Fit.
For weight management here’s a few recommendations but before I give you the 411 I must tell you I am not a fitness guru nor am I a nutritionist; I am struggling just like you even if I don’t look like it! I just have a positive attitude that’s all.
- I recommend meal prepping for the week that will help you to figure out what you’re going to eat for lunch and breakfast because the first meal of the day is extremely important. I am not a big breakfast eater but I realize I must eat in the morning so that I am not too hungry by lunchtime!
- Have a nutritious breakfast and lunch; try to eat more proteins than unhealthy carbs.
- After a work out have a smoothie to replenish your muscles, especially after an intense work out, you’re going to need a good protein shake for muscle growth because remember we are losing weight but we still want muscles to look tone and beautiful.
- Work out 4-5 days a week and really focus each day on different muscle groups for example: for me everyday I do cardio on the treadmill for 30 minutes and 1 hour on the stair master ( this one is not for the weak! I usually watch something I enjoy like Mbappé highlights or Haaland highlights or I watch the stromae live concert he did in Montreal years ago it was soooo amazing but anyway back to the stair master I worked my way up to do 1 hour on it but I started out by doing just 5-20 minutes and now it’s easier for me to stay, this machine tones out your whole body and help you lose excess fat) but on Mondays, Tuesdays or Wednesdays I do core work outs, ab work outs, and back work outs, also work out my quads. Fridays and Saturdays I do leg day and glutes work out. Actually I do little glute work outs some of the other days but without weights because you need to let your muscle rest for them to grow if you’re constantly work out a muscle daily it will not grow as you want it to, it might even shrink!
- Sleep for 8 hours daily! You need sleep to work out and feel energized.
- Make sure you’re not hungry before a work out, eat something 1 or 2 hours before because if you don’t have enough energy you won’t perform well.
