Most of us make New Year resolutions pertaining to health and fitness. And why not, right? Considering our unhealthy lifestyles, it only seems fitting. And while we bet that most of you'll are doing a good job at keeping those resolutions (as of now), today, we've got you'll 8 pre-workout tips that will ensure that you are making the most out of your workout.

First off, make sure that you are getting enough sleep. If you don't feel refreshed and recharged, trust us, that exercise you are doing is causing you more harm than anything else. Make sure to drink enough water. Drink most after you wake because the body has been in fasting mode for the past 8 hours and needs that energy. What about pre-workout meals, you ask? Yes, those are important too and must include dried fruits, organic yoghurts, dark chocolate and apple. Ensure you take a multivitamin. It helps disperse the energy from food throughout your bloodstream. And when all else fails, go for the caffeine. Drink a cup of black coffee before your workout. The caffeine will provide you with a quick burst of energy and soothe muscle ache as well.

If you think that your exercise is tiring you out earlier than you expected, listen to your favourite music and tracks. It will instantly energise you, trust us. Another quick fix when feeling fatigued is to just squeeze a lemon and drink the juice, the stingy zesty flavour will wake you up and the vitamin C gives a burst of energy. And lastly, ensure to take breaks whenever needed. Over-pushing may result in health issues and you do not want that, do you?
