Velca Helps With Those New Year's Resolutions To Get Fit

Every year we start with admirable New Year’s resolutions to lose weight and get pain-free, fit, strong and healthy, and every year we seem to trip and fall before we reach our goals. 2015 is the year to commit to our New Year’s resolutions and Velca Health Centre are there to help with this. Velca is the award winning ‘one stop’ Auckland health centre situated in Howick, just down the motorway from the CBD, and their philosophy is to help their clients to achieve their goal of total wellness so they can operate at 110%. They offer a range of services to correct pain and see their clients down a road of better health and well-being.

This month the super-fit team at Velca Health Centre want their clients to start thinking about getting fit, healthy and in shape for summer, with the emphasis on nutrition, boot camps, Pilates and personal training, focusing on chiro, physio and massage. Now that we are all back from the holidays this is the perfect time to put our New Year’s resolutions into actions and to commit to an all-round fitness regime. These long summer days are perfect for setting the platform for a year-long fitness programme, with more time in the day for exercise, healthy eating and pure motivation. To become healthier, fitter or leaner, whatever the goal, know that one thing is key – nutrition.

The professional and helpful Velca team want people to start thinking about cooler, more summery meals like salads, juices, smoothies and fruits, not to mention the occasional family barbecue as we need to eat foods that are light on the stomach but also nourishing and nutritious. By making simple changes to our diet with what we eat and drink can give us the energy we need to enjoy the beautiful weather to come. The better we feel the happier we are and eating healthy doesn’t mean eating boring food.

It is a well-known fact that drinking at least six litres of water per day is not only good for our health, but can assist in losing weight as well. Drinking plenty of water throughout the day helps us feel full for longer, without needing to eat unhealthy or high caloric snacks to satisfy our hunger cravings. Water also helps us to eat less when we do have a snack, which in turn helps reduce our calorie intake. For more information on Velca Health Centre please go to http://www.velca.co.nz.
