As it is January I bet many of you, like me, are once again promising that THIS will be the year to get fit. Considering joining a gym? Wondering how many times a week you will plan to go versus how many times a week you will ACTUALLY go? Yep. Been there before too.
I know from experience that joining a gym is utterly impractical for both me and my family. There simply just aren’t enough hours in the day. To be perfectly honest even before we had kids I would rarely ever go often enough to justify the monthly membership fees.
Finding time to exercise is hard. We all know this, and the latest exercise DVD from Davina has been designed with exactly that in mind.
I have been sent two copies of Davina 7 minute fit. One to try out for myself, yay, and one to give to one of you lucky readers.
It consists of a short warm up, a dynamic stretch and cool-down workout and eight specific workouts that are just seven minutes long. If you are new to exercise don’t panic, there are also clear tutorials which will take you through how to do some of the more complicated moves safely. There is also a fitness challenge to be done each week so you can track your progress and see how much you have improved.
For beginners, you can start with just one workout each day. I know this doesn’t sound like a lot but 7 minutes every day is better than just half an hour once a week right? For those looking for more of a challenge it is easy to put together a combination of workouts for a more thorough workout.
This morning I had a bit of time and managed a combination of four routines and now feel great…and just a little smug. Sorry.
Once you receive your DVD you can then log in to Davina’s new website, GetFitWithDavina.com, where you can register to receive your own, personalised, combined exercise and nutrition programme which is free for the first five weeks. To continue it then costs £4.99 per month. I registered this morning and will update you with more details once I am up and running.
So, who is with me? Fancy giving it a whirl? To win a copy simply tell me in the comments below your own fitness goal this year AND enter via the rafflecopter. Me…I’m still dreaming of that six pack…and being a stone lighter. Gotta aim high, no? Bonus entries can be gained in the usual ways. Good luck!
This prize draw has been featured on Prizefinder UK, Competition Hunter and Di Coke’s Super Lucky Blog.
