some of the most important health & fitness tips I wish someone told me when I started out:

modify your moves. Don’t worry if you can’t squat down all the way or can’t run for too long, you can only get better from here!

I don’t care what your hyperactive fitness instructor tells you - drink your water and take a break if you need it. you are not a machine. don’t destroy your health trying to get fit

protein and carbs are your friends

don’t ask random blogs on tumblr serious health questions you could look up or ask a doctor

don’t try to match your instructor’s pace during a workout. It’s form, not speed. Do not compete with them. 10 good lunges > 20 sloppy ones

don’t have weights? Find something heavy - a textbook, water bottles, whatever works for you

IF YOU ARE HURT DO NOT WORK OUT

IF YOU ARE TIRED AND EXHAUSTED DO NOT WORK OUT

PUSHING YOURSELF TO “THE LIMIT” DOES NOT MEAN WORKING OUT UNTIL YOU’RE READY TO THROW UP

Always do a quick warm up and cool down

Treat yourself often

forget workout clothes. You don’t need Nikes and expensive yoga pants. An old tee shirt and some cheap gym shorts will do just fine

Stay hydrated

Trial and error. Success is a bumpy road

Do not compare your chapter one to someone else’s chapter 10

Fitspo posts and before & afters are great but remember you can be the same height & weight as someone and never look like them. You never know the full story behind that picture

Try not to measure your progress in strictly numbers

Calories do not reflect nutrition.

Peanut butter is higher in fat but are healthy fats

Fruits have natural sugar in them that your body needs DO NOT AVOID FRUITS

1200 calories is barely enough to survive

Please do not do just cardio alone

Quality over quantity. A 30 minute intense workout will always beat a half ass 2 hour elliptical workout

Try different things. You may like running, you may not. Maybe yoga, swimming, dance, hiking, etc. Try things out.

YOU WILL NOT BULK UP NO ONE ACCIDENTALLY BULKS UP

All you need is your body to work out. Don’t stress over gyms

Do it for YOU. Not the boys and the crop tops and the “stares”

Rest days are essential. Take as many as you need. Never skip a rest day, your body needs to heal

Losing weight does not guarantee happiness. It never does. Don’t put your other problems on hold to focus on your body, they’ll catch up with you ten fold later and it’s not fun

People are in such a rush to fall in love. We base our relationships off a physical connection rather than an emotional one. We force ourselves to like someone so we won’t be alone. We settle for those that don’t quite satisfy our wants and needs. Stop looking for love, let it find you. The best things in life are worth waiting for and love is definitely one of them. Sometimes it happens over night and sometimes it takes years but you have to have patience. Learn to love yourself so that you don’t feel like you need to be loved by someone else in order to feel complete.

BACK-TO-SCHOOL PRINTABLES

School is going to be starting soon, so I decided to make a bunch of printables to try to be more organised from the very first day. I don’t know about you, but every year (until now), on the first day of classes, I would write down everything that the teacher was saying on random pieces of paper I could get my hands on, which I would end up losing the moment I walked out of the classroom. This year, I decided to change that so I made class info printable. I also made a lab tracker because I always lose my labs and then the teacher always asks for them at the end of the year… So for this year, I made a lab tracker ahead of time. I also made an assignment and test tracker so that I can have a pretty good idea as to what my final mark will be. I made some vocab and formula sheets too to make studying them a bit easier. I made a schedule printable because the schedule that my school gives every year is pretty ugly and I end up losing it. I made a weekly review so that I can make sure that I looked over everything I learned that week instead of just forgetting about it. I also made a daily planner because why not. There are also different versions of every printable so you can choose which one you like best. Other printables. Tag me with #msprintables

Tumblr has taught me more about feminism, women rights, rape culture, slut shaming, etc, more than school ever had. And there is something wrong with that.

Self improvement

[veganewgirl]

“You’re vegan?! You don’t know what you’re missing out on”

1. High cholesterol

2. Lack of energy

3. Higher risk of cancer

4. Higher risk of dementia 

5. An uncontrollable impulse to shout “Baaaaccccooooon”

6. Not knowing where protein comes from

7. Dairy induced acne

8. Insincerely saying “I love animals”

9. Not giving a damn about the environment

10. A less happy sense of well-being from not doing the right thing

Yeah… Vegans know what they’re “missing out on”
