Top 2 tips to eliminate holiday weight gain

Hey everyone

Now is the time that so many of us struggle with our fitness and weight gain.

Holiday parties, Halloween, thanksgiving...

How do you get through it without adding the holiday pounds?

my top 2 (there are more) tips to keep you on the good side of the holidays.

1 - Exercise the day of your event -
Get in a good circuit, full body workout. Utilize, weights, bands, body weight, and cardio moves of your choice. Pick your favorite 4 exercises (or check my favorites over to the side of the page)- 20 reps or 20 seconds high intensity for a minimum of 4 rounds. Try for 6 rounds for maximum calorie burn.

2 - Be aware of how much you are eating and drinking -
Be sure to eat before you go to an event (extra tip) and try to not stand near a snack table while socializing. Also if you are having multiple courses, be aware of your portion sizes. don't be bashful about eating only a small portion of everything rather than finishing everything - if you finish it all you could be running up to 2000+ calories. Yikes.

More Holiday survival tips soon.....

And the BEST way of all to kill of the calories is of course training with your friends and me at Boot Camp. http://www.lefeverwellness.com/ for info.

Our next session starts THIS week and runs up to thanksgiving. Just in time.
