Seven Fitness Tips to Prep for Prom
1/7Work your legs
Focus on toning not only your arms and midsection, but working on the legs! Remember that some prom fashion trends point toward shorter dresses.
2/7Think life-long, not short-term
Try to get at least 60 minutes of movement per day. Training to be fit for just an event doesn't teach life-long habits, so focus on doing activities that you can maintain beyond the big night.
3/7Make time for yoga
Yoga does different things for different people. If you need to lose weight, yoga will make your body look slimmer and healthier. If you're at a healthy weight, it will help you maintain that weight.
4/7Have fun with fitness
Ercise at your own pace and don't compare yourself to others. Everyone is built differently and unique in his or her own way. It's more important to have fun with fitness and enjoy it!
5/7Keep it simple
Celebrities follow a few basic tactics in order to stay in shape: Wear a heart rate monitor, eat in moderation, burn calories, and tone muscles. There's no secret trick!
6/7Fuel up after workouts
After finishing a workout, eat a blend of protein and carbohydrates to help repair and maintain muscle tissue.
7/7Prioritize Fitness
Schedule your workout into your day and make it a priority. You'll feel better knowing you accomplished one of the tasks on your to-do list. Also, getting new fitness gear that you love will provide additional motivation to work out!
