I LOVE a Sunday I do!!!! Those of my members who are smashing their goals know how important it is to PLAN?.  Today they will be meal prepping and scheduling in their workouts & step building for the week ahead?️.  I’m no different ?‍♀️. If I’m going to successfully bring myself and my participants through next week I need to plan too?.

If you don’t already do this here are some of my ‘top tips’ ?

1. Plan your meals for the week

Take some time on Sunday to plan out your meals for the week. This will help you stay on track and avoid making unhealthy choices during the week. 

Here are a few tips for planning your meals:

  • Plan your meals around whole, unprocessed foods.
  • Include plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.
  • Choose lean protein sources, such as chicken, fish, beans, and tofu.
  • Limit your intake of processed foods, sugary drinks, and unhealthy fats.

2. Do some meal prep

One of the best ways to make sure you eat healthy during the week is to do some meal prep on Sunday. 

This will save you time and money, and it will also help you stick to your meal plan. 

Here are a few tips for meal prepping:

  • Cook in bulk. Cook enough food for multiple meals so you can have leftovers.
  • Store your food properly. Store your food in airtight containers so it stays fresh.
  • Freeze your food. If you don’t have time to eat all of your leftovers, you can freeze them for later.

3. Set a daily step target 

One of the best ways to improve your health is to get more steps in each day. 

Set yourself a daily step target.  Here are a few tips for getting your steps in:

  • Take the stairs instead of the elevator.
  • Park further away from your destination.
  • Walk or bike instead of driving whenever possible.
  • Take a walk during your lunch break.
  • Get up and move around every hour.

4. Schedule structured workouts into your week.

  • Choose a workout that you enjoy. If you don’t enjoy your workout, you’re less likely to stick with it.
  • Set realistic goals. Don’t try to do too much too soon. Start with a short workout and gradually increase the intensity and duration as you get stronger.
  • Find a workout or walking buddy. Working out with a friend can help you stay motivated and accountable.

5. Schedule relax and recharge time for mindfulness 

Here are a few tips for relaxing and recharging:

  • Make sure you practice good sleep health, aim to get a good nights sleep by going to bed at reasonable time and switch off your devices (no midnight scrolling)
  • Read a book. Reading is a great way to relax and escape from the stresses of everyday life and can help you drop off to sleep more easily 

By following these tips, you can start your week off right with your healthy Sunday to-do list. This will help you stay on track, achieve your goals, and feel your best.

Happy Planning,
