When I was in college I would restrict myself all week long and eat only “healthy foods” and then the weekend would come around and I’d have a huge cheat day with the greasiest food and lots of alcohol. Here is how I changed my mindset around this habit.
A gallon of water is a lot. I’m not going to lie, I have to be really cognizant of drinking it if I am going to drink all 126 ounces of water daily. If I don’t think about it, I can easily drink 40-60 ounces for the day. Here are some things I incorporate into my day to make sure I’m drinking enough.
I get it. We all have jobs, relationships, a house to keep clean, laundry to do, grocery shopping, commute times, wanting to sleep 8 hours a night, and the plethora of other things we do day to day.
However, we all have that. And some people manage to make time for their workouts & meal prepping while others don’t.
We all know how much fun fall is but that also comes with more treats, desserts, and wanting to be cozied up on the couch without moving. Here are 5 things you can do to keep burning calories this fall!
We are 3 weeks away from the big day and we are slowly dwindling out to-do list down. But there are so many last minute items that can slip through the crack. I’m also on wedding tiktok where everyone is in procrastination mode and it has me stressed more than I need to be!!
My daily supplement routine used to be so obnoxious, I tried taking everything under the sun. I’ve really refined it and try to get a majority of my nutrients from whole food sources!
Well, I officially have 4 months before the wedding and I am starting to get into the zone on my nutrition. Over the course of the last 6 months I have been working on increasing my calories to build up my metabolism and put on a good amount of muscle. Now over the course of the next 4 months I will be working in the opposite direction to slim down!
I definitely played into the belief that the only thing that mattered in my nutrition was the macros on the nutrition. I literally wouldn’t care about how many ingredients or what those ingredients were, where the food came from, etc. Until I started to feel bloated, tired, more anxious, and wasn’t seeing results like before. So, this summer I have dedicated it to my own health, not my physical body!
There are many variations of ab exercises you can do to continue to build a strong core. Having a strong core is going to be more useful than simply looking jacked and having a 6 pack. It increases stability, performance, balance, decreases chance of injury, and helps improve strength in all other exercises or cardio.
