When we try to lead a healthy life, it is key to lean on two great pillars. The first is feeding, changing our habits and leaving aside the consumption of unhealthy products is only the first step.
Buying more fresh food and going into the kitchen to enjoy the whole process can be as follows. The more involved we are in achieving our new habits, the more we will enjoy the process.
The other pillar that we must take into account is physical exercise. An active life is essential to get the most out of our body. It will help us to make everything work better, like our cardiovascular or immune systems.
But It is also key when defining our figure, With sport we help our body consume more energy and therefore lose (and as long as we consume less energy than we spend daily) fat, we will also achieve greater muscle mass if we train strength or do other sports with our body.

If you have never exercised before, surely you have many doubts and many desire start as soon as possible to start seeing the results. The first thing you have to take into account is that as important as training is rest.
There are times when we want to see the results immediately and we push our bodies to the limit, without respecting relaxing days. They are necessary to be able to recover successfully and avoid injuries, so do not skip them.
It is also important to vary the type of exercise we are doing. If we always do the same, your body will get used to it and it will stop being effective. So the best thing is to change the routines and intensity of the exercise we are doing.
For example, doing moderate aerobic exercise may be enough to keep you fit, but to lose weight, it is best to also include strength and flexibility training a few times a week.
If you are a beginner, you can start exercising three times a week, something that you can increase as time goes by until you train at least 5 days, what is recommended to lose weight.

Of course, remember what we have told you about rest and reserve at least one day a week to recover.
The healthy thing is to do some 30 minutes of moderate exercise a day, five days a week. But if you are looking to lose weight, you will have to spend more time with it, 40 minutes to 1 hour, you may even need more time. The more you exercise, the more calories you will burn, but just like when we talk about diets, in this case do not stay alone in what you read on the internet, go to a specialist, a good coach and let yourself be advised and guided in this process. That is the key to success.
