How to You Train?

How do you train?  Do you train at home?  At the gym?  On the track?  On your bike?  We all have our own ways of training. But when it comes to our diet and food do we carry that same training mentality into our eating?  Because we should be viewing it as no different.

Our eating should be viewed as training that continues every single day.  I am constantly thinking about food, not in sense of I’m hungry, but, what should I be eating, what do I still need to eat to get to my calorie count.  What are good decisions I need to make?

Approach your diet with the same intensity as you do the gym, or the treadmill or whatever your workout preference is.

Prep your meals and your snacks.  I can’t emphasize this enough.  We all have busy work schedules.  I am on the go constantly with my job, my hours change day to day so having a set schedule for when I eat is impossible, but I still work around it, and know “I need to eat these things by noon, these by 2, etc..”  The first thing I do when I get home from work is prep my smoothies, snacks, and lunch for the next day, and I make sure I get to bed early enough to wake up early to eat what I need to for breakfast.

Take your diet by the horns and kick butt. You’ve got this.
