Diet Plan
Weight loss relies on math. Each gram of the three major nutrient types below provides the listed calorie count:
• Proteins: 4
• Carbohydrates: 4
• Fats: 9

Eat less calories per day than your physical activities burn. Dropping 1 or 2 pounds weekly is best for your health. To lose a pound of fat, work off 3,500 more calories than you ingest in a week. Subtract 500 to 1000 calories from your daily caloric intake, expend that many extra calories, or combine both strategies. Calorie-counting and fitness-tracker apps report calories you consume and expel through exercise.

Record everything you eat and drink daily, using each entry to guide the next day’s consumption level. Filling out your diary honestly will upgrade how you approach revising your diet. Avoiding junk and processed foods lets you enjoy larger quantities of healthy options without weight gain. Eliminating favorites as forbidden is unnecessary. Just relish them in moderation occasionally instead.

Workout Apparel
For water aerobics, cute Swimsuits Direct plus-size bathing suits will inspire you to achieve your New Year’s fitness resolution. Select from trendy tankini, one-piece, and two-piece styles. Stretch fabrics and adjustable straps will help your choices accommodate your transforming figure.

If you prefer workouts like running, treadmills, or weight training, comfortable active swimwear can double as gym clothes. Ordering various fashionable yet functional pieces like tankini or bra tops and hoodies with pants or shorts will encourage you to keep your new year resolutions to look and feel better.

Aquatic Exercises
Pool workouts are non-impact activities offering dual benefits. You’ll sink if you don’t move constantly — doing cardio. Water is around 800 times more dense than air, applying continuous resistance to your muscles — as strength training. Staying level and balanced in water requires exerting all four limbs. That exercises underworked arm muscles while developing your lower back and core’s deep stabilizing muscles.

Doing the butterfly stroke for an hour burns the most calories, ranging from 1,024 calories if you tip the scale at 205 down to 649 calories if you weigh 130 pounds. Next highest is an hour of freestyle swimming. Find your body weight and stroke speed below to determine used calories:

• 205 pounds: 931 calories fast; 651 slow
• 180 pounds: 817 fast; 572 slow
• 155 pounds: 704 fast; 493 slow
• 130 pounds: 590 fast; 413 slow

Apply the fast freestyle numbers above to the breaststroke and slow speed figures to the backstroke. An hour of water aerobics purges 720 calories if you weigh 155 pounds.

Other Cardio Options
Consider the highest burning activities below with approximate calories a 160-pound woman expends per hour:

• Running 8 mph: 861 calories
• Jumping rope: 861
• Tae kwon do: 752
• Stair treadmill: 657
• Jogging 5 mph: 606
• Rollerblading: 548
• High-impact aerobics: 533
• Racquetball: 511
• Backpacking: 511
• Cross-country skiing: 496

Weight Lifting
Skipping strength training is a bad idea because weight-bearing drills are key to improving your figure’s proportions. Using kettlebell, dumbbell, or resistance band exercises, focused strength activities build muscles. Schedule two weekly total-body workouts or devote the first session to your upper half and the second to your lower.

Training Techniques
Interval training: Want to burn more calories while boosting overall fitness? Try the versatile interval training approach. Exert yourself during almost any high-intensity cardio activity like jumping rope for a pre-set time as brief as 30 or 60 seconds. Then rest for roughly the same period before repeating.

Circuit training: Do one exercise and start another immediately without taking a break. Combining cardio and strength movements during circuit training prevents boredom and overwhelmed feelings that could coax you into quitting.

Diversity and Rewards
Repetitive routines can become monotonous, so be adventurous. Trying different healthy eating options, exercises, and workout techniques will increase your motivation and calorie-burning abilities, enhancing your bathing beauty shape. Reward your achievements with anything besides regretful fried and sugary treats. Better choices include new swimwear, vacations, massages, and makeovers.
