Health: Body Builders

WHO (World Health Organization) defines health as a state of complete mental, physical, and social well-being; not only the absence of infirmity or disease.
It is well said and well proven that there is always a healthy mind in a healthy body. Better health is directly related to a person’s well being — mentally and socially too. By maintaining good health, you’ll not only feel better about yourself, but you‘ll also live well too.
Following a healthy diet is crucial to a better health because a good diet helps to prevent critical diseases such as obesity, heart attacks, and strokes. A good diet will also be helpful to treat diabetes, high blood pressure, and celiac disease. And if you need to prevent vitamin deficiency and loss of muscle strength, you have to eat a well-balanced diet and exercise regularly.
Heart attacks and obesity are two major health problems for people living in today’s high stress working environment. Unfortunately, most of the working people eat high calorie food that their body usually does not burn. As a result of their high calorie intake, these people tend to have less physical exercise, which finally results into obesity. Obesity can then lead to other diseases like diabetes, heart diseases, high blood pressure just to name a few.
To prevent obesity and maintain a healthy weight you need to eat low calorie food. Fruits and vegetables are great energy food, which you can eat in a large amount without thinking of calories. Vegetables and fruits contains large amount of carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, proteins and fats necessary for healthy bones, organs, muscles and nerves. Vitamins and minerals found in green leaves and juicy fruits are essential for normal body metabolism.
Clearly, eating a well-balanced diet which includes fruits and vegetables are an important part of a good diet. Everyone can benefit from eating more of them, and eating a variety of them is as important as the quantity you consumed. Most importantly, it’s critical to also include regular exercise into your well-balanced diet if you want to maintain a health body.
Question about health bodyWhy is eating an all meat diet bad for your health and body?
I have this coworker who is a passionate 21 yr old, who is convinced that eating an all meat diet is the best for your body and health. It is absolutely crazy, so if lots of people would respond with legitimate scientific/health reasons why not, that would be awesome!!!

I love watching this one….. my favorite quote is
your results in your physical world are an exact mirror of you energy, intention, and attention
Love James Ray!!!
I think that’s what she’s saying, yes! I’m guessing it has to do with the mindset of clarity when it comes to health. A cluttered house equals a cluttered inner health.
Hi, there!
It is an interesting question. The answer is: it depends. I know of no serious study that has been done.
Actually, there is no such thing as being "muscle-bound." Even many steroid-using, champion bodybuilders are very flexible.
However, anyone who quits strength training and continues to eat as they did when they were training will cause their body composition to deteriorate. In other words, their lean muscle mass will decrease and their amount of fat will increase.
Many older body-builders keep training, and eating well, even after they retire from competition. This includes such champions as Steve Reeves, John Grimek, Bill Pearl, and Chris Dickerson, who all continued to look okay in their 60's and 70's.
Some strength athletes suffer injuries (especially to their joints if they were competitive lifters) that cause them to alter, reduce, or even eliminate strength training.
Steroid users often quickly shirk noticeably once they go off the juice. However, these men and women were not primarily interested in health and vitality in the first place.
If we live long enough, all of us eventually suffer from a kind of creeping muscular dystrophy. The term "sarcopenia" refers to such conditions as cardiovascular disease, type II diabetes, hypertension, and osteoporosis.
A healthy diet and exercise, both cardio and strength training, work to increase one's vitality and health span. They not only retard the onset of sarcopenia, but also they can sometimes reverse it.
It's very important to think long-term. In terms of health, there is never any reason to adopt any diet or exercise program that is not sustainable well into one's 80's and beyond.
I hope this helps to answer your question.
At the bottom of this reply, I’ve added a link to a free Internet resource in case you want to learn more about strength training.
All my best wishes.
Hi James I just picked up the book Harmonic Wealth. I laughed when I opened it and read whatever page I landed on… Page154 on relationships LOL I took that as a sign from your Verdic Astrologer, I need work in that dept. Thanks loving the book so far

