When it comes to our health and fitness, we tend to make it sooo damn complicated. This isn’t necessarily our fault. We are constantly bombarded with information from coaches and influencers on social media, to health and wellness companies trying to sell us the ‘next best thing’. It’s exhausting, overwhelming, and honestly..I’m OVER IT!I’ve been on my fitness journey for over 16 years now, and I’ve learned how powerful REPETITION is.No, it’s not the *sexiest* topic, or super exciting. It’s actually pretty boring..but that’s not a bad thing either!We tend to overcomplicate pretty much everything with our health and fitness - simplicity tends to throw us off, because we always think we need to be doing something ‘new’ or ‘different’. Really, we’re just adding more to our plates, but it’s not *actually* helping us in the long-term.Both your workouts + your nutrition don’t need to be ‘fun and flashy’ all the time - you shouldn’t be looking for a new workout program every month, or new recipes to make every single week! For your meals, find what works best for you and your family, and keep simple staple foods on hand (these have been a game-changer for me over the years)! At the end of the day, consistent, repetitive habits ARE what will lead you to success (this is applicable to many areas of your life). Stay focused, stop over complicating everything, and embrace the routine and repetition on your fitness journey!In this episode, we cover:Why our fitness journey has become so damn complicatedKeeping it ‘simple’ with our health & fitness + why we tend to always be looking for the ‘next thing’The one MAJOR thing that simplified my fitness journey + made it doable for me long-termUnderstanding that your workouts won’t (and shouldn’t) always be ‘fun and flashy’Uncomplicating your meals and nutrition so it’s not such a struggleThe simple mindset shift I made regarding my food & mealsHow staple foods can help you tremendously + my go-to staple foodsLinks/Resources:1st Phorm Level-1 Protein Powder1st Phorm Clear Protein1st Phorm Protein barsBuilt bars code: KRISTYCASTILLOFIT for 10% off!Join FIT CLUB, my monthly membership with workouts you can do at home or the gymPRIVATE COACHING is my 1:1 program (choose 3 or 6 month option)Connect with me on Instagram @kristycastillofit and @unfuckyourfitnesspodcast so we can keep this conversation going-be sure to tag me in your posts and stories!Join my FREE Facebook group, Unf*ck Your FitnessClick HERE for my favorite fitness & life things!Send me a text with episode ideas or just to say hi!
