Tips to get you in tip-top form for race
IF you have been inspired to kick-start your fitness regime, centre manager at Bushfield and Werrington’s Planet Pulse gyms Jamie Fenton has given us his top 10 health and fitness tips which will help you achieve great results:
1.Drink a glass of water 30 minutes prior tomeals, as this will stop you over eating and help to fill you up.
2.Drinking two litres of water every day will help remove toxins in the body and improve skin complexion.
3.Eat main carbs for lunch rather than later at night, as you will burn them off more during the daytime.
4.Don’t eat fruit late at night as it is high in natural sugars.
5.Use energy drinks when working out, as they will enhance performance.
6.Train at least three days a week to improve fitness, help with weight loss and increase muscle tone.
7.You should aim to take 30 minutes day of moderate exercise to stay healthy – this could include washing the car, housework, or walking/biking to and from work.
8.After 12 minutes of continual moderate exercise, you will start to work in your fat-burn zones.
9. It’s better to drink lukewarm water than ice cold water as it’s easier for the body to circulate and faster to flush through your system.
10.Training before breakfast will use up wasted/excess calories from the night before. You can then eat something such as fruit of cereal to re-charge which is good for your body and digestive system.
