If you’re looking to get in shape, become a little healthier or take on a fitness challenge, look no further, as SoGlos shares some simple ways to achieve your fitness goals.
Get a personal trainer you can trust
Whether you’re just starting out on your fitness journey; are already well on your way; or are rehabilitating from an injury, a qualified personal trainer or body coach can offer expert advice that’s bespoke to you, your lifestyle and your health and wellbeing goals. You can’t beat the personal approach...
Join a community
If the thought of working out alone is too daunting, give group fitness classes a try. Even if you can’t make it to the gym, online group fitness classes give a sense of community from a safe distance too, offering online support and motivation to keep you on track.
Move every day
The most important reason to exercise is to get your body moving regularly. From strength training and aerobic fitness to flexibility, choose classes that offer a different challenge every day, to help get your body working as well as looking great.
Eat nutrient dense foods
A huge part of health and wellbeing comes from what you eat. Instead of following fad diets or counting calories, keep a focus on nutritional benefits. Go for foods that aren’t processed and try to curb that sugar addiction too.
Get enough sleep
Getting enough sleep is vital for rest and recovery and it’s important to establish a good routine. Aim to get seven to nine hours sleep every night and try going to sleep and waking up at the same time each day, to get your body into a natural rhythm.
De-stress
Life can be stressful at the best of times, but especially at the moment, so making time to de-stress is more important now than ever. Stretching and deep breathing can really help to mitigate the effects of stress on the body, not to mention giving your mind a chance to let it all go, too.
Get some daylight
It sounds like a small thing, but getting just 20 minutes of natural daylight every day can help keep your circadian rhythm in check, which can help you sleep better, while spending time in nature can give your mental health a boost. It’s good to give your eyes some exercise too, especially with all the extra screen-time when working from home.
