You work hard to stay on track and maintain a healthy lifestyle, but sometimes life can get the best of us. Between work, school, and family life, it can be difficult to balance everything. At Elegance Sculpting, we’re passionate about helping you feel beautiful and confident in your skin. With our four simple tips for staying healthy and on track, you can get in the best shape of your life this season.

1) Healthy Nutrition  

Although the saying “you are what you eat” is somewhat cliche, it’s true. Nutrition is easily one of the most difficult aspects of a healthy lifestyle to maintain but the one that results in the most benefits. When you feed your body the vitamins and nutrients it needs on a regular basis, the benefits start to show everywhere (from your shiner hair to your reduced waistline). A balanced diet should be composed of unprocessed foods rich in fibres, proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals such potassium and calcium, fatty acids, and a ton of water. Although many get caught up on the trendy “superfoods” it’s important to really understand what each food is providing your body and what your body requires. According to Community Food Centres Canada, diet-related diseases are one of the leading causes of death in Canada. This isn’t an overnight change but with habits taking 21 days to develop, striving for healthier nutrition this season is extremely achievable.

 

2) Group Fitness Classes

It’s no secret that a bit of sweating is involved in reaching your body goals, but finding the motivation can be difficult. Attending group fitness classes at your local gym or yoga studio is the perfect way to stay motivated and accountable to your goals. According to a study conducted by Indiana University, 43 per cent of couples who joined the gym together but worked out individually dropped out. However,  couples who worked out alongside another only had a 6.3 per cent gym dropout rate. The motivation provided while burning it out beside someone, whether it be your significant other or stranger, is undeniable. Trying new classes will help you target different body parts while also keeping things fresh and fun. Whether this means signing up for a dance class, joining a recreational sports league, or simply making a pact with a friend to workout together a few times a week; having someone there to enjoy the experience with you is a game-changer. Working out with others improves pain tolerance resulting in pushing yourself harder during each workout, according to a study by the University of Saskatchewan. The benefits of feeling a sense of “groupness” means you’ll push yourself to have a better workout in the same amount of time. Be the trend in your friends—ask them to join you for a fitness class instead of a dinner out. Or go to that fitness class alone, you’ll be surprised how many like-minded people you’ll meet in the studio!

 

3) UltraShape Body Contouring Treatments

Although diet and exercise are imperative to getting in shape, we can attest to the stubborn fat that never seems to shed. It’s common for women to experience this in the stomach and lower back area and is often referred to as the “muffin top.” There are a variety of reasons why this stubborn fat won’t go away; age, menopause, stress, and lack of sleep can all be contributing factors. At Elegance Sculpting, we offer body contouring treatments courtesy of Syneron Candela’s UltraShape System. UltraShape is an FDA approved, non invasive shaping device that uses pulsed, focused ultrasound technology to destroy fat cells without impacting the surrounding the skin or blood vessels, nerves or connective tissue surrounding the targeted area. One UltraShape session takes approximately 45, and results are visible after just two weeks. Over 300,000 UltraShape treatments have been performed worldwide with 94 per cent of patients satisfied. Results are fast and with no downtime, appointments can be easily be booked before after the gym. UltraShape works best in combination with a healthy diet and active lifestyle and is meant to be a helpful tool in your weight loss journey.

4) VelaShape Cellulite Reduction Treatments

Like UltraShape, the VelaShape III is a non-invasive body contouring treatment by North America’s trusted and leading cosmetic technology brand, Syneron Candela. VelaShape III is specifically beneficial in eliminating cellulite and reducing skin circumference. It combines the technologies of infrared light, bi-polar radio frequency and vacuums to reach the deep dermal layers of skin to stimulate collagen and elastin. With a noticeable improvement in the skin’s texture and elasticity, VelaShape III is able to smooth and gently contour areas your healthy diet and exercise regime cannot reach. Sometimes, when losing a considerable amount of weight, skin can sag and become lax. VelaShape III is an effective, pain-free alternative to correct your concerns without surgery. Results are visible after just one, one-hour session. Patients can expect a 62 per cent improvement in the appearance of cellulite after just a 15 minutes treatment, twice a week, for one month.

VelaShape III is PERFECT for ME!

Although each of these tips are efficient on their own, using them in combination with one another yields maximum results. You have the power to get in the best shape of your life and Elegance Sculpting will help get you there.
