1. Diet: more than just spinach smoothies
The first step towards a firmer body is diet. This doesn’t mean you have to live on spinach smoothies alone.
Focus on a varied diet with protein, good fats and fibre. In other words, you should eat more vegetables and meat, fish or protein-rich plant products.
Protein helps muscle growth and fibre keeps your stomach in shape. Most people eat far too little protein in their diets.
And hey, don’t forget hydration! Drink that water.
2. Exercise: diversity is key
Varied physical activity is the key to staying fit. Try different types of exercise: strength training, HIIT and even pilates. This will help you work different muscle groups and tone your body more evenly.
3. Rest and recovery: don’t underestimate their power
Hard training without adequate recovery can lead to overuse and muscle damage. So remember to rest and recover. Use a tube roll, stretch and sleep well.
4. Set realistic goals: Rome wasn’t built in a day
Solidification does not happen overnight. Set yourself realistic goals and be patient.
Keep a training diary and track your progress. You should measure something, like your waist circumference, once a week. Always take a measurement at the same time of day, for example before breakfast in the morning.
Women should also take into account their menstrual cycle, as it can have a big impact on body composition.
5. Enjoy the journey: it’s part of the process
Remember that getting fit is a journey, not a destination. You should focus on finding the pleasure in doing something (choose a sport you really enjoy) so that you can maintain a solid state of being after you achieve it.
Enjoy your workouts, your new food choices and the good feeling they bring. When you enjoy the journey, the goal feels much easier to achieve.
Start the journey towards a firmer being
It’s not rocket science, but it does require commitment, patience and the right attitude. Diet, varied exercise and adequate rest are the keys to success. So, start today and make small but significant changes to your daily routine.
