Festive Fitness Guide: Easy Body Workout Tips to Shed Those Extra Kilos Post Diwali!

Festive Fitness Guide

The festive month, with a little chill in the air and bright lighting in the neighbourhood, feels so exciting, isn’t it?  But what are those festivities without that extra dose of sweetness? Festivities often lead to mindless snacking on fries, sweets, oily food and more. While it may feel hard to resist eating to your heart’s content, it is always good to be mindful of all the extra kilos we consume during the festive season.

Before your guilt makes you google “weight loss” after consuming all the lip smacking dishes, here are some easy tips to keep your weight in check. Following these at-home workout steps, you can savour all the sweetness and enjoy your festivals guilt-free!

But First Detox Yourself 

Before getting started with the real workout, it’s time to get rid of all the oily food and sweets you have eaten during family dinners and card parties. In essence, after a week of eating unhealthy food, begin your day with eating healthy and non-oily food. You can begin with some healthy drink or juice, eating more fruits as mid-day snacks and green vegetables during lunch and dinner. This will help to remove toxins and cleanse your body from within. 

Stretching and Yoga for the Win

This year’s diwali brought an extended weekend of four days which made us couch potatoes, sitting and eating all day long. Now that all the festivities are over and we are slowly returning to our normal routine, yoga is the best way to kickstart your post-festive workout. 

Yoga is a fantastic way to relax, stretch, and tone your body to help you lose weight. What better than waking up an hour earlier before heading to work and starting with some stretching and later focusing on basic poses? Begin with devoting 15-20 minutes in the morning to boost flexibility in your body and burn calories without spending a single penny. To ensure a seamless yoga routine, wear workout clothes like active bottoms and a comfortable t-shirt

Squat Your Way to Losing Weight 

Once you have aced your yoga routine, you can move to a basic workout at home. Squats are the best workout exercise that you can try at home without having to go to the gym and shed the extra calories. You can begin with 2 or 3 sets of squats as a beginner and then gradually increase the sets as you make steady progress with a consistent workout routine.  This workout will help you lose weight, enhance your posture, and improve body flexibility. 

Plank Exercise for Peak Performance

Next up is plank exercise in case you ever get bored of squats. Plank is another basic yet very effective abs workout that helps to tone your upper and lower body parts. Moreover, if you wish to make your posture even better then you have to include planks in your daily workout routine. To ace this workout, you have to be patient with small wins as they can’t be achieved in one single day.

To begin with, you can start with a plank exercise for 30 seconds. Yes, you heard it right. It may sound less but balancing your body weight for this little time is challenging. Once you can balance your body, you can slowly add more time. This exercise is a great one for toning your body parts and also helps with shedding weight around the belly area. Ensure wearing the right workout clothes to focus on your exercise without distractions. A perfectly fitted sports bra and tight-fitting leggings are the right fit to help you amp up the workout game.

Conclusion 

Getting back to a normal routine after a long festive break can be overwhelming. But as they say, one thing at a time! By staying consistent and having little discipline, you can easily follow these easy exercises at home and shed that unwanted weight without much hassle. With the right diet and regular workout, you will not only lose weight but also feel more energized and consistent. A fitter and healthier version awaits you!
