Bridget Bites : What is your diet and workout?

Q :

Hi Bridget! Congratulations on making the VS show - all your amazing hardwork has paid off, so proud of a fellow Perth girl making it like you have. Would you post about your weekly workout routine and diet ? Any help from such a goddess like you...

A :

I get a huge amount of questions like this, asking for my weekly/daily routine and I find them very hard to answer. No two days are the same, and what works for me may not work for the next person… However here are some guidelines that I follow, and I find them to be effective for me!

---

1. Leave 12 hours between dinner and breakfast. It helps to make sure you have digested everything from the night before and gives your digestion a little break

2. Aim for at least 7 hours of sleep a night (I average around 9/10)

3. Start your day with a plant-based protein shake (I love Vega One)

4. Snack on raw fruits and vegetables only. And try not to snack at all. My go to is always cherry tomatoes, I always carry them on me!

5. Have one day a week where you relax a little on your diet. These are not cheat meals – I do not subscribe to the cheat meal concept and lifestyle. But give yourself a little break every now and again to stay sane, eat that burger!

6. Find a workout that gives you maximum gains for the least amount of energy. This is a new one for me – I used to grind cardio for hours, never see a difference and feel awful all the time. Once I shifted to resistance training I felt better, looked better and had so much more time and energy!

7. Find a workout that is fun. I hate gyms, I hate workout machines, and I hate plyometric moves. So I find boxing, dancing and running outside to be the best for me. They make me keep coming back!

I hope this helps!

 

Peace and love,

Bridget
