Holidays have you burned out? Consider Women's Fitness in Buffalo

Have the holidays taken a toll on your Women's fitness goals this year? Just about everyone I know that is involved in women's fitness in buffalo and Western New York has hit a wall this holiday season, allowing the stress to drag them into over sleeping, poor eating and awful depression.
  
Here are five tips to get you out of the holiday choke hold and back on track!

1. Laugh every chance you get! To often people get caught up in the wrong idea about holidays. This year just make it a point to laugh at everything. When I say "everything" I mean literally find things amusing that would of turned your head at before. CHEER UP!
2. Most people confuse "watching what they eat" with not eating at all or skipping meals. This holiday season do not skip meals and do not purposely skip over food because "you had to much earlier." Your body needs "fuel" to keep your metabolism burning, if you only eat once in a while your body will build a memory and begin to store these foods as fat because it does not know when you are going to eat again. Keep a steady pace of fuel on the fire and you will see a much bigger change then not eating.
3. Get off the couch! Just because you ate all day does not mean sit down and watch the fat build around your mid section. Get up help with the dishes or pick up around the house. Stay active instead of sitting idle most of the holiday season
4. Do not wait to start your "New years resolution" for Women's fitness. Start right now! As soon as it is some thing you want go get it. The longer you wait, the more likely it will be that you will continue to put it off.
5. You do not have to go to the gym to get a workout this holiday season. I know many gyms are closed or deserted for the holidays but you can still keep on top of things. Use things around the house as opportunity to exercise. Squats while brushing or lunges while sweeping. Stay active and do not stay idle.

Combat Holiday Eating with Women's Fitness in Buffalo

This time of year, it is very easy to get caught up in holiday festivities and fitness often falls to the wayside. Parties and gatherings, baking, cooking -- the eating and drinking seems endless! Instead of making excuses this year, combat your holiday eating with Women's fitness in Buffalo! Decide now that you are not going to allow the holidays to dictate the start of your 2013. 

Why continue to gorge between Christmas and New Year's when you can get started on your resolutions early? Start focusing on your 2013 goals and get a jump start on all your friends. It is time to start moving forward with your fitness goals, and women's fitness classes in Buffalo at WNYMMA are a great way to get started.

Along with regular classes, here are some tips for staying on track through the rest of the holiday season:

1. Try not to overfill your plate. Take smaller portions and eat slowly. It take a few minutes for your brain to catch up with your stomach.

2. Increase your water intake over the holidays. Typically when you are feeling hungry its actually your body telling you that it is dehydrated. Aim to drink at least half of your body weight in ounces of water. Weigh 140 pounds? Drink at least 70 oz. of water a day.

3. Just because it's the 'best cheesecake Aunt Nancy has ever made' doesn't mean you have to try it. JUST SAY NO!

4. Napping is especially enjoyable around this time of year, especially on those days off from work. But continual napping can reek havoc on your system. Refrain from multiple naps during the day.Stay active and keep your metabolism high.

5. BE MERRY! Science has proven that laughter burns calories. By having fun and being merry you will increase oxygenation to your blood cells which in turn support your digestion and metabolism.

Stay in the holiday spirit and get started with your fitness goals early. With women's fitness in Buffalo, now both are possible!
