Hey Fit Bae,
Kids or not, back to school time effects EVERYBODY. Traffic is a bit thicker, schedules have to be rearranged and time management is of the upmost importance if you plan on being on point with your fitness routine.
I know first hand the challenges of juggling this time of year and workouts, so here are 8 tips to keep your fitness routine on track:
-
Early Bird Wins: Rise with the sun – sneak in a workout before the morning rush. You'll be amazed at the energy boost and its the best way to knock it off your to-do list.
-
Lunch Break Hustle: Swap lunch prep for a quick HIIT session. You'll return to your desk like a boss, with endorphins to spare. You gotta eat though, so if you have a short time period for lunch; eat then go for a quick 10 minute walk.

Tag-Team Fitness: Got kids? Get them involved! Turn workouts into a family dance party or mini boot camp.
