Ready To Lose Some Fat?


Here is some great information from the Beast himself Sagi Kalev on the importance of sleep and the effect it has on fat. I have learned so much from being a beachbody coach the wealth of information the trainers provide for us is amazing. The best part is we are allowed to use and share this information. As your coach I'll do my best to make as much of it available as possible that's why it's so important to use the links I provide instead of just signing up randomly. Thanks and I hope you enjoy the article! https://www.teambeachbody.com/signup/-/signup/free?referringRepId=182856

Ready to lose some fat?
And why is your fat is NOT SO your Fault!!! Yes...not your FAULT.
Get ready....write notes and after long time of getting ready my promise has arrived.
Here is my last words to remember ...
Life will NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN.... WHY?
BC the BEAST SAY'S READY TO LOSE UNWANTED POUNDS AND FEEL GREAT AGAIN?
Fatigue, brain fog, memory slipping, muffin top, irritable, losing passion? It seems like the wheels are coming off and it’s happening overnight.
This is an all too common topic of conversation I have with my new female patients every day.
Women notice an accelerated downward spiral in their health and balance and it usually occurs as they approach 40.
Despite your best efforts to exercise and eat a healthy balanced diet, you notice that your clothes fit tighter and just thinking about treating yourself to that special dessert puts on a few pounds.
A full nights sleep without waking up is just a distant memory.
Career and financial pursuits, family responsibilities and just daily life stressors start to take their toll.
Why do you feel so out of balance and just plain crappy?
There are many forces at work in life that are responsible for borrowing against your health, until one day they become overwhelming obvious and you need help, and FAST.
When your life is even slightly out of balance you set up the possibility of slowly borrowing against your health, even in small amounts, causing subtle hormone imbalances, disrupt thyroid function, adrenal health and cortisol levels (stress), energy robbing low grade inflammation, gut dysfunction (dysbiosis). In addition, toxins, pesticides, and xeno-estrogens (hormone like substances) in the environment can disrupt your metabolism, sugar control, energy production and sex hormone balance.
The truth is your every day lifestyle choices about how you eat, amount of exercise you do, how much restful sleep you get, and your ability to manage stress accumulate over months and years and the consequences become apparent overnight. There is a strong relationship between stress and belly fat caused by increased production of cortisol and blood sugar levels. In fact, just eating sugar can increase cortisol levels. So that morning coffee and donut cause a double whammy that increases cortisol and sugar adding to belly fat.
The inflammation caused by increased blood sugar and insulin in addition to high cortisol levels create havoc on your natural hormone balance including estrogen, testosterone, and thyroid hormone.
Functional lifestyle medicine works by identifying the imbalances in your life and the triggers and underlying imbalances in your body. Once the triggers and imbalances are found, a functional medical therapy can be prescribed to naturally restore your balance by treating the underlying cause and not the symptoms.
Here are some lifestyle changes you can make to help rebalance, lose weight, improve energy and start feeling great again.
1. Eat a low inflammatory Mediterranean diet high in fresh vegetables, some fruit, clean organic protein, low in sugar and processed foods.
2. Address the underlying causes of stress and focus on active relaxation through meditation, breathing techniques, and yoga.
3. Exercise is medicine. Use it to reduce stress, improve your blood sugar and insulin levels, and improve your brain health and mood.
4. Focus on healthy restorative sleep. Deep sleep improves mood and memory by rebalancing hormones and brain neurotransmitters such as serotonin.
LIVE FIT AND BEASTIE
