Music and work out.

October 6th, 2010

I was just checking out for the lady gaga concert tickets online when I thought about the benefit of music while working out.We were often told that slow and meditative music are very relaxing and reduces stress. But the benefit of fast paced music like techno or dance music weren’t given the same hype.

A study found that the music with fast tempo and complex rhythms increases circulation whereas slower and meditative music gives the opposite effect. (thehealthierlife.co.uk/natural-health-articles/heart-disease/music-good-for-heart-00806.html)

Therefore even if you are not so much of a fast paced music fan , while you are working out, the best music you should  listen to is techno or dance music because it will help increase the workout performance. Help burn more calories.

The coffee addict.

October 5th, 2010

I don’t think I have a serious coffee drinking problem like some people I know. I only drink 3-4 cups a day compared to some who can drink up to 8 cups a day. But I am still considered a coffee addict never the less. I can hardly go without coffee even a day.

Just as you can find many articles about diet pills – phentermine, apidexin, lipovox, etc – you can also find plenty of articles relating to the advantages and disadvantages of drinking coffee. Too many that I don’t know which one to believe. Whether it’s bad to drink too much of coffee or it’s good to drink a lot of coffee.

Nevertheless, regardless of what is the truth, one thing I believe, too much of anything can be a bad thing. So I’m trying to lessen my coffee intake. Not totally stop like what some people suggested me to. Perhaps it would even do me good. It would be worth the try.
