We may be “chilling” in the middle of winter, but summer is fast approaching and the need for the ultimate summer body is once again going to pop up. So why not make it a habit now and surprise everyone with your incredibly toned physique with these kettlebell exercises?<\/p>\n
Heard this expression before? Well, it’s 100% true. Research has found that exercise<\/a> habits formed during the colder months are more likely to stick. So if you are able to stay on track and avoid the temptation of hearty comfort foods and binging on junk food, then this behaviour will translate into the summer months where sundowners after work and weekend braais tend to take their toll.<\/p>\n Studies have also found that exercising when it is cold jumpstarts your metabolism as your body works harder to stay warm while powering through a workout. This means that you burn more calories, which is part of the ultimate end goal.<\/p>\n While toned arms and legs are an essential part of any workout<\/a>, there is one area of the body which is notorious for being indicative of your fitness level \u2013 your tummy area. Nothing screams fitness freak quite like a toned set of abs. And no, we are by no means saying that you should only focus on this area. On the contrary, most exercises when performed correctly will assist in demolishing that unwanted belly fat.<\/p>\nThe epitome of being in shape<\/strong><\/h2>\n
