Maintaining in perfect shape during holidays

Published

on

Maldives Promotion House – After the festive season is over, it is essential you get back in shape, and rid of that extra holiday weight in time for your vacation in the tropical islands. After all, you are going to be wearing minimal clothing, and mostly bikinis and swimsuits in the sunny, remote Maldivian resorts.

These islands scattered across the Indian Ocean are like small emerald green gems across a deep blue velvety background. The islands are filled with soft white sands, with an outer layer of sparkling crystal clear waters surrounding the island.

Guests have the freedom to enjoy an early morning walk around the island, to keep fit during their holidays. It will be especially rewarding because you will get to witness the most beautiful sunrise ever as you get your work out in, burning calories without even realizing it. But just to be on the safe side, it is advisable that you wear appropriate shoes for the walk, and start off at a very slow pace.

After a walk around the island, head to the breakfast buffet to kick start your day with a healthy, delicious meal. Always remember, breakfast is the most important meal of the day so be sure to include some fruits, yoghurt, and proteins. Breakfast will give you the energy you need for the day, but it is also important to have small meals during the day, and not eat a whole lot in one sitting.

During the day, take a few minutes to swim a few laps in the pool, or go snorkeling along the house reef of the island/resort. The exercise will be as good as it will be magical. The array of vibrantly colored fish swimming alongside, the uniquely shaped soft corals will make you want sit still and memorize each and every moment you pass under the water. Unknowingly, you are burning off calories swimming, or if you are snorkeling, by doing the laps from your legs, building your legs into fantastic shape.

For a bit more vigorous work out, try your luck at surfing. This will give your entire body the perfect work out. Even if you can just paddle out on the board, you get a very satisfactory work out dodging the waves. Work outs in the ocean are usually very relaxing afterwards as you can just lie back and float in the water, giving your body all the rest and relaxation it needs.

Resorts usually tend to have different beach games and out door games available, so guests are more than welcome to enjoy a game of beach volleyball, or tennis everyday. Guests can bond with other visitors and enjoy the game while you work on your body.

For an end to a very active and hectic day at the beach, one might try doing a bit of Yoga during sunset. The sunset deck of your villa over looking the turquoise lagoon, or in many cases, resorts will offer Yoga for interested tourists, along with a fully qualified instructor. Breathe in the fresh air, take in the serenity and the calmness surrounding you. Dwell in the tranquility that is the island and breathe out as you do your stretches. Come out feeling rejuvenated and refreshed.

With these exercises, you won’t feel the need to tuck in your tummy, or feel insecure about your body in a bathing suit. Fitness instructors guarantee that these are some of the best ways to get you looking fit in your sexy bathing suit, and feeling even fresher and fitter, your body, mind and soul.
