I swear every year goes quicker and quicker, and I think I say that every year too. It’s December! Wow! This is the time of year where people start to “wind down” after a big year, but it can also be a little trap where we wind down too much and can end up falling out of our structure (our structure being - training, nutrition, recovery). Don’t get me wrong, everyone deserves a break, or to back off for a while, it’s the festive season. But, we can’t loosen the reigns at the expense of falling too far off routine, and find ourselves out of shape and a few kilograms heavier then we should be. If you stay 70-80% adherent to your nutrition & still keep training a couple of times per week, this will be enough to maintain without heavy consequences. Results are built on consistency. Don’t let the Christmas buzz steal your consistency. Who keeps their normal routine through Christmas 🎅🏻
