MOSCOW, May 26 - RIA Novosti. The kilograms that you "hatched" on self-isolation can be shed, but not by express diets. Arina Skoromnaya, a sports nutritionist and fitness trainer, told Sputnik radio how to pull myself together and regain shape.
Extra pounds will gradually go away due to proper nutrition and regimen. It is best to immediately contact a specialist, because improper diets can harm your health, said Arina Skoromnaya, a sports nutritionist, fitness trainer, leading fitness column on the Friday TV channel, in an interview with Sputnik radio.
"It is best to sign up for a specialist, professional for some marathon or course. This is the best option, no amateur performances, the expert has already thought of everything for you, when to eat and how to train. Independent express diets, mono-diets can not only spoil the appearance, that is, you gain twice as much as you threw off, but also spoil your health."
If it is not possible to consult a specialist, you can gradually exclude harmful foods from the diet.
"If we exclude sugar, sweets, that is, simple carbohydrates, and bread, that is, flour, this will already help to get rid of extra pounds," the sports nutritionist advises.
Abruptly starting to bring the body into shape can be harmful and dangerous, warned Arina Skoromnaya. You can start with light morning exercises.
"It can be joint gymnastics and some kind of cardio. If you don't have a cardio machine at home or you can't go for a run, you can just walk in place with your knees raised high for 5-10 minutes. Then everyone has different ways: someone is already in a few days is ready for more serious activity, and someone needs time to swing. If you feel that you are ready, you can gradually turn on some strength exercises. If it is possible to go to the gym, then these are simulators, dumbbells. At home you can use water bottles, towels, chairs, "- said Arina Skoromnaya in an interview with Sputnik radio.
