If you're like me, the word "health" triggers fear, and I don't like to think about what it means for my health—I just want to feel good and look good.
If you're like me, the word "health" triggers fear, and I don't like to think about what it means for my health—I just want to feel good and look good. But if you're reading this because you want to improve your quality of life or stay healthy for the long haul (or both!), here are four quirky tips that work:
Eat a high-protein breakfast.
Protein is essential for muscle growth, recovery, and strength. It also helps you feel full longer so you can get through the day without snacking on junk food. A nice way to start your day off right is with some eggs (or another source of protein), milk or Greek yogurt, fruit, and some toast if desired!
Make the most of your workouts with nutrients that fuel your body.
You need to know the right nutrients to get more out of your workouts.
Protein: This is an essential macronutrient that helps repair muscle damage and build new cells, which means it's essential for building strength and endurance. It also helps reduce soreness after a workout by repairing the immune system and helping the body recover more quickly from exercise.
Carbohydrates: Carbs are stored energy in your muscles that help you perform longer during workouts. Carbohydrates include sugars (like glucose) or starches (like potatoes). The best sources of carbs include fruits like bananas and blueberries; whole grains such as oatmeal; beans/legumes/tofu/tempeh; starchy veggies like corn on the cob or sweet potatoes—and even fruit juices! But make sure they're not high-sugar fruits like oranges because those will spike insulin levels too much when eaten alone without other foods in their diet after working out.
Get exercise outside if you can.
Exercise is good for you. But if you're ever going to get fit and healthy, it's important to exercise outside.
Exercising inside can be hard on your body—and besides, who wants to spend all day in a gym? If you want to work with weights or do other forms of exercise at home (which is fine), make sure that whatever equipment or workout plan you choose has been scientifically proven safe for pregnant women and their growing fetuses.
Once again: Exercise outside! It'll help with sleep quality and moods; it will also help boost productivity at work because more active people tend to be more productive; plus, studies have shown that exercising outside can lead to better creativity too!
The right approach to your health can go a long way to improving your quality of life.
The right approach to your health can go a long way to improving your quality of life.
It’s easy for people who are unaware of the importance of diet, exercise, and supplements to get overwhelmed by all the online information about what they should eat or do every day.
Don't worry about everything being perfect before starting this journey! Focus on one thing at a time: eat better today than yesterday (or even worse), drink more water than coffee/tea/alcohol, etc., take supplements according to the recommendation, etc. But don't feel guilty if you slip up occasionally; just keep trying again tomorrow until something sticks!
Find someone who's been there before - perhaps even an expert in their field - share advice with them over email/phone calls, etc. Share ideas about what works best for YOU based on YOUR daily routines, so everyone understands each other better.
Conclusion
It can seem like a lot of work when you start working on your health. But it’s worth it in the end—your body will thank you for it!
