Tracking calories and why it matters

There’s a reason why C-Suite executives are hitting the gym: being fit is one of the most impressive accomplishments right now.

Staying in shape shows you’re putting in the effort—something money can’t buy. It commands respect and requires a level of dedication that many people lack.

If you’re new to fitness and unsure where to begin, start by asking yourself: Where am I now, and where do I want to be?

If you’re unhappy with your current state and want to make a change, begin by learning the language of nutrition and tracking your food intake.

When clients sign up for my coaching, they receive:

✅ Calorie guidelines
✅ Protein targets
✅ Fiber recommendations
✅ Meal templates
✅ Tracking education
✅ Menu reviews

In short, if you’re not satisfied with how you feel or look, start by learning the basics of nutrition and tracking your intake.

What are antioxidants?

What are antioxidants and why are they important?

Antioxidants are naturally occurring molecules that help neutralize free radicals. Free radicals are unstable molecules that are produced in your body that cause diseases of aging such as dementia, diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular disease.

You may lead a healthy lifestyle and limit things like alcohol and processed meat, however, your body produces free radicals while doing everyday tasks like converting food to energy and exercising.

That’s why antioxidants are essential in your diet. Here are some of my favorite foods to eat in order to boost my antioxidant intake:

🥦 Broccoli – packed with vitamin C, glucosinolates, lutein, zeaxanthin, and flavonoids.

🥬 Leafy greens – spinach, kale, and swiss chard are rich in lutein and zeaxanthin.

🍓 Berries – blueberries, strawberries, and blackberries are excellent sources of anthocyanins and vitamin C.

🍠 Sweet potatoes – packed with beta-carotene.

Quest cheese crackers

Product Review: @QuestNutrition Cheese Crackers.

I enjoy sharing product reviews, although people often assume they’re sponsored. In reality, many brands restrict posts about other products and I want to discuss all of my favorite brands freely.

That being said, here’s my genuine review of Quest Cheese Crackers.

The macros are decent with 130 calories and 10g of protein. While they don’t quite pass The Test, they do offer 5g of fiber.

The taste is excellent too. The cheese flavor is spot on, and the spicy varieties are always bonkers good. I’m usually not a fan of cheese-flavored protein products, but Quest has done a fantastic job with these crackers.

Oikos Triple Zero

The name @oikos Triple Zero means that it has 0% fat, 0g added sugars and 0 artificial sweeteners. I love this product if you’re new to your fitness journey and still have a sweet tooth. Your taste buds shed over time, maybe you’re not a fitness cyborg like myself that plain yogurt and fruit will suffice for your sweet tooth. So if you’re new to changing your habits, this product might be an incredible place to start.
