It’s December 1st and the holiday season is officially underway. Now, everywhere we look offices are bursting with mince pies, tables are groaning under the weight of turkeys and shops are awash with every imaginable type of chocolate. But just because we’ve entered the season to be jolly, doesn’t mean we need to lose site of our fitness goals. Maybe a little bit of Scrooge is a good thing. So, if you’re looking for a reason to step away from that mince pie, here are Polaroid Sunglasses’ top tips for a healthier holiday.
Exercise when you least expect it – Sitting comfortably in front of the telly? Taking the elevator to your office? Waiting for the kettle to boil? There’s no reason to stay put for everyday activities and tasks. Turn up the volume on your down time by doing a few crunches during Coronation Street or deep knee bends with the news. By the same token, there’s nothing wrong with taking the stairs. An elevator may be faster, but it won’t help you take care of the extra calories you pick up at the office Christmas party. And, instead of watching the kettle, why not keep a pair of hand weights in the kitchen and do a few reps? Your triceps will thank you.
