How One Glass Of Wine Affects Your Body

March 30, 2021 Shana Thompson

Over the years, there has been conflicting information on the health benefits of drinking a glass of wine, red or white. One year it’s good for you and then the following year there’s new studies that say it’s bad for you. So which is it? As always the truth tends to be a bit more complicated than you might read or hear on the news.

Are there benefits to drinking red wine? Yes. Are there drawbacks? Also, yes. Ultimately, it’s up to you to decide whether the benefits outweigh the risks of drinking alcohol. If you do plan on partaking in some wine, it’s best to drink in moderation. That means one glass (150 ml) for women and two glasses (300 ml) for men at most. Drinking this moderate amount can give you the health benefits while potentially decreasing the drawbacks. Still, abstaining from alcohol doesn’t increase your overall risks. More importantly, you should consider your overall diet and health. An unhealthy lifestyle can outweigh the benefits you could gain from drinking a daily glass of wine.

March 15, 2021 Jessica Lauren

Consider combining both movement-based and stability-based exercises, as described above, as you design your own functional ab core workout. This combination will best replicate the movements you need to make in your day-to-day activities. Remember, your core is constantly at work, whether that’s through dynamic motion or isometrics. Even something as simple as lifting your groceries and loading them into your car requires core strength.

A circuit-style workout that incorporates all of these exercises above, ideally with a 40-seconds-on and 20-seconds-off approach will give your body the workout it needs coupled with the rest it deserves. That way, you can work as hard as possible during those 40 seconds without getting overly fatigued.

You can even couple these exercises with a solid strength training or cardio routine, helping you to torch calories and lose weight while you’re at it!
