eHow.com presents "Living Healthy with Curves"

eHow™ and Curves® have partnered to help you and the women in your life take control of your weight and health! Boost Your Metabolism Through Exercise The best way to boost your metabolism - and maintain good health - is to combine strength training and cardio training into your exercise routine. Building muscle helps your body burn more calories during resting periods, and cardio activity burns calories and builds a stronger heart and lungs. Stop Dieting and Start Eating Healthy Diets that deprive you of certain foods also deprive you of the nutrients contained in those foods. So instead of the constant yo-yo dieting, try a balanced diet of proteins and carbohydrates, limiting your intake of refined carbs and sweets. This will help boost your metabolism, and help you stay on track. Get Started Already! You'll never shed those unwanted pounds or improve your health if you don't start. To help jump-start eHow Members, Curves is offering one week FREE to try out their total body fitness and nutrition solution, with no contracts and no commitments. So what are you waiting for?
