Suzy Mari of SuzyMari Fitness stopped by the Charles Matthew show to give us some tips on staying healthy, especially during the pandemic. However, her tips will undoubtedly be useful for maintaining our health post-pandemic as well. Below is some of the knowledge she provided when she joined Charles Matthew and our very own Jodi-Ann Campbell to discuss valuable health and fitness habits.
Food Schedule
Suzi Mari on Intermitting Fasting
Suzy Mari states your body should never be at a hunger stage; you should never feel hungry or starving because you’ll be putting your body in deficit mode. Because the next time you eat something, like a salad, your body will store it as fat. This is because your body has been forced to use fat as energy, and fat is dense. Once the fat has been burned off, it’s going to continue to restore, and therefore you will gain weight as soon as you start to eat.
Exercising
Suzy Mari recommends working out first thing in the morning because you are releasing endorphins. With those endorphins, your body is set up with productivity throughout the day. That way, when you eat throughout the day, your body will still be working it off. By the end of the night, you will most likely get a restful sleep. This is why it may not be a good idea to work out at night because you may end up wired, full energy and unable to sleep. Don’t forget to have a meal before the workout and a meal after the workout. This is to fuel your body for energy-burning and to replenish the body after the workout so that your muscles can grow and get strong.
Suzy Mari’s one simple exercise tip: Planks! It strengthens your core back and sides. You can do them standing up, sitting down, on the floor or however you wish because you can modify them for you. Try to do them first thing in the morning as it will give you energy, but start with a shorter time, like 10 seconds. Then work your up to 15 seconds, then 20 and so on.
