High-Protein Breakfast Ideas After a Morning Workout
If you follow me on Instagram, you’ll see my near-daily early AM workouts. Every morning, rain or shine, I get up at 5 a.m. and go to the gym. It’s a moment of peace before the day gets busy and a way to ensure I sweat before anything else.
The truth is, I need two breakfasts those mornings—one at 7 a.m. and the other around 10 a.m. If one or both are not high enough in protein, I’m starving for the entire day. The hangry cycle doesn’t break till bedtime. I’ve compiled my favorite post-workout breakfasts that fuel me, and I hope they will fuel you, too.

Winning Wellness: What Olympians and Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders Can Teach Us About Health Goals
This summer, one of the biggest news stories is that the country’s top-tier athletes—Olympians to the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders—have second jobs. While there’s a story about their payment for their profession, that’s not where we’re going today. Instead, I want to focus on the duality of their lives to accomplish their dreams and take care of their health to the fullest extent.
We live in a world where we are told we can do both and have it all, but to do that, we have to do the work and put in the hours, consistency, and time to make it happen. That’s why taking charge of our health may feel like too much work, too much commitment, and never the right time. Becoming the CEO of our health and wellness is like having a second job! However, like a professional athlete, the daily hard work and dedication pay off when you win.
This post explores these parallels, offering insights and strategies to help you manage your health goals as diligently as an athlete trains. It proves that the pursuit of personal well-being is indeed akin to the dedication seen in professional sports. Hard work, but worth it for the gold medal, aka achieving YOUR goals!
