BodyRock Fat Burn Challenge | Day 16
Today we are kicking things off with a new 12 minute interval workout. I hope you guys are looking for ways every time you eat to get some of the Superfoods onto your plates.
A big point of this challenge is to start to change the way we think about exercise & food. It's one thing to challenge yourself to make healthier choices, but for that to work you actually have to have the right foods on hand. You have to have Superfoods in your kitchen - which means that they have to be on your grocery list, which means you have to think about what is good for you before you make that trip to Walmart or Tesco or where ever you go to buy your food.
Make no mistake eating better requires more focus, you need to be paying attention to your schedule so that you don't end up starving with nothing to eat but the tray of donuts by the office coffee maker. My point is that just like your physical training, making the right food choices requires work, focus and determination. You can't sleepwalk through your workouts and expect anything in the way of results and the same is just as true for your diet.
This first challenge is also about waking up, giving ourselves a shake and starting to look for opportunities to make better choices. If you want to make real change towards a leaner more healthy body, then collectively we have to wake up and start eating foods that actually support our health and our goals. It's just brutal to see people training at max intensity and then sabotage this effort by eating junk.
