Below are 5 easy tips to help you get bikini ready for this summer.
First though we should talk about what “Bikini Ready” means.
Feeling Confident This Summer
Heading into summer time spent at the beach is definitely on the cards for people.
This means for a lot of us getting out our favourite bikini from last summer or even picking a new one that is “fashion”.
Whether this can be a happy process or one that you can dread depends on a few things with the one main being how bikini ready you feel.
Becoming confident in your bikini or in situations where you have to wear revealing clothes (shorts) is more about your own confidence in your body rather than what you have to look like.
Bikini ready should always be about taking stock of your body and never comparing it to someone else.
It should only be something that you have put the work into and feel confident with the results you have achieved.
If you are feeling less than confident about your body at the moment our tips which should help bring back your confidence 😀
Top 5 Ways To Get Bikini Ready
1.Lift Weights
Feeling good about our body comes down to having less jiggly bits and having more firm bits. This means having more muscle and less fat in general.
Lifting weights is how we beat areas becoming jiggly and staying firm.
There are 3 accepted ways in which we build muscle with resistance training
- Mechanical Tension – The amount of tension placed on the muscle by the weight you are lifting. Achieved by bigger movements such as the Squat, Bench Press and Deadlift.
- Muscular Damage – The amount of damage you cause a muscle when you lift. Multiple exercises for a certain muscle group will cause that muscle to grow.
- Metabolic Stress – Known as “The Pump”, flood your muscle with blood to create the effect. Think the exercises that you do for arms, shoulders and glutes that make you feel the burn.
2. Flexible Nutrition
Being Flexible in your approach to nutrition as defined by Lyle Mcdonald means that “you are not expecting absolute perfection and strictness in your dieting behaviour”.
You should realise that small/large lapses in your diet are not a big deal in the scheme of things.
Come up with a plan that takes into account your lifestyle, the foods you like and the can be maintained.
3.Give It Time
The progress we want and the place we want to reach must be viewed as a journey. This journey can have milestones along the way, or destinations, however the journey never ends.
When you start trying to make positive changes to your body or health the process is never static and always fluid.
Progress at times will come easier than others, it is just important to know that everything will take time.
4.Keep Accountable
There is a reason that “sense of belonging” is one of Maslow’s Hierarchy of needs.
Keeping accountable is much easier in a training environment where your victories are celebrated.
Also you need people and coaches who are there for you when things are not as well either.
Training and nutritional progress is measured in weeks and months
Being with people who are moving forward and progressing ensures your own progress.
5.”Snowball Effect”
Working on smaller habits will tend to create momentum and stickability when trying to create habits in general.
Wherever we are in how we feel about our body and fitness we got there via the habits and routines we have in everyday life.
Use the “snowball effect” to attack the habits that offer the path of least resistance.
Changing your body and keeping those results come from having habits and routines that are ingrained to your everyday life.
It is the action takers that will move forward and progress to having the body they deserve and want.
