 With
a few simple ingredient substitutions, you can turn any
pizza recipe into a healthy recipe full of nutrition. A
homemade pizza will always be better for you than
delivery when it includes a healthy pizza dough; smart
pizza sauce choices; and lean, nutrient-rich toppings.
This week we bring you, Top 10 to a Heart-Healthy Pizza
Meal.
This week, Women Fitness team covered an interview with
Maria Valentina Vezzali, Six times Olympic gold medalist
in fencing. According to Maria, women should do a lot of
sport. "A sound mind in a healthy body. There is no age
limit for sports and to follow a healthy diet."

 Rope
climbing is quite a tough exercise for the abdominal
muscles. Start by lying on your back on the floor.
Contract your stomach muscles so that you start to roll
up until you are about halfway to a sitting position,
knees bent, arms outstretched in front of you. Loosely
clench you fists, then raise one arm above your head.
Lower this arm again and, as you do so, raise the other
one. This movement looks as if you are pulling on a
rope. If the stomach muscles start to bulge out or
quiver, stop. Try again and repeat for 8-10 pulls.

Life's Energy is What You Make it
 Anyone
who knows the basics of sailing can maneuver their boat
to the desired destination, regardless of the wind
direction. The ability to adjust the sails
appropriately, and the amount of wind, are of far
greater importance than the wind's direction.
Winners and achievers in life know how to use all of
life's energy -- the tail winds and the head winds -- to
move ahead toward goal achievement. Fear gives us the
heightened sense of awareness necessary for taking on
difficult situations. Challenges give us superb
opportunities for learning and growing. Setbacks and
obstacles strengthen our resolve and determination. That
is, if we decide to take them that way.
You can't control the wind, but you can control how to
set your sails. You can't control what life hands
you, but you have complete control over what you do with
it. Fear can blow you off course -- or they can supply
the energy to propel you ahead.
It all depends on you.

 "It is determination and the will to win what causes a decision to be taken, even if you're tired, you never have to give up until the last point, the competitor has not yet won, and that is the competition."

 Pizza has often been classified as a junk food. Making your own pizza at home is a great way to slash calories and fat as well as add some serious flavor and nutrients by selecting your own fresh toppings.
All the basic ingredients of pizza have a healthy potential. It's only when you go overboard on toppings or the amount you eat that pizza turns into an unhealthy food option.
