#20 (Fighting Fatigue)

When it comes to #training, #fatigue is the enemy. No matter how #motivated you are, sometimes the tired takes over & you’re left with no #energy. #Caffeine isn’t always the answer (wait what?!) so here are some tips on how to naturally boost energy.

You know those days where nothing seems to wake you up? You’re training from training, or work, or any of life’s other trials and tribulations. These little remedies are good for people who experience random bouts of fatigue. If you feel as though you’re chronically exhausted, it might be smart to take a look at some of your lifestyle factors: are you overstressed? Not getting enough sleep?

For those in a little funk, try the three tips below:
1. Beet Juice: Beets improve cardiovascular functioning, as they are packed with healthy nitrates and can help increase stamina substantially
2. Your favorite tunes: Did you know that when you jam out to your favorite songs, your blood vessels expand by 26%? Healthy pump ftw!
3. H20: this one may seem obvious, but less people than you think drink the daily recommended amount of water. Dehydration affects your focus, brain function, and energy levels. Drink up.

Slamming an energy drink may be tempting, but if you’re tired to begin with… get ready for that crash. Let us know how these natural remedies worked for you.
