During confinement apparently we have gained about four or five kilos. Although there are those who have maintained their weight or even lost weight, the rule in general has been to gain weight because we could not go out to do sports and we ate perhaps out of boredom. That is why now we have to lose the extra kilos that we have taken to return to our weight and maintain ourselves.
We are going to give you the guidelines for those kilos to go away permanently. Returning to good habits is essential, especially since we have forgotten them for a while and the body and our health easily suffer. Also, this will help us feel better and avoid feelings such as anxiety.
Think of some real goals
We should not think that we are going to lose all those kilos in two days and in an easy way, because something like this will only lead us to failure. When we do not see immediate results, we will get discouraged and we will leave it, which is the fault that the vast majority of people have. First of all the getting a healthy and strong body is a matter of patience and work daily, so the first thing to do is raise awareness. It is good to have some control of the results, with a calendar in which we can set realistic goals. From losing a kilo per week to being able to do a certain exercise table or running every week for ten more minutes. These goals will clearly lead us to our destination.
Find a sport for yourself
Not everyone likes the same type of sport, as we are not always given the same things. So we should find one that is suitable for us. That is, a sport that we liked and that was perfect for our way of being. There are so many different sports, from swimming in a pool to lifting weights to running to cycling. Try any of them and find the one that suits you, what you like and what you can keep over time. It will always require effort, but it will be less if we like what we do.
You have to be constant
If we want to lose the extra kilos in a healthy way, the only thing we can do is have patience and perseverance. Is a long-distance race that cannot be achieved in two days. So what we have to do is try to do something active every day. If we cannot do intense sport we will have to walk for example. This way we will always subtract calories.
Change sport
It is also bad to always do the same thing, since our body tends to adapt quickly to the effort. In this way every time you burn fewer calories if we always do the same sport. What we have to do is trying to change sports or workouts. If we are going to run we can run short and intense races one day and other days do longer races. This will make our body continue to exert itself and lose weight, gain muscle and improve its capabilities.
Take care of your diet
The other important point when it comes to losing weight is undoubtedly taking care of our diet. It is a key point, because It is no use doing a lot of sport if we eat badly afterwards. In this case, we should try to eat protein to build muscle, eat fruits and vegetables with antioxidants and also carbohydrates to have strength for sports. In short, what we should banish from our diet are pre-manufactured products, excess salt, saturated fat and sugar, which only hurts us.
