Four Health And Fitness Presents You Can Ask For This Christmas

You can spend all year eating healthily and exercising regularly

, but as soon as winter hits and Christmas comes around, it's so easy for all of your hard work to go out the window.

Not only do you generally overindulge food-wise with Christmas dinners, Boxing Day leftovers and New Year's Day celebrations, but you can consume more alcohol than you seem to have done all year.

And that's not taking into consideration the chocolates, sweets and bottles of wine that you're likely to receive as presents off people.

Whilst no one is saying you shouldn't enjoy yourself at Christmas, it's too easy to overindulge without having the lure of presents that are edible and particularly tempting and therefore if you can remove these from the presents that you receive, you'll help yourself out when it comes to staying fit and healthily.

Now, as people will be asking what to get you if you've said that you don't want any chocolates or alcohol, you can ensure you stay as motivated as possible by asking for health and fitness related presents and the following four are all great examples for every budget.

1. Free gym pass - depending on how much you have spent on others at Christmas depends on the length of the free gym pass that you can ask for, but whether it's for a full year or just one or two months, having a gym pass that allows you to attend for free is a great present as you don't have to ask yourself whether you can afford to exercise in the gym and you can simply go and enjoy the workout session.

2. Healthy living cook book - the problem that a lot of people have with getting fit and healthy is that when it comes to cooking, they know what they should and shouldn't eat, but they don't know how to prepare the ingredients that they should eat in an appealing way.

Therefore, by asking for a healthy living cook book, you'll instantly have at your finger tips a wide selection of recipes that you can choose from any day of the week and know that all of them will be healthy and appetising.

3. Juicer / smoothie maker - over the past few years, it's been drilled into everyone in the UK that we should be eating five portions of fruit or vegetables a day to help towards a healthy, well-balanced diet.

And although a lot of people do manage to eat their five portions each day, it can be a difficult process, especially if you find it a struggle to eat even remotely healthily.

The answer?

A smoothie maker.

All you have to do is throw in a few portions of your favourite fruit or vegetables, blend together and you've got yourself a healthy, nutritious drink that goes towards your five portions of fruit or vegetables each day.
