Summer bodies are built in the winter and spring; this period is crucial for setting fitness goals, planning workouts and adopting healthy routines to achieve your ideal summer body. So, do you want to get ready for summer? Start by defining your goals, discuss suitable workouts with your trainer and make a plan that aligns with your preferences and activities that you like to do over the summer. Starting the work in the winter allows for consistent and sustainable progress, and avoids quick-fix tactics that may lead to failure.
Remember that healthy bodies are made through slow and steady efforts, which emphasise the importance of long-term commitment and moderation in lifestyle choices.
Some effective exercises that can help you achieve your summer body include:
- Weight reverse lunge step up
- Bicycle abs
- Plant row (split reps between right and left arm)
- Power deck squat
- Warrior pose
These exercises target different muscle groups and can contribute to building strength, endurance and toning your body for summer. Incorporating a mix of cardio and strength training exercises during the colder months can help you stay active, maintain fitness levels and work towards your desired summer body,
Kickstart your journey towards the body that you want to be proud of this summer by setting clear goals, embracing a variety of workouts, and stay consistent to see the progress towards your fitness objectives.
