I’m a Level 4 Certified Personal Trainer and a Sports Nutritionist, I post short videos about health and fitness called ‘Daily Tips’ on my Instagram @zaidmzxfitness.
Daily Tip #1
During this lockdown stay at home, but make sure to Vitamin D regularly; sunlight is the only source of Vitamin D so stand out in your balconies or rooftops, or if you have sunlight coming in through your windows it doors, stand there for about 15/20 mins everyday.
Daily Tip#2
Whenever you drink water or any liquid, DO NOT gulp it down; instead take sips of the liquid, keep it in your mouth for a second and then swallow…
Gulping or chugging down water causes the water to run down the throat, missing out on carrying saliva to the stomach.
Sipping water and allowing it to stay in the mouth and then passing through the food pipe helps the saliva reach the stomach to neutralise acid levels in the stomach and also reduces strain on your kidneys.
Daily Tip#3
Add chia seeds to water
Chia seeds are a good source of fibre, they keep your body cool and also help in weight loss.
Chia seeds when mixed with water turn into gel, they expand your stomach causing you to eat less and hence help in weight loss.
Daily Tip#4
Pumpkins have high contents of beta carotene which is very good for you eyes and skin.
If you can’t find pumpkins, eat carrots

The lockdown being extended is not an excuse to skip training. Train at home, use what you have..
