Fitness Tip # 13

Snack Time! Although "having a snack" is something that most of us equate with our early years of school, it turns out that after all this time, having a snack was and still is a GREAT idea.

Our bodies operate on a very basic principle of Energy In vs. Energy Out. If we don't practice the "Energy In" part of the equation every 2 to 3 hours, our bodies will slow down, caloric expenditure will come to a standstill, and as soon as we eat the next meal, our bodies will store the calories as bodyfat instead of using them for energy.

Think of your body like a steam engine on an old train. If just enough coal was put into the fire at regular intervals, the train would run fast, hard, and clean. If not enough coal was added, the train would stop completely. If TOO much coal was added, the fire would just go out altogether. Feed YOUR steam engine with small, nutritious meals every 2 to 3 hours every single day.
