Listen…

I love the Finals as much as the next person. 🏀

But after the Conference Finals, some of my clients were already coming into appointments exhausted talking’ about:

“Well you know… the playoffs.”

Friend.

The playoffs are not supposed to take YOU out too.

As a Dietitian who cares deeply about quality of life, energy, recovery, mood, movement, cravings, and sleep, I need y’all to understand something:

Sleep is not a luxury.

It is part of your performance strategy too.

Research continues to show that inadequate sleep can increase cravings, appetite, and desire for highly palatable foods while also affecting recovery and energy levels.

So yes…
you absolutely can:

🏀 Watch the game
🏀 Airfry the wings
🏀 Enjoy the snacks
🏀 Have fun with your people

AND still support your body at the same time.

This is your reminder to:

✔️ Hydrate
✔️ Eat protein before tipoff
✔️ Go to bed after the game
✔️ Stop arguing online at 12:48 AM 😂

Because unlike the players…most of us still have work, meetings, kids, gym goals, and responsibilities in the morning.

Alright yall. I’mwatching you.



Who are you rooting for?

said:

“You’re speaking at the conference ”

…and then announced MORRIS CHESTNUT as the keynote. 😭😂

So now my “Fuel the Run. Fuel Your Life.” session has become very immersive because baby… I am TRAINING.

Hydration. Fiber. Protein. Recovery. Cardio. Prayer.
Everything counts now. 😮‍💨🏃🏾‍♀️ Let me get my ass up.

Richmond, see y’all in September.
