(Un)Limited Movement at Home
Quarantine Life, Healthier Life?
Is your FitBit unhappy?
What if I tell you that you can be FITTER & HEALTHIER than before during your quarantine time?
Do you know you can have:
MORE TIME to workout
The one hour commute each day to work. You now get to replace it with movements at home!
Tip: Spend the 15 mins on cardio; 30 minutes strengthening, 15 minutes on flexibility
COOKING HEALTHIER by choice
Less GRAB & GO life. You get to control the meal that you are currently making. A balanced meal should contain 45-65% Complex Carb; 20-35% of Fats; and 10-25% of Lean Protein.
Tip: Meal prep with a lean protein & fats such as chicken breast; Complex carb such as Potatoes & vegetables
PRACTICING SELF CARE & SELF-LOVE
Again, less travel, more time to spend on taking care of yourself. There’s nothing wrong with spending more time on ourselves FIRST. You can’t take care of others before taking care of yourself.
Tips: Spend 10 mins each morning to meditate; the book that you always wanted to read but you have been putting away due to lack of time!
Enjoying more REST & Sleep
Sleep is one of the most important thing that most people neglect (myself included). Your body produces the most growth hormone while you're sleeping, which helps burn fat as well as repair and build muscles so you can increase strength and lose weight. With less traveling, you get MORE SLEEP.
Tips: HAVE A CUT OFF TIME for your work! If you find yourself working out and eating well but don’t see the results you want, you might want to check how much SLEEP are you having each night.
BUT WAIT! How do I get more movement at home without any equipment?
If you are someone that’s used to going to the gym, lifting weights, and love outdoors (just like me). This can be a tough time where we are forced to staying home. Living in NYC, we don’t have the space in our apartment to place a treadmill or a peloton bike (PLUS IT’S EXPENSIVE)!
You don’t need any equipment to have an effective workout! Here’s how you can get some movements at home:
Substitute weights with Household products such as water bottles/water jugs
Replace 30 mins run with a 10 minutes dance cardio or bodyweight HIIT
Here’s your opportunity to committed to STRETCH at least 10-15 minutes per day to improve your flexibility
CLEANING YOUR APARTMENT? That’s some movement too!
SOCIAL TIME: Grab your family member or call one of your friends and do a VIRTUAL workout together
