I Am Not a Runner and I Just Did a 5K - It Was Awesome
When our Fitness editor told me that I'd be running a 5K as a guest of the Tone It Up Retreat in Newport Beach, CA, several thoughts ran through my head after some initial laughter. Is it safe to run my first 5K without any training or preparation? Could I do it? Would I survive?
As someone who can barely walk home without panting, it was hard not to freak out a little. My friends' and family's responses went something like, "Oh, I don't know, man." The support was unreal.
Aside from a (sometimes) weekly dance class, I generally identify myself as a pretty inactive person. The last time I had competitively run a mile was in 8th grade PE - the last time I ran three miles? Oh, never. The running shoes I had purchased a month earlier for "motivation" barely left their box just the weekend before, and I could hardly call that a run. But I was so excited about this last-minute trip that I welcomed anything that was asked of me, including this 5K.
Fast-forward to the morning of when my nerves were stretching with me. Here I was, surrounded by 400 Tone It Up women, standing in my running shoes that had yet to be broken in.
Then, the shot was fired.
I started off slow, real slow. Ten minutes in, I was almost done with my first lap of four but my shins began to badly burn. Listening to Drake helped me push through to lap two when I thought, "OK, this isn't bad. I got this." But soon after, a fear of "Holy sh*t, I may not make it" quickly took over.
I tried to keep focused on the lyrics and my breathing, and it didn't hurt that this was a Rosé 5K with some bubbly waiting for us at the finish line. Half an hour in and I was on my final lap. Minus a couple 10-second walk breaks, I had maintained a steady pace the entire time and this, my friends, blew my freaking mind. As I approached the end, I surprisingly felt energized enough to pick up the pace so I decided to go full speed to the finish line. Yes, there were many girls who had finished long before I had, but I ended my very first 5K at 37 minutes, and hey, I felt pretty damn good for pushing through.
My first 5K made me realize that my fitness potential was completely hindered by how I viewed running. Since then, I've become more open-minded to fitness in general and less fearful of pushing my body. My new perspective has inspired me to continue to explore my physical limits and to even consider signing up for another 5K or even a 10K! But after some actual preparation next time around, of course.
In the meantime, here's seven things I learned from my first experience.
- Go at your own pace: As badly as I wanted to keep up with some of the runners, I knew I'd burn out quick if I tried. Instead, I kept slow, light steps throughout.
- A good playlist is everything: If it weren't for the help of Drake and Queen Bey, I'm really not sure if I could've made it on my own.
- It's OK to walk: There were many women who were killing it, but there were plenty of others who walked the race, too. Regardless of what anyone else is doing, just focus on what your body is capable of.
- Only take sips of water: While the sun was beating down hard on us, I had to resist the urge to gulp down. I took only enough sips to get me through each lap to prevent cramps from slowing me down.
- Nothing gets a girl running like Rosé: No, seriously, you should've seen some of these runners go. Why every race doesn't end with some is my question.
- It's all mental: I had the wrong outlook coming into the race, first of all. I already set myself up for failure based on what I thought I knew about my body. Especially feeling intimidated by the more experienced women around me, it was easy to get dissuaded. But self-encouragement can really make all the difference.
- You might surprise yourself: I definitely did. I was either going to embarrass or impress myself and thankfully, it was the latter. You really don't know what you're capable of until you try.
Make These 3 Changes, Burn More Calories
Exercise is essential when it comes to dropping pounds. So if you're eager to lose the weight, then here are three everyday changes that will help increase your calorie burn.
Hello Sunshine
Moving workouts to early mornings may mean cursing your alarm clock, but here's the big payoff: morning exercisers burn more calories. And now that the sun rises earlier, it'll be easier to pull yourself out of bed than it was in the Winter. Research shows that people who exercise in the a.m. work harder and for longer periods of time, which may be because they're more alert and energetic and they don't feel as rushed as afternoon or evening exercisers. Getting into a morning routine will also help you stick with it, which will help even more with your weight-loss journey.

