If you are ready to get serious about your goals… one of the BEST things you can do is focus on THE VERY BASICS.
These basics give you the biggest bang for your buck over the long run! Our Habits for Massive Impact are our basics - eat a healthy breakfast, nourish yourself throughout the day, eat whole foods only, hydrate, and train 3x per week. And I am talking about even getting more granular to make sure that those foundational things are achieved. So for me - to make sure that I execute on the basics, I need to:
And - these basics are going to be different for everyone Most people are sabotaging their metabolism without even knowing it 😬
It looks like: ✖️Cutting too many calories ✖️Skipping meals ✖️Ignoring chronic stress ✖️Not getting enough sleep ✖️Not eating enough protein And the list goes on. Want to start working WITH your metabolism instead of against it? Our free "Maximize Your Metabolism" guide gives you 9 proven ways to speed things up at any age. Hot Tip: Prioritize Protein! 💪
Did you know that protein is an absolute game-changer when it comes to achieving your health and fitness goals? Here's why you should make it a top priority: 🔥 It helps reduce appetite, making it easier to stay on track with your nutrition. 🏋️♀️ It boosts your metabolism, helping you burn more calories throughout the day. 💪 It helps build and preserve muscle, giving you a toned and sculpted physique. 🍽️ It curbs those pesky cravings, making it easier to resist tempting snacks. Aim for at least 30 grams of protein per meal and .8 - 1 gram of protein per pound of your ideal body weight. It is hard for me to make sure that I am getting enough protein so I am tracking it in an app called Carbon - and I still fall short. I plan on tracking it until I can regularly get in the habit of hitting my protein goals with ease. (still in the messy middle right now but I do feel soooo much better when I get the right amount of protein) My favorite easy(ish) meal prepable protein sources right now are:
I was definitely not an athlete growing up. I was raised in Rangeley, Maine - a small town in Western Maine which meant they needed me on the team to get the numbers.
I came from a family of really great athletes and I think the coaches expected more of me - the athlete gene just skipped over me. I was most frequently awarded the 'sportsmanship award.' My little brother joked that they made that award up for me because they had no other way to celebrate my contributions to the team. Mike... on the other hand was all sports, all athlete, team captain, and really good at football, basketball, and baseball... He generally is good at just about everything.... Tough too - he once played football through a broken collarbone. I had no idea that I would fall in love with a personal trainer who was making his corner of the world better by helping people live their very best life. |
