Healthy Habits for a Bikini Body by Summer!
When the wind, rain and cold weather are still with us it can be difficult to find a sense of urgency about getting rid of the excess winter kg's but before you know it the warmer weather will be on our doorstep.
Rather than leave it to the last minute and having to resort to quick fixes and extreme measures start or step up your efforts now so that by the time the sun starts shining again you are already looking and feeling the goods.
Sometimes it can take longer than we expect to lose the few (or many!) kg's we are storing as our bodies take time to adapt and adjust to a new or improved exercise and nutrition regime. It is always good to give yourself plenty of time to drop the bodyfat you need to drop to be at your goal weight or bodyfat %.
By starting now you can also avoid extreme dieting or exercising and instead work at integrating small but important changes over time making the whole journey far less painful!
Below are some good habits to start to bringing into your everyday or week.
Aim to create one change per week and keep building on those changes.
If you can stick to each habit consistently for a month you will be home and hosed.
Ok here are the healthy habits I suggest you start to implement if you haven't already.
Eat a healthy breakfast every day.
Eat 7 serves of veggies every day.
Eat 3 pieces of fruit every day.
Drink enough fresh water every day.
Wear sunscreen every day.
Wear a hat and sunglasses each time you exercise outdoors even in winter.
Do 3 - 5 x 45 - 60 minute cardio sessions every week and be sure to include some high intensity sessions.
Do 2 - 4 resistance sessions every week making sure you work your whole body.
Pack healthy food to take with you whenever you are away from home.
Pre-cook healthy meals so when you are tired you don't opt for junk.
Plan your healthy meals for the week every week.
Plan your training schedule for the week every week and always include a back up plan.
Avoid foods that you know make you feel rotten.
Cut back on coffee, sugar, white flour, processes foods and alcohol.
I shouldn't even have to mention - do not smoke or use sun beds!
Check in with your goals every single day.
Make sure you take one step towards your goals every single day.
Spend some time outside each day.
Make an effort with your appearance everyday - it always makes you feel more confident.
I know this is a long list but I have found that the women on my programs who follow these principles reach their goals every single time so it is worth the effort.
You will notice that these healthy habits are not a quick fix or extreme method for losing weight but instead a set of rules that once followed will result in you becoming a healthy weight and feeling energised and more confident, clear headed and focused than before (if of course you are not already practicing these habits!).
