Don't go to the gy gym in the winter!
We all know that exercise is good for your health, So on
January 1st we often start the New Year with a.good
resolution — 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
Carl Harris, 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 desserts 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 yogurt and fruit juice for breakfast, and
go | Jogging I"
