How to Stay Fit During (and After) the Holidays

Hi there! If you’re reading this article you’re probably concerned about your looks and how Holidays will affect them.

It is very good to want to stay healthy and fit and it is also good to have fun and enjoy yourself. This is definitely not going to be that type of article saying stuff like “3 best exercises to lose 20 pounds in 2 hours”. So, here are my tips:

It’s not like Christmas lasts a whole year long

First of all, I want you to know that Christmas and New Year food is not helium and you will not inflate like a ballon just from eating a lot of yummy food for one week. If you’re going to have a weight problem in your life, it will definitely not be because you ate some cake for Christmas.

Enjoy yourself and don’t overthink it

If you really but really love food and you can’t wait to get to your grandmother’s house to eat those cookies, then do it. Don’t stress about it. Enjoy yourself. You don’t have to be a maniac to get up at 6 a.m. in Christmas morning to do some jogging. In the new year you’ll have plenty of time to exercise. As I said before, a few days of fun won’t count. If you like Christmas cookies, you should check this funny post: Creative Christmas cupcakes with a hilarious twist.

It’s winter. Do some winter stuff

Don’t forget that it is actually winter and there are these funny activities you could do to burn some calories. Needless to say that if you go skiing you will probably come back more fit than before. If you won’t leave town, you could always go ice skating or build a snowman or something. Winter activities are great for toning your body.

Come back to your normal life

When the holidays are over, don’t forget to come back to your regular life. If you ate cake on a daily basis during Holidays, you should stop it after New Year. If you didn’t exercise, well, it’s time to start exercising. Just come back to whatever your life style was and everything will be fine. Even if you gained 2 pounds, you will quickly loose them if you eat healthy and exercise on a regular basis.

Until then, enjoy your Holidays and have a Happy New Year!
