Getting back into shape after the holidays: some tips for a healthy start
Physical activities for a new start
Walking and Jogging: Easy and versatile, both help burn calories without straining the body. 30-40 minutes a day are sufficient to activate your metabolism.
Yoga and Pilates: Perfect for restoring balance after excessive eating, they improve flexibility, breathing and stress management.
Moderate Strength Training: Using light weights or the body weight, they promote muscle tone and support posture.
HIIT: Brief sessions at high intensity, ideal for those who want a dynamic workout and already have a basic training level.
The benefits of a gradual approach
Listening to your body is important: resuming exercise too intensely can cause muscle pain or injuries.
Beginning with light exercises, gradually increasing the intensity, is the best way to ensure constancy and lasting results.
