I used to always work out on an empty stomach because eating beforehand would make me feel sluggish or give me a cramp.

Fasted did feel better — technically.

It wasn’t until I started running longer distances (8km+) that I began eating beforehand and noticed I felt faster, stronger, just better overall.

The sluggish feeling I used to get wasn’t necessarily from eating too much — more so from not being used to fueling before movement.
Digestion needs support to work optimally — just like muscles that are trained over time.

I’ll share some of my favourite pre-workout snacks soon — if you have any go-to ideas, drop them below, I’d love to try them.

Let it be messy.
Something I’ve been working on lately as a recovering perfectionist.

I was listening to share the other day,
and one thing she said that really stuck with me was this:
More reps.

Waiting to do things perfectly—
whether it’s nutrition, training, or building habits—
is usually what keeps people stuck.

It’s not the perfect plan that creates change…
it’s showing up consistently, even when it’s not perfect.
The people who actually see progress
are the ones who keep showing up.

So lately, I’m choosing more reps…
and letting it be a little messy.

What’s something you’ve been waiting to do “perfectly”?
