HAVING A HEALTH HOLIDAY

Your schedule will likely be filled with family obligations, traveling and festive outings with all sorts of tempting treats. Even the most disciplinedpeoplecanfind itdifficulttosticktotheirhealthandfitness routines.However,withthesetips,youwillbeabletomanageactivity into your daily schedule with patience and time. 1. Keepmoving. In addition to staying active, try to avoid sitting for prolonged periods of time. Research shows that getting up for just five minutes every30-60 minutes and performing light activity (like pacing or doing a few squats) reduces the risk of diabetes and other heart disease risk factors. 2.Becreativeandgetridof ‘allornothing’mindsets. Theholidays arehectic,butdoyourbesttoavoidthe ‘allornothing’mentalitywhen it comes to healthful eating and physical activity. In reality, there is more than just one way to live healthfully and be active. During the holidays, get a bit creative with exercise and opt for fun ways that make physical activity a family affair. From exploring new group fitness classes to building physical activity into holiday traditions. 3. Remember that there is always time and opportunity for a workout. Plan your workouts for the week and note them in your schedule to assure they are a part of your day. Also, remember that some exercise is better than none. Rather than skipping the gym altogether, make time for a quick workout.
