#WisdomWednesday A group of scientists looked into how eating a morning meal before cycling for an hour would affect the body versus the effects of fasting before cycling. The findings reported in the American Journal of Physiology: Endocrinology and Metabolism indicate that eating first actually helps the body burn more carbohydrates during exercise. Not only that, but the study suggested that having breakfast before a morning cycle can actually also help digestion afte...r a workout. "We found that, compared to skipping breakfast, eating breakfast before exercise increases the speed at which we digest, absorb, and metabolize carbohydrate that we may eat after exercise."

Okay, so what if you find that the health benefits of exercise aren't enough to rouse you out of bed at the crack of dawn? What if part of your paycheck was on the line? You’re not going to miss that workout, right? Fitness accountability apps, like PACT and Diet Bet, allow participants to set a goal, and if it doesn’t get met, the participant has to part with cold hard cash. And because the payout is attached to your bank account, the idea of backing out is a lot less tempting. On the flip side, if you do meet your goal, you'll win it all back and then some! And it's not just a clever gimmick a study in the medical journal JAMA found that dieters with a financial incentive were more likely to eat right, exercise and lose weight! So come workout with us and think of how you're going to spend that money!

#WorkoutWednesday If you're feeling under the weather, exercise may not be the first thing you feel like doing. It's true that when your body's already under a lot of stress, making it do more work isn't always the best idea. However, mild to moderate physical activity is usually OK if you have a common cold and no fever. Exercise may even help you feel better by opening your nasal passages and temporarily relieving nasal congestion. Use the "neck rule." If your symptoms are above the necksneezing, sinus pressure, stuffy nosethen breaking a sweat is generally considered safe. Listen to your body, and consider the following best (and worst) workout options.

According to the National Sleep Foundation, it may be that the body-heating effects of exercise, especially when done in the afternoon or later, triggers an increase in body temperature, and the post-exercise drop in temperature may promote falling asleep. It may also reduce insomnia by decreasing arousal, anxiety and depressive symptoms. Insomnia is commonly linked with elevated arousal, anxiety, and depression, and exercise has strong effects on reducing these symptoms for most of us. Finally, exercise may reduce insomnia by its effects on our circadian rhythms (body clock). For people with insomnia due to the timing of their body clock, exercise may shift its timing depending upon the time exercise is performed.

#WisdomWednesday Your skin is your body's largest organ and is affected by many of your lifestyle habits and choices, including your workouts. Exercise helps to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the skin by getting the heart rate up and improving blood circulation, which keeps the skin healthy. It also promotes collagen production and new skin cells which gives the skin a glow and is also helpful for anti-aging. Sweating from exercise opens up pores and releases toxins inside, as long as you make sure to clean your skin prior to exercise removing anything that can potentially clog the pores, such as makeup or other skin-care products.
