A GREAT question has been brought up a lot lately...what is the difference between GOOD carbs and BAD carbs??

Carbohydrates are an essential part of a healthy diet, yet it’s important to know that not all of them are created equal. So how do you tell the difference between “good carbs” and “bad carbs?" The answer is both simple and complex.

Here’s everything you need to know about carbohydrates and making smart choices when it comes to incorporating them into your diet.

Carbohydrates, often referred to as just “carbs,” are your body's primary energy source, and are a crucial part of any well-balanced diet.

The three main types of carbohydrates are sugars, starches, and fiber. They're called “simple” or “complex” based on their chemical makeup and what your body does with them. But since many foods contain one or more types of carbohydrates, it can still be tricky to understand what’s healthy for you and what’s not.

Simple carbohydrates are composed of easy to digest, basic sugars, which can be an important source of energy. Some of these sugars are naturally occurring, such as those in fruits and in milk, while refined or processed sugars are often added to candies, baked goods, and soda.

Complex carbohydrates, found in whole grains, legumes, and starchy vegetables, contain longer chains of sugar molecules, which usually take more time for the body to break down and use.

Simple carbohydrates to limit in your diet include those found in:

*Soda
*Candy
*Cookies
*Pastries and desserts
*Sweetened beverages, such as lemonade or iced tea
*Energy drinks
*Ice cream

Nutrient-dense complex carbs that are part of a healthy, balanced diet include:

*Whole wheat breads, pastas, and flour
*Brown and wild rices
*Barley
*Quinoa
*Potatoes
*Corn
*Legumes, such as black beans, chickpeas, lentils, and others

Now that you know the difference, make sure to include more of those good carbs over those bad carbs. And you know where to find the best well balanced diet plans on the planet. QuickHIT FItness is here to help you reach your goals. Message us today!

WAIT, you can eat fats and still lose weight?!

That's correct.

There are Good Fats and there are Bad Fats.

Let me explain...

The word “fat” often has a negative connotation, but the body actually needs certain healthy fats to function properly. For example, fats are necessary to construct cell membranes, insulate nerves, and ensure that many vitamins including A, D, E, and K, work the way they should.

There are numerous types of fat, some good for us and some not. Scientific research about the health risks and benefits of fats is constantly evolving. The current evidence and guidance suggest we should focus our diet around consuming healthy fats and avoiding unhealthy fats.

Replacing some saturated fat from animal sources with healthy fat from plant sources can reduce LDL and triglyceride levels and your risk of cardiovascular disease.

There are easy steps to make these swaps. For example, instead of cooking your food in butter, opt for olive oil instead. Top a salad or sandwich with fresh avocado instead of bacon or cheese. Or choose peanut or almond butter to top whole-grain toast or a whole-wheat bagel, in place of butter or cream cheese.

And if you need a little help with your nutrition we are here for you! With the right guidance and meal plan design we can help you reach those goals! Our clients receive a weekly meal plan with the right amount of macro nutrients and calories they need to reach their success. Message us today and we will be happy to help!

STRESS. ANXIETY. LOW ENERGY.

Do any of these sound fun?! NO WAY! They are the enemy. During times like these, it's tough to avoid any of them. We get it.

But hey what if I told you there was a cure? Yes, you read that right.

And that magic cure........... is EXERCISE!

Not just any kind of exercise, but safe and effective strength training!

It is a FACT that exercise and other physical activity produce endorphins, or chemicals in the brain that act as natural painkillers, and also improve the ability to sleep, which in turn reduces stress.

About 30-40 minutes of effective strength training exercise can begin to stimulate anti-anxiety effects.

Which in turn gets rid of those enemies and turns them into Excitement, Fulfillment, and High Energy!

And if you need that effective plan...we are always here to help! Let us get rid of those enemies...TOGETHER!
