Summer is the perfect time to start healthy habits that will last you a lifetime. Fitness should be exciting and fun to ensure you won't lose interest and stop before you get the results you want.  

Here are five tips that I've shard with my clients over the years to help them incorporate healthy choices into everyday life. These small habits add up, and before you know it you're living the fit life and feeling phenomenal.  

1. Drive More "Fun" Water. It's important to drink plenty of water, especially in the summer when you're more prone to dehydration and you're sweating more during workouts. Make infused-water "mocktails" to make plain water more delicious without the added calories of other drinks. Just slice up your favorite fresh fruit and add it to your water.  

2. Find a Workout Buddy. Try biking, outdoor dance classes, canoeing, and hiking. You will get to spend a beautiful day outdoors with a friend, and you won't even notice the amazing workout you're getting.  

3. Work Out in the Morning. It's a great way to jump-start your day, plus you'll avoid the peak summer sun. If you have trouble waking up and getting to the gym, try leaving yourself a motivational Post-it note on your sneakers and putting them by your bed. Once you get into the routine, you'll be able to stick with it into fall and winter.  

4. Try Online Training. Online training is one of the best ways to work out - without any excuses. All you need is a laptop and an Internet connection. You can train inside if you prefer an air-conditioned space or outside if you like fresh air and sunshine.   

5. Fuel Up Beforehand. Always eat a small meal or snack at least 90 minutes before any workout to ensure you have the best levels of energy. This is especially important when your body is working extra hard in the heat.   

Always make sure you challenging yourself and having fun in the process!.
