Time to Start Work on Your Summer Body

They say that summer bodies are made in winter. But over the winter it is often the way that people make a few too many bad decisions when it comes to food. Not only that but millions of us drop the workouts in favor of slouching around the house in baggy sweats.

The comes the New Year, where alongside finally stopping biting your nails, researching online nurse practitioner programs, and throwing away all the junk food – you vow to get healthy.

There are a couple of things that you can do to get your body ready to go hard.

Doctors

If you haven’t been working out for a while, or maybe never at all, you need to head t your GP and get the once over. Generally, there are very few people that can’t do a full-blown workout if they start out nice and easy and with a professional.

Routine

Don’t try and go all gung ho if you know that you can only truly commit to 4 days a week. Setting yourself up for failure isn’t going to see you making this a real lifestyle change. Look at your current schedule and pick what is realistic.

Professional

Gyms are filled with people that have been training their whole lives to help other people train properly too. They will be able to write you a workout that will target the areas that you have been most interested in improving. Even if you just want to be able to run a little longer, they can help you do it.

They will help you set realistic, achievable goals too.

You might like to book in a couple of classes or a session or two a week with a personal trainer. Either way, there are professionals around, and you should make the most of your membership and use them.

Second Routine

Work with a professional here to get the second essential routine together. Many people get really bored after only a few weeks. If you have a trainer on board, they can keep your routine fresh and impactful. Get them to teach you proper posture and use of the machinery to really get the most from the workout.

Nutrition

After all of those months of carby dinners and a bit too much cream, kicking your eating habits into shape might not be easy, but you have to fuel your body correctly now. Think about what you will be using for your nutrition pre-workout. Maximizing your protein intake is going to see you be able to put n a killer performance.

Have a healthy balance pre-workout meal around an hour before you hit the gym. You don’t want to be digesting as you are on the rowing machine.

Log it

Keeping track of your progress will see you push yourself even further. So make sure you are keeping a log of all of your progress, and make a big deal of it when you reach your goals.

A summer body isn’t out of reach if you are dedicated and willing to put in the time.
