Don't let go over the holidays

You probably here it every year, especially once Thanksgiving comes along and through all the holidays... watch what you eat, you will gain weight, etc. Truth is that from which ever source you have heard it... it is true.

I mean lets be honest with all the celebrations, the food, the drinking, the pastries... I know it's hard to resist them all - all the time! I get it it, it's human nature. In reality no matter how hard you may try to avoid it, you know you will indulge on various occasions.

So then, what can you do to balance things out? Well for starters just because it's the holidays it's no excuse to just let go of yourself. If you know that you will be in a more celebrative mode, you will eat and drink a little more than usual then my recommendation is you need to increase the intensity and frequency of your workouts and cardio program NOW and in between the following weeks. Doing so will allow you to sort of balance the equation.

Make sure that in between the parties or gatherings you eat 90% of the time clean. Meaning avoid starches, limit carbohydrates, but eat plenty of vegetables, up your protein intake, eat healthy fats, avoid alcohol on those days, drink plenty of water and taking in some good vitamins.

There are many more things you could do to ensure that not only you don't gain weight during the holidays, but you burn fat in the process. For example many of my clients have taken part in our annual Holiday Fat Loss Challenge which on average every year my clients lose about 5 - 7 pounds of fat while everyone else stays the same or gains weight.

You could do something similar to help create accountability and help you to stick to a routine when it comes to eating and exercising.

However if at the very least you follow the above suggestions, you will be able to cruise through the holidays without fear of gaining unwanted weight.

Cheers!!

Dedicated to your success!!

Holiday Survival Fitness Tips

I'm actually concern with the arrival of the holiday season. Truth is most people splurge over the holidays and since Halloween is just days away it's only fitting we speak about this. 

Halloween is the first major calorie bump on holiday road. Most people will host or go to parties, eat candies, eat all sorts of food and drink alcohol that will only make us fatter. So what can we do to limit the damage to our waistlines? 

When it comes to your kids, let them be kids but limit the amount and the type of candy they can eat. Plus make sure your get your kids on a regular activity/sports/fitness program, child obesity is increasing and it's a serious problem. So as a parent please set the example. 

Eating too much candy has a bad effect on your body. It loads you up on sugar which cripple's your body abilities to burn fat. And a combination of too much sugar, lack of exercise and depending on the parties you go (bad or excess food and alcohol) can destroy your metabolism, which will contribute to your weight gain during the holidays. Click here to read how alcohol makes you fat. 

My mission is to help people be fit, stay fit and appreciate their health. So with that in mind here are some basic rules that I've come up with to combat the potential catastrophe.

1) Limit the candy you eat to just one. And if possible eat only dark chocolate for the extra health benefit.

2) Eat a healthy snack of meal before going to a party, this way you'll be less tempted to eat unhealthy foods or too much candy.

3) If you are buying the candy, don't buy more than is necessary. That will only make you and others eat more and leave room for leftovers which is a big no-no. So if you have leftovers... get rid of them!!! Throw them out. I know, I know.. but it cost money. Listen "it's not a waste if your saving your waist".

4) Don't skip your exercise program to go to a party. instead make sure you get an early workout and be sure to add and extra 20 minute cardio the next day to burn off some unwanted calories.

5) If you are not a regular exerciser then what are you waiting for!!!

6) Buy your candy at the last minute to avoid eating the candy ahead of time.

7) For those with kids... stay out of their stash!!! But do keep an eye on what they are eating and limit how much they will eat. 

 

7) If you are a woman please join us for our Holiday Boot Camp Challenge starting November 9, 2010 to combat the holiday weight gain. Men and other women can follow our online training programs and personal training "6 Week Burn The Holiday Fat" program.

Be smart about your choices this holiday season starting with Halloween. And hopefully you'll avoid being haunted by the weight gain weeks after that!
