1. Stay hydrated
Maintaining our hydration levels is so important for optimum health and one we seem to neglect when we drift from meeting to meeting and car trip to car trip. What makes matters worse is that we often meet for ‘coffee and tea’. Rarely would we arrange a meeting over a “glass of water or two”. By mid afternoon we are in the pits of low energy, fatigue and brain farts. Time to reach for the water. Or you can be proactive. Invest in some stainless steel flasks and fill them up at the start of the day with your target hydration intake. Keep a steady flow through the day of CLEAN, BOTTLED OR FILTERED WATER. No tap water please. Unless you like a hefty dose of fluoride.
2. Make time for breakfast
Breakfast is a crucial meal and one I have written about extensively over at the blog. In a nutshell it will alleviate stress particularly if you eat something prior to 10am. It will also give you the building blocks to ensure that you function at optimum health and fitness for the next 12 hours. What is the best breakfast? One that consists of protein (meat, fish, eggs 3-5 for both males and females), and vegetables. If you are very active you can throw in a serving of fruit. Note there are no cereals. That is unless you want to be reaching for the scone and further sugar crashes around mid morning. This breakfast of champions will have you tearing through the day with the vigour of a champion. Make time for it.
3. Make your Hotel Healthy Friendly
Most hotels are not healthy friendly. That is why I insist on a fridge in my room. Out go the Kit-Kats and Toffee Crisp and in go foods from a quick shop at the local supermarket. Things like – tinned salmon, hard boiled eggs, bags of ready washed salad, berries, cold cuts of meat, avocado and some water.
4. Use Greens Powders
These powdered vegetables are a great source of real food in a flash. Simply drop a teaspoon or two into a litre of water and your body will thank you for it. They are quick and will give you an instant energy boost. They are also great for detoxification and ensuring you reach your five a day in a nano-second.
5. Use Leftovers in Cool Boxes
If you are out on the road then a cool box is a great addition to the boot of your car. Take some leftovers from dinner the night before. So, instead of some dead, light heated deli sandwich you are getting the delighted of your cooking the following day.
6. Take a Walk
Inactivity is the name of the day when you are on the road a lot and travelling. Get out for a short walk, park the car as far away from the entrance as you can, take the stairs (and do them quickly!) just to get your body pump moving. If you stagnate so does your mind. Keep active!
7. Choose Protein and Veggies – Skip the Carbs at meal time
If you are out and about, then choose meats, fish and vegetables and leave the carbohydrates out of this meal. No to rice, pasta, potatoes and bread and yes to extra helping of fish, meat and a bumper serving of veggies. Your activity levels don’t warrant the energy foods and you need to keep your blood sugar levels stable as you move through the day for more ‘real energy’.
8. Leave the Alcohol
Alcohol is a sugar and carries with it the extra level of toxicity to deal with. A Soda and fresh lime is a) a lot healthier for you and b) looks like a gin and tonic so sneaky b**tard tactics work. However, if you are insisting then take a drink and then the next 
round is water. Also, before you hit the hay take a double whammy of greens powders and some Alkalising Salts by PRP Performance. No hangover.
9. Source Local Good Food Eateries
If you are in the area for a long time or an extended time then get on Google and have a look for some healthy places to eat.
10. Find the Local Gym
Likewise get to the gym in the morning and get the body moving! If you are unsure of what to do find a staff member or we can sort out a programme for you based off what equipment you have available.
