Spring Break is here, and you've either been super motivated to get that hot bikini bod, or you just haven't. Either way, you might be giving yourself a second chance for next break.
The gym? It's a nice concept.
But if you're like me, you just DON'T HAVE TIME.
There are still easy lifestyle changes you can make to stay healthy without ruining your entire schedule.
1. Water, water, water
Yes, I know it seems obvious. But did you know you should be drinking 11-15 cups of water a day? I always have a bottle on me to fill up and drink throughout the day.
*Bonus* Add fruits to mix it up a little!
2. Walk!
Driving everywhere is tempting but if it's walking distance, get that cardio in. The steps add up!
3. Watch your diet
University is a tough place because the dining halls are basically a medley of the unhealthiest types of food. Stop getting that cheesy pizza every night, and switch it up with some actual foods. They exist.
4. Get sleep
Especially when you have a to-do list the size of a dictionary, sleep can seem like a waste of time. I know I've definitely had nights where I push through just to get everything done. Not only is that extremely bad for your health, it's not fun to get through the day when you've gotten less than 3 hours of sleep. It's a simple thing that makes a difference!
5. Do small activities throughout the day
You don't have to go to the gym to get your physical activity in your schedule.
Commercial break? Do some jumping jacks.
Brushing your teeth? Squat it out.
Curling your hair? Perfect time for a wall sit!
6. Take your personal time
We all have our crazy days, where you are running around so much you forget to breathe.
No matter how much work you have, always remember to take a second to yourself and do something you enjoy. Mental health is everything!
