🎉Holiday routine
* Expect your schedule to shift. Be flexible. Do your best to get back to your normal routine as soon as you can.
* Keep a schedule. Aim to eat every 3–4 hours, even on rest days.
* Breakfast (within two hours of waking)
* Mid-morning snack
Lunch
* Afternoon snack
* Dinner
* Optional evening snack
* Fuel well on rest days: your body still needs three meals and a couple of snacks.
* Aim for balanced plates with carbohydrates, protein, and colorful fruits or vegetables.
🎉Sleep
* Maintain a consistent sleep routine. Try to go to bed at the same time each night.
* If falling asleep is tough: limit caffeine, charge your phone outside the bedroom, and decompress with something calming before bed.
🎉Stress & triggers
* Check in with your stress levels. Holidays can increase or decrease your appetite.
* Have a plan if being home is stressful:
* Stick to regular meal and snack times
* Keep snacks nearby so you don’t get overly hungry
* Take short breaks (walk, stretch, breathe) if things feel overwhelming
🎉Hydration
* Stay hydrated, especially when traveling or when routines change.
* Aim for 2–3 liters of fluids per day.
* Add electrolytes on training days or when flying.
✨ These small habits can make a big difference in keeping you fueled, grounded, and maintain training throughout the holiday season.
