Our staff is kicking off our annual Maintain Not Gain program at our client sites. This program is structured to help individuals maintain their weight through those months filled with tasty food and delicious treats that surround the holidays. As you gear up for the holiday parties and events stay on track by following our Free Workout Friday blog postings to keep your workouts on track. We aren’t saying you can’t enjoy the food, we just suggest proper portion sizes and that you don’t skip out on your workouts!
If you aren’t a member at one of our client sites and would like help staying on track, “like” NIFS Fitness Management on Facebook and join our Facebook edition of Maintain Not Gain. Watch for the links to submit your initial weight November 16 – 22. Watch your newsfeed for tips to stay on track and submit your final weight in January. If you maintain and not gain through the holidays you will be eligible for a prize drawing!
