Jogging for Weightloss
Jogging carries all the benefits of
walking whilst having a greater impact. Whereas walking increases
the heart rate a little, burns a few calories and increases your
general fitness, jogging can have a much greater effect due to the
significantly increased pressure on the body to provide energy.
Weightloss portal
Sureshot Weight Loss tells us more about jogging for weight
loss.
Jogging is suitable for almost anybody, as you can make it as tough
or as gentle as you see fit. A gentle jog will increase the heart
rate and burn more calories than walking, whilst a brisk jog will
really get your heart going.
It is important to remember that, like walking, jogging is unlikely
to give you fast results if you are looking to lose weight. Whilst
it is true you are going to burn excess fat, you are going to also
be toning lower body muscles. This is great for improving fitness,
and you will feel the difference very early on, but you won’t be
dropping too many jean sizes anytime soon.
As jogging is much more physically exerting, it is very important
that you have comfortable trainers and take in plenty of fluids. You
will tend to sweat a lot whilst jogging, so it is important to
ensure you don’t dehydrate. It is also important to stretch before
and after jogging to avoid muscle injury.
Going for a jog a few times a week for as little as half an hour
will have you well on your way to a healthier lifestyle, and
requires little in the way of monetary investment other than a good
pair of trainers. It is also helpful if you can find a friend to
partner you, as the company will help spur you on and avoid boredom,
which is important if you intend to exercise regularly.

HOME DECOR
Spring Home Care – Revamp and
brighten your property this season with a few quick tips
(NC)—Spring has sprung! Along with
melting snow and blossoming flowers comes spring cleaning. We all
know that the garage must be cleaned, the hallway closet cleared of
mouldy mitts and muddy boots, and Christmas decorations returned
safely to the corner of the basement. Although we can all remember
to scrub the inside of our house, it's essential to take care of the
outside of our homes as well.
One section of your house exterior
that should not be forgotten is your outdoor lights. There are a
number of things you can do to revamp your current lighting system
to enhance the look of your home, and keep it safe during the spring
season.
• Before working with outdoor
lighting, be sure to turn off the supply outlet and unplug any
connections to electricity.
• To clean the existing bulbs, simply
wipe them down with a damp, lint free cloth.
• Try installing the Philips Duramax
Postlight, which is perfect for outdoor light fixtures. Its brass
base won't freeze or corrode and can be used for post lights, front
doors, driveways, porches, or garage entrances.
• With many new or renovated homes,
outdoor pot lights add a special glow to your exterior. Philips
offers Compact Fluorescent, incandescent and halogen outdoor
reflectors for these lights such as the Energy-saver Halogen Par38
floodlight.
• There are also ways of getting rid
of those pesky spring bugs as well. The Philips Bug-A-Way bulb can
be used in most covered outdoor fixtures and helps to repel a good
number of flying insects.
• If you plan to install new lights
for the spring season, make sure they are in a place where they
won't be damaged by lawnmowers or weed-whackers.
• Don't forget to clean up and update
your lighting at the cottage as well!
• While cleaning and updating your
exterior lighting this year, be sure to make a list of all outdoor
fixtures and their bulb type so that next year's task is that much
easier.
These simple tricks will lead to a
season full of lighting brilliance - after you have finished your
spring-cleaning.

the hair combed into soft waves and side curls, then left to dry

3. Fine, straight hair, lightly layered and cut close into the nape.
A root perm provides extra volume at the crown of the head. The hair
should then be finger dried using a styling mousse.

give extra interest and add thickness to finer hair.