There is no way to use steroids without serious health risks period.
If anyone tells you otherwise, they're either lying to sell you something, or they don't know jack about steroids.
The body's endocrine system has a very delicate balance and even small amounts of hormones can and will throw off the function of many of the glands putting your body into an imbalance which has reprecussions as innocent as hair loss or as serious as testicular cancer. There's no right way to take steroids.
Ha well, I hope my tips help you, they've helped quite a few people :]
I congratulate you on wanting to change your diet. Often, our diet is something we don't look at because we feel its sufficient. However, more often than not and unless you're a nutrionist or see one… (and even then) we consume substances that are detrimental to our health. So when you start doing these things I suggest, you will be making a commitment to yourself to better your health. Diets aren't for 2 months, diets are a lifetime thing so don't let yourself down.
!0 Rules of Dieting
1. Find out how you got to where you are and figure out what you want to change. If you just start a diet without any idea of where you have been going wrong, you won't know what to fix. You'll have an idea of what's wrong, but often there is more to a diet than eliminating candy. Set goals for yourself that are achieveable. Reward yourself with trinkets… NOT FOOD. If you select goals that are unachievable, you will end up miserable from your lack of progress and go back to where you began. We all think that the solution to weight problems is to remove all fats, and to eat more vegetables. Its a good solution, but its not going to do you any good. You can remove the chocolate, the coffee (which… I'm a firm believer that starbucks isn't bad for a diet…) and the sugar packed donuts… but if you over eat, you're only removing a small portion of the problem. So track how much you eat, what you eat and when you eat it for 5 days or longer if you feel necessary and thus you can start to solve the problem.
2. Don't use large plates when you eat. When we sit down for a meal, we put food on our plates and we (for some psychological reason) feel the need to fill the plate otherwise we think its empty and because of this, we end up in proportion distortion. So the best way to avoid portion distortion is to use smaller plates that we can visually see are full. And we can trick our brains into thinking we are eating just as much, even though are are not.
3. Look at what you are buying when you go to the store. Often, at the cost of nutrition, companies will remove nutrients to make food better. Doing this makes them more delicious but also makes them "empty calories." An empty calorie is anything that we don't need to consume or something that is completely stripped of nutritional value and well, it does nothing for us other than make us chubbier. The best example of when the empty calorie is most used is in breads and pastas. The grains used to make these delicious foods typically have all of their nutritional pluses removed to add flavor. One major nutritional plus is fiber. Fiber makes us feel more full, more quickly. What I can say as a general rule is that as the fiber content goes up, the flavor goes down. So think about that.
4. A big reason we consume empty calories is because we don't know what is in our foods. The best example is in restaurants. I worked for a restaurant for awhile and they add fats and sauces and other things that we don't think about to the food we enjoy the most. So thus the best way to avoid empty calories is to cook what you're going to eat. I don't enjoy this rule, but its the truth. Frozen foods and foods made from boxes have typically have high sodium counts and other hidden surprises, and I guarantee that unless you're a chemist that you'll have trouble pronouncing most of the ingredients in your favorite foods.
5. However much you think you need, whether on a plate or when you're adding substances while cooking, you're probably wrong. Cut it in half. VERY similar to portion distortion.
6. Drink plenty of water when you eat. I remember as a child that my parents would get angry with me for drinking too much water with meals and I wouldn't be able to finish my plate. Well, they were definitely wrong. Break the habit my parents taught me. Drink plenty of water when you eat and you will fell more full faster. When water and fiber mix together, they create the ultimate filler and weight loss dream. Fiber without water is painful, water without fiber… well… no problems there.
7. Make small adjustments. Don't add sauces to your vegetables, they have great nutritional content and typically, unless you know what empty calorie sauces and substances are, you will be offsetting the nutritional gains of the vegetables and just be adding unnecessary fats and calories and well, there is your problem.
8. Don't be discouraged by a lack of progress. Weight is a tricky measure. When we eat salty foods, we absorb more water and thus, we have a false reading on a scale. When the salt is ready to leave the body, the water will too. Also, just because you gained a pound doesn't mean its the end of the diet. It happens all the time. Finally, if you eat a bad food, learn from the experience. You made a mistake and remember how you felt when you saw the scale was 1 pound heavier and the next time the opportunity to eat that food
Well he is pretty thin too. He had decent arms but was still thin. To build muscle you have to eat at least 500 cals more than you burn per day, eat clean and do HIIt to keep fat gain down. You also need to have at least 1 gram per lb of bodyweight of protein daily. Ths link is to a free workout program, there are 2 I want you to look at , the first one is for muscle building, then look at the Tyler Durden one for AFTER you bulk up to where you want to be. Lots of good info on this site. Will give you a forum link to where you can get good answers to your fitness questions from eating to how to do something right to motivation.

yes
start my brother works out all the time were a good christian family he is a buff guy
A picture of you would of helped, but it sounds like your trying to gain mass, what is your daily protein intake by the way?
I remember thinking exactly the same as you mate, every one told me i need more carbs in my diet, and maybe that's the same with you.
well the best way to loose wait its either like some of my friends have rapped them selves in bubble rap and gone into a sona or put on 3-4 sweat suits and go jogging i know its not healthy but if u do it once it aint that bad and then after most of ur body fat is gone you will be pure muscle and will be eaiser to gain muscle so just go to a gym or reccenter and dont be scared people are gonna make fun of you i dont think ive ever see some one get made fun of if you want a good rip go for about 45min to a hour a day but it you want to look like the guys in bloodsport like jean claude van dame then go for 3 hours youll notice muscel difference in about 2 weeks to a month
also never do same parts for 2 days in a row like first day do upper body (benching,curling,ect..) then day 2 do lower body and ab (crunches, leg press,ect..) then after day 2 go back to day 1 also you could always pick up a martial art like taekwondo (the way of the hand and the foot) or something else and please dont do steroids they will screw you up and you can get big chunks of muscle in weird blaces (ive seen a muscles the size of a leg muscle on a guys ab it looked like a big boil)
Hi! I wonder a bit about the last things this woman in the video say.-”is your physical environment ordered and clean”…does this means that your house can impact your health?
there ya go! I’ve always said this about soda and caffeine! I remember when I was a young child, I would see old women who drank a cup of coffee every day their whole life, and their hands would shake alot until they drank coffee, then their hands would still tremble, just a lot calmer…..
I just read this amazing book! It has already had a huge impact on my life! This guy is the real deal…..a true Master of our times! When he speaks I listen! Rock On James Ray!
i admire u
I assume you are looking into steroids and prohormones, if so you can look at http://www.otcpct.com for what happens if you don't take procautions while on cycle and post cycle.
This inspires me to get back in shape and start taking better care of my body-temple! Thank You James Ray!
