 1. GET ADEQUATE SLEEP

You must be wondering how can one be fit by just sleeping? Well, you can. You just have to know the difference between sleeping and healthy sleeping. This minute line of difference changes the whole picture here. The basic difference lies in the time for when we are asleep. A healthy sleep ranges from 7-9 hours daily, anything below or above that range is unhealthy. 

Each person is unique and so are their sleep patterns, everyone has different sleep requirements but when you sleep your body goes through a set of stages. The most important being ‘Deep Sleep’. To reach deep sleep, you have to go through other stages which require adequate time. So, take hold of your pillows and get sleeping as fast as you can!

2. EAT HEALTHY

Nutrition plays a vital role in shaping up your body and determining your health. ‘You are what you eat’ is a popular saying that is true to its senses. Eating healthy does not mean that all you have to eat is vegetables and fruits but avoid junk and oily food whenever possible.

Oily and unhealthy food makes you feel bloated and lazy, it limits your physical activity and can have adverse effects on your heart, kidneys, and liver. You can add dry fruits and milk in your diet, go for natural and healthy resorts that would yield benefit out of your body.

3. KNOW WHAT YOU ARE EATING

One of the most important factors of being fit is knowing what is going inside your body. To have adequate knowledge about the food item you are eating, you can download several applications via the internet. Sometimes, we don’t know that we are eating junk and calorie-rich food due to a lack of knowledge of the ingredients. This practice affects our body severely without even making us realise our wrongdoings.  

Once you know the exact nutritional value of the item you’re eating, you can actually act on it and it will be very beneficial in achieving your goal more efficiently and more quickly.

4. STAY HYDRATED

Our body is made up of up to 60% water. This water regulates the smooth functioning of vital organs and keeps our body going on. An average male body should consume about 3.7-4 Litres of water and for females, this range comes down to 2.7-3 Litres. Water is responsible for transporting all the vital nutrients and oxygen to your cells.

It also ensures that all the toxic and harmful bacteria are removed from your bladder. This regular consumption of water will make sure that your body stays cool and your blood pressure is normal.

An active lifestyle is very important for being fit. Being active does not mean that you should go to the gym and start lifting heavyweights. It rather emphasizes on your daily routine and focuses on the bigger picture.
