Here's the Deal: Fitness, Nutrition, & Mindset for People Who Don't Want Life to Suck


Put Your Nutrition and Fitness on Autopilot: Food Prep, NEAT, Gym

May 20, 2024

In today's episode, we dive into what it means to “fall to the level of your systems” in health and fitness, focusing on meal planning and prepping, getting in NEAT, and going to the gym. We share our own experiences and many practical tips for making food prep, meal planning, and nutrition easier. We also move into the fitness side of things, sharing the power of walking, explaining how to rack up steps throughout your days, and how to find your best gym schedule.


It’s all about setting yourself up for success in a way that's flexible and adaptable to your needs.


We chat about the importance of finding what works for you, emphasizing that there's no one-size-fits-all solution to health and fitness. We also share stories about what happens when things don't go as planned and how to adjust without feeling like you've failed. By the end of this episode, you'll have a bunch of ideas on how to create systems that not only support your goals but also fit into your life without adding stress.
