Thereโs nothing worse than having low energy.
Every task you set out to do becomes a chore.
When energy is low, donโt know about youโฆ
Exercise is not happening.
When energy is high, everythingโs that bit easier to do.
Like getting that workout done.
Or cooking that healthy meal instead of grabbing the takeaway menu.
Here are a few things that have helped me maintain higher energy levels ๐
1 Sleep is important!, get at least 7 hours.
When Iโve had poor quality sleep, energy is always that bit lower.
2 Maintain water intake. Aim for around 3-4 litres a day.
This is one I notice straight away if I donโt do it.
So easy to go through the day and drink next to nothing.
Get yourself a 2.2 litres water bottle from amazon, game changer!
3 Lower carbs at lunch time.
In the past, Iโd often have a big heavy meal for lunch.
With loads of carbs! Pasta, rice, bread, tatties etc.
This would often lead to me feeling like I could sleep in the afternoon ๐ด
Now, I aim to have a higher protein/fat meal with lower carbs.
For example, chicken curry with green veg.
Or salmon with green veg.
Basically having your normal lunch without the carbs ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Thatโs a few things that have helped me with my energy levels.
What have you found thatโs worked for you in the past?
Iโd love to hear in the comments below ๐
