Good morning, Chrisie!

 

Here’s a problem that affects a LOT of people … a lack of energy!

 

Before the pandemic, the number of people who said they often felt tired was around 43% … and during the pandemic that number shot up to 60%.

 

In keeping with our “clean it up” theme this month, I thought it would be helpful to list some things you can do to cut out a few sneaky drains on your energy.

 

Because the truth is, many everyday habits can actually leave you feeling tired.

10 Things Draining Your Energy

 

Not getting enough exercise. Not moving your body can make you want to move even LESS! Making time for exercise can get your blood pumping, improve your endurance, and boost your energy.

 

Eating processed and refined carbs. These might give you a quick shot of energy thanks to the blood sugar rush … but when your body sends out insulin to remove the sugar, it can make your blood sugar level plummet – leaving you tired and drained.

 

Not getting enough quality sleep. I sent an email about sleep a couple of weeks ago, but bottom line: your body needs sleep to fully recover and recharge.

 

Food sensitivities. One side effect of eating foods that your body is sensitive to includes fatigue. If you think that you might have sensitivities, it’s worth checking with your doctor. Common culprits include gluten, dairy, corn, soy, and eggs.

 

Eating too LITTLE. Not getting enough fuel (i.e., food) can make you feel tired – and so can eating a poor-quality diet without enough nutrients.

 

Not getting enough protein. Studies show that eating protein boosts your metabolism, and scientists believe this may help prevent tiredness. 

 

Drinking too little water. Studies show that being even a little dehydrated can make it harder to stay focused and leave you feeling drained. 

 

Energy drinks (including coffee). Like refined carbs, these can send your energy up before crashing back down. Not only that but caffeine can take up to 8 hours to clear your system, making it harder to get a good night of sleep, adding to the energy drain.

 

Stress. Feeling constantly stressed can definitely deflate your energy, both mentally and emotionally. Just another reason it’s important to have (and follow!) a plan for managing stress. 

 

Being in a negative environment. It’s possible to “catch” the moods of the people around you, but being aware of it can help lower your susceptibility, as can finding things that make you feel positive!

Your Assignment 

Bottom line … move your body … eat healthy whole foods … drink your water … and surround yourself with a positive environment … and your energy should quickly return!

 

If it doesn’t, it’s worth mentioning to your doctor to see if you have an underlying issue.

 

At Savoy Fitness, we believe that your results are all connected – sleep, stress, nutrition, fitness, mindset, and more. 

 

Make it a great day!

 

Wishing you tons of positive energy and good vibes 

 

Committed to your Success,
