Workout: tips getting back in shape after summer holidays

It is already end of summer and it means just one thing - the summer holidays are over and it is time to get back to everyday routines and it is time to get back on a new workout and  fitness schedule, with new goals, aims and challenges!

After a long vacation in South of Italy I will have to catch up with quite a lot of things, especially at fitness and healthy lifestyle level. (I have been working on a new, exciting project and soon will be ready to reviled also to the world - so stay tuned! ) 

I can bet I am not the only one to get back on track so here are some tips to get out of that post-vacation depression and get back in shape.

*Set a reachable goal

The best thing that motivates is setting a clear and obtainable goal. Like loosing 2kg (gained in summer vacations) till winter holiday. (One of my goals too - get in shape for next holiday! so can do that together! )

It can also be a goal to get able to run 5km marathon and participate in The Color Run (the worlds funnest and colorful 5km ). I am going to participate on 6th of September here in Milan! who is in with me?

It also can be a detox or teatox cure to loose weight, clear skin and boost immune system. 

and so on and on, it can be several, important that they are attainable and realistic.

Whatever you choose stick to the plan, track your progress and make a deadline, therefore you will be more motivated and inspired by your own results to keep going.

Set a Goal

My last year gym motivational post before the Color Run!

Wake me up! before you go-go (..RUNNING!)

Buongiorno world! :)
After a company dinner in an adorable Roman restaurant last night I felt too much guilty so I started healthy this morning!
a) woke up at 6:30 to go running
b) had a super healthy breakfast

Healthy breakfast

Really important!!! to eat right and healthy (and not only after workout)! a nice bowl (Always tastes better if eating from your favorite tableware. like my Brazilian breakfast bowl and Blond Amsterdam "Miss Brains" mug. (Love this line of products! and you can buy them online! soo cute!)

so my breakfast was: oat flakes(in hot water) strawberries and dewberries together with fresh mint tea with lime. super antioxidant and full with vitamins and really refreshing, even in summer!
so let's get healthy and fit!8-)

RUN - do it for yourself

This morning I woke up at 6 to restart going to run before going to work.
must say I felt a lot better - more toned and energetic rather than waking up later and just rolling out of bed and do nothing, but breakfast.
The inspiration to keep on running came today also from friend of mine, which I must share with you.. :) hehe

fun, right? even tho'  not sure I would like Ryan, or some other charming exemplar waiting me tired and sweaty at the end of finish line.. but still..
the 2nd one of Ryan motivating me always to work out is THIS :D

isn't it an inspiring pic for a desktop background? :D heheh and plus motivating you to do squat as much as possible to get ready for a beach season :) btw, it is pretty close so watch out of those slutty brownies and tempting cupcakes. better try a homemade, healthy energy bar instead (recipe will follow). some other tips for working out and diet, snacks you may find here.

keep healthy - keep fit and keep on having fun :)
