The days are colder and shorter now, which can make it harder to keep active. Still, there are dozens of ways to stay active and keep fit during the winter months. Remember, it's much easier to stay in shape through the season than to get into shape when spring rolls around. If you do nothing, you'll face an uphill battle once winter's over, and you certainly don't want that. Take control of your fitness now, and you'll be in great shape for bikini season. Follow these tips:
1. Stay active indoors. Just because you're indoors doesn't mean you have to become a couch potato. Get up and move! You can bring a couple of pieces of exercise equipment into your home and use these regularly. Or you can join the local gym and make use of their facilities. Your community may have indoor ice rinks, roller rinks and swimming pools; consider making good use of these. Another option is to commit to walking at the indoor shopping mall – just remember, you're there to exercise, not shop! If you like to dance, then join (or start) an informal dance group.
