It is widely known that aerobic exercise is needed to eliminate body fat. However it is unclear how much of this cardio is needed to flatten the stomach. Then there is the question ... How much cardio do to eliminate belly fat? How do you know if you're not doing too much, or else you are doing too little?
It is not really an easy answer to give. And while all cardiovascular activities burn body fat, the truth is that it is virtually impossible to determine specifically how many cardio sessions you need to get a flat stomach.
However, there are some factors that will enable us to realize how much we need aerobic exercise:
1. How much fat you need to delete. If you have 5 kilos probably relatively faster delete it if you need to remove 15 or 20 kilos of fat.
2. Your choices for cardio. Not all fat-burning aerobic exercise at the same radio. Some are naturally more intense than others. In general, involving the entire body are more demanding than those that do not involve full. So you can go running, swimming, kickboxing, rowing ...
3. How hard you train in each session. This is a game of calories. It always is. And the greater the training intensity will burn more calories, faster, manage to lose weight and get fitter you'll get ...
4. Rest in your routine is also important. Do not be fooled by the above. While we must train hard proper rest is extremely important, but what he achieved would be the opposite of our goals.
Basically, the speed at which you burn fat is determined by these factors: how you do aerobic exercise, what exercises you choose and how hard you exercise.
Personally I put my attention in exercise intensity. If you train hard and eat well you will get results fast, and healthy.

Parents and educators should review the dietary habits of children
Alarmingly high levels of incidence are approaching the problem of obesity among adolescents and children. In less than two decades, as reflected the figures from the Ministry of Health, Spain has tripled their numbers as far as children and young people (2-24 years) are concerned, drawing to an obesity rate of 13 , 9%, and another 12.4% this refers to overweight. Also, while in this age group the prevalence of obesity is higher among men (15.6%) than women (12%), the highest figures are found in prepuberty and in particular in the age group 6-12 years, with a prevalence of 16.1%. All these figures place our country at the top in Europe as far as incidence of obesity and overweight concerns.
With this backdrop, when addressing the main reasons that may have led to this situation must be taken into account, without doubt, a major food shortage. Therefore, and starting the analysis for breakfast, it appears that this first meal of the day is devoted entirely insufficient time. According to the study enKid, managed by the Ministry of Health, 6.2% of Spanish children and young people do not usually eat breakfast, there is a clear link between this poor eating habits and obesity. To this must be added the fact that, according to that study, nearly 60% of children engaged in the breakfast within 10 minutes, which is associated with low nutritional quality. On the other hand, the National Health Survey also found that only 7.5% of children take a balanced breakfast consisting of milk, fruit or juice and carbohydrates. By contrast, 19.3% of the children and young people only drink a glass of milk and 56% only accompanied by a carbohydrate.
Also, the other meals are not much more advantageous, considering social and educational context in which children spend many hours a day (three according to recent studies) in front of the TV or computer, and eat in a long time less than a few years ago, either at home or at school. In fact, the importance of time and the quality of food, are key preventive factor for obesity and overweight children and adolescents. At this time, traditional diets have been replaced by others with a higher energy density, which means more fat, mainly of animal origin, more added sugar in food, coupled with a decreased intake of complex carbohydrates and fiber .
To give some examples, the percentage of obese children Valencia has risen from 5% to 16.1%, according to the Ministry of Health. In the case of Murcia, the Child Care Plan for Adolescents in the Region, nearly three out of 10 (26%) of children aged 2 to14 years of Murcia are overweight or obese.
From the Institute of Obesity want to make a special emphasis on the need for education on dietary habits of children as the best way to tackle the course, without forgetting that a balanced diet is important in all stages of life, but especially, if possible, during the development of children. So must focus from the outset by a varied and balanced diet. In this sense, cereals, potatoes, fruit or vegetable has to be among the foundations of a proper diet, moderate fat intake, especially of animal origin, and sugar. All this without forgetting the importance of physical exercise as a factor in development at these ages.
A sedentary lifestyle also influences childhood obesity. 45 percent of Spanish parents said their children spend more than two hours daily to passive forms of entertainment such as watching television, playing games or being on the computer, according to results of a study by the Foundation from more Alimentum 1,500 parents from across Spain.
For communities, 72 percent of children Murcia spends over two hours to "sedentary leisure, followed by La Rioja, with 60 percent and 56 percent of Catalonia. At the other extreme, children spend less time in this type of entertainment are the Balearic Islands (20%), Basque (28%) and residents in Castile and León (28%).
Food habits, 70 percent of Andalusian and Castilian-La Mancha say instill healthy habits to their children early, but the current lifestyle or certain foods that do not like the younger ones do it "more difficult." Parents of Baleares and the Basque Country are the least aware, since only 40 percent of them emphasizes nutrition education for their children.
Dr. Adelard Caballero, director of the Institute of Obesity, has a degree in Medicine and Surgery, General Surgery specialist Digestive and Organ Transplantation, Chief Resident of General Surgery and Gastroenterology of the Hospital Universitario de La Princesa, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. It is one of the pioneers in the use of the intragastric balloon for treatment of obesity in Spain, introducing more than 1,000 in the last five years, with very good results. He has also done over 500 speeches gastrectomy.

