While our kids and their activities may be our main focus, it’s important to still make yourself a priority, and you can easily keep your nutrition on track with a little planning ahead. This is currently the number one question/concern we are se[...]

Snack Station

Do you guys have a snack station at home? To be honest, I made this for Jaxon, because I am lazy! It seems like I'll be up working on things, cleaning, cooking, whatever...and the second I sit down, "Mom, I need a snack!" Well now I can say, "Okay, go get one!' I created a snack station on the bottom shelf of the pantry, so he can reach in, and grab a snack of his choice. But of course I have filled it with snacks I'm okay with him choosing. And he will bring it to me to open, so I can approv[...]

Recovery

Recovery...it's just as important as training and nutrition, in my opinion. When your body is fully recovered, you can perform at a higher level, and get a better overall workout in. Here are my main focuses when it comes to recovery: FISH OIL. It is full of Omega-3 fatty acids, which help reduce inflammation. Our bodies can not make Omega-3s, so it is important to supplement them. You can also get them from foods like fish, leafy green veggies, walnuts, flaxseed, etc. I take two fish o[...]

Meal Prepping with Ground Turkey

Because sometimes we get sick of chicken...I used ground turkey this week for our lunches. The first lunch I made was a take on a Mexican bowl with ground turkey, salsa, rice, black beans, and sautéed spinach and peppers. The second "lunch" I made was zoodles with tomatoes, parmesan and ground turkey. These meals aren't really a lunch, as they are much smaller, at least in calories and macros, however the amount of food is still pretty great. I made these because sometimes I have protein lef[...]
