Understand what real health is. There are so many things out there that people call being “healthy”. Health is not a number on a scale or a pant size. Healthy isn’t large muscles or a flat stomach. There are a number of things that really contribute to your health, and Understanding Your BMR, BMI, Body Fat Percentage & Your Health is a great place to begin. Things like, feeding your body nutrient-dense foods, healthy fats and getting regular exercise are much more important than what your BMI may be. Understanding that your body fat percentage will vary depending on your body type and genetics can help you to target loss, so you aren’t losing muscle but actually fat. Focus on what real health is, and stop worrying about the numbers associated with what society often calls “health”.
This year you can set yourself up for a successful healthy new year by considering these steps. Get realistic about your ability to reach your goals, find what works for you and your needs and understand what real health is. You’ll find your health improve drastically and easily.
