Fitness expert, Sloan Luckie, shares his latest quick exercise and food tips for optimal health.
Luckie’s Exercise Tip: Running Crunch
BENEFITS
- Tones abs and obliques (muscles along sides of torso)
- Builds core ( abs/lower back)
HOW TO DO
1. Sit on buttocks and lean back until abs are fully contracted.
2. With legs in mid-air and knees slightly bent, balance on the space between your buttock/tail bone. This is the starting position.
3. In a running motion, raise right knee while swinging left arm, then raise left knee while swinging right arm. That is one rep.
Luckie’s Food Tip: Pistachios
BENEFITS
- Great source of fiber to assist with satiety (feeling full)
- Good source of heart healthy unsaturated (“good”) fats
- Solid source of Omega 3
- A recent study has shown that nuts may assist in reducing the risk of late life Alzheimer’s
HOW TO CONSUME: Use raw nuts. Consume handful for snack and/or add handful to cereal.
For optimal fitness results, balance exercise with healthy nutrition and high quality sleep.
