How do you stay motivated to be fit?
To keep myself motivated, I note the things that might discourage me and then I find appropriate solutions. I ask myself
what my real reasons are for training and I set up the conditions in which I want to do exercise. I am not too demanding
with myself and I persevere, putting pleasure first in my physical activity.
How do you start running?
In the beginning, alternate between brisk walking and running intervals, paying attention to the quality of your stride and breathing to find the right pace. Once you have improved your cardio, incorporate acceleration into your sessions. Cross-training with strength training in addition to running is the fastest way to improve your fitness.
When can you say you are healthy?
The definition of health varies throughout life and depends on each person, their desires, their age, their experience, and
other factors. To remain in good health, we can take control of three elements: nutrition, sleep and physical activity. Well-
being and living conditions are also essential criteria for feeling good and being able to fulfil your dreams.
How do I stick to my training plan?
In order to stick to your training plan, you should write it down in your calendar and not deviate from it under any
circumstances. The training sessions should be integrated into your daily life. You can plan a backup slot or postpone a
session if necessary. Whatever your mood of the day, the content of the sessions can be adapted to your desires: the
important thing is to maintain this appointment with yourself at all costs in order to achieve your objectives!
How to return to physical activity smoothly?
When returning to exercise, think of it as one of the ways to feel good, along with diet and sleep. Redefine your goals, then fit your sessions into your schedule, allowing for a rest period of 2 or 3 days between the first workouts. Equip yourself and prepare for the first session the day before. All you have to do is put on your trainers!
How to compose a playlist for sport
To create the ideal playlist for sport, I stay close to the heart rate I want to achieve during training (calculated in BPM, for music as for sport). I rely on my taste in music, the lyrics that inspire me and the emotions I want to feel: concentration, fighting spirit, etc. I arrange the songs gradually, following the stages of my session.

What foods should I eat to control my cholesterol level?
To keep my cholesterol levels normal, I can do something about my diet. Olive oil and products rich in protective fatty acids
increase HDL levels, while certain foods such as nuts, soya and oats help to lower LDL levels. At the same time, I exercise
regularly to keep fit!
Why is sitting on the floor every day good for your health?
By sitting on the floor and standing up, I strengthen my core and leg muscles, work all my joints and improve my balance, mobility and coordination. The movements to do this safely are similar to squats and lunges, two very effective muscle strengthening exercises. I take advantage of this Zen position to meditate, relax and take some time for myself.
How do you limit menopausal stress?
