Coach Rho's 5 Fitness Tips

Carnival is coming, and Coach Rho is here with some top tips for ensuring your stamina and waistline are at their all-time best this season!

1. First things first: Stay hydrated. Ensure your body is getting the hydration it needs by drinking at least 2.5 litres of water a day.

2. (Cheat sheet: if you're peckish for a treat, drink 10 sips of water first, then wait 15 minutes before grabbing that snack to see if you're really hungry, or just dehydrated).

3. A side of vegetables is always possible. Always grab or cook some veggies to go with your meals, to get those extra nutrients.

4. Get ready to chip down the road by hitting at least 10,000 steps a day. (A quick trick: whether shopping or off for a stroll, walk for 30 minutes daily).

5. Soca music = guaranteed movement. Whether you're cooking, cleaning or getting ready to go out, get some soca on and you'll find yourself pelting that waistline around the house and burning some extra calories.

Give yourself that extra push! Check out www. rockitwithrho.com, and come and rock it at one of our workout classes before Carnival.

With just a matter of weeks to go, these top five tips are both realistic and achievable. Give them a spin, and let me know how you get on.
