Nos acercamos a esa \u00e9poca tan desagradable en la que ya es de noche cuando salimos de la oficina. El fr\u00edo hace que nuestro cuerpo se relaje, se vuelva perezoso y se prepare para el invierno que se avecina. Parece que perdemos la motivaci\u00f3n al mismo tiempo que los \u00e1rboles pierden sus hojas. Gracias por nada, gen\u00e9tica aprobada por la evoluci\u00f3n. Sin embargo, tenemos algunos trucos sencillos que te ayudar\u00e1n a mantener una actitud positiva y motivada durante el invierno.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>PREP\u00c1RATE<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>La raz\u00f3n m\u00e1s obvia para estar de mal humor durante el invierno es el <strong>falta de luz natural<\/strong>. Si tenemos un horario de trabajo habitual de 9 a 5, disponemos de poco o ning\u00fan tiempo para absorber la vitamina D, beneficiosa para la salud. Pero, \u00bfc\u00f3mo puede ayudarnos el sol a combatir el cansancio y el letargo? La raz\u00f3n principal est\u00e1 relacionada con la hormona melatonina, que nuestro cuerpo produce por la noche para que podamos dormir como un beb\u00e9. La luz solar es el ant\u00eddoto contra la melatonina, ya que ayuda a nuestro cuerpo a reducir la concentraci\u00f3n de melatonina en la sangre y a sentirnos m\u00e1s despiertos. As\u00ed que aseg\u00farate de tomar tu dosis diaria de sol si no quieres convertirte en un zombi somnoliento a principios de febrero. Intenta sacar al menos 15 minutos al d\u00eda, por ejemplo, dando un peque\u00f1o paseo despu\u00e9s de comer, ya que los cristales normales de las ventanas filtran la luz ultravioleta que cura nuestro sue\u00f1o.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>LA COMIDA SALUDABLE AYUDA<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Mientras que el verano es la \u00e9poca perfecta para las frutas frescas y las ensaladas saludables, el invierno se asocia m\u00e1s con cenas opulentas y dulces navide\u00f1os todos los d\u00edas desde octubre hasta enero. Pero, especialmente en invierno, nuestro cuerpo necesita esos <strong>vitaminas y micronutrientes<\/strong> m\u00e1s que nunca para mantenernos sanos y felices. Dejemos una cosa clara: lo que ocurre en la mesa de Navidad, se queda en la mesa de Navidad. Para los dem\u00e1s d\u00edas de invierno, hay muchas recetas saludables que nos har\u00e1n sentir mejor, como la reconfortante sopa de lentejas rojas o las saludables patatas fritas de calabaza.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>EL EJERCICIO ES TU AMIGO<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Lo has adivinado, hacer ejercicio es, por supuesto, una forma estupenda de superar nuestra pereza interior. Y ni siquiera estamos hablando de los prop\u00f3sitos de A\u00f1o Nuevo del tipo \u201cvoy a hacer ejercicio todos los d\u00edas, perder 20 kilos y dejar de fumar\u201d, porque esos suelen durar solo unos d\u00edas. Los estudios han demostrado que hacer ejercicio dos o tres veces por semana tiene un impacto positivo significativo en nuestro bienestar, lo que parece factible. Como empezar a hacer ejercicio suele ser lo m\u00e1s dif\u00edcil, f\u00edjate una meta baja, por ejemplo, cinco minutos de deporte. Haz algunas sentadillas y abdominales durante la pr\u00f3xima pausa publicitaria. Despu\u00e9s, puedes parar inmediatamente y volver a tu querido sof\u00e1. Dato curioso: en esos 300 segundos, es muy probable que tus niveles de endorfinas se hayan disparado y sigas movi\u00e9ndote. Por cierto, no es necesario que corras por la nieve durante horas ni que te hagas socio de un gimnasio: a <strong>Entrenamiento r\u00e1pido y sencillo de 20 minutos.<\/strong> es absolutamente suficiente.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>LOS BUENOS VIEJOS H\u00c1BITOS PEGAJOSOS<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Afrontemos la realidad: a veces nos quedamos sin energ\u00eda y lo \u00fanico que queremos es relajarnos en la cama y ver nuestra serie favorita. No pasa nada, porque cuando nuestro cuerpo nos pide descanso, debemos escucharlo. Pero para evitar que este s\u00edndrome de Netflix ocasional se convierta en cr\u00f3nico, es bueno tener algunas rutinas bajo la manga. Las rutinas son conocidas por facilitar las cosas, pero tambi\u00e9n <strong>hacer que sea dif\u00edcil no hacer cosas<\/strong>. Por lo tanto, debemos asegurarnos de establecer h\u00e1bitos saludables lo antes posible, mientras a\u00fan quede algo de motivaci\u00f3n intr\u00ednseca. Y, de repente, la pregunta \u201c\u00bfTengo que ir al gimnasio hoy?\u201d cambia a \u201c\u00a1Por supuesto que ir\u00e9 al gimnasio hoy, es jueves!