Habits are the things that you need to put into place if you want to accomplish goals easily. With the right habits, your goals just start to materialize.
These are the habits that I’ve created to keep me ripped year round, as well as, full of energy, strong, and feeling good.
1. Drink 25% of your daily water consumption upon waking
– Get this done right when you get up. Have your water bottle where
you’ll see it when you get out of bed. I step out of bed, put on
some clothes, and drink my 48 ounce of water.
– This will jumpstart your nutrition for the day.
2. Track your food/eating – MyFitnessPal
3. Workout as if your life depends on it. Because it really does.
4. Breathing/meditation
5. Timed meals/water
6. Schedule EVERYTHING!!!
– Work, workout, eating, relaxation, pooping! Haha!
7. Sleep
– Make this a priority. Track it daily by hand, or with a sleep app
(I use WHOOP).
1. Stretching
– I do this right after I drink my water, and before I do my
meditation.
– You can do your own stretching/yoga routine. I know my hamstrings
and quad can always use extra stretching, so I usually pick one or
two muscle groups, and stretch them out for 5 minutes.
– You could also use a program like ROM WOD, if you want someone to
tell you what to do.
– It’s more about doing the stretching, than about what you’re
stretch.
2. Weekly journaling – Using any note taking app
– I call this Sunday Reflection Time.
– This only takes about 10 minutes, but could be longer if you get
on a roll.
– Include –
1. I learned – Write about anything that you learned that week.
2. I loved – Write about what you loved that week.
3. I’m going to change – If there is anything that you want to
change, put it here.
3. No email or social media
– This goes back to scheduling. You NEED to schedule times to check
your email and social media. DO NOT GET IN THE HABIT OF LETTING
THESE THINGS TAKE YOUR ATTENTION!!!
– Doing this will get you so much time back in your life that you
won’t know what to do with it. Just don’t go back to checking email
or social media.
