6 September 2022

We’ve all been there…

One week all in, the other all out. You train for three days and then scuffle to get off the bed after a busy day at work. This is completely normal but what’s more important is the urge and ability to get back on track Here is how you can bounce back on track:

1. Set simple habits!

Put your habits into your calendar. Start with having 2 habits and stick to them instead of just putting a lot of goals that you end up missing out on.
Don’t procrastinate. If you missed out on anything, try to reach the in between.

Don’t have time for a full workout? Just take the stairs, walk more often, or stand up in the middle of working hours. An effective way to meet your schedule is to give your tasks your undivided attention and have one thing happen at a time.

2. Morning routine

First things first, set 1 simple intention for the day to get the best out of it! Get dressed, then follow your routine. Make your early morning more fun with music.

Take your dog for a walk, get your meals ready and prepped and head to your work. Consistency is the key.

3. Healthy eating – CROWD OUT!

Now that vacations are over, let’s get back to eating clean and healthy. Start first by crowding out most of the unhealthy choices and choosing nutrient dense meals.

One way to help you do so is to grab easy snacks that can power up through the day like nuts, fruits, or raw chopped veggies. Also, Granola with Greek yogurt as a morning meal is a good option too that’ll keep you full till half day.

Try to balance the 80-20 rule (80% healthy choice, 20% to indulge).

4. KEEP MOVING!

Either at home or at the gym, look for a workout routine that's effective and fun for you so you know you'll stick to it. It’s not the number of hours that matter, but the consistency and doing the exercise right.

Then schedule your workouts at a specific time of the day so you always know you’ll have time for them. make it more challenging and train with a friend that’ll keep you engaged.

5. Prioritize your overall health and wellness

Manage your sleeping habits. Try to have at least 7-8 hours of sleep daily. Manage your Plan Your week in Advance. Prioritize your duties based on the timeliness needed.

Limit distractions by having simple goals and prioritizing them. Keep away distractions, like your phone,laptop , or any electronics on your desk or a different room.

Declutter regularly as it helps reduce stress & anxiety and it also boosts productivity. One important tip is to set deadlines in order to help meet them in a specific time frame.
