π―ππ ππ ππππππππ ππππππππ ππππ πͺππππππππ . . . ππ π»βοΈβοΈ A hot topic with my clients right now is how to stay on track over the festive period. And whilst it is not essential to do so, many (myself included), often find it easier to switch off and enjoy the festivities if they know they are still taking steps towards achieving their goals. So how can you maintain progress during busy times? In the period of time between the two photos above I; π· Went to Berlin and sampled the GlΓΌhwein at every WeihnachtsmΓ€rkte! πΊ Enjoyed a few evenings out with Mr D and a few frothy bevvies! π Attended my works Christmas night out and devoured a roast with π’ππππππ the trimmings! π Had friends over for a festive curry and even ordered starters and sides! And I still managed to stay in a deficit and get progress. How? I planned! I made sure that I stayed active by getting out for a 30-minute walk, I made sure I stayed hydrated to avoid feeling lethargic by drinking at least 2-litres of water EVERY~SINGLE~DAY and I prioritised my protein intake, to support my goals. Why? Because these are my daily non-negotiables aka the building blocks for my progress β’ I didn't track a single thing in Berlin, but I knew that by keeping the foundations of my diet strong through implementing these, I wouldn't lose any of the progress I had made. There's no pressure to maintain progress over Christmas, but if you want to, it isn't impossible β’ In fact you can use all that yummy food to fuel some festive gains! I now have just 1 space left to get started with me before Christmas, so if you'd like some help navigating the festive season this year simply drop me a DM saying 'πππ₯ππ¦π§π ππ¦' and let's get you set for your happiest, healthiest, strongest Christmas ever!!! #progresspicture #beforeandduring #progressnotperfection #strengthgains #weightlossjourney2021 #fitnessprogress #liftweights #fitnessgirl #workoutinspo #noexcuses #strongisbeautiful #progressiveoverload #fitlife #onlinecoaching #gymgirlsdaily #leangains #personaltrainerlife #fitgram #fitnessgirlsmotivation #musclegrowth #leeds #westyorkshire #igleeds (at West Yorkshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXfvxRENL94/?utm_medium=tumblr
