THINGS TO…
…DO 🧘♀️
This 5-minute lower-body flexibility routine
Stop whatever you’re doing and take five minutes to flow through this 5-minute lower body flexibility routine. It’s super simple and easy to follow along, but it will have your tight hips, stiff knees, and achy lower back feeling better in literally just minutes.
…KNOW 💭
Are you overtraining?
Hitting the gym hard and often is great…until it’s not. Then you end up burnt out and struggling to see any gains for weeks, if not months. But how do you know how much lifting is too much?
…EAT 🥫
This low-cal, high-protein sauce
What’s the one thing that makes dry chicken breast, a bowl full of ground beef, or a plate full of egg whites taste better? A good sauce. And that’s exactly what we’re bringing you with this week’s recipe. This low-calorie, high-protein sauce comes together with just a few ingredients and truly tastes good on everything.
FITNESS FACTS
Fitness Fact of the Week — Doing two or more “exercise snacks” per day can boost VO2 max by 5-17%. A recent meta-analysis found that short (5 minutes or less) moderate-to-vigorous efforts done throughout the day (2-10 times) improved aerobic fitness and muscular endurance in middle-aged and older adults.
