INSIDER TIPS TO REACH YOUR 2019 FITNESS GOALS A NEW YEAR COMES WITH THE OPPORTUNITY FOR A FRESH START AND THE AREAS OF HEALTH AND WELLNESS ARE NO EXCEPTION. First, get really clear on what you actually want to achieve.

Health and fitness goals are often highlighted by dramatic physical transformations as your body changes size and shape in your quest for optimum health. For some, that means putting on some muscle. For others it means getting leaner or losing weight. Here are a few proven tips to help you attain your goals no matter which way you want to go.

IF YOU WANT TO GET BIGGER

IF YOU WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT

For those trying to get bigger or more muscular, the key is to dial in your nutrition. Consider seeing a nutritionist, upping your “clean” calories and determine your optimal protein intake.

Consider eating according to the 80/20 rule. Eat healthy foods 80 per cent of the time and indulge in your favourite treats 20 per cent of the time.

Commit to a program. Don’t program-hop if you’re training solo.

Commit to one and stick it out to the end to see the results. Consider asking a trainer to build you a program can really make a difference.

Find activities you enjoy. Don’t force yourself to run on a treadmill if you prefer hiking outdoors. Make it enjoyable and it won’t feel like work.

Workout in the proper “rep range”. Hypertrophy (muscle growth) doesn’t happen by lifting weights randomly. Again, a certified trainer can really speed up your results by designing an efficient plan.

If you’re wanting to burn fat, the key is to train smart.

HIIT + LSD (High Intensity Interval Training + Long Slow Distance) are ideal ways to reshape your shape.

REWARD YOURSELF An unintended downside to achieving your body transformation goals is having to buy new clothes as your size changes.

That’s why RYU, an urban athletic apparel store in Park Royal offers a unique program for those of us on our personal fitness journey. It’s called the RYU Size Up/Down Guarantee. Here’s how it works. Purchase any RYU garment and if your size changes within a year, bring it back and they will exchange it in your new size for 50% off. Then they’ll donate your old garment to Covenant House, a local non-profit helping people in need. It’s a great way to stay motivated and be rewarded for staying committed to your goals. You can find them in Park Royal’s North Mall unit D120 or shop online at ryu.com.
