Why are people fat? Why are some people thin? There are a lot of information here to make us knowledgeable on Nutrition and how to stay health and lean. But how about observing the people around you?
It was funny because I started to look around me whenever I dine in restaurants or fast food chains. Much to my surprise I could see the difference in what people ordered and the kind of physical attributes they possess.
My friend and I recently discussed weight loss and the reason why I have been getting heavier despite keeping my carbohydrate and fat intake low.
He told me that not getting enough sleep everyday keeps our metabolism rate slower. Aside from that he mentioned that the body was adjusting because of our survival’s instincts. He said the body stores more fat to keep us safe because of lack of sleep and tiredness.
That said, I believe that the more sleep we have the more energy we have for the day. So instead of sitting on our desk feeling tired and weak we are able to move faster and thus burn more calories.

We have already discussed the importance of eating if we want to build and grow our muscles. The question we would like to think about is when is the best time to eat?
The best time to eat is during times when our body would optimally be able to absorb these nutrients. This is usually during, immediately and long after workout activities.
We are going to examine each of the times food is optimally absorbed by the body.
Food consumption outside these hours is not a good advice since the body would not able to absorb nutrients effectively and as such will store them as fat.
This is defined as the intake of food and other nourishing material by the body. After our food intake; it is broken down into nutrients. These nutrients travel through the bloodstream to different parts of the body where they are used as “fuel” and for many other purposes. This fuel is the medium that will keep us from accomplishing our daily workout schedule.
Here we are going to answer a lot of questions about nutrition and how essential it shall be to have a strong and well defined physique.

Yesterday when my sister and I was about to leave the mall; the car would not start for some reason. After trying and figuring out what to do we decided to park it in a safe place 600 meters away from where we were.
What we did was my sister drove the wheel while I pushed the car. It was heavy given the angle and the humps along the way.
As I was pushing the car I realized how handy my gym workouts have been. My maximum 225lb bench press was used.
Its good to be fit and it sure comes handy during emergency situations.
