What are the best foods to eat when looking for protein?

Believe it or not protein is really good for you!

You can try it by adding some extra protein to your meals. Give yourself a week, boosting protein gradually.

Examples are.. Eggs, fish, seafood, lean beef, skim/low fat milk, and skim yogurt.

It is important to eat the right amount of protein to get life long weight loss results.

Some exercises you can do at home are, climbers, crunches, stairs, and sports.

Try taking every other step in stairs to get a better workout.

During commercials while watching TV do crunches instead of sitting on the couch.

You can do almost every freehand exercise at home rather than the gym, like toning exercises.

You can do pushups every night before bed to build chest and arm definition and muscle.

Pushups are one of the best exercises for the human body and can be done almost anywhere. You can do a wide-stance squat where you stand with feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and toes pointed out to 10 o’clock and 2 o’clock. Then you slowly lower for two counts into a squat position. Hold the squat for one count, then straighten your legs for two counts to go back to the starting position. You can also do an exercise called the inner-thigh press. in which you lie on your back on a mat, bend your knees so that the soles of your feet are flat on the floor. Place a medium rubber ball (or a knotted beach towel) between your knees. Contract your inner thighs to squeeze the ball for 30 seconds. Relax for 10 seconds, then repeat the cycle four more times. Also, to work your legs, you can do a leg drop in which you raise both legs toward the ceiling. Breathe in and tighten your abs. Then, exhale and slowly lower your legs until they’re about four inches above the floor (or as low as you can go without lifting the small of your back). Pause and breathe in. Breathe out as you raise your legs to the starting position. Repeat 10 times.
