Use the rest of the holidays in favor of your workout

You count the days for the holidays to arrive. Being able to sleep and wake up later, spend a few hours alone in laziness, forget the obligations and just think of fun. The rule also applies to your body, which thanks a truce in the training rhythm. "In a routine of heavy training, the rest is very positive", says personal trainer Ana Paula Mori, from the Sports Advisory Movilela. "You can accelerate your recovery from injury and you also have a chance to try other types of exercises."

Those who maintain a constant training pace can hardly stop. If this is your case, use the days off to try sports or practices that you do not have, such as yoga or pilates, and enjoy stretching.

It's also worth having a talk with your teacher and asking him for new sports tips, which you can practice while away from the gym. It may even be that one of them goes into his routine, back in the day to day. But do not worry about it at the beginning, the intention is simply to find new ways to keep it off, without so much wear and tear.

It is not recommended to stop the training altogether, especially if you aim for weight control. The chances of gaining weight increase a lot (not only because of the sedentary lifestyle, but also because of the offer of more calorie options at parties).

"If training decreases, there must be a change in diet. increase caloric expenditure, so you can eat a little more. By interrupting the workouts, it is necessary to rethink the intake of calories, "says Ana Paula. Result: weight gain is right.

Another idea to make vacation workouts more enjoyable is to drop worry about the clock. Think of exercise as an alternative to relaxation instead of focusing on improving performance. The stimulus, at this stage, must come from the fun, not the overcoming of results. "As bodybuilding has probably been stopped too, you have to be careful about the movements, avoiding the overload," says the personal trainer.

With a moderate and pressured exercise routine, your body has everything to keep the form while you rest, with an advantage: on returning to regular workouts, there will be no reason to regret weight gain, and still less the difficulty in resuming the previous program of activities. The provision will remain the same, as will your income when the days of laziness end.
