Your Health & Fitness Style:
Active and outgoing, Sagittarius is full of energy. A physical sign, you've
got tons of power and endurance, especially in your lower body. Your
powerful hips and thighs allow you to hike, bike or dance for hours.
Free-spirited Sag loves the outdoors, so fresh air and wide-open spaces
beat any claustrophic gym. Adventurous sports like horseback riding and
archery are also great for Sag, since you're symbolized by the bow-and-arrow
bearing Centaur.
Sagittarius rules the hips and thighs, and you're often sturdily built with prominent curves, like Sagittarians Tina Turner and Britney Spears. An impatient sign, you crave intense workouts with maximum results. You’ve got a busy, erratic schedule and can rarely be bothered with details. Since you’re clumsy and prone to minor injuries, you should avoid anything too intricate, but keep it fresh by trying out new routines. Sportier Sagittarians may even become fitness instructors, because you love to teach what you’re passionate about.
Optimistic Sag loves to be inspired, so why not tap your higher mind as you work your lower body? We recommend Patricia Moreno's Intensati DVD, which combines yoga, martial arts and kickboxing with positive affirmations -- a cutting-edge workout perfect for impatient Archers. Anything with an international twist is perfect for worldly Sags, too.
You’re a workaholic, but don’t forget to stop and take care of yourself. Combine fitness with business or make it a way to channel your inspiration. For example, try power-walking with a fellow visionary or biking to stir creative ideas. The key is consistency coupled with variety--stick to a routine at least three times a week, but vary the workout or you’ll lose interest.
Staying active is important, since Sagittarians love to indulge. If you're not careful, you could give your love handles a little too much love! Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, the planet of abundance, so your curves can be plentiful. If you're a "big, beautiful woman" struggling with self-acceptance, we recommend the following titles written by your Sagittarius sisters: Skinny Women Are Evil: Notes of a Big Girl in a Small-Minded World by Mo'Nique, The Fat Girl's Guide to Life by Wendy Shanker, and Body Outlaws by our own Ophi Edut!