Get Speedy
When it comes to cardio, running will help you lose more weight than walking since it burns more calories, but if you increase your speed just a little, then you'll burn even more. And don't stick to a consistent pace the entire workout. Adding sprinting intervals is an effective way to increase your calorie burn and has also been proven to reduce belly fat. Also be sure to swing those arms as you move, and you'll burn 15 percent more calories.

Strength Train in the Ladies' Room
Muscle burns more calories than fat does, so the more muscle mass you have, the better it is for weight loss. Don't just hit the weight room at the gym. Include strength-training moves throughout your day, such as push-ups on the bathroom counter and this two-minute butt and thigh workout while brushing your teeth. You can also work your body by carrying a basket instead of pushing a cart, using the stairs whenever possible, and sitting on an exercise ball instead of a chair.

The Best News For Gluten-Free Gals Who Love Panera

Panera has made big strides to remove artificial ingredients from their food, so we hope that this gluten-free roll will follow suit.

Why You Shouldn't Feel Guilty About Making Yourself a Priority
On those days when our endless to-do's are looming over us, it's hard not to feel guilty about fitting in a workout. But it's important to remember to put ourselves at the forefront from time to time. Apply "treat yourself" to how we take care of and treat our bodies - not to excuse our splurges and confectionary overindulgences. Tone It Up cofounders Katrina Scott and Karena Dawn have a similar approach to this ever-popular phrase but with a slight spin that we absolutely love: "'You deserve it.' We say that to each other a lot, too," said Katrina. "We'll text each other that. When I'm going to this class in the morning or do this workout, there's so much to do in the day to spend your time on, but you know what? You deserve it."
The fitness gurus' favorite mantra can and should also be applied to the opposite. You know those days when you're just not feeling it? Switch gears from getting down on yourself for wanting to skip a workout to coming terms with a day off. Karena advises "Not to feel guilty . . . let yourself relax for a day." And when you're stuck in a rut, there's a simple solution that can do wonders for your spirit. "Just get out and get fresh air. There are days when you maybe can't get a workout in, but it's OK, you pick it up the next day," Karena said.
Being kind to yourself benefits not only you, but those around you, as well. You'll feel more balanced and rested, and overall more positive. Remember, being distracted by guilt-ridden thoughts doesn't make someone good company. Overworking yourself or feeling remorse for making yourself a priority are both incredibly unhealthy habits. So next time you're debating some much-needed r&r, give yourself a break because well - you deserve it!
The Amount of Calories You Actually Burn in Yoga
Deciding if a workout is worthwhile shouldn't be based on how many calories you burn; there are other factors to consider, like if you got your heart rate up, improved your balance and strength, or amped up energy levels. Because yoga makes me stronger and more flexible, it really doesn't matter that much how many calories I burn, but out of curiosity, I thought I'd see how my classes stack up in the calorie department thanks to Health Status's calorie calculator.
| Type of Yoga | Calories burned (1 hour / 150 lb. person) |
|---|---|
| 4. Hatha Yoga | 189 |
| 3. Ashtanga Yoga | 351 |
| 2. Bikram | 477 |
| 1. Vinyasa | 594 |
I was really shocked to see Vinyasa yoga as the type of yoga that burns the most calories. I assumed it would have been Bikram because you sweat so much in hot yoga. Contrary to popular belief, as we've already learned, don't rely on sweat as a gauge of how intense an exercise is. A combination of heart rate and perceived effort are much better indicators of how hard you are working and how much energy you are expending.
You'll Never Guess the Reason For 20,000 ER Visits
While there is no magic pill for weight loss, many people still try diet pills, and instead of losing weight, they're ending up in the ER. A new study published in the New England Journal of Medicine led by the FDA and CDC found that severe injuries caused by taking weight-loss and energy-enhancement pills accounts for more than 20,000 emergency room visits. And about 10 percent (about 2,150 cases) were serious enough to require hospitalization. We're talking allergic reactions, nausea and vomiting, dizziness, chest pains, heart palpitations, and irregular heart rhythms tied to a wide variety of diet pills including herbal supplements, amino acids, and vitamins and minerals.
The business of diet pills is a rapidly growing $32 billion a year industry, and the health of consumers is at risk because of the low level of regulation. Under a 1994 federal law, supplements are considered safe until proven otherwise, and unlike prescriptions, don't need the FDA's approval, and don't need to list side effects on the label. Sounds pretty sketchy!
The study only tracked hospital visits, not deaths, so there's no data about how many of these visits were fatal. But this is a huge wake-up call to those who are trying to lose weight this way. Even Carrie Underwood admitted in an interview with People that in 2005, she turned to weight-loss supplements to slim down. She was "taking things with ephedra in it," and says, "If I could go back and talk to myself I'd be like, "Here's how you do it the right way.'"
These supplements are widely advertised online, in magazines and on TV - Hydroxycut, Xenadrine, Raspberry Ketones and Black Jack Energy are just a few. If you're trying to lose weight, this is definitely not the safest solution. Your best bet is to do it the old-fashioned way with eating right and exercise. It'll take longer, but you're more likely to keep the weight off, and it'll benefit your total overall health without a single risk.

