The hills ⬇️
-The basics are still the most important.
Eat fruits and veggies, drink water, balance your meals, sleep 7+ hours, move your body, & avoid alcohol. If you’re constantly trying new supplements, but aren’t doing the basics, you’re wasting your time
-Most people overestimate how much exercise is doing for them and underestimate the power of nutrition, hydration and sleep. An active lifestyle is important, but if you think exercise is going to fix everything, you’re going to be disappointed in your results/performance
-You need a way to regulate your nervous system besides the gym. Exercise is great, but it’s still STRESS on your body
-Seed oils and processed foods aren’t inherently ruining your health. Like literally everything, there is a dose-response relationship and the dose makes the poison. You’re looking for something to blame instead of being introspective about your own nutrition and lifestyle habits and it’s not cute
--Normal doesn’t mean optimal. Just because a lab value is in the “normal range” does not mean you’re thriving. If you are symptomatic with a lab value that is towards the end of a reference range, it deserves attention.
-The scale is perhaps the worst indicator of your progress. Your fear of weight gain is sabotaging your ability to see the progress you ARE making. Let’s shift the focus to how much muscle you have and how STRONG you are.
If you’re still with me after that LONG caption, let me know in the comments which hill resonated with you!
