Sunday is a day to prepare and get yourself ready for the week ahead. Preparation is key and as much as you can prepare yourself today for your week, the more on track you will stay on your program, no matter what that program is. Whether you are a competitor, on a lifestyle program or looking to lose a few extra pounds utilizing Sunday as your day to prepare is universal key component among everyone seeing fitness goals!

Today is our weekly preparation day, remember… Use today to do your shopping, prepare your meals and be sure that your house is loaded with all the healthy bites for the week. Getting things prepared is going to be Step ONE is your success for this upcoming week. Summer is right around the corner, can you believe it!! As mentioned in my Summer Trim Down Tips in my newsletter, BYOM-- BRING YOUR OWN MEALS and being prepared is one key tip to reaching your Summer Trim Down goals. --by the way, if you are not on my newsletter e-mail list, you must sign up for all the latest tips and to find out what is going on with me and ginaaliotti.com. With the come of a new season comes a great time to mentally and physically make some personal changes. Let’s change with the seasons and establish those goals we are aiming for.

As I prepare for my week ahead, I have cooked up a storm with all my Eat to Grow protein in Tupperware and Quinoa pre-made so all I have to do is scoop it out with my measuring cup or a big spoon. Whether you pre-make your meals and individually put them in containers, by meal, or simply have larger containers with your pre-made food ready to be grabbed on the go, prepare yourself!

On the training front, this weekend I switched my usual Sunday "fun day and off day" and got in my training today and rest day yesterday. Often, depending on your schedule you have to adjust things. Just as you are prepared for your week, you have to be prepared to go with the flow and adjust your schedule according to how you feel and things you have going on. Yesterday was a travel day for me so what does that mean... I took the day off to travel, with all my meals prepared and with me, by the way, and then used today as my day to get in an awesome circuit workout. updates on how Jess is doing, the workout and more…
