Aren’t we all trying to get more fit and maybe lose some weight these days? There is so much to think about, this can get really overwhelming. Really, the simplest concept is just to burn more calories than we consume to lose weight. How about if we just try to burn at least one more calorie today than we did yesterday? That is a pretty easy place to start. There are so many different things to consider to help figure that out, I will try to do a series on just that.
My sister-in-law loves her heart rate monitor which monitors things like your heart rate, speed, distance, pace and calories burned so you can train smarter and more efficiently. And it helps you to see whether you are training too hard or not enough. She says it really helps to motivate her and lets her see her progress so she doesn’t get discouraged. That sure makes sense to me. It helps to give that little push to help you get back into shape or lose those couple extra pounds, or just to burn off that turkey, stuffing and pumpkin pie you just ate.
