Before you embark on your fitness journey, it is important to start with small improvements to your everyday habits. Try to steadily increase your physical activity during the build-up towards a fitness holiday, as this will provide a good basis from which to boost your strength and stamina with challenging fitness classes and outdoor workouts. Incorporate these small steps into your regular routine, like walking to work instead of taking the bus and preparing meals in advance instead of a making last minute, unhealthy choices.
 

2. Prepare your stomach properly

Reduce your indulgent dependencies early so that a weight loss holiday will not be such a shock to your system. The right bodily preparation will make it easier for your mind to adjust to the reduction in calories and high-intensity exercise programmes. Learn how to feed your stomach the right foods on a nutrition friendly retreat, so that your personalised diet plan can be easily incorporated into your regular eating patterns and keep boosting your metabolism.

3. Find the programme for you

Do a little fitness research beforehand and find out which weight loss programme is right for you. Go to a few classes in your local area to feel how each form of exercise effects your body. This will help you to select the most suitable retreat for you to get into shape on holiday, as each luxury destination offers a wide range of cardiovascular fitness classes, so you want to have a safe and healthy understanding of what will best enhance your weight loss journey.

4. Work hard, see results

The best way to see rapid and motivational weight loss results is on a bootcamp retreat, where you will feel inspired to slim down and tone up with exciting activities including Pilates, boxing and beach circuit training. This is a great workout environment as you will be supported by others going through the same challenging experiences and be spurred on to work harder to compete with both them and yourself. Raise your heart rate, don’t give into the pain and you will start to see your hard work pay off.

5. Don’t get disheartened

Nothing is more satisfying than witnessing your own body transformation. However, a weight loss journey is never easy nor void of injury setbacks and mental struggles. We recommend that you continue persevering because each day will become a little bit easier as you come ever closer to reaching your ideal weight. Mix up your workouts on one of our exclusive Fusion Fitness holidays, where you can combine exciting 1-to-1 fitness activities like TRX and beach cardio with meditation and healing massages to keep your mind and body on track.
