We all know that in concern to live a healthy life we can’t smoke, we need to remain at a healthy weight, workout and of course we need to eat healthy.

May sound simple, but I do know that is not that easy to break all of your rules and habits about your life; is like when you restart your PC- as you know, takes a while to be on again. Similar to my example, people do silly things when they want to give a restart to their life, they make drastic changes from the first minute and when they face the difficulties all the motivation is vanished and they just give up.

12. Learn how to breathe properly.

When my brother (professional football player) told me that I’m not breathing properly I was laughing, but after I realized that I’m just taking shallow breathes and breathe to 1/3 of our lung capacity and a full breath is one where your lungs are completely filled, your abdomen expands and there is minimum movement in your shoulders. That’s why football players can run for one hour and a half.

13. Improve your posture
