Avoid Weight Gain in College

exercise |

Over the winter break, one of my young clients spent a furious two weeks trying to undo what had happened during her first semester of college: Freedom, beer, pizza, stress and parties…all of which led to weight gain.

If you’re in college (or have ever been in college), you’ve likely experienced the same thing. Exercise often drops down the priority list (or off the list altogether) as the reality of college life sets in.

However, exercise is crucial, not just for managing your weight, but dealing with stress and giving yourself more focus and energy.

There are ways to avoid weight gain in college, but one thing you can do right now is take a look at your schedule and figure out how you can squeeze in some exercise. Some ideas:

  • Join the student fitness center – If you have a fitness center on campus, chances are you can get a discount membership or, in some cases, workout for free. Don’t forget to check into local gyms. Many may offer student discounts as well.

  • Look for ways to move more – Could you jog, inline skate or walk around campus before or between classes? What about P.E. classes? You might be able to sign up for something active and get credit for doing it.
  • Exercise in your dorm room or apartment – There are plenty of body weight exercises you can do to work your body whenever you have time. This Boot Camp Circuit Workout is intense, requires no equipment and can be done just about anywhere.

What about you? Are you going to college and, if so, what are your plans for keeping your weight in check? If you’ve been there, did you gain weight? Leave a comment and tell us about your college experiences.
