Don’t go to the gym this winter!

We all know that exercise is good for health. So on January 1st we often start the New Year with a good resolution: to go to the gym three times a week. But what happens? The first week we go three times a week, the second we go twice, and the third week we stop going. The same thing happens with diets. After Christmas we start a new health eating plan. We are very enthusiastic at first – but after only three weeks, we stop.

Carl Harris, a personal trainer, says this is because winter is the wrong time of the year to start new exercise routines and diets. “In the winter the days are short and dark, and it’s cold outside. Our bodies want food and sleep, not diets and exercise.” His advice for people who want to start a healthy lifestyle in January is to make small changes. “Try to cut out chocolates and cakes for three days a week – but don’t eliminate them completely. Go for short walks during the day, when it’s light. But when March comes and spring begins, that’s the time to get up at 7:00, have a yogurt and juice for breakfast, and go jogging!”
