I believe that a fitness routine needs to be fun for you to stick with it. One way to keep things fun and fresh is to shake them up for different times of year. In an effort to support that spirit we are enjoying Twelve Days of Fitness for the holidays.

As we go through this celebration we will hold those extra holiday pounds at bay and establish a fresh set of healthy habits to carry you into the new year.

At the end of this 12 day celebration you will find yourself in a healthier place than you started and armed for 2017 with a set of tools to keep building on these healthy habits.

On the fifth Day of Fitness my true love gave to me five tricks to chase winter colds away.

Holiday colds are no fun, but all the extra activity and stress around this time of year weakens our immune systems. What to do?

The first trick to avoid colds or flu is to schedule rest – get enough sleep at night, squeeze in a nap once in awhile.

The second trick to keep cold bugs at bay is to keep your house at a steady temperature. As outdoor temperatures fluctuate between warm and cold your body can get stressed constantly adjusting.

The third tip is to keep your exercise routine going. Your body will respond to small schedule upsets more easily if your overall routine is close to normal.

Tricks four and five involve the products below that help keep me and my family feeling great as we celebrate the holidays together. I am excited to share them with you.

Herbalife Herbal Tea Concentrate – a cup of warm green tea soothes your throat and gives you some extra antioxidants to help fight off stray bugs.
