Are there enough reasons to make a change also? The COVID-19 pandemic could be another serious reason.

Moreover, during this period, the WHO doubled the daily period of recommended moderate exercise each week, from 150 minutes to 300 minutes! Put your health where it belongs, on your daily list of priorities. When you realize the amazing changes that exercise brings to your life, it will be the time when you make the best decision for health, immunity, and longevity: transforming movement into a lifestyle.

If you take a break, it’s harder to restart, but not impossible. Be SMART!

It may be difficult to resume intense physical activity after a break of a few months. Find out what steps you need to take to quickly get back in top shape. First, make sure your goals meet the SMART criteria.

SPECIFIC: It is not enough to say that you want to “be in shape”, you must have a more precise goal. For example: I want to be able to climb 4 floors again without getting tired. Or, more specifically: I want to reach X kilograms!

MEASURABLE: Once you identify the specific goal, make sure you can measure your progress. After all, if you don’t evaluate, you just guess and you never really know if your effort was a success. Are you trying to reach a certain weight? Weigh yourself periodically or take measurements of your body composition.

APPROACH: Regardless of your goal, you need to be confident that you can achieve it. If you are afraid that it is not a very realistic goal, consider dividing the goal into smaller objectives. For example, instead of trying to lose 10 pounds in a month, try to lose only three. He’s even healthier.

RELEVANT: Before you set your goal, think about what you enjoy and start from there. This is also true for smart diets. A good nutritionist will first ask you what you like to eat and will build your new eating plan based on your preferences.

TIME: Goals like “I train to be fit” or “feel good” are vague and without a deadline. You choose a date when you think you will reach the goal. If your goal is to lose weight, then you should know that the doctors’ recommendation is to aim for between 1.5-3 kg less per month.
