Most important non-gym habits?

[predrag]

@yeswin A: Sleep.

2: Nutrition

D: Proper routine that fits your goals.

@yeswin Don’t forget to get a decent amount of plain old water too. It helps with recovery apparently.

@yeswin Look into nutrition macros and make sure you hit your protein amount while staying within the allotment of calories. I’d also add more gym/exercise days.

 

[snap_eyes]

@yeswin Diet and sleep like everyone else said.

And then 10000 steps a day. Walking is so underrated, but it makes a huge difference and honestly helps the other two.

@yeswin Protein, protein and then when you think you've had enough, more protein.

@yeswin If you're like me and lazy about cooking. My work meals are the same 5 days a week. Chicken rice for breakfast and lunch, mango Greek yogurt and creatine smoothie pre breakfast, and a protein shake before lunch. Dinner is whatever the family decides on.

@yeswin Sleep

@yeswin Nothing makes as big a change as protein intake

 

[sweettea]

@yeswin Fill your plate with protein and veggies, limit sweets, lots of water and aleep

@yeswin Don’t eat like an asshole, drink water, make sleep a priority (especially this one imo), take it easy on the alcohol.

 

[chiropracticcenter]

@yeswin Fasting, meal prep, avoiding sugar (I still have trouble with this), and being active all day (I walk around a lot because I’m a health care worker).

 

[theist03]

@yeswin Prioritize sleep over all.

 

[mapaps]

@yeswin Eating is key & Sleep is also KEY…

@yeswin Sleep, salt.

@yeswin Having a sport beyond the gym is helpful to be surrounded by other fit people. You are the average of the people you surround yourself with

@yeswin Nothing really changed for me when I started working out until at about three months ago. I started eating a huge salad for lunch every day with a handful of protein and gradually worked my way up to protein smoothies for breakfast, salad lunch and a wild card for dinner.

I am 7 pounds down and counting (also see a lot more muscle definition) and this was in a span of three months. I also drink water during the day and have the occasional ice cream, cookie, or fries, but I really limit all of that to the weekend.

Good luck for you. I know that once I committed to the nutrition, all my hard work started paying off

@yeswin Eat right, sleep right, stretch

 

[vassya1983]

@yeswin Rest, water, protein, fruits and veggies, repeat

@yeswin I'd say cutting back on added sugars would be a good choice as a new habit. Cut out ice cream and candy as a dessert. Pick the lower sugar options for any foods/ingredients. Cut out sodas and bring in carbonated waters.
