5 Tips For Fall Fitness & Weight Management
Exercising all year round is a good way to manage your weight and improve your health. While it’s very possible to continue working out during the fall, it’s important to remember that your fitness programs during this season might differ from those in the warmer months.
Here are 5 fall fitness tips to follow this season:
1. PLAN AHEAD
The fall months can often bring drastic changes in weather, resulting in snow, sleet or rain. These conditions can make it difficult or impossible to exercise outdoors. That’s why it’s important to have an alternate form of exercise. For example, join your local gym or purchase a treadmill for indoor runs in inclement weather.
|
DO NOT EXERCISE ON SNOW OR ICE Exercising when it’s snowing or icy outside can increase your risk of falls, strains and sprains. If you fall, you could injure your head, break a bone or sustain a back injury. REMEMBER: Always move your workout indoors until the snow or ice melts. |
2. STAY HYDRATED
Staying hydrated is a great weight management trick and it is essential for preventing loss of body heat and a healthy metabolism. Remember to carry a water bottle with you and drink it before, during and after your workout.
|
FALL FITNESS TIP: Adding sliced cucumbers, lemons and limes to your water have added benefits including fast weight loss and reduced heartburn and headaches. |
3. EAT A HEALTHY DIET
Many people crave higher calorie foods as the weather gets colder but this will make achieving your weight loss goal much harder. Remember to eat a well-balanced diet to give you the nutrients you need to fuel that fall exercise session.
Health Fall Diet Tips
- Supplement your diet with Vitamin D
- Plan your meals ahead of time to avoid making unhealthy choices
- Take advantage of the fresh produce that comes with the fall season
- Avoid holiday candy
- Drink green and black tea for weight management and to ward off sickness
4. TAKE TIME FOR RECOVERY
As any personal trainer will tell you, overdoing exercise is counterproductive and can actually damage your muscle tissue and cause injuries. Make sure to give yourself adequate recovery time between workouts and be sure to alternate muscle groups or body parts in your exercise session.