Vegan Foods That Are High in Vitamin B12
I'm not a full-fledged vegan by any means, but I'm up for trying a delicious animal-free meal every now and then. But even when going vegan on occasion, I can see how careful you must be when planning what to eat, including thinking carefully about nutrition.
Of course, since vegetables are the stars in a vegan diet, there's no lack of options that are chock-full of vitamins - except for ones only found in animal products, like vitamin B12. And while vitamin B12 deficiency is rare, the nutrient is essential for maintaining a healthy nervous system as well as healthy blood cells, so it's important to get enough in your diet. Most women need 2.4 mcg of the vitamin a day (a little more if you are pregnant or breastfeeding).
Since the best sources of B12 come from meat, fish, eggs, and chicken, long-time vegans may need to look to other sources to make sure their levels of B12 stay full. Besides taking a vitamin supplement, which vegan-friendly foods are high in B12? Find out after the break.
Make These 5 Changes to Boost Your Metabolism All Day
Have a sluggish metabolism? Fight back by doing these things throughout your day to boost your metabolism from morning till night.
- Choose these every time you eat: Sounds crazy, but the chewiness of fruits, veggies, and whole grains makes your mouth work harder, and the high-fiber content also takes more energy to digest, which combined adds up to a 10 percent increase in calorie burn. Choose these foods in their whole, natural state to reap more of the metabolism-boosting benefits.
- Lean protein, too: Protein also requires more energy to digest while keeping you feeling full and satisfied, so be sure to include this essential nutrient in every meal and snack.
- Drop and give me 20: Right before every meal and snack, get on the floor and do 20 to 50 push-ups (choose the amount for your strength level). Short bursts of exercise can lead to an afterburn of 200 calories throughout the day, and lean muscle also burns more fat.
- Sip green tea or water: Green tea contains catechins, an antioxidant that raises resting metabolism by four percent (about 80 calories a day). If you're not into this beverage, sip plain old water throughout the day to avoid dehydration, which can slow down metabolism.
- Take five: Stress not only leads to high-calorie snacking - it can actually slow your metabolism down. So it's important to take regular breaks from your busy day. If you have a desk job, meditating may not be the best choice as studies have shown that sitting for an hour or more reduces the fat-burning enzymes in your body by as much as 90 percent. Get up and dance to your favorite song, go for a quick five-minute brisk walk, or move through this de-stressing yoga sequence.