How to achieve your goals with Kundalini Yoga meditation
One of the most powerful tools of Kundalini Yoga is Meditation, has several functions such as cleaning our unconscious, contact our "best self" but especially the achievement of several of our goals, and learn here. QU IS "Meditation?: Yogi Bhajan (who brought this yoga to the West) said that meditation is like the garbage truck, for its purifying power is great, because all thoughts clean junk from our unconscious, that is all the thoughts that are there and we are useless, then already we have achieved this through a prolonged period of meditation is practiced it with mantras (sound power) they will begin to be implemented in our unconsciously sowing the seeds of awareness, clarity and high thinking, another way on how meditation can be understood as follows: CMC WORK?: Our mind releases thousands of thoughts through the subconscious, passing them to the conscious, then skyrocket emotion and emotion triggered the reaction, this is the process that Patanjali (One of the first yogis) describes about how the mind works.
THE THREE MINDS: For Kundalini Yoga humans have three types of minds that are: Positive Mind, the Mind and the Mind Negative Neutral, these three minds are part of the selection process that liberates the subconscious thoughts.
Negative Mind: The mind has a very important role in humans, is the survival mechanism of self-protection, prevention. Its function is thought that when this happens is mind that has all the potential difficulties posed this thought to the reality of that person, and this is very necessary. When the thought arises and before it is manifested in action, we need the ability to discriminate and see what is going to be the result of the action that triggered this thought before implementing it.
Positive Mind: The Mind does the opposite. It raises opportunities, see the results, looks to the future, projects and this is also necessary because it did not have the capacity to make mental projection, we would be in the same place, so that a positive mind gives us the ability to plan, imagine, visualize, we launch into that goal. Neutral Mind: the mind is intuitive, wise and balanced mind which is not involved, a witness who observes impartially. No sequence of thought until you succeed this state neutral and balanced. Mind it also represents service, humility and compassion.
The positive and negative minds must be in balance. When a thought arises, the subconscious mind is going to take it, the negative mind is going to evaluate it as a positive mind, this can create a balance so that we can discriminate that thought and then our neutral mind can act through intuition to guide us consciously made the right action to the impulse of thought. There are many individuals whose dominant negative mind or whose mind is weak positive, and vice versa, as well as emotions play an important role. That is why having the constant practice of meditation to develop the Neutral Mind is the wise mind that we correctly guide to achieving what we want and even show us what is right and what is not desirable because it is not convenient our personal growth.
The practice of Kundalini Yoga includes meditation, there are thousands of them to achieve many things such as meditation to achieve great strength, meditation for a peaceful heart, focus and sweetness Meditation, Meditation for completely neutralizing the tension, have nerves Meditation strong, Meditation for a healthy personal identity, to balance the Chakras Meditation, and finally a very large number of meditations.

How to handle emotions with Kundalini Yoga
It was recently discovered in the world of scientific psychology that emotions play a role in human behavior, they determine much of what we are and much of what we do and how we do it. Kundalini Yoga is a deep and effective way to reach what is called Emotional Intelligence term created by author Daniel Goleman, known here as.
Emotions:
The word emotion comes from Greco-Latin roots: e = go movere = made, or "go to", so, emotions lead us to act a certain way, think, when you are angry as you behave when you are sad or when you're happy?. That is why today they are given such importance.
The help of Kundalini Yoga:
This yoga works deep in the brain and throughout our nervous system through very powerful tools, these tools foster welfare states, peace, relaxation, sensitivity, intelligence and creativity. In my case if I am depressed, tired, in a word undergoing a range of emotions of so-called negative energy, what I do is make me aware that I am breathing nostril and nasal cavity consciously change if the state continues to prefer a high in what you are doing and make a brief session of pranayama
(Number of breaths), it persists the state, which never happened, but can happen, then I would suffice to make a 5 minute meditation. very powerful and would end the state.
Discipline:
The emotions of negative energy are those that are not conducive to my growth but I stopped eg pessimism, pity, envy, insecurity, shame, guilt, resentment, bitterness, etc., The Kundalini Yoga are handled through the disciplined practice, Yogi Bhajan (who brought this yoga to the West) as saying: "Without discipline, no gain .....".
How to do it:
I assure you that if you learn this yoga and daily practice, very quickly the pain will leave all your life is to practice one day if the other also. It starts slowly and guided by a teacher-adviser that is required is a real desire to eradicate the pain of negative emotions in our lives
