Make 2020 the Year of Less Sugar
I’ve always been an advocate of no more than 10% of our daily calorie intake (at rest) encompassing added sugars for the many detrimental health reasons stated in this article. However, it is important to note that because sugar supports the metabolic demands of exercise, athletes need to consume more than sedentary folk. This is generally accomplished with the food/supplemental choices (e.g., sports drinks/chews/gels, honey, chocolate milk) many athletes consume intake before, during, and after training.
Make 2020 the Year of Less Sugar
One of the best things you can do for your health is to cut back on foods with added sugar. Our 7-Day Sugar Challenge will show you how.

Serena Williams Got It Right. Exercise Is Healthy During Pregnancy.
Hate that we live in a culture where there seemingly is more shaming than applause when a mother rocks a fitness routine in pregnancy. New guidelines encourages 150+ minutes of exercise, and not just the conversational type, in pregnancy as it has been proven to be good for momma and baby. I’m very happy my doctor, Wade Schwendemann, provided me with guidance and encouragement during my 2 pregnancies so I could enjoy running rather than feel like I had to hide doing so. It also encouraged me to research and publish a chapter on the subject matter for the Academy of Nutrition & Dietetics professional text. Kudos to all the women I have seen or currently seeing inspiring with a fit pregnancy!
