4 STEPS TO A TOTAL SHAPE-UP
Looking svelte requires a holistic approach towards eating and exercising. Add a little help from Jean Yip Slimming and you will be well on your way to achieving your desired silhouette.
The New Year’s here and your mind’s made up. You are determined to whip your body into shape this time. Weight management takes effort and the will to adopt permanent lifestyle changes. To get the body you’ve always wanted, start paying attention to the following aspects.
1 Mindful eating
The adage “you are what you eat” rings true. Watch your food intake as many people tend to eat more than they really need. Fortunately, there are ways to curb overeating. Try drinking a
glass of water or eating a fibre-rich apple before each
meal. As both make you feel full faster, the tendency to overeat is lower. Being hydrated also boosts the metabolism
by up to three per cent.
2 Work it
Diversify your workouts. You’re less likely to stop or slack off on exercise when you are enjoying yourself. Variety adds spice to your routine and gives you a chance to work different parts of your body. Another way to ensure you do work out is to make plans to exercise with different groups of people at different times of the week. Plus, make it a point to take the stairs instead of the lift at the office and at home. Just climbing a few flights a day can help whip you into shape.
3 Sculpt & shape
Once you have your workout routine and diet down pat, taking part in Jean Yip Slimming’s Formula Plus Programme can further address your problem areas and help sculpt your desired figure. A professional consultant will do a body analysis and customise the programme to your needs.
Problem areas will undergo a slimming and toning session for 30 minutes. This is followed by a steam bath to enhance circulation and prep the body for Jean Yip Slimming’s signature Body Cleansing Treatment. This takes 45 minutes and includes the application of an exclusive detox mix followed by thermal (heat) therapy to purge your body of toxins, excess water and unwanted fatty acids.
Each session lasts a total of 150 to 180 minutes and a programme of at least 10 sessions is recommended for customers to enjoy good results.
4 Sleep away
Here’s a reason to turn in half an hour earlier every night: Sleep has a direct impact on the hormones that regulate the sensation of hunger that controls how you burn and store fat, as well as how your body maintains muscle mass. When your hormones are balanced, the tendency to overeat and gain weight is reduced.
