Weight management encompasses an array of ways to maintain a current body weight. Weight management is different from weight loss in that you're not trying to shed pounds (which can be challenging). You're just trying to not gain them. Here are some tips.
Steps
Be mindful of your weight. It's your best feedback for how your lifestyle and diet are affecting your body. A big part of the reason people gain weight is because it happens gradually, and they don't notice until they've gained a significant amount. Balancing energy intake and energy expenditure is the basis of weight management throughout life.
Keep in mind that fluctuations of 1-3 lbs are normal throughout the week or even during the day. Do not become obsessive about weighing yourself daily; this mindset can become counterproductive. Because of fluctuations in weight during the week, recommendations say weighing yourself once per week is sufficient to help maintain your weight.
Eating a well balanced, healthy diet helps control caloric intake and maximizes vitamin and mineral intake. When your body has all the needed nutrients it requires, your energy levels stay high and you feel good about yourself. All these factors contribute to motivation to maintain a healthy diet, which in turn makes managing your current weight easier.
Balancing physical activity is imperative to maintaining your current weight. The American Heart Association, American Dietetic Association, and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend 60 minutes of moderate level exercise, daily, to maintain weight with out weight loss. Keep in mind that all exercise is beneficial, even if you can not reach the 60 minute goal each day. Try breaking your exercise routine into portions i.e. a few 15 minute walks per day.
Creating a positive outlook on healthy eating, exercise, and weight will make weight management more effective and enjoyable.
Tips
What is a healthy weight? For women, 100 pound for the first 5 feet of height, plus 5 pounds for each additional inch of height. For men, 106 pounds for the first 5 feet, plus 6 additional pounds for each inch of height.
Utilize the Food Guide Pyramid at www.mypryamid.gov to help plan healthy meals, track calories and exercise, and to find more advice on weight management.
Consider consulting a Registered Dietitian, the only credentialed nutrition experts, to help plan meals, identify problem areas in diet and exercise, and to provide novel approaches to weight management.
Always consult your primary physician if you have special health conditions or considerations when starting an exercise program or changing your current diet.
Things You'll Need
Gym memberships are beginning to be covered by health insurance companies. Look into cost effective strategies to keep your enthusiasm for exercise alive.
Non-food reward systems are a great way to stay on track during lifestyle modifications. Allow yourself a little splurge for staying on track.
Look into farmers market options in your cities. Not only do farmers markets support local economy, you get exercise while shopping for natural foods.
If you want to burn fat quickly combining cardiovascular training and strength training in your routine will ensure you see results in no time. The workouts don't have to include equipment that takes up half your living room or half your wallet if you know what to get. Here are some suggestions for great first-purchases to help get your fat burning at home program underway on a budget. All items should be available at your local sporting goods or fitness equipment retailer.
Steps
Make free weight exercises using dumbbells and barbells the foundation of your in-home gym fitness program. Free weights are compact, easy to store and take care of. Lifting free weights also gives you more strength training bang for your buck, because it works multiple muscle groups within an exercise. Focus on the basic compound exercises, such as squats, deadlifts and bench presses.
Use resistance bands. They offer a complete and highly effective strength training workout to build muscle and burn fat in a space-saving, inexpensive and highly portable form. Similar in look to a jump rope, the bands are made of plastic tubing and come in differing resistance levels (light, medium or heavy or specific pound equivalents). Whatever exercises you can do with free weights you can basically do with resistance bands. Most bands come with exercise illustrations, some even offer instructional videos. You can also find free resistance band exercises for burning fat on the internet, so there is no excuse not to get started.
Get a cardio workout. Whilst strength training is great for muscle building, cardio workouts will burn more calories during the exercise. Start doing simple exercises at home like push-ups, pull-ups, squats and abdominal crunches. Also consider fun activities which you could do with friends like walking, running, cycling, and swimming.
Tips
Strength training for women will not make you look bulky. Although it will help with increasing more muscle mass, which is what you want to boost your metabolism and burn fat, you will not get the bulky appearance as women don't build as much muscle as men. The female bodybuilders which you see in magazines have been training for years and they are probably not doing it naturally.
Make sure to include strength training exercises with free weights, resistance bands, your own body weight, in your routine. Increasing your muscle mass is fundamental to burning fat as it increases your metabolism. A high metabolism will make you burn more calories even at rest, as your muscles require more energy for fuel.
Weight lifting gloves help you keep your form and prevent injury by giving you a better grip on free weights. They cover the palm of your hand and stop at the fingers to give your hands maximum mobility. Make sure you get a snug but not-too-tight fit. Try them on before buying.
A weight bench can provide balance and support for working with free weights. Make sure you go for quality construction and stability – the bench should sit solidly on the floor and not rock in place when you sit or lean on it, and should have adequate padding. Try it out by lying down on your back on the bench that resists ripping.