The V-Sit Fly Is the Ab Exercise You've Been Looking For
To chisel your abs and strengthen your core, add some dumbbells to your core workout. Adding some weight forces the fibers in ab muscles to activate more fully, making each rep more effective. This V-sit variation is a stability exercise, where you train your torso to remain still as your arms move away from your center. It's a must-do move and great for endurance athletes.
Related: Standing Ab Exercises With Weights
Start with a set of five-pound dumbbells and work toward using eight-pounders.
- Begin sitting with your heels planted about two feet from your butt, holding the weights at chest level with a slight bend in your elbows. Keeping your spine straight, lean back a few inches, pulling your abs toward your spine. Do not let your lower back round.
- Keeping the left arm still and torso stable, exhale as you open your right arm to the side, making sure the weight doesn't go beyond your shoulder. Looking forward, you should be able to see your right hand in your peripheral vision.
- Inhale as you bring your right arm back to center to complete one rep. Complete 10 reps with the right arm, using every exhale to deepen your abdominal connection by actively pulling your navel to your spine.
- Ten reps on each side completes a set, and we recommend doing at least two sets.

Here's What Happens When You Go Off Birth Control
Between reports of health complications and more women thinking about IUDs, you might be considering a break from birth control pills. If you're concerned about what this change will do to your body, here's some information and advice from a board-certified physician who practices in southern California.
Dear Doctor,
I have been taking birth control pills for 10 years and things have shifted in my personal life and I no longer need to worry about getting pregnant. I want to go off this pill but am worried what will happen to my body and my cycle. Can you tell me what I should expect when I stop taking the pill? Will I gain weight? Will I break out? Will my period be just awful? Also, how long will it take for my hormone levels to return to normal?
- No More Pill For Me
Let me take off my lady doctor cap for a moment and share with all of you that I went through this very same issue last year. After years on the pill, I stopped taking it and will give both some professional and personal advice on this matter with you.
To begin, the birth control pill works by preventing ovulation. Once you stop taking the pill, the hormones are out of your body quickly, usually within a couple of days (this is why women who miss a couple days of pills on birth control have a chance of ovulating and getting pregnant!). Another important point to make is that it does not matter how long you were on the pill, from 10 weeks to 10 months to more than 15 years, your body will still be rid of the hormones within a couple of days!
Once the hormones are out of your system, your body will begin to start producing hormones to initiate menstrual cycles. Some women will begin to ovulate in a couple of weeks, whereas it may take several months for other women to begin to ovulate. Generally speaking, your body should be back to "normal menstruation mode" within two to three months after stopping the pill. It is important to emphasize that if you had problems with ovulation prior to starting the pill, you may continue to have irregular ovulation/periods after stopping the pill. Most women with normal ovulation/periods prior to starting the pill will continue to have normal ovulation/periods after stopping the pill. But some women who had regular periods prior to starting the pill may have irregular ovulation after stopping the pill. The key point here is that everyone's experience with ovulation/periods after stopping the pill is different!
There is a condition called post-pill amenorrhea (or lack of menstruation) that can occur after stopping the birth control pill. According to the Mayo Clinic, the reason for lack of menstruation in these women is that the body is just taking longer to produce the hormones necessary for ovulation and menstruation. If you still haven't had a period after three months, they recommend taking a pregnancy test. It would be prudent to also schedule an appointment with either your primary care physician or gynecologist for evaluation. Some women never get a period after they stop taking the pill because they ovulate and conceive right away after the discontinuation. If you do not want to become pregnant, use another form of contraception such as condoms or a diaphragm.
Many women take certain birth control pills to regulate their acne. Once you stop using birth control, you may notice an increase in acne on your face or on other parts of your body. When your body's hormone levels regulate again, the acne can subside in some cases. As far as weight fluctuation is concerned, it has been shown that birth control pills that are higher in estrogen may cause weight gain and water retention. Therefore, your body may adjust after stopping the pill and some weight loss may occur due to a decrease in water retention. Again, each woman's experience may be different. Case in point, I did gain some weight after I stopped the pill, but it may have been because of other factors due to the stress of trying to conceive, which is why I stopped taking the pill. Many birth control pills are designed especially to help treat exaggerated premenstrual syndromes or, in certain women, premenstrual dysphoric disorder. Thus, some women will notice increased breast tenderness and other premenstrual symptoms such as nausea, headaches, and fluctuating emotions.
I'll finish by telling you more about my experience with stopping birth control. I had regular menstrual cycles before I started the pill, but this was not the case after I stopped the pill. It took approximately two months to get my first period off the pill, and they were very irregular after that (ranging from five weeks to 12 weeks between periods). After seeking consultation with my gynecologist after one year of irregular cycles, I was diagnosed with oligo-ovulation, which basically means I ovulate very infrequently. They could not find any medical cause for this problem after an extensive workup. At first, I felt like something was wrong with me or that I had done something in my lifetime to cause this. But I now realize I am not alone and that there are many women out there going through the same problems I am going through! Hopefully, if any of my readers are going through the same problem as me, they can feel better knowing that there are many women out there (including myself) that are going through it as well!

