  1. Prioritize your workouts

Schedule your workouts as if they were important appointments. Put them on your calendar and treat them with the same commitment as you would a business meeting or a doctor’s appointment. By setting aside dedicated time for exerciseyou’ll be more likely to follow through and make it a habit. Consider trying different types of workouts to keep things interesting and cater to your preferences, such as yoga, strength training or dance classes.

  1. Incorporate physical activity into your daily routine

Look for ways to add more movement to your day. Opt for taking the stairs instead of the elevator (well I urge you not more than 2-3 floors! climbing stairs may really hurt your veins even might damage) walk or bike to work if possible or use your lunch break to go for a brisk walk. Even small changes can make a significant difference in your overall fitness level. Additionally, consider incorporating desk exercises or stretching routines to break up periods of prolonged sitting at work.

  1. Meal prep for success

Planning and preparing healthy meals in advance can save you time, money and calories. And fun isn’t it? Set aside time on the weekend to cook and portion out your meals for the week. This will help you avoid the temptation to grab unhealthy fast food when you’re in a hurry. Invest in quality food storage containers that keep your meals fresh and easy to transport. Experiment with new recipes to keep your meal prep exciting and delicious. There is great point here if you want to beat your food temptation. Human psychology calms down and tempt less to eat (normally if you eat more than you need) if you cook your own food.

  1. Stay hydrated

Carry a reusable water bottle with you and sip water throughout the day. Staying hydrated is essential for maintaining energy levels, improving digestion, and supporting overall health. If plain water isn’t your thing try adding fruit or herbs for a refreshing twist. You can also consume hydrating foods like cucumbers, watermelon and strawberries to help meet your daily fluid needs.

Stock your bag or desk with wholesome snacks like nuts, fruit, or whole-grain crackers to help you avoid the lure of vending machines and unhealthy treats.
