The Risk-Free Way To Get Into Shape Before Summer

By Amber Morris


Bathing suit time of year is approaching quickly and this has people taking on different eating habits (shunning those of the winter season) and promising themselves that they will get in shape before the weather prevents them from hiding their bodies under heavy layers of clothing. So many individuals plunge straight into working out constantly because they are desperate to lose weight and get into shape before anybody gets to see their body. Unfortunately if you attempt to get into shape too fast, you could actually end up hurting yourself. Doctors everywhere assume that it doesn't do you any good to simply jump into a regular exercise routine. So how are you supposed to get a lean body soon enough to put on that bathing suit?

The very first thing you must do is pay a visit to your doctor. Ask for a complete physical check up. This will let you discover your best starting point for working out and getting in shape. Your doctor will help you discover your goal weight and body mass index objectives as well as helping you determine if there are any health conditions that you need to treat carefully while you work to get in shape. Your doctor will help you construct some nutritional guidelines so that you can also work to get your diet under control.

Begin your efforts bit by bit. Don't try to run five miles instantly. A very good plan for working your way into shape is Couch to 5K. This is a plan that little by little steps up your running routine until you are ready to take on a 5K marathon. Obviously, however, you should do more than just running to get in shape. It is also important that you work on your strength and endurance training. If you do not have time for that many training session routines, find a way to use the Couch to 5K program to a swimming program so that you can work all of your body systems slowly but surely.



Put together a support team. Sure putting on excess fat can be awkward, but you stand a much better chance of losing weight and getting into shape if you find a few people to work with. You can work together to eat right and exercise-these are folks who can check out weight watchers meetings with you, take exercise classes with you, etc. If you don't want to do this with folks in "real" life, you'll find this type of support on the net. There are many internet support groups established for people who want to lose weight.

The actual truth is that it can take time to get rid of weight and get your body into decent shape. The sooner you start to modify your eating habits and exercise habits the better off you will be. The earlier you start to make your improvements, the easier it is likely to be to slowly and steadily get into shape. Try to remember that this is a scenario when slow and steady will win the race: your health and body will thank you for your efforts in bathing suit season.
