Winter workout: How to shed the extra kilos gained

Winter workout: How to shed the extra kilos gained

Neeraj Mehta, fitness expert and director of GFFI Fitness Academy, is of the opinion that working out during winters is the best way to exercise. "Although it may sound less desirable but winters are the perfect season to work out and shed some extra weight. Believe it or not, outdoor workout during winters can have positive effect on your health and mind.
Before going for a workout session in the open air, Mehta cautions that a proper warm-up is necessary. "While working out make sure you dress up properly. It is advised to wear layers of clothes, and right shoes. Before going for session it is recommended to do warm-up inside, so that you do not feel cold when you step outside. In fact, it is highly recommended that you should concentrate on a good warm up, so that your muscles are properly heated up and ready for your exercise session in this weather," he advises.

Also, he says, one must keep the body hydrated. "You don't see yourself sweating during the winters, but that does not mean you actually don't. Drink plenty of water. Exercising during morning or evening is favourable to your body, but on some occasions you may not have a choice in choosing your favourite time for exercise during this season, as there may be colder morning and foggy evenings. Don't let this be an excuse to skip, go for an afternoon session. Be careful in what you are eating as your taste buds may crave for more carbs. Good news is that you have more choices of veggies and fruits in this season," says Mehta.
