Know More About Paleo Nutrition And Exercises
Paleo nutrition and exercise should complement each other at all times so that the body can be meeting the daily physical and mental challenges. Developing a daily Paleo diet and exercise plan is essential for weight loss and improved health.
Paleo nutrition means that one eats reduced amounts of refined foods and eats foods that build muscle such as raw fruits and vegetables, lean protein, whole grains and healthy fats from fish, seeds, and nuts. The benefits of a Paleo diet are for healthy bones and muscle, promotes weight loss, improves the immune system and cardiovascular function, and helps reduce cholesterol in the body. The nutrients should contribute to reducing the chances of getting chronic diseases because they have a high content of antioxidants, vitamins, and fiber and have low sodium and carbohydrate levels. The best carbs are those found in fruits and vegetables. Pre workout meals should focus more protein and fat while for the post workout nutrition on proteins and carbs.
Paleo exercise is based on the fact that one should do exercises that have the same movement as the first ancestors while gaining all the physical rewards and avoiding the adverse effects. One needs to know what works for their body and best fits their goals and abilities. The exercises focus much on natural movement and brief but intense strength training rather than focusing on machine based exercises. Examples of such exercises include squats, running, pushing, pulling, bench press, deadlifts, lunges, and dips where you can use a chair, stairs, and your own body weight. The intense exercises should be done at least once or twice a week, and this is by use of equipment such as kettle bells, dumbbells and pull up bar. Exercise recovery and rest are necessary for Paleo exercise so that one remains energized and strong rather than always exhausted and sore.