Getting and staying in shape can be difficult for a lot of people. It is very common and yet people sometimes feel so alienated because of it. So, here are a few tips to help you get the most out of your workouts and eventually reach your optimum health and fitness goals.
Steps
First, be assured that this happens to a lot of people. Keeping up motivation is hard when you aren't seeing the results you want.
Set your goals. Physically write them out so you can refer to them when your motivation is faltering or if you just need a little boost.
Make small and large goals. Step-by-step goals are the easiest to achieve and you will be able to easily track your fitness progress.
Make a workout schedule. By writing out a schedule, you will be more likely to stick with it and follow it. You wouldn't want to throw off your schedule,right?
Stretch. If you don't already stretch before and after workouts, start now. And if you do, try adding a few more minutes of stretching in the middle of your day or before you go to sleep. Stretching relieves stress and tension and helps get you to relax.
Keep a food journal. If your problem is overeating or not eating what you should be eating in order to reach your goals, write it down. And the next step with that is to show someone. Some people find that because they have to show someone what they have eaten, they are less likely to eat things they are not supposed to.
Keep a fitness journal. This will help you to track where you've been, where you are going, and how you are progressing. Soon, you'll be able to see that you can run, bike, walk faster than you did before and at higher intensity levels. It is always a huge motivator when you can see improvement.
Eat something small before you workout. You need to make sure you body has some energy before you go in for the long haul. You will find that you will have better results and can last longer on the treadmill or in that cycling class if you have a little food in the stomach.
Oftentimes, people hit a plateau. It is hard to get over that brick wall, but it is possible. You have several choices. You can kick up your workouts to an even higher intensity or try a weight loss pill to jump-start your metabolism and get it cranking away again.
Drink plenty of water. And not just during and after a workout. You should be drinking water throughout the entire day.
Find cardio exercises that you actually enjoy doing. If you hate the treadmill with a passion, find something else. Try cycling, elliptical, tennis, dance, aerobics, water aerobics, long walks, or anything else you can think of. It doesn't have to feel like exercise for it to work.
Just meeting with a personal trainer once a month can help you target your problem areas. Ask your personal trainer about exercises for specific body parts that you are having trouble with toning up and trimming down.
Get plenty of sleep. When we don't get enough sleep, we stress our bodies out. When our bodies are stressed out, they will generally retain to weight. And who wants that?
Eat 4-6 times a day. To maintain a healthy weight, keep the portions smaller, like for women. For men interesting in gaining muscle mass and size, at every meal eat a source of protein (chicken,beef,eggs,fish) and carbs (rice, bread, potato) to keep your body well supplied with nutrients for growth. Eat every 2-2 1/2 hours a day.
Stay positive. You'll be surprised at the results optimism can bring.
Warnings
Don't have your goal be skinny. Instead, try to be healthy.
Stamina means having the strength and energy to endure an activity, illness or stressful situation for an extended period of time. People most commonly use the word stamina when referring to exercise, sports and other physical activities of the body or cognitive exercises of the brain. Generally, however, increasing stamina means decreasing fatigue when performing the activity.
Steps
Eat a healthily-balanced diet. A well-balanced, low-fat diet that includes plenty of fruits, vegetables and lean meats keeps your body healthy and increases both your physical and mental stamina.
Eat several smaller meals throughout the day rather than one or two large meals, to keep your body steadily supplied with energy.
Snack on fruits, raw vegetables, nuts and other lean proteins between meals. Carry high-energy fruit and nut mixes with you during times of extended performance, such as hiking, cycling or cramming for final exams.
Get plenty of physical exercise for optimal health and increased stamina.
Although physical exercise makes you tired immediately after you finish, regular exercise increases your energy level and stamina in the long run.
Cardiovascular exercise, such as aerobics, running, biking and dancing, exercise your heart and lungs, increasing the efficiency with which your body supplies oxygen to the muscles. As a result, your body's endurance and stamina increase and fatigue levels decrease.
Lead an active life. Basically, any type of movement is good for your cardiovascular health. Wear a pedometer and shoot for a goal of 10,000 steps every day.
Choose an activity that you love. It is easier to increase stamina and endurance if you enjoy the activity you are doing.
Gradually build up to the desired level of performance. Start out slow by doing the activity for 30 minutes the first time. Increase the duration of your performance by realistic intervals until you reach your goal.
Involve others in the activity to make it more fun.
Bring the kids, the dog or a neighbor when you go for your daily run or walk. Or, join a gym where you can make friends and exercise together.
Keep your motivation high and increase your stamina for studying during final exam week by hosting study sessions for friends.
Visualize your goal by closing your eyes to see yourself finishing the race or getting an A on the final exam. Avoid focusing on the challenges, obstacles or hurdles you may face before reaching your goal.
Tips
Give yourself plenty of physical or cognitive breaks to avoid fatigue.
Warnings
Keep up a steady pace and don't break your routine. Taking a day off from the activity may be a helpful break, but allowing yourself to skip it too many days in a row may make it much harder to resume the activity.
