Thanksgiving Calories Don’t Count, Right? If you think you are pretty conscious about the amount of food you put on your plate every year at your Great Aunt Bonnie’s house, think again… According to Consumer Reports, the average american consumes more than 4,500 calories at their Thanksgiving meal. WHAT?! I am 100% guilty for overindulging at Thanksgiving. It is incredibly difficult to pass up my grandmother’s homemade pumpkin pie that I get to enjoy only once a year. But if you are like me, I tend to eat appetizers before dinner and dessert afterwards… Confession time - I even go back for seconds about 3 hours later, after my nap of course. ....

When Was the Last Time You Had a Decent Stretch Session?

Stretching as well as warming up the body and cooling it down is extremely important to a workout. We need flexibility in the muscle and range of motion in the joints to keep our bodies healthy. Tight muscles can make you more prone to injury and limit you during your exercises. Important tips: - Stretching helps with range of motion in your joints by keeping the muscles healthy, flexible, and strong. - Without stretching pre and post workout, your muscles become short and stiff which will limit ROM and cause your muscles to weaken. - Dynamic stretching should be done BEFORE a workout to warm up the muscles and increase blood flow, and static stretches should be done AFTER a workout to ....

Be Your Own Fitness Powerhouse

Are you having trouble getting your fitness journey started? Everyone has their own intensity level. For example, I have worked my way up to the 18-inch box jumps while my friend is doing 24-inch box jumps. My other workout partner and I are always doing different weights and at a different pace. I may look at her and think, “That is where I want to be” but I know that we aren’t on the same level, and that’s okay! Don’t be afraid to MODIFY No matter what fitness level you are at, start small and work your way up! You don’t want to start out overdoing it because if you were to injure yourself it can set you back even farther. The easiest way to modify ....

Remember Your Proper NUTRITION

Exercise and nutrition go hand and hand. You are not going to see results without changing your diet as well. Check the ingredients on every label. If you do not know what an ingredient is, don’t put it in your body! Avoid processed foods and eat more greens! Stay consistent and start with small changes. Don’t restrict yourself too much because that’s when you end up binging or overindulging. Remember that drinks have calories too, so try to drink zero calorie drinks, AKA water! Because we all have different goals and body types, we don’t all eat the same amount of calories or even macro-nutrients (e.g, fat, protein, carbohydrates), but portion size is extremely ....
