If you are like me you probably struggle to keep a balance between your family and career. For stay-at-home mothers it does not get any easier. Our hectic schedules make it sometimes impossible to take a 10 minute break for ourselves. As a certified Personal Trainer I come across women who would like to get in shape but lack the time and motivation. But women should also be aware of the consequences of a sedentary lifestyle. Although heart disease was once considered a “man’s disease”, it is the leading cause of death in both men and women. Women account for 52.6 percent of the total heart disease deaths. In 2005 heart disease was the cause of death in 454,000 females according to the Central of Disease Control. Prevention is the key It is well known that exercise and a well balanced nutritional program can help prevent heart disease, high cholesterol and osteoporosis. If you find yourself unmotivated and lacking the knowledge as to where to start, it’s time to call a knowledgeable and certified Personal Fitness Trainer. She can help you achieve your goals by designing a safe, effective program to challenge you. |
