Why Should You Set Goals?

Wonder why some people could not even achieve an inch of what they dream of becoming? Blame it on pure dreaming and lack of setting goals for achieving their dreams. Setting goals is a very significant part of success and positive accomplishments. It is like scaling a 20 feet building and marking early on what feet you would like to reach at this specific period. People who set goals literally create a map of their target achievements in life, marking where they should begin, where to pause, where to delve a bit, and where and when to stop. Once this map is created, it allows the map drawer to check where he is in the scheme of things and whether or not he is making some achievements that will take him closer to his goals. By setting goals, people will know how they are doing and what they should be doing to achieve their targets or dreams in life. They will know if they can relax or if they have to double their efforts when they are falling short of what is expected of them. G

But there are at least 10 questions most people never know to ask. It's the stuff they didn't know they didn't know... make sense? Today we'll cover 3 of the 10... HIDDEN QUESTION 1: "What's The Best Dietary-Fat To Eat To Get Rid Of Bodyfat?" Sounds nutty, doesn't it? The media loves to deceive you when it comes to dietary fats... and I'm here to set the record straight: You absolutely

An Explanation and Solution For Slow Female Fat Loss

By Tom Venuto www.burnthefat.com You may have heard (or, heh, realized), that it's more difficult for women to lose fat than men. Immediately most people think it must be estrogen or hormonal issues. But perhaps the biggest factor is NOT hormones, but the simple fact that women are usually smaller and lighter than men. When you have a smaller body, you have lower calorie needs. When you have lower calorie needs, your relative deficit (20%, 30% etc) gives you a smaller absolute deficit and therefore you lose fat more slowly than someone who is larger and can create a large deficit more easily. For example, if my TDEE is 3300 calories a day (I’m 5' 8" and moderately to very active), then a 20% deficit is 660 calories, which brings me to 2640 calories a day. On paper, that will give me about 1.3 lbs of wt loss per week, rather painlessly, I might add. If I bumped my calorie burn up or decreased my intake by another 340 a day, that's enough to give me a 2 lbs pe

Positively Fit: Fitness Tips

Lettuce can be stored as fat! Any food or drink, which contains calories, can be stored as body fat if it causes your blood sugar levels to exceed what the body needs at that time. Whole Wheat Bread and pasta are actually great sources of complex carbohydrate! The key is how much you eat and when you eat it. (Of anything) 4. Eating after 6pm will make you fat. False! It all depends on whether or not the body needs the extra calories at that time. Keep in mind your body is constantly burning calories, 24 hours per day, just t
