Going to gym is a lot of work. I’m not talking sweating it out in a spinning class. I’m talking about getting there. I’ve never really thought about it but there is a direct correlation between time management/strong organizational skills and healthiness.
First off, you need to find time in the day to work out. Do you watch the Bachelor or do you go the gym? Do you sleep that extra hour or do you go to the gym? Do you pick your kid up after Art Camp or do you go to the gym? I imagine that healthy people can find a way to do all of those things. Black magic.
You also have to pack a bag. You need to make sure you have your gym membership card. A towel. Check. Shower flip-flops (Weird fungus everywhere). Check. A change of clothes. Check. Ipod. Check. You forget one thing and you are riding commando for the rest of the day.
Eating healthy is another thing. You have to plan out your meals. I know I have ate plenty o chocolate bars while I was thinking about what to eat for dinner. Snacking also needs to be planned out. Bad food seems to be easier to grab quickly. Two-bite brownies. (Most of the time I turn them into one bite brownie)
If you can’t manage your time and if you don’t have a certain level of organization, you won’t make it to the gym or eat healthy on a consistent basis. You can make it the odd time but it won’t be part of your routine. “Routine” is that french for “shit together”.
