Beach Body Tips!

So, summer is right around the corner and you think it's too late to get your beach body ready? Wrong! Even if you aren't heading to the beach this summer, you can still get a beach body. Here are some simple tips to get you on the right track.
  1. Walking is the best thing that anyone can do. If you can put in 30 minutes a day then you are going to shed those unwanted pounds like no tomorrow. 
  2. Drink plenty of water and kick the soda, tea, and other junk juice to the curb. When you get hungry, have a glass of water first to see if you really are hungry. 
  3. Make sure you take a good multivitamin and even mix in some resistance training when possible. 

Remember, to get toned you need to do low weights, high reps. What this basically means is that you need to use a weight that you can do many many times. Don't put something on the bar that you can only do once or twice, aim for 3 sets of 10. One last tip is to not sleep the summer away. Getting up early on your day off will help you get motivated to be active and not sleep your summer away. Use the helpful tips and incorporate them into your workout for optimal results and you'll start noticing your new body in just a few weeks!
Members Mark Multivitamin Gummies - 300 ct. This is one of my personal favorite vitamins. It's in a chewy form, almost like a candy consistency. It doesn't taste like a regular bland vitamin and it gets the job done!

What is a Yeast Infection?

A yeast infection could very well be one of the most annoying, yet common health issues for a woman. As strange as it is to grasp, every women naturally has small numbers of yeast cells in their vagina. By standard definition a yeast infection is when a women develops high numbers of these cells in their vagina. Since yeast is a fungus, too much of it throws the body off balance.

A yeast infection can be quite uncomfortable, to say the least. If you have a yeast infection, you may experience discomfort such as itching or soreness, especially when having sex or attempting to urinate. I say attempting because sometimes, when higher amounts of yeast are present, the simple act of urination can seem like a triathlon! You may also notice that your body is producing a white, clumpy discharge that may or may not have a slight odor to it. This is normal when it comes to a yeast infection. Even if you do not experience discomfort, you should consult your doctor if you notice this type of discharge.

According to WebMD and most medical professionals, yeast infections can be prevented by keeping your genital area as dry as possible. Here are some tips that WebMD suggests to avoid the common yeast infection.
  • Wear cotton, not nylon, underwear, and avoid tight-fitting pants and panty hose.
  • Change out of a wet swimsuit right away.
  • Avoid douches and feminine sprays, scented toilet paper, and deodorant tampons.
And remember, when it comes to your health, never depend on recommendations or the Internet. Consult your physician about your concerns!

How to Quit Smoking

Of course every smoker, at some point or another, wants to learn how to quit smoking. Although it is much easier said then done, it may not be as hard as you think to learn how to quit smoking. The first thing you should know going in, is that no one will be able to stop smoking unless they truly want to quit. Cigarettes have a mental hold on a smoker just as much as a chemical one.

Many statistics have shown that the key to how to quit smoking is learning the art of dissociation. Many smokers smoke cigarettes as part of their routine. Some may religiously smoke a cigarette in the morning while they drink their coffee or read the morning paper. Some may sit in the same chair at night while they smoke that last cigarette before bedtime. The hardest part about learning how to quit smoking is being conscious of the act while continuing these same daily routines. Should you stop reading your morning paper just because you do not want to smoke a cigarette? No. You should maybe change the area where you read your morning paper. Think of it as a mind trick. If you switch positions, your mind will not associate things with smoking cigarettes.

Smoking while in the car is a huge habit for many smokers. We've all seen the commercial which depicts that smokers need to smoke while driving but do not need to drive while smoking. As funny as the commercial is, it is quite true. The same concept applies. Many people have their vehicle detailed and cleaned which enables them to want to keep it so by not continuing to smoke in it.

At the end of the day, there are plenty of ways to learn how to quit smoking. Although none of them will work without the willpower to quit. I've heard some pretty strange ways people have successfully stopped. But like anything else in life, what works well for one individual may not work well for others. A great place to start a smoke-free life is to first find your smoking pattern and work from there.
