Don’t slack off over the holidays!. Learn how to stay in shape while still enjoying the holiday season.
Wonder why gyms are totally packed after New Year’s? Maybe it’s because everybody got lazy and unmotivated to keep up with their workouts during the holidays, and instead, packed on extra pounds with delicitions meals? Does travel, family obligations, and shopping keep you from your workouts, causing muscle loss and weight gain? Are you looking for ways to stay motivated during the holidays?
The good news – it doesn’t have to be this way. In fact, with the right program and proper planning, you can maintain your fitness levels while still enjoying time with the family.
Plan your training
There’s a saying in scuba diving – “Plan your Dive, and Dive your Plan” – and it can be changed to “Plan your Workout, and Work your Plan”. Plan your workout for a month in advance, and budget in your travel, shopping and family time. It’ll help you keep on track and not miss that all important workout!
Try working out early in the morning
Try an early morning workout, rather than in the evening. You’ll be surprised at the energy you’ll gain to get through the day, and if you are tired (and busy) once your work day is done, you won’t have to worry about trying to fit in that workout.
Find a workout buddy
If you have a commitment with another person to workout, you’re less likely to find an excuse to skip a workout. And, it’ll make your workouts more fun as well!
Measure your success!
Keep track of your goals and how you’re progressing against them. Success motivates – and lack of success can keep you motivated as well!
