Currently, the youth have had a certain enthusiasm for fitness life, since they see it related to the people they follow on social networks.

However, most people have no knowledge of what nutrition or fitness really is and make it look like the goal to become role models, regardless of the sacrifice that must be made to achieve the goal.

Some say they practice this lifestyle just because they go to the gym, but do not eat the right food, or during the week they exercise and eat well, but on the weekend they exceed it with the consumption of junk food and alcohol.

Nutritional Plans

The metabolic rate must be taken into account for the beginning of the diet adjusted according to the caloric expenditure derived from daily activity, physical activity and age. In addition, the distribution of macronutrients throughout the day is important.

In food, salt reduction is essential. Although it will be a bit complicated at first, it is what will improve the appearance of the skin, since it will allow a less swollen and more defined body. In some cases, bags under the eyes disappear.

Weight training

In training you should use routines that are made up of machines and dumbbells. This will allow you to work muscle groups separately. In this way, the work will be more intense and will allow you to effectively shape, reduce fat and improve muscle tone.

Cardio

Cardio is recommended for 30 or 40 minutes, 4 days a week. Normally, it is done after the weights in training.

Cardio allows you to burn calories, improves the Body Mass Index (BMI) and speeds up metabolism. It also strengthens the immune system, balances the nervous system, improves your self-esteem, and helps control blood pressure.

Constant water consumption

When exercising, it is necessary to have good hydration because in sweating you lose water, iron, vitamins, sodium, magnesium, zinc and potassium, everything necessary for good performance and subsequent recovery.

Good hydration will allow a better recovery capacity. The more hydration, the easier it will be for you to recover. That is why it is recommended to even drink water despite not feeling thirsty.

Being dehydrated leads to fatigue, cramps, and muscle aches, causing performance to decline.

Fiber Intake

One of the most common errors in diets is the lack of fiber. When practicing some type of sport, enough fiber should be consumed. About 30-35 grams per day derived from fruits and cereals are recommended.
