GET 15 FIT IN MINUTES
WHAT TO DO
TO sculpt and tone your inner thighs, try a side lying lift, says celebrity personal trainer Nadya Fairweather ( u-shape.co.uk).
Lie on your right side, with your head down flat, resting on your outstretched right arm or a cushion. Make sure to keep your spine as straight as possible. Bend the left leg and put your foot flat on the floor.
Keeping your right leg tight and straight, lift and lower it off the floor 12 to 15 times. Remember to breathe throughout.
Now roll on to your left side and try it with the left leg. Roll back to the right. Aim for three to five sets, with 12 to 15 reps before taking a break.
WHAT TO EAT
TRY swapping your usual bread for a sprouted grain loaf, says nutritionist Shona Wilkinson ( shonawilkinson.com). Whole grains are important to fuel your brain and muscles and the sprouted grain process retains more nutrients, while making them easier to digest — this can help weight management.
Almonds are also a great snack for helping you stay fuller for longer. A 1992 study at The American College of Nutrition showed that women who added 344 calories worth of the nuts to their diet, felt more satisfied without gaining weight.
Apple cider vinegar is a good antiinflammatory and can help reduce water retention. Use as a salad dressing or have a spoonful at mealtimes.
