It’s safe to say that winter has definitely arrived in (most) South African cities, pushing our motivation to get moving out the door. We’re changing hibernation into an active-nation this winter! Fire up your winter with top tips for winter training! National Product Development Manager for Virgin Active South Africa, Ceri Hannan, gives us his top tips for staying active in winter, even when we really, really don’t want to move from under the covers.
Work out (or in)
People love choice, which is why you’re spoiled with just that with Virgin Active. Whether you’re ready to brave the 5 am chill or want a 5 pm wind down, you can find a workout that works for you on our App or through www.virginactive.coach. With thousands of workouts to choose from, you can train in-club or in your lounge.
Join the club
People like people. When you surround yourself with like-minded people, you’re more motivated to keep going. Booking a slot at a group class is a great way to connect with people who can keep you accountable for your goals.
Find the fun in fitness
It can be daunting to start a new fitness habit in winter, but don’t let it deter you from getting active. Use Ceri’s FAB filter to set you up for success!
Fun: Find the fitness that you find fun!
Achieve: Set measurable, achievable goals.
Belong: Being part of a community goes a long way toward achieving your goals.
Get personal
Group fitness classes are a fantastic way to get moving, stay motivated and meet awesome people. A great class, vibey playlist and epic Personal Trainer is the secret sauce to winter workouts.
