Hope you have all had a good bank holiday and enjoyed the gorgeous weather!
Mine was pretty chilled catching up with friends and relaxing. On Monday I visited Ilkley Lido (outdoor swimming pool). I have never been before and the lovely weather meant it was very busy.
I went with my friend and her niece, we pitched up with our towels and bikinis and relaxed on the grassed area and went in the pool a couple of times...... it was bloody freezing - it was a jump in kinda of cold, the unbearable feeling of the cold water hitting your waist was too much to handle lol.
My friend and I were very surprised that we were actually in the minority - I am not talking men v women, or people over a certain age, or people of a certain culture, we were in a very tiny handful of people who were thin, shockingly this included children too!
Now I know as a nation obesity is on the increase and the stats are pretty scary, however, when I saw it in person it was pretty shocking! We were a minority in what was a very busy, highly populated place.
For me being physically active & eating healthy is something I have done growing up so it is the norm to me. The health benefits and looking half decent when I get in my bikini is a by product of all the hard work and consistency which I put in.
I could write down a list of benefits of being physically active and eating healthy, however, I think the experience is so much better than reading about it! So if you do one activity today, make it click of the button on one of the links below!
