It is necessary to lay down objectives, which will make it possible to increase our ENDURANCE for efforts, our aptitude to resist tiredness or the pain. To preserve or improve our condition, the physical exercises are recommended. Add to these exercises some relaxation.

These physical activities will be of two types:

  - aerobic exercises which need oxygenation, blood circulation and structure the heart in the long term.

  - weight training exercises: to strengthen and invigorate the whole body.

As for relaxation, it mainly made up of stretching of the muscles and is perhaps accompanied by yawns (helping the relieving of the diaphragm, the main muscle of breathing). The search for tactile feelings in a calm environment, is the best means of contributing to relax and to slacken.

On the nutrition side :

- reduce the fat food (for example eat more fish with white flesh, poultry).

- drink at least two liters (1/2 gallons) of water per day.

- eat low carbohydrates (pasta, brown or wild rice, oatmeal ...), which provide energy gradually to our body (reducing the storage of fats).

- vegetables and fruits fresh are rich in fiber (facilitating the intestinal transit time) and vitamins (mainly vitamin C and carotene).

- take vitamins supplements, if necessary (momentary tiredness, cold, ... ).

- Reduce or better stop drinking alcohol and smoking tobacco.

- Try to better evaluate the energy value of the meals (read the labels of the products - use tables of calories).

- Enter the energy expenditure, for example an adult consumes between 2700 kcal/day for a man and 2000 kcal/day for a woman.

Exercises help us to increase this energy expenditure, whereas our feeding will credit our account of calories. It is necessary to learn how to balance our nutrition intake, making exercises.

All those advices are really simple to implement. On the other hand, to accomplish them on longer terms are less obvious. This is why one should not hesitate to be surrounded by the qualified professionals (professor of physical education and physical culture, doctor, dietician, nutritionist, cardiologist, psychologist...).

Perseverance and the regularity will be your determining assets.
