Weight Loss
It's officially the homestretch. You're making final adjustments to your wedding dress, and the big day is in sight. Friberg recommended journaling before bedtime to help with sleep and to keep your evening rituals that you established in month one.
"Tweak your workout plan to include more yoga and Pilates," she said. "This will help with posture and alignment, strengthen the core, and help alleviate any extra stress."
- Monday: Run or walk (60 minutes)
- Tuesday: Weight train
- Wednesday: Yoga/Pilates
- Thursday: Walk or jog/yoga
- Friday: Weight train
- Saturday: Walk or jog (and/or) Pilates or yoga
- Sunday: Rest
For your wedding-day workout, Friberg suggested choosing your favorite. "You will feel invigorated and proud of the hard work you delivered for the big day," she said.
Toning
"Get your workout done before you put your makeup on," Kom advised. "Otherwise, there are just too many things throughout the day to get in your way. For those morning workouts, focus on toning for the homestretch."
Kom said there are four exercises you shouldn't miss during month six:
- Triceps dips, because those are the muscles that matter most when your arms are on display
- Planks, because they tone the core, legs, and shoulders
- Incline pull-ups to sculpt the beautiful back muscles
- Sumo squats to tighten and tone the thighs
She also has a word of advice when it comes to alcohol. "Alcohol is processed in the body just like sugar, and it's one of the biggest hidden reasons for packing on the pounds," Kom told POPSUGAR. "You cannot afford that in month six. It's so not worth it! Keep it to one a day, and only a few days per week."
