Music Motivation Monday.

"If you had one shot, one opportunity, to seize every thing you've ever wanted, would you capture or would you just let it slip?!."

- Eminem
('Lose Yourself")

For years, and probaly centuries, music has been used to join in community with others ! Music and exercise have been used to bring more sweat in our fitness classes and workouts, raise our heart rates to an anerobic fat-burning cardio zone {without question}, as well as create an overall mind-body balance.

Have you ever received or sent a mix-tape to some one? Have you ever added a song to your workout playlist because it gave you so much 'I Can!' motivation? Have you ever dedicated or listened to a song that gave you an 'emotional-soulful' memory of an experience, time and/or person? Or you flatout, know every word to a particular song(s) because it just CONNECTS to YOU !

As side from 35 mins of physical exercise 5 days a week, listening daily to atleast 60mins of music has be known to help regular the rate of a healthy heart rate. Combine that with a healthy balance of proper-portion eating and you got yourself a healthy-strong-intune-lifestyle !

{How to Calculate Your Target Heart Rate}

• Take your pulse on the inside of your wrist, on the thumb side.
• Use the tips of your first two fingers (not your thumb) to press lightly over the blood vessels on your wrist.
• Count your pulse for 10 seconds and multiply by 6 to find your beats per minute. You want to stay between 50 percent to 85 percent of your maximum heart rate. This range is your target heart rate.
