The Gym at Prospect

Often people see the “super fit” working out at 5 or even 6 am. It is not a crazy jump to think that maybe training early in the morning could be a key to their success.
This is not true. You can train any time of day as long as you are fed, rested, hydrated and the most important factor, pushing yourself.

Training early in the morning may be the best thing for you depending on your schedule. It is not necessary. As long as you are consistent, and working hard.

How often do you need to workout in a week?

The answer really does vary by the person. One of the biggest factors is that you need to be able to recover from the training you do.
If you workout 3 times a week and eat enough food, get enough sleep and stay hydrated enough then you will make results.
You CAN workout more but only if your recovery can match.

Food. Sleep. Water. Reduce Stress.

3 Things that make getting to the gym, easier.

1. Having a PLAN. If you have a plan of what to eat for your pre workout meal, what clothes you are going to wear and having them already packed the night before. Making it to the gym becomes 100x easier.

2. Knowing what a “good workout” actually feels like. Some people think they need to murder themselves in the gym to have a successful gym session. Or they go in and barely try. Both can lead to burnout. The Key is to experience a “perfect” workout that is hard work but leaves you feeling better at the end of the day, not worse. (Personal Training helps with this :)

3. Having a guided workout program from a Personal Trainer. This way you know that every workout is tailored directly to you with your goals in mind. This peace of mind knowing you are always on the right path makes getting to the gym feel like a reward, not a chore.

This is one of those easy fast things you can prep and have on hand.
Turkey Meatballs with spices and herbs.
I usually like to make a batch of these and have them in the fridge, and have them with a different carb and veggie for a few nights in a row.

Cooking healthy high proteins foods does not need to be hard! It just takes prep time!
