    The fitness project 2018 – Week 3 guideline

    Well, all talk about fitness is useless if it doesn’t make you rethink the way you are living your life. Its about paying attention to little things that matter and not just talking and googling carbs, protein, fat and calories.

    So here is the guideline for Week 3, this one may take you by surprise but not if you know me well.

    Guideline 3 – Rethink, reform and regulate the use of gadgets in your life.

    Why?

    The human head is heavy and we have spent months as babies learning to stabilise it. In a neutral position, ears above the shoulders, the head weighs about 5-6 kg. But then with just a 15 degrees tilt downwards it weighs more than double – about 15 kgs, at 30 degrees its 20kg and at 60 degrees its as much as 30 kgs. What do you think this is doing to your back, shoulders and even to the brain?

    Most of us want to let go off fat from our stomachs, sport flatter abs and have narrower waist, but its impossible with all that slouching and “technology posture” as it is called. The technology posture is that much more harmful for people dealing with diabetes, heart heart and other hormonal issues like PCOD and thyroid and it even interferes with the proper functioning of our adrenal glands and hampers cardio-respiratory processes.

    How?

    So from this week, you will take the first step to developing a strong back, flat stomach and a tall stance. This is what i want you to do –

    1. When eating meals, no gadgets – Start doing this at 1 meal a day and over the next 10 weeks, build it to all 3 main meals per day. Today when you fill your form, and don’t forget to do that – let me know which meal will you start this from – breakfast, lunch or dinner.
    2. Before going to bed, no gadget for 30 mins – So don’t delay bedtime, just keep the phone away, switch off your TV and read a book (not on kindle or iPad).
    3. When you do use the phone in the day, check for your posture – The correct way is to lift the phone at eye level and not to tilt the neck down. One of the things that this will do, is limit your phone usage to only the relevant and important issues as raising the phone doesn’t make for a good picture. 

    I know this is a tough one, but its worth doing. You have to follow this guideline, along with week 1 and 2 guidelines from hereon.
