With the advent of spring & upcoming summer season, most of you must be looking forward to renew your fitness goals & get back into shape.
During Aug’18, one of my client wanted to reduce 15 kgs over a span of 4 months. The below is the recipe I gave which helped him regain his shape:
- Diet: Healthy eating & proper diet is the best medicine to shed weight. 70% of your healthy physique comes from diet. You should focus on having a correct eating pattern.
Ideally, you should eat heavy breakfast since your activity levels during the morning is pretty high followed by medium lunch & very light dinner. Your diet should have a significant proportion of protein, carb, roughage & fat.
Avoid all foods that leads to accumulation of body fat such as processed food, junk food, & sugary foods such as aerated drinks, biscuits, chips & namkeen.
- Cardio & functional workout: You should indulge in cardio- treadmill, crossfit, 3 to 4 functional exercises such as jumping jack, spot running, mountain climb, burpees & 3 to 4 abs & side laterals at least 4 to 5 times a week.
- Running: Running is the best exercise to shed weight & burn calories. You should indulge in running at-least 2 to 3 times a week. How much or how fast you run shall depend upon your current stamina & fitness goals. It also also acts as a stress buster & helps you regain peace of mind. Needless to mention that running without have a healthy diet pattern will not help you.
- Strength training: If you are looking to shed weight and get in shape, you should also indulge in strength & weight training. If you are not a gym person, you can do exercises such as pushups, pull ups & squats at home. If you hit the gym frequently, you should indulge in activities such as bench press, shoulder press, lats exercises & deadlift( to name a few).
