Shop shelves are rapidly lining with mince pies and the prospect of seasonal overindulgence is getting ever closer.

But after all that gorging over the Christmas period, how can we get back into shape?

Research has shown that people in Wales do not eat as healthily as those in England, pointing to an increased need for exercise, especially in the new year.

Alt.Cardiff therefore offers its top five alternative ways to get fit after Christmas, as well as a chance to make some fitness-led new year’s resolutions and stick to them.
