Staying Healthy In Utah

By Rey Vetangelo


It's time to get moving! Exercise is a key component to living a healthy, well-balanced life. The likelihood that you will need to have a lap band procedure, or weight loss surgery, decreases dramatically if you maintain a healthy exercise regimen.

Yoga should be relaxing but should also strengthen your body as well. The stretching and moving actually does several important things to your body. As you do balancing postures and focus on stretching you will find that your cardiovascular efficiency increases. Blood is spread much more equally around the body which opens up new doors to increasing your overall health.

Your muscles will not only get bigger but the strength that you gain will be practical and evenly distributed because you are balancing and stretching. This will make you much less prone to injury. Ultimately yoga helps you reach your bodies maximum level of health.

You can also make weekly activity goals; start out with extremely attainable goals to give you the confidence and ability to establish the habit. You can also choose fun activities to be active-dust off your golf clubs, or go on a hike and enjoy a healthy picnic in the mountains, or try a new activity.

Here are some great locations to get closer to Mother Nature and further away from bariatric surgery. The peak of Mount Timpanogos is one of the tallest in the entire state, with an elevation of 11,752 feet. Unless you are an experienced winter climber, it's best to hike this trail in the late spring, summer or early fall. The hike is about 14 miles round trip-so be prepared. Be sure to bring plenty of water, snacks, and sunscreen.

Just North of Moab, Utah, you'll find Arches National Park. It is home to more than 2,000 natural sandstone arches. There are hikes of various difficulty throughout the 76,000 acre park. An arch that shouldn't be missed is Delicate Arch, the arch featured on the Utah license plate. This 3-mile round trip hike is easy, but don't forget to put on sunscreen and bring water.

The second largest fresh-water lake in Utah, Bear Lake, lies along the Idaho-Utah border. Be sure to bring the whole family to enjoy the turquoise blue waters along the nearby mountains. This is a great summer destination to really enjoy nature while being active. With two beaches, and a number of marinas, it's a great location for swimming, fishing, wakeboarding, or water skiing.

When we are talking about the inner systems there are certain areas of the body that are directly targeted by yoga. Cholesterol, sodium, and glucose levels will decrease in the body and certain vitamins and minerals increase. This allows the body to function even better the next time.

No matter how tough you, old or young, in pain or just starting out with exercise, yoga is an opportunity to create a healthy sustainable future for your body. As more and more athletes turn to yoga to increase performance there will also be more people in the work force that do the same over time. It is becoming a fast trend in the United States and will continue to be one as people continue to see the overall benefits of it in their lives especially in helping them avoid the increasingly popular weight loss surgery.