\u201d.<br\/>\n<br\/>\u00a0<br\/>\n<br\/>Imagen de stocksolutions\/Shutterstock<br\/>\n<\/div>\n   <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- row category header -->\n<div class=\"row rowCategoryHeader\" style=\"grid-template-columns:1fr\">\n    <div class=\"col\" style=\"display: flex; align-items: baseline;\">\n        <h2 class=\"bgPuma\">\n            <span>\u00bfQu\u00e9 m\u00e1s hay?<\/span>\n        <\/h2>\n    <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"row articleMulti4 spacing\">\n\t    <div class=\"col articleTeaser\" >\n\t\t\t<a class=\"hoverzooma  scrollAnim\" href=\"https:\/\/www.puma-catchup.com\/es\/sports\/stay-shape-winter\/\" \n\t\t\t     tabindex=\"-1\" \n\t\t\t    id=\"4733\"\n\t\t\t     style=\"width:100%;position:relative;overflow:hidden;\t\t\t    aspect-ratio:1\t\t\t    ;\" >\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\"\n\t\t\t    class=\"hoverZoom\"\n\t\t\t    src=\"https:\/\/www.puma-catchup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/workingout_H.jpg\" style=\"transition: 0.35s all;height:100%;width:100%;\t\t\t    object-position: 50% 0%; object-fit: cover;\"\/>\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.puma-catchup.com\/es\/category\/sports\/\" class=\"secondary2\" style=\"margin-top: 17px;\">Deportes<\/a>\n\t        <h4>C\u00f3mo mantenerse en forma en invierno<\/h4>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"description shortExcerpt\">\n\t\t\t\tCuando los d\u00edas se vuelven m\u00e1s fr\u00edos, oscuros y cortos, nuestra motivaci\u00f3n para mantenernos f\u00edsicamente activos se pone a prueba. \u00bfPreferir\u00edas pasar una sombr\u00eda ma\u00f1ana de enero en la cama tomando un caf\u00e9 o un t\u00e9 o capeando el fr\u00edo saliendo a correr?

We are approaching that dreadful time where it\u2019s already dark once we leave the office. The cold weather signals our body to calm down, get lazy and prepare for the upcoming winter. We seem to lose our motivation around the same time the trees lose their leaves. Thanks for nothing, evolutionary-approved genetics. However, we have a few simple tricks that will help you stay positive and motivated in the wintertime.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;BRACE YOURSELF\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;The most obvious reason for being in a bad mood during winter is the \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;lack of daylight\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;. Assuming a regular 9 to 5 working schedule, we have little to no time to soak up health-promoting vitamin D. But how can the sun help us beat fatigue and lethargy? The main reason is connected to the hormone melatonin, which our body produces at night to let us sleep like a baby. Sunlight is the antidote for melatonin, it helps our body to reduce the melatonin concentration in our blood and to feel more awake. So make sure to get your daily dose of sunshine, if you don\u2019t want to turn into a sleepy zombie by early February. Try to sneak in at least 15 minutes every day, e.g. with a little stroll after lunch, because regular windowpanes will filter the UV light that cures our drowsiness.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;HEALTHY FOOD HELPS\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Whilst summer is the perfect time for fresh fruits and healthy salads, winter feels more like opulent dinners and Christmas candy every day from October to January. But especially in the wintertime, our body needs those \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;vitamins and micronutrients\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; more than ever to stay healthy and happy. Let\u2019s get one thing straight: what happens at the Christmas dinner table, stays at the Christmas dinner table. For other winter days, there are a lot of healthy recipes that will make us feel better, for example comforting red lentil soup or healthy pumpkin fries.