Keen to spring clean your exercise routine? Spring into fitness with Vitality this September and discover a more vibrant you. Your body and mind will thank you...
Spring is a beautiful season that symbolises new beginnings and personal growth. It's the ideal time to embrace change and focus on your fitness aspirations. Take this opportunity to start afresh, set new goals, and prioritise your wellbeing.
Whether you're a seasoned gym-goer or a complete beginner, this article will guide you on how to make the most of your time at the gym.
1. Reflect on your fitness goals
What do you wish to achieve this season? Whether it's losing weight, building strength, improving flexibility, or simply enhancing your overall health and wellbeing, define your objectives clearly.
2. Create a balanced workout plan
A well-rounded workout plan is key to starting afresh this spring. Incorporate a mix of cardiovascular exercises, strength training, and flexibility exercises to achieve optimal results.
3. Add variety to your routine
Keep your gym routine fresh. Spring is the perfect time to infuse variety into your workouts. Try new classes, experiment with different equipment, or explore outdoor activities that complement your gym routine.
4. Prioritise proper nutrition
Starting afresh this spring is not just about hitting the gym. It's also about nourishing your body with the right fuel. Focus on consuming a balanced diet rich in whole foods, fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats and staying hydrated.
5. Find an accountability partner
Accountability can be a game-changer when it comes to reaching your fitness goals. Find a workout buddy, a friend, or a family member who shares similar aspirations and can hold you accountable.
6. Celebrate small wins
Starting afresh this spring is an ongoing process. Celebrate each small win to stay motivated. And remember, a little goes a long way. The Science of Vitality research shows that regular exercise can reduce the risk of severe illness. Plus, even a small increase in physical activity could prevent 1 in 5 cases of depression in women.
