3 EASY STEPS TO GET IN SHAPE
Don’t care much for restrictive diets that take over your life?
I don’t either…
… But If I wanted to get back into it and lose some weight after a summer of holidays and boozing, I’d start with these 3 easy steps:
STEP 1: MORE PROTEIN
Increase your protein intake to help with:
💪🏼Muscle Growth: Protein is essential for repairing and building muscle tissue. More protein means faster gains at the gym!
🏋️♀️ Weight Management: Protein helps control your appetite, making you feel fuller for longer. Say goodbye to those pesky cravings!
🍔🚫 Metabolism Boost: Your body burns more calories digesting protein compared to fats or carbs. Hello, increased metabolism!
🔥 Better Recovery: Reduce muscle soreness and recover faster from workouts with a protein-packed diet.
🛌💤 Stronger Immune System: Protein supports the production of antibodies and immune cells, helping you stay healthy.
🦠👊 Gorgeous Hair & Skin: Protein is crucial for the growth of healthy hair and maintaining youthful, radiant skin.
💁♀️✨ Stable Blood Sugar: Protein helps regulate blood sugar levels, reducing the risk of energy crashes and cravings.
📉🍭 Bone Health: Protein contributes to bone density, keeping your skeletal system strong and resilient.
💪🦴 Mood Enhancement: Amino acids found in protein play a role in neurotransmitter production, potentially improving your mood.
😊🧠 🍽️ Ready to take the plunge? Incorporate lean meats, fish, eggs, dairy, beans, and nuts into your diet to hit that 100g+ protein daily goal. 💼
STEP 2: MOVE MORE
Move more to:
🔥 Boosts Metabolism: We’re meant to move! The body works more efficiently when your activity levels increase.
🍏 Burns Calories: Walking to the tram or to work, taking a longer route to your preferred coffee shop or meeting and taking the stairs are easy ways to expand extra calories. Extra calories that would otherwise have to come out of your diet…
💪 Builds Lean Muscle: Weight lifting increases calorie output, but more importantly builds and rebuild muscle mass that will further boost your metabolism.
💧 Improves Energy: Counterproductive, but the more you more, the more energy you’ll have. So get a workout in and avoid those energy slumps.
😄 Enhances Mood: You are always happier after a workout! Sometimes, just because it’s done for the day…
Get moving to reach your weight loss goals faster! 💥
STEP 3: SLEEP
Sleep more to have:
💡 Boosted Productivity: Getting enough sleep will help your brain and body function better.
🧠 Sharper Focus: When tired, concentrating on a task whether small or big becomes an effort.
🏋️Enhanced Athletic Performance: Sufficient sleep will get you better at your choice of physical activity. Whether it’s running, gym, football or in bed activities, you will get more enjoyment out of them when you’re rested.
🤩 Glowing Skin: Regain that healthy glow to your skin when it has enough time to repair at night.
🩺 Stronger Immunity: In autumn, we’re bombarded by germs. Help your body fight these efficiently, by providing it with the recovery it needs!
😁 Better Mood Prioritize your Zzz's for a happier, healthier you! 💪
