We seem to be staying home and social distancing for the foreseeable future. How is everyone doing being inside and away from family and friends? Have you created a routine? How is it going? I am continuing my morning routine. It’s a little modified but looks something like this: Monday thru Friday, wake up around 6-6:30am, have a cup of coffee as I watch the news. Around 7am, I drink my pre workout, fill my water bottle and get into my workout clothes. 7:30am is go time on my Beachbody on Demand workout. I post on social media and eat breakfast. Go through email, do some professional development and check in with my challengers in my support and motivational group. It doesn’t take long but it helps me to keep my body moving.
My morning routine also helps me stay on track with my nutrition. This quarantine is hard because the kitchen is only a few steps away and boredom can cause me to have the munchies. I work hard to stick with my nutritional plan. Working out daily and not following a healthy diet is like putting air in a balloon and not tying a knot in it. If you aren’t sure how to start a healthy diet and what foods would be good to eat, I can help. Check out the links on my website for healthy recipes and to see the amazing nutritional plans that Beachbody has to offer. I use the Ultimate Portion Fix created by Autumn Calabrese and there is the 2B Mindset program by Ilana Muhlstein. Each program will walk you through steps needed to start and find success.
Another way I keep my nutrition in tact is drink my daily Shakeology. This is not a regular protein shake. There are so many wonderful ingredients that help your body in so many ways. It does have protein but it also helps your digestive system stay regular, helps with stress management, gives you energy, curbs your cravings plus many more benefits. Check out my Shakeology page for info on how you can start your daily dose of dense nutrition.
So as we are continuing with social distancing and staying home, it’s a great time to look at your nutrition and see how to create a healthy lifestyle so you don’t gain the quarantine 15!
