The ‘best’ diet is something sustainable with NO foods off limits and a move towards intuitive eating.
Food logging is needed to become an intuitive eater so you can connect the dots between what you’re eating, how you’re feeling and the results you’re getting.
I like to work with what a client is currently eating and make small tweaks. It’s all about education.
Resistance training is probably the single most important exercise to guard against osteoporosis and sarcopenia (age related muscle loss). It helps to increase lean muscle tone and muscle helps fuel your metabolic fire to increase your calorie burning ability.
Muscle gives your body shape, it takes up less space in your clothes and mostly, it keeps you functional so you can continue to do all the activities you love.
If you can’t get to a gym, bodyweight training is sufficient to maintain and even build lean muscle.
Even if you don’t have time to dedicate to a full workout, you could do ‘micro-workouts’ through out your day and increase your functional fitness level. For example, you could lunge walk down the hallway, do air squats every time you go to the fridge, do push ups every time you pass the coffee table, etc.
Whatever you do, DON’T GIVE UP.
No matter what your age or circumstance, you can improve your health.
