Adding Star Power To Fuel Your Day
(NAPSA) - Looking radiant and keeping in step with a tightly packed schedule are musts for on-the-go celebrities, but most of us who long for the same sense of well-being don't have personal trainers and stylists.
Fortunately, it doesn't take star power to make healthy lifestyle changes. In fact, a brisk walk at lunch can quickly put one on the path to fitness. Research shows that three or more 10-minute bouts of exercise throughout the day can boost calorie burn as effectively as a traditional 30-minute session.
Try these additional tips from ZonePerfect(r) All-Natural Nutrition Bars for staying celebrity fit and keeping energy levels high:
- High-Profile Hydration - Stars don't just sip champagne, they drink plenty of water, too. Embrace your inner-celebrity activist and carry water infused with fresh mint sprigs or lemon slices in a reusable stainless steel bottle.
- Sunset Blvd. Sleep Habits - Catch six to eight hours of sleep per night and go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, even on at weekends. A sleep cycle with regular rhythm promotes better rest and relaxation.
- Body Beautiful - On-the-go eating is often a must, whether you're on the set of a movie or heading out to enjoy a film or music festival. Opt for nutritious snacks, such as new ZonePerfect Dark Chocolate Nutrition Bars. A therapeutic bonus: Dark chocolate can evoke pleasurable emotions and reduce stress.
