Can you believe that we’re heading into the triple digits in Phoenix within days?! It’s crazy to think that summer is here. If you haven’t yet had the opportunity to get your summer body ready, you might be a little nervous. After all, swimsuits seem to show off a little more than you may want to reveal. Never fear! We have some tips to help you get into bikini shape in no time.
1. Hydrate!
With higher temperatures, we naturally need to drink more water. But did you know that water is important for your overall health?
You should be drinking nearly a gallon of water each day. It will help you stay full (thereby avoiding those extra calories) and rejuvenate your skin so it’s supple and ready to bare in all your poolside finery.
2. Mix Up Your Workout
Are you feeling stuck doing the same thing at the gym time after time? Your body may feel the same as your mind and be hitting a plateau. We need a change from time to time to overcome those pesky plateaus and get jumpstarted. If you’re aiming for an awesome summer body, this is a great time to mix things up.
Check out websites for different workouts or talk to your gym’s personal trainer. While you may know what to do, generally speaking, we all need a little help from time to time. Getting some tips and suggestions may be just what you need to make a difference.
3. Reassess Your Diet
We all know that diet is the top consideration in losing weight. Your summer body might be there, but it’s hidden under a few extra pounds. Talk to a nutritionist or do your own research on different types of eating plans. Every body is different, so that means you have to look at how you, specifically, respond to food.
There are tons of stories of people finding huge success with diets that include vegan, vegetarian, Paleo, and low carb, but you’ll never know what works best for you until you try. Of course, be safe about this.Remember that starving yourself or completely cutting out a food group could rob your body of vital nutrients.
4. Have a Summer Body Attitude
Nothing makes a bigger difference in how you look to others than how you feel about yourself. Whether you’re size 2 or size 22, you can exude confidence and radiance this summer. When you change your outlook, you’re likely to feel a whole lot better about yourself.
If shifting your mindset is hard to do by sheer willpower alone, consider some self-help books. Therapy can work as well, whether one-on-one or in a group setting. Even courses, such as Landmark Education, can help re-center you and help make a difference not only inside your own head but to others around you.
5. Check Out CoolSculpting
One great way to make a difference in your body is with CoolSculpting. This non-invasive procedure actually freezes fat cells in targeted parts of your body. Clients focus on abs, hips, thighs, arms, and even double chins. Within weeks of your fat-freezing appointment, the frozen fat will be reabsorbed into your body. That leaves you with firmer skin, lost inches, and looser fitting clothes.
No matter what you weigh, you can create an amazing summer body that stops traffic. Bodify is here to help you make that final difference. Contact us to learn more about how we can help.
