Sail Through The Christmas Party Season With Contours Gym

It is always a bit harder over the winter months to keep up our fitness regime, with those cold mornings and dark evenings, but now that daylight saving is here, we really have no excuse not to institute a fitness programme which we will find easy to keep up over the months leading up to Christmas and beyond.  The Christmas party season can be a bit of a challenge as well, with extra calories on offer more often than not, but it can be a fairly simple exercise to work off those Christmas party kilos. As the team at Contours Gym say, “The quickest way to blow off that extra sugar from the drinks and food the night before is to WORK IT OFF baby! It may feel like that last thing you want to do but we promise it is exactly what your body needs. Our bodies are machines, give them too much fuel and you know what happens – it’s stored as fat. BUT if you put that extra fuel to good use as soon as you can, you’ll shuttle the extra glucose 9sugar) into your muscles and burn it off 100 times faster.

The Contours Gym team recommend scheduling a hard work-out for the day after each party or over indulgence, and a pump style class would be perfect, or anything that involves resistance training. Or better yet, they recommend booking a personal trainer for the season to push you even further (and make it harder to back out!). Contours Gym also have the philosophy that nothing is off limits, and the easiest way to bow a healthy lifestyle is by thinking you’re not allowed something. The well-known motto of ‘everything in moderation’ allows people to have a healthy attitude to food throughout their lives, remembering that we are in this for the long game, not just to lose a kilo or two for now.

Contours is more than just a gym – they are all about women helping and supporting each other – and they have been doing it in New Zealand for over twenty years. Fitness, health, weight loss and looking fantastic and feeling great – whether you’re searching for a new body or just a balanced life, the friendly Contours team are there to help. In addition, their branches offer a range of other high quality, female-focused services, such as personal training, hair, beauty and nutrition therapy.
