More and more diets
and programs seem to be promoting « eating clean », but that may mean
something different for everyone. There is certainly a lot of conflicting
information out there, but one thing that nearly all expert agree on is that
processed foods are not doing anyone much good.
However, like anything
else, the concept of eating clean can be taken to varying extremes. For
instance, a popular recent diet know as “The Whole 30”, forbids all processed
foods, including any dairy, legumes, grains or sugars for 30 days.
Although the Whole 30
will undoubtedly provide great results, many followers will likely have a hard
time maintaining such a rigid diet. That’s not to say that we all can’t start
eating cleaner today. After yesterday’s grocery shopping challenge, it seemed
fitting to have a whole foods challenge. Think about what you’re eating today.
How natural is it? Has it been altered, genetically modified or processed? If
so, is there a more natural option you can reach for instead? It may not be realistic for everyone to avoid
processed foods altogether, but focus instead on eating as many whole, natural
foods as you can.
What is one thing you
can change or alter in your diet to eat cleaner today?
Now for the dirtayyy……
There are plenty of
tough daily workouts that you can find online here:
Or here:
But I came across a
workout recently that sounds like it would be really challenging called Death
by (Insert single exercise here, i.e. burpees, squat jump, thruster, etc.).
Basically, the idea is to do the exercise once in the first minute, twice in
the second minute, three times in the third minute, and so forth, until you can
no longer make the number of exercises in one minute. It doesn’t sound all that
hard but if the exercise you chose is hard enough it gets tough quick. And to
make it even more challenging, try holding a plank or doing situps in between
doing the exercise!
