How do I get fit at home?
- Start your day early, for instance, 5.30 am
- Drink a glass of lukewarm water
- Eat something light such as brown bread, oats, or seasonal fruit
- Drink a cup of green tea or black coffee without sugar
- Run for 15-20 mins in the nearby park or apartment complex or treadmill at home
- Do basic stretching (warm-up) before getting into weight training or yoga
- Start with push-ups, squat, plank and pull-ups (3-4 minutes each workout)
- There are other workouts such as lunges, jump squats, side planks, sumo squats, triceps extensions, etc.
- Eat something nutritious and healthy for breakfast. Ensure your breakfast is the biggest meal of the day.
- Avoid junk and processed foods
- Avoid packaged fruit juices
- Try to maintain a healthy eating lifestyle 6 days a week, and avoid outside/restaurant food to the minimum
- Take smaller plates, and eat in moderation. Eating is not a competition, but a requirement to lead a healthy life.
- For mid-morning and evening snacks try seed trail mix, fruits, fruit salad, tea/coffee
- Your lunch just like breakfast should be healthy and nutritious. Lunch should be smaller than breakfast and should include good complex carbs, protein, and fat.
- Your dinner should be the smallest meal of the day.
- By the end of the day, ensure you drink a minimum of 2 liters of water.
- Sleep for 7–8 hours and maintain the sleep timings.
- Be consistent. Health doesn't change overnight.