9 Awkward Gym Moments You Wish You Could Take Back
When you spend a lot of time at the gym working out, embarrassing moments happen. When these things occur, it's important to laugh it off, pick yourself up, and stay on track. Hopefully these are simply memories of the past you can look back on and laugh at - and nothing feels too fresh or painful.
How Quinoa Can Help You Lose Weight
There's good reason quinoa has been a staying trend in the healthy food scene. It's delicious, nutritious, and filling, all while supporting your healthy weight-loss goals. If you're on a mission to shed a few pounds, here's why you should always have a batch ready to enjoy in your fridge.
It's high in fiber: If you can believe, just one cup of cooked quinoa offers a 21 percent of your daily recommended fiber. A high-fiber diet keeps digestion regular and keeps bloat at bay - two essential aspects of a comfortable weight-loss plan.

It's a solid source of protein: For vegetarians sick of beans, tofu, and tempeh or anyone who wants to back off meat at every meal, quinoa can be a lifesaver. Getting adequate protein is essential for weight-loss success, and quinoa offers a surprisingly high amount of protein for a pseudograin; just one cup offers eight grams.

It makes you feel fuller for longer: If you regularly reach for toast or rice at meal time, swapping it out for quinoa could have big benefits for your waistline. One study out of the British Journal of Nutrition found that participants felt fuller after eating quinoa, buckwheat, or oats than after eating wheat or rice.
Just Finished a Run? Try One of These Recovery Snacks
It may seem counterintuitive, but eating after a strenuous workout is a must - especially foods containing a mix of protein and carbohydrates.

It is ample to make you would like to recreate Prohibition. Yet in the event that restricting to 1 drink a new night time every so often feels like a new prison phrase, get coronary heart: there are methods to kick back having an older cocktail rather than have the entire body connected with Homer Simpson; such as, adhere to spirits on the rocks or maybe blended with seltzer or maybe water (no fizzy margarita combination for you), as well as rely the unhealthy calories.

