Nutrition and consistency at the gym – how to start?

Nutrition is the answer to so many questions that pop up on our health and wellness journeys. Here’s a little taste of how to start:

Nutrition – think of adding in, not taking out. Instead of taking out your sweets, add in more protein, like a nice chocolate protein shake or a yummy protein bar. Add in that glass of water first thing in the morning or a salad before your meals. No need to FORCE yourself to let go of all your vices at one time.

As for exercise and consistency – start small for at least the first few weeks. Then add in some bigger pushes!

Trying to get healthy and stay healthy is f-ing hard! Everybody struggles with some aspect of it, no matter what they look like or what they tell you. There is no magic formula – a healthy lifestyle is a choice we need to make daily. This podcast is here to support, inform and entertain you on your journey toward health.
