As hard as I try, I eventually get sucked into the social media scroll, and the more I do the more contradicting information I see. You should do this, you should do that, don't miss that, avoid this... it goes on and on, but what do I find to be one of the biggest lies in the fitness industry?!

If I could only pick just one (I think I smell a series coming through lol) I would start with this:

 One size fits all diet and workout plans 

We are not the same!

Nutrition and Fitness plans should take into account:

(In no particular order, at least most, ideally all, of these should be factored in)

2. Age

3. Weight (current and goal weight)

4. Goals

5. Activity levels

8. Health imbalances

3. Aim for veggie centric options when dining or taking out 

Prioritizing vegetables helps reduce your intake of excess calories, fat, carbs, sodium, and potentially sugar, as well as cancer-potentiating compounds from processed foods, packaging, and unhealthy cooking methods (like frying).

 Discover the incredible benefits of magnesium and how it can enhance your overall health and well-being. Magnesium is an essential mineral that plays a crucial role in numerous bodily functions, including nerve function, muscle relaxation, and energy production.

With today's modern and fast-paced lifestyle, many individuals may not be getting enough magnesium through their diets alone. This is where supplementation comes in, offering a convenient way to make up for any dietary deficiencies.

The benefits of magnesium are vast and varied. Not only does it promote a healthy heart by regulating blood pressure and preventing cardiovascular disease, but it also supports healthy brain function, promotes better sleep, and even aids in relieving stress and anxiety.

Additionally, magnesium is crucial for maintaining strong bones and teeth, optimizing digestion, and supporting a healthy metabolism. It can...
