Eat Your Way to a Healthy Skin
"Lotions and potions are great and smell nice, but the very best way to get beautiful skin is from the inside out, which means eating a skin-friendly, healthy diet."
WATER WORKS
You should drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your skin clear and bright. Aim for about six glasses a day and avoid soda, which is full of sugar.
FRESH & FRUITY
You should try to eat at least five portions of fresh fuits and vegetables everyday. Skin-friendly superfoods includes carrots, broccoli, apricots, strawberries, watercress and oranges. Their great for the rest of your body, too.
GREAT NEWS!!!
Experts can't find any evidence to link eating chocolate with having problematic skin, so you can still indulge occasionally.
PERFECT DAILY MEAL PLAN
It's important not to skip meals - a regular healthy diet can work wonders on your skin and will give you lots of energy.
Breakfast.
Start with a glass of fresh juice and whole-grain cereal with sliced bananas and milk, followed by toast and honey.
Lunch.
Lunch.
Make a cheese or ham sandwich on whole wheat bread with salad followed by yogurt and fruit.
Dinner.
Dinner.
Go for grilled chicken and a baked potato with fresh vegetables, followed by fresh fruit salad with yogurt and nuts.
Snacks.
Snacks.
Don't go hungry between meals. If you feel cranky, try a healthy snack to keep you going. Fruit, nuts, vegetable sticks, crackers, yogurt, or a slice of whole-grain toast are far better for you than candy or chips.

Importance of Stretching in a Work Out
Stretching not only counters the muscle-shortening effects of exercise, it can work wonders for your mind as well. Stretching will help tone and lengthen our muscles and it will also make you more flexible. The best thing about stretching is that it'll make you look longer and leaner. Stretching is also a great way to stimulate the lymphatic system, which in turn helps cleanse the body of toxins and boost circulation circulation.
Stretching is important for people of all ages! One of the greatest benefits of stretching is that you’re able to increase your range of motion, which means your limbs and joints can move further before an injury occurs. Post-exercise stretching can also aid in workout recovery, decrease muscle soreness, and ensure that your muscles and tendons are in good working order. The more conditioned your muscles and tendons are, the better they can handle the rigors of sport and exercise, and the less likely that they'll become injured.
Four Ways to Fitness
Targets:
All the major muscles in the body - to make them longer, leaner and more toned.
What's involved:
A series of challenging stretches that will leave your mind calm and your body more flexible.
Who it will suit:
If you're stressed you'll benefit from this relaxing routine. It's also great if you want to prevent your muscles from becoming bulky.
BODY TONING
Targets:
Each of the major muscle groups in the body - it's an all-over workout.
What's involved:
A wide variety of exercises that are fun to do including squats, lunges, sidekicks, stepping, crunches, press-ups and lifting dumbbells.
Who it will suit:
People who wants to see an all-over improvement in muscle tone and shape and who want to target the whole body instead of specific trouble zones.
FLAT STOMACH
Targets:
The four abdominal muscle groups that support your lower back, protect the internal organs, maintain your posture and allow you to bend, twist and sit up.
What involved:
Seated exercises such as knee lifts, and ones that you can do on the floor like pelvic tilts, plus a series of curls (mini sit-ups).
Who it will suit:
Apple-shaped women(who tend to store fat around the middle) and new moms wanting to tone up saggy skin.
HIPS AND THIGHS
Targets:
Like it says on the box, this section targets your hips, thighs and those stubborn pockets of fat around the tops of the legs that are so hard to shift.
What's involved:
A series of squats, lunges, seated and standing exercises, plus a lot that you can do lying on the floor.
Who it will suit:
Anyone who struggles to shift fat from their lower half.
