HAPPY HOLIDAYS
With holiday season here Personal Trainer KatyHemelryk shares her top tips forweight-loss
Hi everyone! I hope thismonth’s article finds youwell! Thismonth I wanted to discuss howto get in shape for a holiday! So, you're going on a holiday in a
fewweeks/months’ time and you want to feel good and confident on the beach and that's ok! Yes, there's a brilliant positivemovement for "everyone has a bikini body… just put a bikini, on your body".But there's also nothingwrongwithwanting to reach an aesthetic goal too, as long as you do it in a
healthyway.My advicewould be:
1 2 3
Cutdownon the junk food. Note I didn't say ban it. If you ban
it, you'll obsess over it until you have some giant chocolatemeltdown and eat everything in
sight.My advice would be to just try and opt for healthier foods asmuch as possible.
Don’t let yourself get too hungryby going toolong
betweenmeals. You'rewaymore likely to have a junk food craving when you're hankmarvin’ so keep full on fruit, nuts, protein shakes, whatever you like that's higher in nutrients than amars bar.
Keeptraining. Push yourself in the gymandmaybe add a little
extraHIIT into your plan if you're already a seasoned gym-goer. Beginners, stick to the
basics.More advanced people…HIIT could involve some big explosivemovements like burpees, box jumps, tuck jumps etc,

to get you burningmore calories in less time.HIIT could also be treadmill sprints or intervals on the bike. Either way, don't start doing extra 30min hill walks every day unless you're going on awalking holiday, it takes up too much time and isn’t very fun.

Drink enoughwater. It depends on your height,weight etc, but
start slowly increasing howmuch of it you have. Just good, old, plainwater. Your bladderwill get used to the extra fluid fairly quickly and you'll feel amazing, sleep better, have great skin, less cravings, less hungry etc.
5
Dotry andincrease yourNEAT. Non-exercise activity
thermogenesis.Basically, any movement that isn't
exercise.All movements use energy so get up fromyour chair atwork a littlemore, get off the bus one stop early, dance while you're cooking
dinner.Don't obsess over being on your feet, just try and be active a littlemore.
6
Don't restrict your calories too much. You'll feel rubbish&you
should be getting excited for your hols! Secondly, you'll have no energy to smash yourworkouts&you'll lose
