2. How to Lose Weight and
Keep Fit Forever
Who else’s weight fluctuates? Answer:
everyone. However, if you manage to
work exercise into your daily life, you’ll be
living your best life. Here are Trieu Nails’
tips on how to lose weight and keep fit
forever:
3. 1. No Quick Fixes
Start off with this. Find your
determination to continue. There are no
quick fixes, and there’s no such thing as a
diet pill, we’re pretty sure. Rather than
slapping on a flimsy plaster, we want a
long lasting fix. A body isn’t just for
summer, it’s for life y’all. You’re going to
have to be committed to the long run
here, we’re just warning you now!
4. 2. Achievable Goals
There’s no point setting yourself goals
you’re never going to do. It’s just going to
make you feel worse when you fail - and
less likely to continue. Work out an
achievable set of goals that you can
accomplish every day. Then feel proud
when you do you it! Even if it’s just a set
of mat exercises before bed, the routine
of actually doing it will be beneficial,
you’ll feel like you’re actually achieving.
5. 3. Consistency
It gets easier, you just have to do it every
day. You can climb the mountain toward
your goals, just take one step each day.
But seriously, the way we build and retain
muscle is by exercising it regularly. Do it,
whatever it may be, every day. And it’ll
train your mind to do good stuff too,
we’re sure of that… Make use of reminder
apps on your phone!
6. 4. Diet
There’s no point burning off 500 calories
with cardio, if you go and stuff a double
cheeseburger down your throat
immediately afterwards. Diet is a huge
part of staying healthy. Work out a
weekly shop and plan meals for each day
– it’s going to be a lot easier to stick to
your goals if you keep them within reach.
Keep a stock of staples, plan your meals.
7. 5. Work Exercise into
Your Routine
It’s a lot easier to do something if it
naturally falls into your routine. It’s hardly
a chore if you don’t realise you’re doing
it, right? This step could be as simple as
cycling to the shops instead of driving.
You could even get up 20 minutes earlier
and walk to work! When you plan, it’s a
lot easier to work this exercise effortlessly
into your routine.
8. 6. Do a Mix of Exercises
There’s no point pumping weights if you
haven’t done enough cardio to actually
loose some weight. Work different groups
of muscles at the gym to make the most
of the time it takes them to recover. Try
looking at apps like GymShark for
exercises to try, or you could always
check out some free content on youtube.
9. 7. Play Racket Sports with
Friends
This one functions similarly to making
exercise part of your routine; harness the
power of your competitive side and focus
on the game. The social side of this will
encourage you to want to take part. You’ll
walk away having done great cardio
without hardly noticing!
10. 8. Join a Sports Club
Again, get competitive. Use it to your
advantage. Try to focus on technique and
you won’t even notice you’re getting a
great exercise… Use resources like Get
Active to easily find clubs near you.
11. 9. Get on Top of Nutrition
There’s no point eating healthily if you’re
not actually eating healthily. Stay away
from processed food. Go for protein
rather than carbs, try; lentils instead of
pasta, chickpeas instead of rice - these
two are great cornerstones of healthier
living. Try to eat as many vegetables as
you can.
12. 10. Get Good at Cooking
You’re going to want to snack and break
rank so much more when you dislike the
food you’ve planned for yourself. Put
effort and thought into your dishes and
you’ll look forward to coming home to
them, rather than eating a burger in the
car. Spare yourself the shame,
congratulate your successes. Get good at
cooking, try to enjoy it!
13. 11. Change Your Eating
Habits
And that means no more snacking. Focus
on planning your meals. Plan around
exercise and snacking moments by taking
healthy food out with you. Bring a couple
of bananas to the gym or have a bag of
nuts to hand for during the day. Buy
yourself some nice tupperware and take a
lentil salad out with you.
14. 12. Exercise at Home
So it’s rainy and you can’t go outside to
exercise, don’t just give up. Get out that
yoga mat and give me twenty crunches. If
you haven’t got neighbours downstairs,
try some burpees. If you’ve got the
headroom, throw in a jump at the end
too. Work out a routine that you can fall
back on to get your heart racing at home,
seriously.
15. 13. Get a Bike
Riding your bike is a great way of working
exercise into your routine. Cycling to work
can be a serious piece of cardio. Do you
think you could do it? Try a few times
around Victoria Park, or take the canal
towpath all the way down to the Olympic
Park in Stratford. Sounds like a pleasant
Sunday with the kids!
16. 14. One Cardio Workout
Daily
Minimum. It doesn’t have to be huge. Just
a little piece of cardio will raise your
metabolism for the rest of the day, try to
work out in the mornings to make the
most of this effect. Combine this with a
healthy diet and you’ll be off to a fighting
start.
17. So good luck to you. Work exercise into
your life in a manageable way, and eat
well! It's all about consistency, and we
know you can do it. Really you can. And
once you have, it’s important to reward
yourself. And what better way to do so
than by selecting something from our
menu.
