Spring break is close and it doesn't matter whether you are a college student or taking a family vacation you want to be in great shape and more importantly in great health.
Having had many university students in my Bodilates and Yoga classes as well as personal training clients I know they all wanted that "beach body" before heading to the warm climates. Looking good in that bikini takes work and also eating the right foods. It's not easy to keep that look if you are constantly drinking alcohol, consuming fast food, sugar snacks and not getting enough sleep.
Whether you are 20 or 50, keeping fit and healthy isn't easy, but once you get into the routine it becomes a lifestyle and that's exactly what we as personal trainers try to instill in our clients....a healthy lifestyle.
For those of you heading on a "spring break" think about what you are putting into your body as much as you think about your workouts!! While away, drink plenty of water, enjoy the local fresh fruits and veggies and be safe!!

Weight Loss and Attitude
Now that the holiday season has ended it's time to re-evaluate your life. After all, this is the first day of the rest of your life!!
Most of you have made some resolutions about your health, fitness and lifestyle. These are not only resolutions, but goals. These resolutions or goals must be reasonable and attainable. So take a minute to think about them and if you need to make some changes do it now! If you feel you can make them work go for it.
As you move forward with these goals plan some rewards which will help you keep your focus. These rewards can be in any form; new clothes, a massage, vacation or even a "new me" party!
Take a moment and think about what might prohibit you from reaching your goals. Be ready for possible problems which may interfere with your progress, but keep moving forward. Recognize it's easy to give up; but those obstacles which will pop up now and then can also be jumped over and a stronger you will emerge. DO NOT LET YOURSELF SLIDE INTO A NEGATIVE PATTERN!
