Are you on the mend? There are 25 ways to prevent it
After an active hot summer, a passive, dull autumn came. We are increasingly giving up walking, spending more time watching TV, drinking hot tea and always with a bun, and also, as happens in the fall, the body automatically gains fat. All this contributes to the fact that in a month you can gain up to ten extra pounds, which you really don’t want. There are 25 effective tips that will help you stay in shape, even if your body is programmed to do the opposite.
25 ways to stay in shape in the fall:
