5 Ways To Beat The New Year Resolution Crowds

 
If it's January, the gym is probably packed. You'll be joined by those with New Year's resolutions to fulfill, as well as everyone energized by the prospect of a fresh start in terms of their health and fitness.

The trick is to be able to get in a great workout while you vie with others in a suddenly crowded gym. But by incorporating the following tips, you'll effectively deal with the crowds while working up a hard-earned sweat.

1. Have a Plan B

It's always a great idea to have your workout goals in mind before you head to the gym. You'll be more apt to stick with your plan, while also saving time by not having to wander around wondering what you're going to do next. But a packed gym can sometimes alter your routine, so have a backup plan in mind. 

2. Up The Intensity

You don't need a lot of equipment, if any, to get in a great high-intensity interval training session. You can do this when machines and other equipment are filled. Plus, it's an ideal way to burn more calories in less time.

3. A World Beyond The Treadmill

Chances are, the treadmills are going to be the first machines to fill up. But the rowers and stair climbers will also be available for your cardio workout.

4. Avoid Peak Hours

Many gyms are most crowded right before and right after work. If possible, choose different times to do your workout.

5. Hire a Trainer

A professional trainer will make sure that you get the best workout possible with the equipment available. Working with a personal trainer such as Ralph Roberts can be exactly what you need as you pursue your health and fitness goals. Contact Ralph today.
