Whatever your goals may be, check out the 2019 fitness reboot plan!
It’s the New Year, which means it’s time for a new workout plan—and one that will actually make a noticeable difference. Do you want to lose your muffin top, or strengthen your body from head to toe?
There are many strategies you can use to transform your body, fitness level, and body mass, but our guide dives into the heart of the matter when it comes to fitness: nutrition and exercise. Whether you decide to focus more on cardio or strength training, you can adjust the quantity and intensity of our fitness reboot guide to meet your goals,
easily. Let’s begin!
Don’t believe the hype: skipping breakfast or obsessively counting calories is not the way to a lean, fit body. Breakfast is truly the most important meal of the day. Without it, you simply won’t have the energy, brainpower or even mental motivation to push yourself past the workouts that will strengthen your body. Stick to a sensible
breakfast composed of complex carbs, healthy fats, and protein for your pre-workout meal (whole grain toast, topped with nut butter, and a banana or scrambled eggs with oatmeal is a great choice!) Then, eat a small meal every three hours to keep your metabolism revving!
