So we are almost halfway through May already and no doubt people will be turning their heads towards the impending summer. We pray that it will be sunny and hot. But with those soaring temperatures we know that our bodies must look the part; it is time to get fit and here at the Advertiser we provide tips on how to battle the bulge and tone that tóin.
1 Stop making excuses
The only person who can get you fit is yourself. Fight the temptation to go for that pizza or takeaway. Do not use the weather, your social life, or your laziness as an excuse to miss out on a training session. Get to the gym.
2 Keep it simple
Avoid having a complicated workout plan. Squats, pull ups, and push ups plus a good cardio programme that you like will allow you to see results and enjoy going to the gym three or fours times a week.
3 Make goals
Going to the gym can be a grind so having a goal to work for can be the boost to get you out of bed in the morning or help you go to the gym after work. Remember small goals to start as you do not want to dishearten yourself at the beginning of your fitness crusade by failing to reach your targets.
4 Treat yourself
And when you hit your target, it is important to reward yourself; be it with a new pair of jeans or a delicious pizza. If you worked out hard, then you have earned it.
So there you have it. Time to get to the gym.
