ALT.Lifestyle Health and Fitness

+1 😊🎊.
Grateful🙏🏾.

Define what success means/looks like to you. Not to your family, not to anyone around you, just YOU.

Start aligning your habits to fit that gradually.

Do it thoroughly and early enough.
Otherwise you’re going to spend so much time chasing every single thing.

Thank you for the messages, checkins, treats, blessings, wishes😊.

Random qualities you get once you’re a mom;

✨Suddenly become ambidextrous
✨Endless patience.
✨Strength to lift heavy sh*t(nothing heavier than a sleeping child😭).
✨Ability to see things your child somehow can’t especially when you send the child for said things.

Happy Mother’s Day😊!

Kind reminder.
Nothing wastes time quite like having no plan.
Schedule that workout!

If you know you know.
Stay safe out there and guard your PH levels.😊

Functional training!
Exercises that help you perform your day to day activities even better, make your life easier all around.

Your training should be improving all aspects of your life, not just what you think you need to look like.

Address all four of these in whatever type of training you prefer to do and all will fall in place.

Happy training😊💪🏾.
Ps: don’t forget to sign up for our FIT MOM’S class or tell a friend who needs it.

Kind reminder.

Try out those workouts you’ve bookmarked and saved for months!

It’s CRUCIAL that you stay active outside of your typical “exercise time”.

It all adds up to ensure your goals especially in most of us whose lives are predominantly sedentary!

Share with someone who needs this!

Children are not a distraction from more important work.
They’re the important work!

It’s crucial that our kids learn how to eat right early on.

It’s our responsibility to make sure we not only teach them this but also be examples.

Wishing you a smooth journey this school season!😊

Kind and loud reminder ALT fam😊.
With love from us.

How’s day three going friends???
Let me talk about some of the complaints I got in the DMs.
There’s a general worry about feeling “weak” once you cut out most of the processed sugar/foods.
Unless you’ve been consistently having over 80-100gms of added sugar daily, you won’t experience any withdrawal symptoms. They include headaches , muscle aches, irritability, anxiousness.
But I’m sure most of you haven’t been on such high levels of added sugar that it can lead to these symptoms once you’ve cut it out. If you have and are therefore experiencing these symptoms, please increase your water intake, fruit intake and rest more till your body adjusts.

And I want to emphasize that the energy you get from vegetables, fruits, grains, legumes , tubers and natural foods is way better and lasts longer throughout the day so don’t worry about having low energy for your activities.
Actually it will be the opposite, you will be so energized all day!💪🏾.
So keep eating healthy, let’s get our bodies used to fueling the right way!!!!.
Tag me and in your daily experiences in your stories orDM me and I’ll help😊.
Have a wonderful day❤️.
Ps: don’t forget your activity of the day- deep squat hold!!!!!

Hello friends 😊❤️.
First of all HAPPY NEW MONTH!!!!
Banaye the year is rushing past and some of us(me in particular) are panicking 😭.
I know the year is now halfway gone and most of us had made health related goals in January.
If you fell off the wagon, worry not, 6 months is still enough time to get back.
Let’s start with this 21 day challenge.
The aim is to create awareness on the dangers of processed sugars and excessive alcohol consumption. It’s also for all of us who struggle with sugar cravings, are looking to reduce abdominal visceral fat, stabilize our blood glucose levels and generally learn how to survive and thrive without added sugars. And in doing this together , have a support system and learn new tricks , recipes and so much more about your body’s physiology and sugar metabolism.

Each week we will have an activity of the week to do every morning and a lesson about added sugars /alcohol.

Join and see what a difference this makes for you. I’ll be looking foward to sharing your testimonials after the 21Days😊💪🏾
Make sure to tag a friend down below and post your daily experiences with the hashtag and tag me. I’ll be sure to help out in any way I can.
So who’s joining??!!!!!!!
A special Thankyou to who are with us on this journey. Helping us stay hydrated as always❤️😊.

Morning workouts people, roll call is here🙋🏾🙋🏾‍♀️😅.
I often get asked what the best time to workout is and here’s my take on it.
We all feel different post workout. Some of us are revved up for hours after while the rest of us just want to sleep 😴. Depending on how your day is set up, plan your workout time according to your energy levels post the workout. If you’re the kind that gets super energized after and have to work right after, go for it. If you’re the kind that needs sleep after, then maybe do it towards the evening/after your work day. That being said, it’s not always like this. Life, work , kids happen and sometimes you just have to fix the time to workout at random hours. Which is okay. Make sure you set aside some time for physical activity whenever you can.
What is your best workout time and why?