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;EXERCISE IS YOUR FRIEND\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;You guessed it, working out is \u2013 of course \u2013 a great way to overcome our inner sloth. And we\u2019re not even talking about the \u201cI\u2019ll work out every day, lose 40 pounds and quit smoking\u201d type of New Year\u2019s resolutions because those usually only last a few days. Studies have proven that working out two to three times a week has a significant positive impact on our wellbeing \u2013 sounds doable. As starting a workout is usually the biggest struggle, set a low goal for yourself, e.g. five minutes of sports. Do some squats and sit-ups during the next commercial break. Afterwards, you\u2019re free to stop immediately and return to your beloved couch. Fun fact: in those 300 seconds, your endorphin levels have most likely skyrocketed and you\u2019ll keep on moving. By the way, you don\u2019t need to run through the snow for hours or register a secondary residence in the gym: a \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;quick and dirty 20-minute workout\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; is absolutely sufficient.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;GOOD OL\u2019 STICKY HABITS\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Let\u2019s face the truth: Sometimes our batteries are just empty and all we want to do is relax in bed and binge-watch our favourite TV series.

We are approaching that dreadful time where it\u2019s already dark once we leave the office. The cold weather signals our body to calm down, get lazy and prepare for the upcoming winter. We seem to lose our motivation around the same time the trees lose their leaves. Thanks for nothing, evolutionary-approved genetics. However, we have a few simple tricks that will help you stay positive and motivated in the wintertime.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;BRACE YOURSELF\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;The most obvious reason for being in a bad mood during winter is the \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;lack of daylight\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;. Assuming a regular 9 to 5 working schedule, we have little to no time to soak up health-promoting vitamin D. But how can the sun help us beat fatigue and lethargy? The main reason is connected to the hormone melatonin, which our body produces at night to let us sleep like a baby. Sunlight is the antidote for melatonin, it helps our body to reduce the melatonin concentration in our blood and to feel more awake. So make sure to get your daily dose of sunshine, if you don\u2019t want to turn into a sleepy zombie by early February. Try to sneak in at least 15 minutes every day, e.g. with a little stroll after lunch, because regular windowpanes will filter the UV light that cures our drowsiness.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;HEALTHY FOOD HELPS\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Whilst summer is the perfect time for fresh fruits and healthy salads, winter feels more like opulent dinners and Christmas candy every day from October to January. But especially in the wintertime, our body needs those \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;vitamins and micronutrients\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; more than ever to stay healthy and happy. Let\u2019s get one thing straight: what happens at the Christmas dinner table, stays at the Christmas dinner table. For other winter days, there are a lot of healthy recipes that will make us feel better, for example comforting red lentil soup or healthy pumpkin fries.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;EXERCISE IS YOUR FRIEND\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;You guessed it, working out is \u2013 of course \u2013 a great way to overcome our inner sloth. And we\u2019re not even talking about the \u201cI\u2019ll work out every day, lose 40 pounds and quit smoking\u201d type of New Year\u2019s resolutions because those usually only last a few days. Studies have proven that working out two to three times a week has a significant positive impact on our wellbeing \u2013 sounds doable. As starting a workout is usually the biggest struggle, set a low goal for yourself, e.g. five minutes of sports. Do some squats and sit-ups during the next commercial break. Afterwards, you\u2019re free to stop immediately and return to your beloved couch. Fun fact: in those 300 seconds, your endorphin levels have most likely skyrocketed and you\u2019ll keep on moving. By the way, you don\u2019t need to run through the snow for hours or register a secondary residence in the gym: a \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;quick and dirty 20-minute workout\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; is absolutely sufficient.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;GOOD OL\u2019 STICKY HABITS\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Let\u2019s face the truth: Sometimes our batteries are just empty and all we want to do is relax in bed and binge-watch our favourite TV series.
