Get That Bikini Body For Summer
The weather has hinted at summer and then the sun disappeared again, however there’s no doubt it will be back at some point. In the mean time it’s worth taking the opportunity to commit to a fitness regime and get toned ready for when the swimsuits are donned. After Christmas and winter pass it’s probably fair to say everyone wishes they were a bit fitter and somewhat firmer. Working out can also do wonders for your confidence, giving you that attractive self-assurance while you sunbathe on the beach or catch some rays in the park.
The only sure way to get into shape is to devise an exercise routine and stick to it. Even if on most days in the week you only workout for fifteen minutes, as long as you keep this up and do it regularly you will see a physical improvement. It’s a great idea to make push-ups a staple fixture of your exercise regime as they work the whole body – your arms, abs, chest, back, bum and legs are all put through strain when you do push-ups. Similarly, swimming is also a great way to exercise your whole body.
Improving your diet on a day-to-day basis is a great way to get into shape, and coupled with a regular workout routine is a guaranteed route to that fitter and firmer summer body. Eating your five fruit and vegetables a day, swapping junk food like biscuits and crisps to snack on an apple, orange or banana instead is a good habit to get in. Also try eating salad at lunch rather than a high-carb meal like sandwiches, bagels and baguettes. If you fill up on healthy fruit and vegetables you are less likely to eat too much for dinner.
In order to avoid over eating at your evening meal time you can drink a glass of water. Often people think they are hungry when they are in fact thirsty so by beginning your meal with a quenched thirst you are less likely to over eat. Another positive practice to get into is wear a pair of well fitted trousers and as soon as your stomach starts to push out against the waist line it’s time to stop eating.
In your everyday routine try to incorporate some subtle exercises, for example walk to work or to the shops instead of driving. If the distance is too far to walk, run or drive and park further away so you get a little bit of exercise walking into the office. Rather than taking the lift use the stairs. Do some bum clenches while at your desk. Increase your general activity in your daily routine and keep it regular and you will see a marked improvement. Soon you’ll have that firm body ready for when the sun’s out.
