Happy New Year to all past, present and future bootcampers and casual visitors to the page and fans of the fb page.
We hope 2012 is a fantastic and healthy year. With that in mind rather than making punitive resolutions such as giving up chocolate why not go for a change of healthy lifestyle philosophy. Everyone is unique but here are 10 ideas of things to change:
- Walk more – take the stairs, park further away from the mall entrance etc
- Eat less sugar – It is everywhere. Read the labels and try and eat less (fruit juice counts as sugar)
- Start taking fish oil – you are probably low in Omega 3 fats in your body so start to supplement them.
- Get out of breath – do something, once a day, that tires gets you out of breath. Doesn´t have to be for long
- Take up a sport – something with a score or competitive aspect. Squash, tennis, football. It doesn´t matter and no you are not too old.
- Eat less simple carbs – white flour, rice, etc. Cut them back. They are bad.
- More green veg – if you don´t like them then mix them in the food so you don´t notice (spag bol is great with frozen spinach stirred in)
- Set some targets – If body fat loss is a goal then measure yourself and set some realistic targets. If Cv fitness is a goal then get fitness tested (we can help with that)
- Learn about your body and how it works – there are so many great online resources out there. even read our site. Once you really get how it works then eating and training right becomes much easier.
- Smile more – You simply can´t smile enough. It has to be good for you.
Lots of love
