Are you worried about your ageing memory?

Thu, Aug 08, 2013

As we age, it is normal for our memory and other brain functions to decline. There is little point in living to 100 if our brain is not functioning properly. Throughout our lives new brain cells are being created in a process called neurogenesis (neuro means nerve and genesis means birth). Even in people with Alzheimer’s new brain cells are being created. However we need to have these brain cells functioning at full capacity; hence the importance of exercise and diet. Next we need to engage these new cells so these new brain cells begin communicating with each other, rejuvenating our brain’s abilities.

Fix your metabolism for a weight loss miracle

Thu, Aug 08, 2013

Fixing your metabolism is the miracle you need to lose your weight once and for all. It can double your weekly weight loss results. It is the only way to shift stubborn fat from your stomach, hips, and thighs. Fixing your metabolism will help your body to burn fat 24/7, and will make it easier to keep the weight off afterwards. It is also a powerful factor in anti ageing — in 10 weeks you can easily turn the clock back five to 10 years.

Metabolism problems such as slow thyroid, type 2 diabetes, sluggish liver, hormone imbalances, PCOS, endometriosis, infertility, and digestive problems such as constipation, IBS, and diverticulitis will limit or stop your weight loss, no matter how much dieting or exercise you do. Work on fixing your metabolism for amazing results.

Challenge yourself at The Coast Club

Thu, Jul 25, 2013

Do you use cardio for weight control? Are you one of the many people who run, cycle, and swim, or take classes to keep your weight under control? Did you find that at first your weight loss was quite noticeable but now it has hit a plateau? If the answer is yes to the above questions, it is time to think about ways of kicking your cardio up a notch or two to make it productive again.

Your body is an amazingly adaptive organism. If stress (and exercise is a form of stress) does not kill you it will make you stronger and fitter. In addition, repeated bouts of the same stress (exercise class, running, etc) result in your body becoming more economical. For weight loss, energy economy is the last thing you want.

Stylish summer sports wear for the fashion conscious

Thu, Jul 11, 2013

With all the sporting events happening over the summer, I’ve been feeling quite motivated to keep fit. I am an avid fan of Pilates, and try to attend a couple of classes a week and lately I’m training to run five kilometres; for no particular reason other than keeping healthy. With the sunshine here to stay for a week or two, there is no time like the present to be outdoors, whether it’s to take a stroll in the park or run a full marathon. Getting the right clothing is important, for comfort more than anything, especially for your feet to protect them from injury. I’ve been doing some research on the sporting attire on offer this season, and do you know what? It’s just a little stylish!

I’ve been prone to ankle injuries ever since I had a bad fall when I was five and fractured my foot. Any time I trip or walk awkwardly (high heels are normally to blame) my recurring injury comes out to play, so one thing I am really particular about is my footwear for walking and jogging. Finding the right shoe is not as difficult as it sounds with trained staff in all sport stores who can recommend the right fit and type for you. Every big brand is listening to the needs of athletes, and that goes for the fashion conscious ones too, like me. Nike have an amazing range of running shoes in hot summer colours, like neon orange and lime greens. I really like the Nike Free 5.0 Women's Running Shoe, which is a lightweight breathable shoe, which feels like you are barely wearing anything on your feet. What’s even more interesting about this shoe is that I have spotted the odd famous magazine editor wearing these around fashion week too! (Available from Lifestyle Sports, €105)