Healthinessfit: What You Can Do Right Now to Banish Belly Bloat
- Put this down: Not only is too much sodium bad for your heart, but it will also cause you to retain water — and not just in your belly — so stop yourself the next time you reach for the salt shaker. Extra sprinkles aren't the only way we consume too much sodium. Limit high-sodium foods such as hot dogs, cottage cheese, bacon, soy sauce, and chips.
- Sip this: When you're belly is bloated, filling up on water seems like the last thing you want to do, but it helps prevent bloat in two ways. When you're not drinking enough fluids, your body retains water to prevent dehydration. So sipping nature's beverage can actually reduce water retention. Drinking water also prevents constipation, which is another cause of a bloated belly. Also include foods with high water content such as watermelon, celery, grapefruit, and cucumbers.
- Limit this: Some foods such as beans, broccoli, pears, onions, and carbonated drinks create more gases in your body than others, so limit these foods. Dairy can also cause some people gassiness, so if this sounds familiar, hold the milk, ice cream, yogurt, and cheese, and look for dairy-free alternatives.
- Eat this: Fiber helps everything move through the intestines more quickly, which prevents constipation and bloating. If you're not accustomed to eating enough fiber, then slowly add more and more fiber to your diet — go too fast, and you'll feel even more bloated than before. Include berries, avocado, kiwi, beans, whole grains, and other high-fiber foods in your meals and snacks every day.
- Slow down: One small cause of bloating could be that you're swallowing too much air when you're scarfing down your meals; this is why some of us get the hiccups when eating too quickly. Slow down when you eat, and really chew your food.
- Get tropical: Eating pineapple can ease bloating too. This tropical fruit is high in the enzyme bromelain, which helps break down protein and eases digestion, helping to banish the bloat. Here's a bloat-fighting smoothie recipe to try that's made with pineapple.
- Get moving: Daily physical activity can also prevent constipation, so aim for 30 minutes a day.
- Cheers to this: Alcohol is another cause of bloat since it causes dehydration, which as mentioned above, can lead to water retention. For your health and your belly's sake, stick to one alcoholic beverage, and follow it with a huge glass of water.

How to Have the Best Evening Workout Ever
If your morning starts early and a midday workout isn't an option, an evening workout might be the only thing that fits into your busy schedule. Getting into the groove of consistent nighttime workouts can prove to be tough for people who prefer to exercise in the morning; if you can relate, remember these tips to make sure stick to your late-night workouts and have a better overall experience.
Pay in advance
It's harder to bail on an evening workout when your hard-earned money has already been spent. This makes such a big difference - and is a major reason I've never skipped out on a SoulCycle class or a prebooked yoga session. Register ahead of time whenever possible! It's one of the best ways to make sure you stay on course and commit to your workout.
Time meals right
Eating a big dinner and heading straight to a workout can zap your energy and lead to digestion issues. No matter what time of day you choose to exercise, make sure to plan your workout two to three hours after your meal. This might mean eating dinner at the office before you head to the gym or having a light post-workout meal ready to go once you get home. Try eating at different times to find that sweet spot that supports your workout performance.
Go straight from work
If you head straight home after a long day, you won't be as likely to stick to your workout - some nights that couch looks too inviting! Instead of making a pit stop at home, prep all your workout clothes the night before and bring your gym bag with you to work. If you need to stop at home before your workout, don't spend time sitting on the couch or catching up on calls. Drop your things, change clothes, and get moving.
Stay hydrated
Dehydration can lead to cramping, lack of energy, and a slew of other issues that can hinder your workout. Make sure you're drinking water all day long at the office plus right before, during, and after your workout. Not only will this ensure the best workout possible, but you'll also wake up the following morning feeling energized and ready to take on another busy day.
Pencil it in
Even with the best intentions, it's easy to skip workouts, opt for other activities, and realize on Friday evening you haven't worked out once all week! Treat your evening workout schedule like you would an important business meeting - it's an event that's set in stone. Write down your workouts in your calendar to help them stick and to prevent you from double booking.
Go in with a plan
If your only option is working out late at night, chances are, your schedule is pretty tight. Instead of wasting any precious time dawdling around the gym, show up with a plan in place. You can always head to a group fitness class or print out one of our challenging cardio routines, but remember: you can always get an effective sweat session in at home with all our video workouts.
Dress the part
When you love to exercise outdoors, it can be tough to drag yourself into the gym - just because you have to work out later doesn't mean you can't get outside! With that said, it's important to be extracautious with your routine and your workout wardrobe late at night. If you'll be hitting the streets, stay safe with reflective gear, and while it might be tough, consider leaving your headphones at home, so you'll be more aware of your surroundings. Check out our other safety tips for outdoor nighttime workouts.
Have a reward ready
Knowing that there's something fun ready for you after a workout will keep you on track. Think about how amazing it will feel to relax and recuperate or reconnect with friends after you've gotten a serious workout under your belt. Just be sure to plan things far enough out in the evening so you can kill that time with an awesome workout.

