Shianne Lombard's fitness tips:
- Try something completely different than you have done in the past:
Basics: kick boxing, pilates, yoga, spinning, salsa or hip hop dancing.
Advanced: trx suspension training, indoor rock climbing, trapeze or arial work.
- Set a date for an event such as a 5k run/walk, a mini-triathalon:
So you have something to focus on instead of just saying "i wanna lose weight". Then you will also have an amazing sense of accomplishment!-make the city your gym!!! use the amazing outdoor activities the city has to offer, bike or hike mt. tam, tiburon and take the ferry back etc!
- Have a specefic measurable goal: focus on inches:
body fat or the way your clothes fit, not just the scale. get friends, family, and coworkers involved so they can motivate and keep you accountable.
- Start a hobby:
Salsa dancing, tennis, raquetball, social sport teams, surfing, sailing.
- Be more active:
Bike to work, take stairs at work, sit on ball at desk instead of chair.
- Plan group activities:
Plan one physical activity to complete as a group with your family or friends.
- Invest in your health:
Have a personal trainer educate you on what exercises, machines, reps, sets and weight is right for you! then you will always know moving forward and not feel intimidated going to the gym.
