10 Tips To Have Fun And Still Come Out Shining

1 FIGHT FLU

Your new power breakfast? Butternut squash. Thanks to its ridiculously high levels of beta-carotene (which is then converted into vitamin A), as well as vitamin C, it’s one big immunity- boosting, liver supporting, collagen-pumping powerhouse. Steam it and spread it onto gut-friendly sourdough, then top with nuts and seeds for a protein hit. Add a little honey to sweeten.

2 TRAIN SMARTER

The easiest way to keep up your fitness when you’re doing more bar work than barre work? HIIT. Research” has shown that these workouts (which last around half a minute, with you working at maximum capacity) have the same heart-health and muscle-tone benefits as longer, moderate intensity exercise workouts, even when participants only exercised for seven minutes. Do three sessions a week in December and you’ll be ready to gym it hard again in the New Year.

3 SEEK OUT SUNSHINE

While the sun may be shining bright outside, you still need a constant hit of vitamin D. Why? lt’s a bone strengthener — meaning there’s less chance of breaking something during this active season — and topped-up levels also reduce the risk of respiratory tract infections. Try a multivitamin supplement, before you get busy running errand after errand!
