5 TIPS TO STAY FIT OVER THE HOLIDAYS 2021
December can be a difficult month to stay in shape between all the holiday shopping and parties. 🎁🎄🥂 .
Here are five tips to help you stay focused and fit this holiday season.
1. Create a routine
This time of year is so busy that creating a workout schedule ahead of time is essential. In addition, you're more likely to work out when it becomes part of your daily routine. For example, have your leggings and sports bra laid out next to your bed the night before, so you're ready to go when you wake up in the morning. No excuses!
2. Find creative ways to be active
Sometimes exercise can feel like a chore when you put pressure on yourself to achieve a specific weight goal. However, it's essential to maintain the right mindset that even brief workouts can go a long way, both mentally and physically. All you need to do is carve out 30 minutes of your day to get active. Incremental short-term progress spells long-term success. You have to stay the course and trust the process.
3. Take more walks
If strenuous workouts are not your cup of tea, try implementing walks into your schedule. For example, a 30-minute walk in the morning or after dinner will relieve all of your holiday stress. It will enable you to spend time in nature to set your mind at ease.
4. Eat your veggies
Focusing on your diet and workout goals doesn't mean you have to deny yourself all of your favorite holiday foods and tasty treats.
Try incorporating more vegetables into your diet to ensure your body is still getting all the essential nutrients it needs. When you plan to indulge in those holiday foods, have smaller portions to satisfy your sweet tooth without going overboard.
