Comentarios de una experta en leer sobre perder grasa después de las fiestas

También te vendrá muy bien este artículo si estás buscando darle forma a tu meta de perder algunos kilos este año. En ningún caso te vendrá mal. A pesar de que -aclaro-: Este artículo no está escrito por una experta en nutrición y dietética. Está escrito por una mujer que intenta adoptar y mantener hábitos saludables… poco a poco. Ni atleta ni tan sedentaria. Normalita.

 Siempre he llevado una alimentación relativamente saludable, sin muchos sacrificios, pero me he dado cuenta de que los años no perdonan. Hace unos años se me empezó a hacer cuesta arriba (al mejor estilo de la cuesta de enero) perder grasa o mantener la figura sin hacer cambios reales en mi rutina diaria.

 El año pasado me casé y me puse a tope. Perdí 12 kilos en unos cuantos meses, logré cogerle el gustillo al deporte y me he puesto a leer mucho sobre hábitos de vida saludables para ayudarte a perder grasa después de las fiestas. Aquí van mis hallazgos.

 Consejos para perder grasa después de las fiestas

Si bien no soy una experta, lo que hago es buscar información de fuentes fiables, entre los que sí que lo son, a ver qué hábitos saludables puedo ir incorporando a mis rutinas diarias. Quizás algunas de las cosas que he encontrado os son de utilidad. Demás está decir que hay que evitar dietas peligrosas o de dudoso origen, pasar hambre, caer en hábitos que puedan ser nocivos para la salud y, por supuesto, visitar al médico o algún experto si necesitas ayuda.

Las dietas milagrosas no existen. Lo he comprobado y seguro que tú también. Es normal que durante las fiestas y cenas de Nochebuena perdamos un poco el norte pero ya es el momento de recuperarlo con estas ideas:

 El cuerpo humano está tan perfectamente diseñado que ya tiene sus propios mecanismos para desintoxicarte: deshacerse de lo que no sirve. Sin embargo, gran cantidad de dietas detox se han puesto de moda y nosotros no te las recomendamos. Lo que sí te podemos recomendar es incorporar algunas rutinas detox a tu dieta diaria.

 El verdadero detox consiste en que elimines de tu alimentación las cosas que hacen daño y los excesos: comer en cantidades más normales; bajar el consumo de grasas, hidratos de carbono, alcohol, etc. Y, por otro lado, purificar tu organismo con alimentos mucho más nutritivos y que lo ayuden a desintoxicarse: antioxidantes; frutas; vitaminas; fibra natural.

  Sin consulta de un especialista no te recomendamos emprender dietas líquidas. Una recomendación adicional: Merienda a media mañana un zumo detox rico en frutas y vitaminas. Aumenta tu consumo de frutas y vegetales frente a otros alimentos menos sanos.

 El ejercicio es la clave. No sweat no candy. Intenta ejercitarte al menos cinco o seis días por semana. Aunque sea caminar intensamente media hora ya es algo. Y sube tus cuotas de cardio. Sube las escaleras, camina, muévete. Es ideal para perder grasa después de las fiestas, acelerar el metabolismo y ayudarte a perder peso.

 Otro consejo: Hacer algo de pesas o ejercicios de fuerza antes del cardio te ayudará a quemar más grasa.

 Averigua qué cantidad de agua deberías tomar a diario. Asegúrate de consumir mínimo dos litros al día. El agua, además de mantener hidratado tu cuerpo y piel, te ayudará a sentirte con menos hambre, satisfecho y te ayudará a ir más seguido al baño a eliminar los excesos.

 Recomendaciones adicionales: Toma un vaso de agua en ayunas al levantarte; toma un vaso de agua antes de cada comida.

 Evita el estrés o aprende a gestionarlo de una forma más positiva: meditación, contar hasta diez, paciencia, ejercicio, ratos de desconexión o cualquier cosa que te ayude a mantenerte en calma. La ansiedad a la hora de comer es muy mala consejera y en la mayoría de los casos te invita a comer entre comidas.

 Las fiestas muchas veces implican trasnochar. Hay que dejar eso atrás e intentar recuperar buenos hábitos de sueño: dormir es el mejor consejo del mundo, ocho horas diarias contribuyen a acelerar tu metabolismo.

