RIO Fitness Chicago® Tip:

Not seeing results with exercise/nutrition? How stressed out are you? High stress raises levels of cortisol which is the body fat production hormone. Start paying attention if there is a pattern each day of when you get most stressed. That way instead of dealing with the stress by eating/drinking alcohol/smoking, you can go for a walk/go get a drink of water/go to a quiet place to gather yourself for 10-15mins. Fitness is not just a lean & tone body, but it's also a healthy mind.
