A NEW YEAr - A NEW YOU!
I
t’s the season for new beginnings and resolutions! Now let’s be honest, people stick to New Year resolutions for a matter of weeks and then the spring in the step disappears and determination fades. Don’t let that happen to you again this year. “Getting fit and losing weight” is one of the top New Year’s Resolutions each year. To help you with the New You this year, let’s start with “Getting Fit”. Say goodbye to last year’s exercise habits and boring routine, and welcome in the New Year full of enthusiasm with your fitness goals. Here are a few tips to help you keep your New Year’s Getting Fit Resolution all year long. • Hire a personal trainer to get you started or to mix up your old routine for a new one • Set realistic goals for yourself that will not set yourself up for failure • Join the gym with a friend, you can help motivate each other • Make yourself a priority so you don’t skip your workouts
Next let’s discuss that dreaded issue… “Losing Weight. This is one of the most popular goals among the majority of us. It’s always on our minds, especially during the holiday season and well into the New Year. Most people do not realize how to properly “Diet”. One of the biggest mistakes made when dieting is to consume only one or two meals a day. They feel by starving themselves, they will melt away fat quickly. This is a very big mistake! When you go without eating for more than a few hours you are lowering your metabolism so your body can conserve its energy for normal cellular activity. What is often one of the main goals we are trying to accomplish when we are working so hard in the gym? You are trying to burn calories by increasing our metabolism. When you don’t eat, your metabolism lowers and you won’t be burning calories. When your metabolism is working your body will be more efficient at burning calories even at rest! So don’t skip meals….eat little healthy meals
several times throughout the day roughly every 3 hours for the most effective weight loss. How many of you have been cutting meals for years and how many of you are at your goal weight? Now you know why. For more information on how to get started on the “New You for the New Year”, come in to Body Dynamics or call 727-347-4445. Happy New You!
