginners Workout Guide
1.Start slowly. Begin with 10 or 15 minutes of exercise 3 or 4 days a week. Add 5 minutes to your workout each week until you are doing 30-45 minutes of exercise at least 5 days a week, the recommended minimum to reduce the risk for cancer.
2.Begin with something low impact; like walking, Yoga, biking or swimming. This reduces your risk for injuries not only when you workout, but also helps you prevent injuries in your daily life.
3.Don't overdo it. You are less likely to continue to exercise consistently and more likely to hurt yourself.

Workout Even When You Don't Have Time
When you don't have time to exercise, do several, short sprints for a couple of minutes. Intense bursts of energy help your body to burn fat, lose weight and prevent you from losing muscle. (When working out for long periods of time, it's also highly recommended to increase the intensity for short periods of time throughout your exercise routine. This allows your body to continue burning calories long after your workout is over.)
Go Outside For More Effective Exercise
Take advantage of the warm weather to do your cardio exercise outside. This prevents your body from adjusting to routines, allowing you to have a more effective workout, build more muscles and lose weight faster.

It is important to eat a varied and natural diet for good health. Choose foods rich in vitamins, like fruits, vegetables, nuts and whole grains for maximum nutrition.
How Much Water Do You Need In A Day?
Experts recommend drinking half your body weight in ounces of water to keep your body healthy. If you weigh 150 pounds, you need to drink 75 ounces of water. When you workout, you need to drink a minimum of 20 additional ounces of water, so that would increase the water to 95 ounces for the 150 pound person. If the weather is hot, you live at high altitudes, or you are sick, you need to increase your water intake even more for optimal health.
Live Long With Fresh Juices
Drink fresh fruit and vegetable juices regularly. Fresh juices help to strengthen vital organs and the immune system. They provide our bodies with vitamins and nutrition needed for good health, helping you to avoid health problems. A juicer can help you make healthful fruit and vegetable juices.
