4 REASONS WHY YOU DO NOT PROGRESS IN SPORT ANYMORE

You feel like you are 100% active during your workouts and yet you have been stuck in sport for a while. As a result, you get frustrated, your motivation falls, and you look for miracle and extreme solutions. Rest assured, the changes to make can be very simple! A sports coach gives 4 reasons why you do not progress in sport anymore.



While you've finally found the right reasons to get back to sports (like binge-watchering your Netflix series from your gym bike) and the time to prepare healthy meals , you feel like you're no longer making progress.
At first, this is motivating because you see results on your body. But after a while, your progress in sports can slow down or even stagnate and it can be very frustrating even if you are the most patient person in the world.
There are some reasons that could be responsible for your stagnation. The sports coach , author and fitness influenceuse Zanna van Dijk explains everything.
You do not progress in sport because of your diet
  • You are depriving yourself too much of your diet
  • You are not honest with yourself
You do not recover enough after workouts
Stay in sport because of your training routine
"  It can be tempting to go to extremes when you start the sport , by removing carbohydrates, calories and severely restricting your portions.
Even if it allows for quick results, they will not last. And most importantly you will not be happy.
It's a lifestyle to adopt. You must always be able to eat in this way so that your results will last and last. Try to exercise some portion control and focus on moderation rather than deprivation. The slow, steady approach is not only more pleasant, but healthier. Believe me, your body will thank you for it. "
"You must be aware of your diet. Take the time to find out what a real portion is because it is often smaller than you think.
We can say that we ate healthy during the day avoiding the fact that we took three handfuls of granola in the box or a small cupcake in the afternoon.

We can also, unconsciously, consume hidden calories in certain foods or drinks. For example a latte topped with chocolate syrup can total more than 500 calories.
Sit down and be honest with yourself. What are you really eating? How many times do you actually train? Try to do more sports. Eat healthy and conscientiously. Set realistic and achievable goals that you can keep. "
"Achieving results is not just about how you eat and how you train. This is actually closely related to your recovery and your healthy lifestyle . Says Zanna van Dijk. 
"You need to make sure you get well after the sport , trying to reduce stress , stretching and sleeping.
If you do not allow your body to recover, it will not be fit, stronger or thinner. " 
"  If you do the same workouts for months, you need to change them as quickly as possible.
Your body is smart, it adapts to the way you train it. Try a new tempo, find new exercises and use different machines at the gym.
Be sure to change your workout routine every 4 to 6 weeks to ensure consistent results over time! "

10 practical tips to enrich your vocabulary in French

When you learn a language, especially at school, you study grammar rules and conjugations, you memorize sentences, and sometimes even lists of words.  But when speaking, you may feel that you can not express your ideas clearly.  We do not have enough words to say them or those we keep in mind are not useful for the context. For example, give an opinion on city traffic.  You know how to give your opinion, but you lack the proper vocabulary on this subject.  Imagine another situation that is less complicated and quite common.  After several hours of learning the French language, you want to explain one of your favorite recipes.  You have the verbs to enumerate the steps, but not the names of the ingredients.  Or, vice versa, you know the ingredients, but not the verbs.  So how can you enrich your vocabulary in a practical way, without necessarily creating and memorizing lists? Thanks to my experience as a French teacher, and also as a foreign l...
