Every year in January, gym attendance peaks as every man and his dog hits the treadmill for a week or two. And just a few short weeks later, not one in ten will still be exercising. No time, no money. The excuses are everywhere. And they really are nothing more than excuses. There are men and women out there working 60 or more hours a week in tough jobs who also have families, and yet they are in great shape. The time has come to stop making excuses.

What is particularly sad is the fact that so many people just don’t know what to do. They believe that if they don’t have access to the perfect program, then anything else is a waste of time. This couldn’t be farther from the truth. What about walking or running? This is free and will get anyone into shape. It also gets you away from the desk for half an hour and into the fresh air, which is certainly good news.

It is also very easy to incorporate resistance training into your lifestyle of personal health and fitness without needing to spend a cent. Bodyweight exercises can work wonders. Try lunges, bodyweight squats and push ups for starters. For a bit of variety, what about heading don to a local park and doing some dips and chins of the monkey bars.

Of course, without decent nutrition, this is a waste of time. But once again, this really isn’t that complicated. Surely everyone knows that eating a lot of fruit and veggies and drinking water and green tea is good news by now? Everyone would be a whole lot leaner already if they just cut as much processed food as possible out of their diets.

There really is no need to go on a starvation diet. Making small changes is plenty to get most people down to a level of body fat where they can tell that their abs are in their somewhere!

There are several types of tea available on the market and the most common being black tea. And I know for sure that this really is a popular tea with the British getting through 165 millions cups per day!

The Catch

Unfortunately, as much as we (especially the Brits) love black tea we need to move towards the more exotic variety of teas including Green, Oolong, Pu-erh, Porangaba, Okinawan, Feiyan, and several herbal varieties. All of these provide the following benefits.

Metabolism Boosting

Replacing your cup of regular black tea with a cup of green tea has been shown to significantly increase the body’s metabolic rate and therefore speeding up weight loss. Pur-erh tea also has been shown to have a similar effect on the metabolism.

Increasing Energy Levels

Porangaba tea has been recently shown, particularly in the media, to have a dramatic effect on energy levels whilst suppressing the appetite, therefore making it easier to shift those excess pounds.

Health and Longevity

Okinawan tea is always being promoted for its health benefits, namely because the Okinawans are known for having one of the longest life expectancies in the world and have very few issues with obesity. Clearly, this may not all be down to them drinking tea as they also have a nutritious diet filled with plenty of fish and vegetables. However, the tea will certainly play a part in their slender figures and longevity.

Cholesterol and Body Detox

Feiyan tea is made with several different ingredients including lotus leaves, cansia seeds, vegetable sponge and green tea. It boasts several slimming benefits such as reduced bloating and detoxes the body as well as possibly reducing blood fat and cholesterol levels.

Herbal

Herbal teas that include dandelion or nettle can help eliminate excess water and therefore reduce weight. Fennel which is also found as a secondary ingredient in many herbal teas has appetite-suppressing properties which help with your weight loss program.

As you can see tea has many weight loss benefits but remember it is only a part of your weight loss journey. Merely drinking tea will not have a significant effect on reducing your weight, since this can only really be achieved when you follow a weight loss program. Of course whether you are on a weight loss program or not drinking tea is always good!
