If you are like most people around the world, this holiday season brings on additional weight that can be SO hard to get rid of.
Here are some tips to get rid of those extra ten pounds or the holiday 4.5 K.
A really FUN way to get rid of the extra weight is on the X-Box 360 with Kinect. Kinect has Zoomba Fitness and various martial arts games, fitness games, and interactive challenging games that burn calories and shape your body in a really fun and creative way.
I recommend the total butt kicker game YOUR SHAPE Fitness Evolved 2012. The Kinect actually tracks every movement, which means you cannot cheat easily on your workout. Amazingly I was totally surprised and elated to find a work out game that actually made me totally sore and sincerely challenged my abilities.
If you don't have time for the gym or a work out because of too many college courses or long work hours here are a few tips that are easy to add into your normal day:
1. Park your car in the farthest parking spot to burn extra calories going on your errands.
2. While getting ready in the morning do mini-push ups on the counter or squats as you are getting dressed or cooking.
3. Take the stairs instead of the elevator, it will burn extra calories and tone your legs and butt.
4. Walk or bike instead of taking the car. This not only is great for your body, but it is also eco-friendly and saves money on gas, which has become astronomical for your pocket-book.
5. Volunteer at a local establishment to organize or help build homes for the homeless such as Habitat for Humanity, http://www.habitat.org.
Another sweet way to burn calories and help others is to do yard work for the elderly. Volunteering not only burns up calories with the busy work, but you are helping others and in turn you get an inner boost as well.
My New Years resolution is to not only get into shape but to look into helping others as well.
Good luck and many blessings with whatever it is YOU choose to look great and feel better from the inside out.
