5 WAYS TO NOT FAIL YOUR FITNESS RESOLUTIONS THIS YEAR? #SuchetaShares

If you take a gym membership in the beginning of every year only to never see the insides of the gym after 3 months then youre not alone. I used to be that person too,?till I discovered these 5 things to keep be fit #BeyondJustExercise

Lets not beat around the bush and lets face it. The No.1 reason that most of us feel unfit is because of all that extra fat that simply refuses to budge no matter how many hours we spent working out in the gym. But what if I told you to exercise your jaws at the dinner table instead!

?Thats?right! And it brings me to...

No. 1. Chew it like you mean it ladies.The mind takes 20 to 30 minutes to get a signal that you are no longer hungry and during that period of time YOU CAN OVEREAT.??Studies showed that chewing your food atleast 30 TIMES?per?mouthful??can help you to consume the right amount of food and thus lesser calories. Now I am not asking you to count, but maybe decide to have your food away from Netflix twice a week and see the difference in your satiety levels. Did you get fuller faster? I can assure you, you will.

No.2 If you’ve been working from home, you’re probably familiar with "The Slump" causing?back pain or neck and shoulder pain. Being fit is also about being devoid of pain . And its time to work on our posture. Its time to fire up that deep core.

The key is to sit on your sit bones. Roll your shoulders back and reach up through the top of your head. Maintain neutral curvature of the spine.?Relax your belly completely, and then breathe out gently as if pulling navel to spine. Feel a gentle hug around the spine. This immediately activates the deep core, supports the spine and helps alleviate the aches and pain. Try it!

Fun Fact for Number 3: Did you know that?digesting protein burns more calories than digesting carbohydrates or fat. Approximately 25 calories for every 100 gram consumed as opposed to only 10-15 calories for carbs or fats. Now if you are wondering?how much protein is ideal for you, then simply start with a daily intake of 0.8 -1 g per Kg of your body weight. So if I am 60 Kgs, I need a minimum of 60 grams of protein. But remember, the more active you are, the protein need keeps increasing to maintain muscle mass. ??

No 4: We are visual beings and same goes for food. Try changing your 12 inch plate for only a 9-inch one. Researchers found that using smaller plates will make you eat 20% to 25% less and thus saving loads of calories without you even noticing it. That was number 4 and now for number 5.

This one is my favourite.

No.5: Sleep to burn fat. Studies showed that when you don’t have enough sleep, the levels of a hormone called cortisol goes up which certainly causes weight gain. So it's recommended to sleep at least?6-8 hours. And add to that we all know that the lack of shut eye followed by that little?late night?movie binge and you can no longer resist the attraction of that little piece of sweet. So the easiest of all fitness hacks. Sleep, Sleep, Sleep!

These are some tried and tested way to "not fail" your fitness resolutions this year. Infact shall we rename it as 5 ways to slay it! #SuchetaShares
