90 Days till Spring! – StrydomFitness

I am not a winter person, but I do like to change up my training routine for winter.  It helps me to focus on my goals and then before you know it Winter is finished…… Every year I have different goals to get through winter.  Yesterday I did my first trail run in Australia, I am hooked so running will be part of my routine but I will focus more on my strength.  I am looking forward to see my results in 90 days.

Here is a few tips to start your summer body in winter:

  •  Never hit the snooze button.  Jump out of bed as soon as your alarm goes off and before your brain has time to realise how snugly warm it is in your bed.
  • Join a group  (if you are in Hampton/Sandringham area Melbourne) or hire a Personal trainer.  Being accountable to someone other than yourself is particularly helpful in winter, when the temptation to skip a session is much greater.
  • HIIT sessions are also great for burning lots of calories in a short period of time, helping you achieve results faster.  Plus, it sends your heart rate rocketing, so you get warm in a hurry.
  • Going to the gym help tremendously, but you don’t have to.  You can do body weight workouts or Movefit (most of the sessions I design  can be done with little to no equipment in the comfort of your own home).
  • Remember why you started!  When you need motivation to keep on going, remember why you started your health journey in the first place.
