Ah, the infamous bathroom scale. 🙈

Taunting us every morning with it little wiggly pointer (or glowing digital display).😂

Will it go up?? Will it go down?? Why isn't it moving?!?!? We have all felt that frustration. Especially since we have been conditioned to look to those numbers as our mark of success or lack thereof. Thankfully, that can end now 🎉
Whatever your number is, it's just data. One tiny piece of the puzzle and it only tells a tiny part of the story. Let's talk about non-scale victories! Ways to chart your progress, no matter what your goal is, even when those pesky numbers won't budge. Here are some examples:

Better sleep
Clearer skin
Increased mental clarity
Clothes fitting better
Making better food choices
Hitting your protein goals
Consistent exercise
Lifting heavier weights
Better cardio endurance
Less joint pain
No joint pain
Migraines disappear
A desire to exercise
Craving healthy foods
Feeling more confident
Handling stress better
Etc, etc.

All of these won't show up on the scale, but they all indicate that what you are doing is working. Your body is responding. So, keep going. Stay consistent. Consistently wins, every time.💪

Sometimes, all it takes is a different perspective. 😉💪

The saying goes, "Abs are made in the kitchen." We agree with the concept. All the gym work in the world won't get you the results you want if you don't fuel correctly!
Try this high protein (48 grams per serving!), low-carb chicken salad to help you meet your macros. It's yummy, satisfying, and easy to prep and have on hand for quick meals.
High Protein Chicken Salad. 4 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast, cooked and shredded.
Chopped veggies, any kind you like to equal 1.5 cups. (Peppers, red onions, peas and corn is our favorite.)
Dressing:
2 cups plain nonfat greek yogurt
Juice from half a lemon (about 2 TBSP)
1 1/2 tsp dried dill w**d
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp black pepper

Mix all together in a large bowl and refrigerate for several hours before serving to allow flavors to blend.

Will keep for up to one week in the refrigerator.

Serving size: 1 cup. Macros: Protein 48g, Carbs 9g, Fat 5g, Calories 285

Let us know if you try it! 😊💪

We've tested this and we all agree. 😜😂💪

Ah, the age-old question.....

Which is better, cardio or weights (strength training)?🤔

Tricky question! The short answer is, both! 😂

What is best for you depends on your goals, so let's break this down a little.

Cardio, like walking, running, swimming, etc, burns more calories during the exercise and boosts heart breath.

Strength training, such as lifting weights, resistance bands, and body weight exercises, builds muscle and boosts the metabolism long-term.

If your goal is weight loss, cardio is key. It burns more calories while you're doing it. Adding weights is also beneficial because that muscle you build continues to burn calories long after you've completed your workout.

If you are working on body composition, strength training is paramount. That's how you'll build muscle. However, saying cardio will reduce your overall body fat percentage.

If you want to improve your long- term health, strength training is key! This is how you can maintain and even increase your bone density and muscle mass, both of which are huge indicators of overall health and wellness.
Once again, though, it's important to note that cardio can reduce stress levels and improve cardiovascular health.

If you were hoping we were going to say, you don't need cardio, we're sorry to disappoint you.🤣 The fact is, it really is best to do both, no matter what your goals are. Knowing specifically what each does for you can help you develop a routine that will give you success.

Trust us, we've tested it.😉💪

See you at the gym.💪😉

Ok, time to be real for a minute...

Every single one of us has experienced a setback at some point in life. If you haven't, just wait a little bit, it's coming.😜 This isn't doomsday talk, it's just reality. Anytime you make a goal and strive to reach it, things will happen along the way that will seem to slow your progress. If this has happened to you, congratulations! You're normal!😂

On a fitness journey, many things can happen that will feel like a setback. Sickness and you miss a week at the gym. An injury and now you can't do the same routines. A schedule change and suddenly food prep is hard to squeeze in. A family situation and you can't focus on your goals like you used to. I'm sure there is more, but you get the idea.

This is where having long-term goals and a good perspective can help. Long-term goals usually have a little wiggle room and allow for life's curve balls. A proper perspective that realizes that consistency trumps perfection every time can make all the difference. Remember, sometimes consistency means doing what you can in the moment. Maybe not everything you would like to do, but what is possible right now.

In addition, remember that well-established habits are harder to derail. We default to what we know. So, while things are going well, stay consistent! Continue to build those strong habits that will carry you through when things aren't perfect.

Today, take a breath, do what you can with what you have, and carry on!! 💪

It's all about perspective. 💪

Self-care. It's become a common word, but what does it mean, and.....is it selfish?😬🤔

First, just because "self-care" and "selfish" start with the same word, they have absolutely NOTHING in common!! 😉

You are the only YOU you have!! You are the only YOU there is, so yes, take care of YOU!! We at RipGen are big fans of self-care. 🎉💪

You can practice physical self-care by eating healthy, nourishing food. Lifting weights, strength training, cardio, stretching, yoga, and hitting the trails help fill your physical care cup.

Mental self-care is important, too! Find a hobby like reading, word puzzles, or learn something new, like a foreign language or take a cooking class. Your brain needs new challenges to stay fresh.🧠😁

While you're at it, don't neglect your emotional health! Acknowledging and processing our emotions is a skill we could all use more practice with. Do things that bring you joy and make it a goal to laugh daily!😄

To sum up: prioritize yourself. Set boundaries, don't be afraid to say no. After you've filled your cup, you'll have the energy you need to take care of all the things.😊💪

Raise your hand if you've used the gym as a form of therapy!!👋🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️

We have. It works!! 💪

So...... how's it going?? 😁

It's dreary, the world is crazy, and the dog got sick again, right?

Does your brain feel like you have about 50 tabs open??😂🤦‍♀️

Here's a tip: move. 💪

Exercise has a tremendous impact on your mental health. Physical activity relieves tension in the body, which in turn relaxes the mind! Studies show that just 20 minutes of moderate activity boosts the levels of dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin in the brain. These hormones help improve concentration and focus, relieve tension and stress, and boost mental energy.

Our personal experience is that we have a more positive outlook and are able to think clearer after a good workout.

Science backs it, real life experience confirms it. Give it a try and see if you get the same enormous sense of well-being!!😊🎉💪
