New Year's resolutions should be New Years solutions. If
you are making it your resolution to exercise every day it is more than likely
that you are at a sedentary physical activity level.
Asking too much from yourself is the number 1 reason why people tend to give
up and fail to stick with their New Year's resolutions.
Suitable Solution to the 5th Worst New Years Resolution
Life is usually to busy and unpredictable to plan something every single day.
What you can do is analyze your schedule and set aside the times during the
week which you are 100% sure you can set aside some free time for exercise and
start from there.
You feel out of shape and unhealthy from eating large dinners and dessert and
maybe a few too many glasses of eggnog.
While late night infomercials may seem like your New Year's solution at the
time, they mostly are nothing more than a flash in the pan gimmick.
Fitness gimmicks will help you lose inches on your wallet not your waistline.
Suitable Solution to the 4th Worst New Years Resolution
Educate yourself about the most valuable physical asset you have: Your
own body. By learning simple facts about your body and how it functions it
is easy to spot a fitness gimmick from something which can actually help you
accomplish your fitness goals and stick with your New Year's resolutions.
Elimination Carbs Eliminates your Chances for Success
If your New Year's resolution has anything to do with living a satisfying and
healthy life carbohydrates play a very important part.
Carbohydrates supply your body with the needed fuel for the intense exercise
you need to sculpt your body to its desired shape.
Without sufficient carbs your body will be low on energy and your exercise
will not be intense enough to accomplish your fitness goals.
Most importantly, your brain which is fueled with glucose (blood sugar).
If you eliminate carbs from your diet your brain will suffer and we all know
that your body does what your brain tells it so do not eliminate carbs from your
diet.
Suitable Solution to the 3rd Worst New Years Resolution
Instead of eliminating an important nutrient from your diet, stick with whole
grain, complex carbohydrates. Learn the difference between "good
carbohydrates" which are usually high in fiber and low in simple sugars and "bad
carbohydrates" which are usually devoid of fiber and processed.
Like fitness gimmicks which are marketed to be the miracle cure to your
flabby thighs or mid-section diet pills are nothing more than a short term
gimmick.
The active ingredient in 99% of diet pills is caffeine and your body will
develop a tolerance to the world's most popular drug.
In high doses caffeine can cause problems and prolonged use of diet pills has
been known to have long-term metabolism lowering effects.

Look into supplements which can help you for the long term. Since there
has NEVER ever been a magic pill you should use supplements for what they are...
Supplements.
The word diet has been synonymous with short term radical change of one's
eating habits especially for New Year's resolutions.
Like the aforementioned fitness gimmicks and diet pills, fad diets almost
never work for the long term.
If your goal for this upcoming year is achieve something which you can
maintain for the entire year, "going on a diet" is the worst New Years
Resolution.
