Sweet or greasy ?


'Cravings for sweets is not a big problem, but to greasy is, "explains Joe Piscatella. The author of three books on nutrition says: "For many years restrained appetite for sweets, which makes us prefer greasy. Most sweets like chocolate and ice cream contain much less sugar than fat.

The only appetite of the body fats, combined with those in nutrients hidden fatputs many of them in our body. Misconception is that people refuse fat. "They just changed some of the dietary fats with other," says Piscatella. Consumption of meat,butter and whole milk is reduced to a minimum, but people continue to eat ketchup, cheese and croissants. "This means that the fat is still a large part of their food" explains Piscatella.

The solution is not to completely eliminate fat. We need a certain dose of them(even the participants in the "Mr. Olympia" accept 10-20% of calories as fat).Instead, one should not overdo with fat and comply with the limit.

The recommended daily dose of fat is about 30% of total calories. Bodybuilderstake even less. For example, if the daily amount is 2500 calories, you should consume no more than 83 grams in the form of fat, and so to keep within a margin of 30%.


Train after getting up in the morning to improve your sleep

Morning or evening exercise? There is research that shows what works for better quality sleep.

Strength levels are higher when you exercise later during the day, but the quality of sleep may be affected if you exercise then.

Scientists have made a study in which are  men and women  to 30 minutes of jogging trail at 7 am, at 13:00 noon and at 19:00 pm.

When subjects were exercised in the morning, they spent 85% more time in light sleep, 75% more time in deep sleep and increased the frequency of their sleepcycles by 20%.

In other words, the morning workout dramatically increases the quality of your sleepIf you have trouble sleeping, consider moving your workout at the early part 
of the day.

For women: 10 tips for dealing with cellulite

 1. Cleaning the body with a brush
Some experts argue that this is the key to the complete elimination of cellulite.According to them, it helps speed up the lymphatic system in removing toxins from the body.

For best results, moisten your skin and then use a brush. Do this twice a day, but be careful-use 

perfumed products as soon as it can lead to inflammation. Wait atleast half an hour before the uses of these products.

 2. Diet

For many different eating plans claim they can defeat cellulite, but there is nomagic cure-eating only watermelon for three days will not help.
The best anti-cellulite diet is rich in fruits and vegetables. It must have a low fat content (about 25 percent of your daily calories should come from fat, this is about 50 grams per day). The diet should be low in toxins such as caffeine, nicotine andalcohol. Drink at least 2 liters of water a day. Choose protein wisely. Avoid red meatEat chicken or fish. Limit eggs, salt, sugar and spices.

Consume lots of herbs and seeds. Stop smoking, which hinders blood flowWellcooked legumes such as lentils, beans, etc. are good sources of fiber.


 3. Exercise

They not only burn excess fatwhich can cause cellulitis, but also increase the blood flow to the skin surface, which makes the defects less visible. For bestresults you need to do 30-60 minute aerobic exercise 5-6 times a week. The weights also help since they shape the muscles beneath the skin that concealcellulite. Should notice improved after 6-12 weeks.

 4. Massage

Massage should accelerate the blood circulation in the cellulite areas and alsohelp in the breakdown of toxins and fat. Of course, the only approved treatment for cellulite (entomology) uses rollers to rub the skin. Using previously moisturizer, anti-cellulite cream or massage oil, spend 5-10 minutes rubbing each cellulitearea.



 5. Creams

The most important constituents of cellulite creams are those which are called inhibitors of phosphodiesterase. In plain language, they cease to produce the enzyme that contributes to the preservation of body fat and thus leads to cellulite. Many components have this effect, including theophylline, guarana, menthol, ginkgo biloba and the like. Apply the cream two hours after eating or one hour before a meal. Your body will only burn fat when there is nothing in the bloodstream. Do not expect quick results!

 6. Humidifiers

Hydrated skin shows cellulite less than dehydrated, so it's a good idea turn lotion into your daily regime.



 7. Sun protection factor

Cellulite worsens when the levels of collagen and elastin in the body decreases. Regular use of sunscreen factors will delay and reduce this depletion of collagen and elastin, and will also add moisture.

 8. Tan

The darker skin is, the less noticeable is the cellulite, as well as the shadows caused by the curl, will be less apparent.

 9. Salonovi procedures

Cellulite treatment offered in salons, including masks, body, ultrasound and electrotherapy.


 10. Clinical decisions

If you have tried everything and still no cellulite reducing, cosmetic surgery may be the solution. Results will ranging individually and are not constant.
