The Best Method For Getting In Shape Before Summer

By Robert Brown


Bathing suit time of year is coming quickly and this has folks taking on new eating habits (shunning those of the winter season) and promising themselves that they will get in shape before the weather prevents them from hiding their bodies under heavy layers of clothing. So many people resort to drastic measures with their workouts because they're determined to lose weight and get in shape before any other individuals are able to see their bodies. Sadly, attempting to get in shape too fast could actually damage your health. Doctors everywhere agree that it won't help you to merely jump into a daily workout routine. So how are you supposed to get a lean body in time to put on that bathing suit?

The primary thing you must do is see your doctor. Ask for a complete physical check up. This will allow you to see exactly what your starting point is before you start working out and trying to get in shape. Your doctor will help you determine how much it is best to weigh and what your body mass index should be as well as letting you know if you have any specific health conditions that you need to remember when you start working to get in shape. Your physician may help you set up a good diet plan so that you can get your diet regime under control as well.

Start out slowly. Trying to jog lots of miles right away is not good. A very good program for working your way straight into shape is Couch to 5K. This is a regimen that will slowly but surely raise your running workouts until you're able to run a 5K marathon. Obviously, however, you need to do a lot more than simply jogging to get in shape. Weight training along with cardiovascular training are very important too. If you don't have time for all of this, look for a swimming variation of Couch to 5K-this way you'll work your whole body and build all of your systems safely and over time.



Put together a support team. Weighing an excessive amount may be awkward, but you will have a better chance of losing weight and getting in shape if you find some people to work with you. You can come together to get healthy and eat healthfully; after all, your support group will be the individuals who go to weight loss group meetings with you, take exercise and work out classes with you, etc. If you don't want to do this with people in "real" life, you'll find this type of support on the web. There are lots of online support groups for people who are trying to lose weight that you can join.

The simple fact, to put it simply, is that it takes time to lose weight plus more time to get in shape. The sooner you start to alter things for the better, the better off you will be. The sooner you start to make your adjustments, the easier it is likely to be to slowly and steadily get into shape. Try to bear in mind this is a scenario when slow and steady does win the race: your health and body will thank you for your efforts in bathing suit season.
