Lose Those Final Pounds Before Hitting the Beach

Jamaica Beach5 Tips on How to Lose Those Final Pounds Before Hitting the Beach

1.  Supplement your workouts– Before hitting the gym; choose a pre workout that will give you lasting energy and endurance to power through your workout. I drink a Celsius, a negative calorie drink, because it is clinically proven to reduce body fat and boost metabolism. It also tastes great and helps me reach my goals while training.

2.  “RIP It” in the gym– If you go to the gym every day and can’t seem to gain any muscle or shed one pound of body fat. Try to “RIP” it- by resting less in between sets or recovery time, increase intensity of your workout and plan your workout ahead of time. You should not spend half an hour wondering what machines you are going to use, texting or reading a book. Make the most out of each gym session and walk in the door with a plan of attack.

3.  Hold the Salt– Sodium makes the body retain fluid, giving you that “fluffy” appearance. Look at the labels of all the food you want to consume and be careful cautious of what you order when eating out. Ask for your dressings to be on the side and you can even request for the chef to not use salt in your dish. Before you go eat that can of low calorie soup, which seems like the healthier option, read the nutrition label and you will be surprised at the sodium content in a single serving!

4.  Cut the sweet treats– Sugar loaded sweets are a huge setback for any weight loss plan. Try to avoid these treats and eat them only in moderation. The carbohydrate and sugar content of most desserts and candy are way more than you would need in one sitting; therefore it more often than not gets converted into fat. Try a healthier option like a protein shake or Greek yogurt with fresh fruit.

5.  Drink plenty of water– Most people would think that drinking water would only make you look and feel bloated. At first it might but after a few days, your body will become accustomed to the new water and will actually help to lose weight since your stomach will think that it is constantly  full, in turn naturally suppressing your appetite. Many times when you think that you are hungry, you may actually be dehydrated. So rather than snacking away, try downing a tall glass of water and see if you are still hungry 5 minutes alter or if you were just bored. I put a Celsius on-the-go stick in my water because it tastes great and gives me lasting energy!
