You’ve tried everything from fad diets to zumba classes. Unfortunately, since the only consistent thing you’ve achieved was inconsistency, the bulges have been piling up more than ever. When everyday activities become tiring and you’re constantly exhausted, not to mention when most of your clothes don’t fit you anymore, you get stressed out. And what happens when you’re stressed out? You tend to stress eat. All those peameal bacon sandwiches, beavertails, and butter tarts seem to be calling out your name. So you begin to lose motivation because it seems that you’re never gonna get fit again, but you can, and here’s how, you need to start thinking that fitness is not a destination but a way of life !

What does this mean? It means that you need to make healthy food and proper exercises an everyday thing, not ‘get-a-membership-at-a-fancy-gym-and-only-go-for-a-month thing’. Mate, you need to make a serious commitment and you know what they say, “No Pain, No Gain”. You have the freedom to choose whatever workout, works out for ya. If you wanna boost cardio, make running, cycling or swimming a regular thing. Don’t think you have the will power to continue the workout? Now worries. The best personal trainers in Toronto the likes of those at First Class PT, will know how to constantly keep you motivated and focused on the game. They will also give you a carefully thought-out diet plan that is ideal for your body’s condition and what you aim it to be. For example, those with an apple-shaped body type should choose fiber-rich carbohydrates such as legumes, oats, beans, whole grain bread, and non-starchy vegetables. Pear-shaped individuals, on the other hand should maintain a diet of lower fat, high fiber and an ample balance of lean proteins.

Keep on fighting, better and stronger. To maintain a fit life you should always try improving your workout routing. To do this, you must improve the intensity of your workout as well as its length. If you started by jogging 2 to 4 miles, try upgrading it to 5 to 4 miles as you go on. Always challenge yourself to beat your last timing. When the workout grows so does your healthy lifestyle.

And remember staying fit is to have more fun!
