Before heading over to a Brooklyn health club or workout center, it's a good idea to take a minute and reconsider your diet.
Ask yourself a few basic questions.
Are you getting enough greens? Are you eating enough whole grains? What type of protein are you getting and is it enough? More than likely, the answer to these questions is no, especially if you are suffering from SAD - the Standard American diet.
While getting to the workout center is an important step when it comes to leading a healthier lifestyle, it is only one part of the puzzle.
You must also work to eat a healthier diet.
This means eating 4-5 servings of greens and vegetables.
Eating more whole grains such as quinoa and oats.
And getting enough protein from a clean source meaning making sure that it is grass fed, antibiotic free and hormone free.
Another thing to consider before heading to a Brooklyn health club or workout center is ask yourself,do you know what to do once you get there? Most people do not get results at the gym, simply because they don't know what they are doing.
They don't know how much weight they should be lifting.
They don't know how long they should be doing cardio and they don't know how to get results.
Many people join a gym, end up frustrated and wasting money because they are not getting the results they desire.
And the problem is simply that they don't know what they are doing before they get there.
Doing a little research or better yet, hiring a personal trainer is something else to consider before heading to a Brooklyn Health Club.
