It's spring! Today. A lot of people go into panic mode around now, realizing summer clothing may be a bit tight. What to do? Exercise non- stop until June? Starve?
NO! Just change up your workouts. If you've been doing the same old routine all winter, or longer, try something new. Muscle confusion is the name of the game. Our bodies adapt very quickly to specific routines. If you've been lifting weights all winter, why not try a cardio class? And hot yoga is especially good at this time of year, not just for the stretching, but it is an excellent way to detox for spring.
When it comes to fat/weight loss, the best advice I can give is to get your heart rate up. Running, cycling, stair climbing - either at a sustained pace or in intervals. It doesn't even need to be traditional cardio. You can turn a weight routine into a cardio session by keeping moving so the heart rate stays elevated, or perhaps add a minute of skipping rope in between sets. It's not too late! Get that heart pumping and do what your body is made to do - MOVE!
