Burning the Christmas calories

Burning the Christmas calories

Fitness expert Josh Salzmann offers fast and effective routines
 

“Some 85% of people mistakenly think running or cycling is the best way to shift pounds, but you can get sensational results

just doing a workout in

front of the TV”, says Josh.

“Even if it’s just for 10 minutes, it’s better than zero minutes. Get yourself an exercise ball for sit-ups and squats, coupled with push-ups on the floor.
 

“Use water bottles to do arm-curls and when you hit the shops, get off the bus two stops earlier and pat yourself on the back for carrying those bags – you’ll have super-svelte arms.

“You have billions of things to do, so create a day-by-day plan for the run-up to Christmas. Mark on your calendar, ‘rest days’ (when you catch up on sleep), ‘fun days’ and ‘virtuous days’ (when you exercise). Writing it down will give you the momentum to follow it through.”
