Healthy Tips in the New Year for Maintaining a Healthy Lifestyle

The new year is an opportunity to continue my consistent fitness regimen and eating right.   A healthy lifestyle is about focus, commitment, and training.   Below are some of my tips on how I plan to continue making my wellness a priority.

Tips for Healthy Living

  • Preventative Office Visit and Lab Work – my insurance plan covers an annual preventative office visit and blood work.   This is extremely helpful with implementing changes.   I now take vitamins and fish oil supplements.  This helps with providing me with additional nutrients and vitamins.  Supplements are only helpful if eating the right foods.   Fish oil is a supplement that has omega-3 fatty acids, which help to reduce triglycerides and protect against heart disease.  
  • Annual Eye Exam –  My last eye exam was two years and I decided to add this my health to- do list.   After my examination, the optometrist suggested I continue to schedule once a year based on my age.   This was followed up by an exam and a new prescription.   If  it’s time for a new exam and prescription, if eligible you can try this new app from Warby Parker

 

  • Once you have a new prescription, you can check out Warby for new eyeglasses

 

 

 

  • Fitness Equipment

 

  • YouTube is my go-to for free fitness videos.  I have achieved a lot of progress with kettlebells, TRX, and resistance bands.   I need to add more to my equipment with additional dumbbells,  a heavier kettlebell, and a cycling bike.    Also, I like to add other workouts to diversify my fitness regimen.   Last month, I tried a boxing class and now I have to research adding a bag for boxing at home.    Some of the other workouts I enjoy are Barre, Yoga, and Pilates.
  • Food and Snacks – My favorite places for grocery shopping is either Wegmans or Whole Foods.   I am learning that paying a bit more for quality is worth it.
