7 Tips for transforming your body this January

We spoke with Ciaran Ruddock MSc, co-founder and head of strength and conditioning at Fitter, Faster, Stronger gyms about his tips for anyone looking to transform their body this January. Ciaran has given us these seven tips to get in your best shape.

1. Lift more weights with the aim of getting stronger and increasing your muscle mass.
2. Eat until satisfied not full. For me this meant eating out of a bowl instead of plate.
3. Eat more green vegetables. With exception of breakfast, every meal for me included at least one serving of green vegetables. The reason for this was that they helped to fill me and the numerous healthy benefits. How do you think Popeye became so strong?!
4. Make your goal a high priority.
5. Steady state cardio can help you to be leaner and fitter. I added one day of steady state cardio to my weekly training routine.
6. This helped to drop body fat, decreased my resting heart rate and aerobic capacity.
7. Increase your daily movement. The more you can walk, stand or cycle throughout the day the better. This summer I used a fit bit to track my daily activity and noticed that when I moved more my body composition improved and I felt better.
8. Enjoy the process and constantly learn and adjust your approach based on your results and how you feel.