 Sin agobiarte, pésate y averigua en cuánto te has pasado después de las fiestas. Trázate metas razonables a corto plazo que puedas ir alcanzando. Ir lográndolas poco a poco te hará ganar la seguridad y motivación que necesitas para avanzar.

Ha llegado el momento de bajarle dos a las cenas. Intenta cenar más en casa ahora que hay menos actividad social. Y, muy importante, intenta reducir las cantidades y -sobre todo- los hidratos de esta comida.

 Intenta no cenar tan tarde. Recuerda hacerlo por lo menos dos horas antes de irte a la cama.

Evita el alcohol o disminuye su consumo. Su contenido calórico es mayor que incluso una comida y si no haces mucho ejercicio será mucho más difícil de eliminar.

Esta clave hay que recuperarla: desayuno, merienda, comida, merienda, cena. Comer más veces al día, en cantidades más controladas, te ayudará a mejorar la digestión, acelerar el metabolismo, quemar más calorías y tener más energía.

Revisa cada semana la dieta que estás siguiendo y encuentra nuevas opciones. Mira la preparación de comida sana y rica como un reto personal.

Cuida lo que comes y revisa cada fin de semana lo que podrías comer la próxima semana. Esto te ayudará a hacer una compra más sana y planificada y evitar las tentaciones. E, incluso, si preparas algunas comidas de forma anticipada, evitarás la excusa de no haber tenido tiempo para cocinar.

Sal, azúcar, mayonesa, salsas… Evítalos. Te ayudan a retener líquidos y suelen aportar azúcar y grasas demás.Una alternativa saludable. Sustituye los aderezos artificiales por opciones naturales: vinagre de manzana, aguacate, yogurt griego, limón.Puedes hacer una comida trampa una vez a la semana. Eso sí, intenta no sobrepasarte demasiado para no perder los resultados. Realmente lo ideal sería salirte una vez cada 21 días pero puedes darte pequeñas gratificaciones cada semana y así ver ese gusto también como un pequeño premio.

THE BENEFITS OF ICE HOCKEY

What are the first things that you think of when you hear the phrase “ice hockey?” I know for me personally, I think of blood, fights, confusion, and fast paced. If that’s all that ice hockey has to offer – then the sport wouldn’t be as huge as it is, right? Ice hockey can be extremely benefiting – and the benefits may or may not surprise you.

Ice hockey helps burn fat and calories.

The fast pace of the game requires short bursts of energy that help burn a huge number of calories. Each player burns about 0.061 calories per pound, per minute. This amounts to a huge loss of body weight in the long run.

Ice hockey develops the cardiovascular system of the body.

The energy and muscular strength required in hockey help in the development of cardiovascular system, which supplies the muscles with oxygen. Pumping of sufficient quantities of oxygen helps to improve the breathing and cellular activity.

Ice hockey boosts your metabolism.        

Because of the start-stop nature of the game, where fast skating is broken up by periods of rest, you may get to enjoy even greater cardio benefits. This pattern mimics high intensity interval training, which can burn more calories and boost your metabolism.

Ice hockey is a full body workout.

Playing hockey is an excellent way of developing the leg muscles, such as the hamstrings, calves and hip flexor muscles. It also aids in developing the endurance of triceps, forearms and shoulder muscles.

Ice hockey enhances muscular strength.

The enhanced muscular strength gained from hockey can reduce the risk of injury, improve bone strength, strengthen connective tissues and increase muscle mass. All of these contribute positively to a healthier, stronger body that is less prone to injury and has improved overall function.

Ice hockey develops hand-eye coordination.

Playing hockey involves the coordination between the hands and the eyes. It also improves the spontaneous responses and reactions of the players during the game. Practicing this game aids in developing coordination abilities, improves hand-eye reflexes and  improves agility.

Ice hockey improves body coordination and balance.

In ice hockey, players must pass and receive pucks that are traveling quickly across the ice, and field hockey players must do the same with a ball. In either version, players must react quickly in order to accurately respond to or make a play. Developing these skills can lead to improved overall balance and agility, and hand-eye coordination is also positively affected.

Ice hockey improves communication.

Playing hockey involves the communication of messages through eyes and gestures. Being able to effectively communicate with a teammate in the middle of a fast play not only leads to success on the ice, but it also leads to the overall improvement in the communication skills of the players.

Ice hockey will give your brain a boost.

