Since the pandemic, all of us want a healthy lifestyle that can keep us physically, mentally and emotionally fit. So to help you to lead a healthy life, including these three lifestyle changes for a sustainable healthy body. Hello Fitness Magazine got into a candid conversation with Mr Mayank Pandey, a fitness enthusiast, Food Expert, Gym Instructor and Coach residing in Surat.
1. Environmental setup
Better the environment, the better will be the food habits.
If there is junk food in your house or in your possession, either you or someone you love, will eventually eat it. Therefore keep healthy stuff near you and unhealthy stuff away from your environment.
2. Healthy movements
Fitness Coach Mayank Pandey Strongly believes that Fitness is not all about busting your butt to get a gym body. It’s about being capable, confident, and free.
Human life has become structured in a way that makes it very easy to avoid movement. We sit in a car on the way to work, we are at our desks at work for much of the day, and then we come home and sit down to relax. That’s not what our bodies are built for.
We don’t need to work out for a healthy movement. Some of the healthy movements like -
- Take staircase wherever possible
- Do your own chores
- Play with a kid
- Wash your own care
- Take walk in between office time
- Sign up for a class that involves physical activity (dance)
- Walk or cycle to work
3. Hand size portion eating
Using hands to measure portions is a good approach for most people who don’t need specific amounts of food or macronutrients. Because calorie counting can be frustrating and impractical. It just doesn’t fit into most people’s busy, messy, complicated lives.
This works well for many.
- Hands are portable. They come with you to work lunches, restaurants, social gatherings, etc.
- Hands are scaled to the individual. Bigger people need more food and tend to have bigger hands and vice versa.
- It helps you meet protein, vegetable, carbs, fat and calorie needs without having to count a gram of weight a food.
Therefore it looks like
- Palm portion of protein
- Fist portion of vegetables
- Cupped hand portion of carbs
- Thumb portion of fat
