So it is the season to be having parties and social gatherings for Christmas Me and my mates have one every year and it is always a blow out Lots of drink, plenty of food and then even more drinks....wellll out of my comfort zone 🤣 And it zapped my energy the next day and then all week But this is where your reason why 💪, killer habits 💪, world class basics 💪(whatever you want to call it) HAVE to kick in I was tired alllllll week. But when it was time to train (I have when I train booked in my phone diary) I trained We are doing the step challenge so even though 1 of my running days, my actual steps was only 2k....I made sure I got over 12k average for the week I had LOADS of calories on Saturday, so I made sure to plan my calories each evening for the next day throughout the week We should make memories and be Merry this time of year...BUT...we should always put the work in when we have to I was so so tired all week, but I didn't want to miss ticking my boxes The Phrase show up regardless has stuck with me for a long time and helps me get it done Whats your mindset or habits you are planning to use to get it done around the Christmas socials?

This is such a good way to get lots of veggies & fibre in! Can use this for bolognese, chilli, curry base, pasta, rice etc! I have BULK PREPPED this for the new year and made 7 Tupperwares of roughly 440g sauce each (same as a jar you would buy from the shop but you know exactly what's in it!). METHOD: - Dice all your veg & add to a roasting tin - Cut top of garlic and place open side up - Drizzle with 1-2 tbsp of olive oil (optional but make sure to track in cals!) - Roast in oven for 50 mins or until all veg is soft - Squeeze out the garlic. - Blend, add to a saucepan, add 2 large jars of passata and season to taste. - Split into Tupperwares & fridge/freeze until use! Mine has worked out at 204 cals per Tupperware & 10g fibre. Will differ depending on size/type of veg, how much you use, how many servings you make etc so to track make sure to create it as a 'Recipe' on our app or MyFitnessPal!

little bit of a different podcast to what I normally listen to but at a time of year where a lot of us are reflecting and looking back at the last year this is powerful! https://open.spotify.com/episode/4oNdVdNA9pdg3W2hheWSq4?si=TJAka8pMT8yLSrqhJuJFLA&t=6453
