Lifestyle Tips for a Fit Summer

Hydrate.

Adequately hydrating is key. Of course, water is important for the internal organs, but it’s also important to combat issues like cellulite.

Tip: Keeping up with the eight glasses a day minimum also leaves the stomach feeling full throughout the day – a simple way to cut down on snacks.

Caution with the alcohol.  

The creeping calories that are in alcohol and other sugary drinks can add up quickly and unsuspectingly. Oftentimes, people are not aware of how much caloric damage the drinks cause. Overindulging in alcohol and carbonated drinks also give a bloating effect. The many delicious substitutes available include flavor packets with low-carbohydrate counts and low sugar that taste great and easily mix with water.

Tip: Cut out items that you won’t miss. Keep in mind that an action such as cutting out soda from your diet completely can have the best and fastest results. 

Maximize workouts.

Do a little research to be sure workouts are done properly and with the desired number of repetitions in order to achieve the best results. Personal trainers, fitness magazines, websites and exercise forums are all great sources.

Tip: The best way to burn fat is to implement workouts that involve both cardio and weight training. However, weight training should be done in the beginning of the workout with cardio following for more effective fat burning.

Incorporate fitness throughout your day.

The most time-strapped women can find inventive ways to keep the calories burning. Become familiar with effective, office-appropriate workouts like sitting at your desk with an exercise ball, various stretches, and desk-modified push-ups. Also, skip the heavy lunch and add a brisk walk to your mid-day schedule.

Tip: The right footwear will promote fitness as well as support full-on workouts and the busiest 12-hour days on the go. Therafit Footwear offers stylish designs and are great for minimizing hard impacts and the resulting body aches and pains. Accredited by the National Posture Institute, these shoes feature a patented system of removable adapters in the soles, giving you personalized comfort and support.

Get plenty of rest.

Several studies (including a Nurses’ Health Study by Harvard University) have shown a link between inadequate sleep and weight gain for both males and females due to the effects of hormones in the body. Of course, plenty of rest is also needed to give you the energy to keep up with a regular exercise regimen, and to keep the immune system healthy and strong.

Tip: Always consult with a medical professional before beginning a new exercise program. 

PLEASE keep all discussions relevant to fashion, textiles, beauty products, or jewelry.
