If all you get for Christmas is fat, now is a great time to kick your body into shape.
Boot camp: One of the most effective and popular, not to mention motivational workouts around, this hard core regime uses the same conventional exercises and cardio that gets soldiers battle ready.
Running: You’ll burn more calories per minute running than doing just about any other cardiovascular exercise. Best of all, with the weather so nice, all you need is a decent pair of shoes.
Body Pump: This heavy duty Les Mills licensed class has been designed by fitness gurus to deliver a whollop of a work out. In just an hour, you’ll burn a ton of calories while you tone every muscle group. Contact 02 657 7777.
Hydrate: Keep a bottle of water nearby and you’re less likely to feel hungry between meals. It’s your liver that processes fat and carries it out of the body; if you’re dehydrated your liver will end up helping your kidneys do their job, allowing fat to build up.
Eat less: Losing weight is all about balancing your calories – if you consume fewer calories than you burn, the pounds will come off. Focus on eating mostly fruits, vegetables and lean protein for a healthy intake of calories.
