6 Go running
Don't go to the gym in the winter!
We all know that exercise is good for health So on
January 1st we often start the New Year with a good esoliion ~ to go to the gym three times a week But what happens? The first week we go three times, the
second week we go twice, and the third week we stop going The same thing happens with diets, After Christmas
‘we start a new healthy eating plan We are
‘Very enthusiastic at first — but after two or three weeks,
we stop
Gall Harts, a personal trainer, says this is because winter
is the wrong time of the year to start new exercise
routines and diets ‘in the winter the days are short and
dark, and it’s cold outside Our bodies want food and
sleep, not diets and exercise’ His advice for people who
want to start a healthy lifestyle in January is to make small
changes Try to cut out chocolate and cakes for three
days a week — but don't eliminate them completely Go for short walks during the day, when it’s light But when March comes and spring begins, that's the time to get up
‘at 7.00, have a yoghurt and fruit juice for breakfast, and
0 jogging!