A 25-Minute Treadmill Workout to Help You Become Your Strongest, Fastest Self
Given that running is such a solitary sport, it can be quite an endeavor to push past a plateau. It's not at all unusual for months to go by before realizing you've been doing the same stale run over and over again. Equinox's latest running class offering, Precision Running, changes that for the better. Designed to help students become both stronger and faster runners, the entire class takes place on a treadmill and is led by an extensively trained (and motivating) running coach. Trainer David Siik, the creator of Precision Running, explains that no two classes are alike, but all will help you progress to become a better runner - before you know it, you're setting PRs.
For those not able to make it to a Precision Running class, David designed this pyramid speed workout to use the next time a treadmill beckons you. "The challenge is to build speed as intervals get shorter going up a pyramid. You must then use your fastest speed you reach at the end of the first segment on every interval as they get longer again in reverse," says David. Before beginning, David says to imagine the fastest you can go for a 30-second sprint, then start this workout exactly two miles per hour under that goal. (We've included some suggested speeds depending on your level.) The workout is designed in such a way that even though you never reach your peak sprinting pace, you are still conditioning the body to become faster overall. This method puts less impact on the body, preventing injury later down the road.

Heading Off to College? Here Are Some Tips to Help You Avoid Gaining the Freshman 15
Starting a new school year can be really stressful. Along with that stress comes sleepless nights, breakouts, and even weight gain. Keep reading for some helpful tips on how you can keep your schedule and body feeling regulated in this post originally featured on Fitness Fashionista.
Summer is coming to a close and many are heading off to college so I thought it would be great to help you all start the school year off right.
I know a thing or two about college and weight gain. I have spent the last 8 years in college. Just last year I wrapped up my college career. After 8 years I had 2 degrees and some extra pounds to go along with them.
School and school schedules can be chaotic and hectic. You are trying to balance studies, social life, extracurriculars and your health.
1. Create a schedule - You have your syllabus in hand now sit down and create a solid schedule. Write your class schedule, assignment due dates, and test in planner.
Once you do that fill in the rest of your schedule with dedicated study time, exercise classes, meals and social time.
This will help you maximize your time and fit everything into your busy schedule.
2. Get an app - Your schedule may be jammed pack and fitting in exercise can be difficult. There are some amazing apps that will help you squeeze in a quick workout between classes. Try Quick Fit, 7 Minute Workout, and Sworkit.
3. Track Your Calories - Knowing what you are putting into your body is important. If you have a clear picture of what you are eating it will make it easier to stay on track. Try MyFitnessPal.
4. Snack Healthy - You may be up all night studying and cramming for you next big exam but don't reach for those cookies, chips and energy drink. You will do better in school if you eat healthy even when it comes to snacking.
Instead of reaching for a processed snack create your own fruit cups and healthy snack packs. If you have them already prepped it makes it easy to grab them and go.
5. Get Involved - Being active on your campus can be a great way to avoid unwanted weight gain. Join active organizations and groups on your campus. Many campus organizations get together to do fun events as well as community service. All of these can help you to stay active while getting to be social and meet new friends.
6. Get Your Beauty Rest - You may be thinking easier said than done. Believe me I have been there and I thought the same thing. Lack of sleep cost me quite a bit. I spent quite a bit of time sick.
Sleep is when your body repairs and renews itself. By creating a schedule and sticking to it you should be able to stick to a routine that allows for plenty of sleep.
However during high stress times like finals you may find sleep hard to come by so try the sleepyti.me bedtime calculator to maximize the little bit of time you may have to sleep.
