You might have seen many of your friends and relatives coming home from holidays looking noticeably plumber than they did before they headed out. For that reason, you could fear your own weight loss efforts getting thrown into disarray if you take a holiday. However, it's possible to tailor a holiday to make it conducive to weight loss. Here are some major benefits of booking a retreat with a Prestige Boot Camp trainer for your own holiday.

You might have seen many of your friends and relatives coming home from holidays looking noticeably plumber than they did before they headed out. For that reason, you could fear your own weight loss efforts getting thrown into disarray if you take a holiday.

However, it's possible to tailor a holiday to make it conducive to weight loss. Here are some major benefits of booking a retreat with a Prestige Boot Camp trainer for your own holiday.

You can remove the temptation of unhealthy food

Usually, as you arrive at a new place, overseas or otherwise, you could be so busy that you regularly reach for chocolate bars or crisps with which to replenish yourself. It's no wonder that, with this kind of food going into our bodies, the weight can creep on without us noticing!

However, for people on our fitness boot camps, the only food on our menus and recipes is restaurant quality and has been carefully chosen to help you in striking a healthy nutritional balance.

You can try some unfamiliar - but tasty - delicacies

You might find that, at your holiday destination, you have access to foods not readily offered in your home area. When on holiday, you should particularly sample local exotic fruits, says the Mirror.

These are fruits that you could find on sale in abundance in Spain and Portugal, two countries where we hold boot camps. Tucking into such food can easily excite you because, while different to what you are used to, they remain very healthy and so won't compromise your weight loss mission.

There's the opportunity to share food

Joining a Prestige Boot Camp retreat means getting to meet many new people to befriend. Once they are in your friendship group, you could share food with them to reduce the calorie burden per person. It's like a nutritional version of "a problem shared is a problem halved".

Water can provide a range of exercising opportunities

Wherever you go, you will probably often be near water in which you can swim - whether that's a swimming pool or an open body of water.

Whether you opt to get fit with us in Spain or Portugal, you will be able to use any of multiple swimming pools. On a Portugal retreat, you can choose from two heated swimming pools - one indoor, the other outdoor. Meanwhile, our site in Spain features a trio of outdoor swimming pools.

In any of these pools, you could swim a few laps each day. Beneath sea level, you could snorkel and, every thirty minutes, burn roughly 210 calories in the process, weightlossresources.co.uk explains.

Even sightseeing can count as exercise

Where you stay could present many chances for enticing sightseeing. Whether you walk barefoot on a sandy beach while admiring the sunset or explore a new town or city by foot, you can burn calories in the way that you usually would through walking. That walking can be a break from more vigorous aspects of fitness holidays from Prestige Boot Camp.