Exercise itself can improve your mood because of the endorphins that are released, easing feelings of depression, stress and anxiety. As a form of exercise, hockey provides this benefit, but there’s an added brain boost that comes with the sport as well. Hockey demands good decision-making, and honing these skills on the ice or field can also be transferred to everyday life.

Ice hockey builds character.

Since hockey is a team sport, children who play learn the value of working with others. They figure out how to rely on teammates and understand that cooperation is key to success. These lessons can extend into adulthood as teammates turn into coworkers, coaches become bosses, and teams become the companies for which they work. An overlooked benefit of ALL team sports is developing the ability to accept the highs and lows in life with poise and balance. Experiencing the wins and losses that come with hockey helps a child deal with the wins and losses in life all that much better. Hockey also promotes a strong sense of self, a positive self-esteem and pride.

The Ice Hockey

Ice hockey is a contact team sport played on ice, usually in a rink, in which two teams of skaters use their sticks to shoot a vulcanized rubber puck into their opponent's net to score points

Players & Equipment

The game is played on an ice rink measuring roughly 61 m in length by 30 m in width. The rink is split into three main sections. The middle section is the neutral zone and includes a center circle where the games start. At either side of the neutral zone are attacking and defending zones of which are determined by whichever team has the puck at the time. In each attacking and defending zone are two end zone face off circles and spots. There is a goal crease which is a half circle surrounding the goal. Behind the goal is the boards area.

Each player will have their own hockey stick along with ice skates and a series of padding which may include face mask, helmet, padded shorts, shoulder pads, arm guards and gloves. Each goal tender will have the same but on a much denser scale due to them being in the firing line of the puck much more often.

Each team can have a maximum of 20 players. Of these 20 players only six may be on the ice at any one time. The rest will be used as substitutes but can come and go from the game as often as required. The six starters include a goal tender and 5 outfield players. Whilst each player will be given a position, the players are free to move around the ice as they choose. This does exclude the goal tender of which must remain within their half and not pass the center red line.

The players hit what is called a ‘puck’. The puck is heavy object made from dense rubber and weighs roughly 6 ounces. The puck is hit by either a players stick or foot but at no point can the puck be handled by any player other than the goal tender.

Each game lasts for three 20 minute periods. For every stoppage in the game the game clock is stopped and as soon as the time is up in each period then the game will instantly cease.

Scoring

To score a goal a player must hit the puck over the goal line. They can use any part of their body or their stick to do so but cannot use their hand. The whole of the puck needs to cross the line to be deemed a goal. In professional leagues like the NHL the goal line has a sensor running across it which indicates when the puck has fully crossed the line. In amateur leagues the judgement of the umpires are taken into account.

Winning the Game

To win a game one team must score more goals than their opponents. If the game is a tie then the game goes into overtime and an additional quarter is played out until one of the teams score. The first team to score will be the winners.

Ice Hockey Rules

The origins of ice hockey date back to the 19th century in Canada where adaptations of the modern day hockey game were played in icy conditions. Since then the sport has gone on to become one of the largest in the world with the major participants originating from North America. The NHL (National Hockey League) is the largest league in the world and currently turns over millions of dollars each year.

Object of the Game

The object of the game is to hit a small puck across the ice before then hitting it into a goal with a hockey stick. Every time the puck goes into the goal then one point is awarded for that team. The puck can be passed around the players on the ice and it’s the job of the opposition to try and prevent the other team from scoring. The team with the most goals at the end of the game are declared the winners. Should the game end in a tie then the game will go into overtime where the first team to then score will be crowned winners.

Rules of Ice Hockey

The game starts in the centre circle with a face off. This is where the referee drops the puck in between two opposing players who then scrap to win position for their team. A faceoff may also be used to resume play after a stoppage in any of the attacking or defending face off zones.

Players may use physical force to win the puck off their opponent. Body checking can be used but is not prohibited in the back or above shoulder height.

Players who are imposed to have committed a minor penalty will be ordered to leave the ice for two minutes and their team play with 5 players for that duration. If the opposing team score a goal within those two minutes then that player can return to the rink immediately.

A minor penalty can include tripping an opponent with their stick, holding with either their stick or hands, hooking with their stick or body checking a player without the puck.

Major penalties will result in a player being removed from the ice for up to 5 minutes. These may include fighting, inflicting serious injury on opposing players or continued minor violations.
