Facts About Cardio

- LISS is low intensity steady state. This is something like walking, spinning, elliptical, or something slower that keeps your heart rate steady. - MISS is medium intensity steady state. This is something like stairs, jogging, or something that is faster that keeps your heart rate steady. - HIIT is high intensity interval training. This is something like sprints, ropes, circuts, or anything that gets your heart rate to 80-90% of max, then goes back down. The intervals are your high and low heart rate. If you are doing HIIT correctly, your high intensity interval will only last a max of 30 seconds if you are truly going all out. - Cardio is a TOOL to help you get into a calorc deficit. Therefore it is useful when trying to lose weight, because it will be another way to get into a deficit without cutting out more calories. But this also means it can be counterintuitive if you are trying to build muscle, because you need to be in a surplus to gain muscle. - Each of these forms of cardio will cause you to burn calories. This being said, it will take longer to burn 300 calories doing LISS than it would doing HIIT. But if you prefer one to the other, you can still burn the same amount of calories. - It does not matter when you do your cardio. Like mentioned, cardio is a tool to help you get into a deficit. It does not matter if you burn 300 calories in the morning or 300 calories at night, by the end of the day, you will have a 300 calorie deficit. There is no magic window that you will “burn more fat” if you do fasted cardio. But hey, if you like doing your cardio in the morning, do it, but you can get the same results at any point in the day.

- Cardio is good for your overall cardiovascular health and mental health. But do not abuse it, enjoy it and use it to reach your goals.

The following is a list of methods of grounding. There are two basic types of grounding, mental and physical. Mental Grounding • Describe your environment in detail using all of your senses. • Think of your favorites, such as favorite ice cream, color, animal, place… • Remember a safe place, describing it in detail. • Remember the words to a favorite song. • Repeat a favorite saying over and over again such as, “the serenity prayer” or “the 23rd Psalm”.

Physical Grounding • Run cool or warm water over your hands • Grip something tightly • Stretch • Touch various objects around you • Carry a grounding object in your pocket such as a small stone or a piece of jewelry. The following is a small list of affirmations: • I love the child I was and the child I am. • I love myself. • I trust I am capable. • I deserve self respect. • I am free to be me; this too shall pass. • I am resourceful. • I have the courage to explore my shadow side. • I can do whatever I set my mind to. • I fill my mind with peaceful thoughts. • I take time to open my heart to rainbows. • I have courage to focus on beauty even in the midst of pain. The following is a list of common cognitive distortions: 1. All or nothing thinking – The tendency to categorize things into black and white, absolute extremes, such as good or bad, success or failure. 2. Overgeneralization - Making an overall conclusion based on only one piece of evidence. 3. Mental Filter – The tendency to pick out selective details of a situation and focus on them to the exclusion of other relevant aspects of the situation. Example: several people give you positive feedback but you dwell only on the one negative comment. 4. Rose colored glasses – A type of mental filter where you delete any negative aspects of your reality leading to suppressed sadness. 5. Magnification – The tendency top exaggerate things way out of proportion 6. Catastrophizing – An extreme form of magnification where one sees the worse possible outcome of any situation. 7. Minimization – The tendency to shrink things or downplay their importance. Example: I only have a couple of drinks when I go out. 8. Discounting the positive – A form of minimization where you believe your own good qualities or accomplishments don’t count. 9. Mind reading – assuming what others are thinking or feeling without checking it out first 10. Fortune telling – is when you predict the future will turn out negative, based on your own fears or negative thoughts 11. Emotional reasoning – Using emotion feelings to prove a certain irrational thought. Example: I feel terrible and nothing will ever get better. 12. Bodily reasoning – A bodily feeling proves an irrational belief. Example: The arousal means I’m dirty and shameful. 13. Should statements – unrealistic and perfectionist rules you set that make it difficult to live in the real world. “must, have to, ought, and need to” can be distorted too. Example: I should have stopped the abuse. 14. Labeling – Using emotionally charged words to describe yourself or someone else. 15. Personalizing – The tendency to bale yourself unnecessarily for something you are not totally responsible for 16. Blaming – Making someone else or certain circumstances responsible for choices or decisions that are actually your own responsibility.

If you want to better yourself, that is okay. If you are the negative, toxic person, it is okay to want to change. It is okay to work on yourself in order to become a better version of you. It’s great that you’re realizing your faults, and are taking responsibility. It is okay.
