10 Healthy Eating Tips for Executives on the Go

Do Airport terminals feel like your home away from home?

Are you constantly on the move in your day?

Do you see more client offices than your own?

No doubt with frequent travel and a dynamic schedule you’ve found it hard to keep a good training and nutrition routine.

You’re not alone.

Many of our clients were stuck in the same cycle… until we gave them our system for healthy eating on the go.

Protein bars.

The highest priority in all quality nutrition programs is hitting daily protein targets. Protein bars are temperature proof, don’t expire and are easy to find. Keep 5+ on you for snacking when you’re hungry

Hydrate with electrolytes

Many hunger cravings are the result of being dehydrated. Stay hydrated and watch your hunger signals subside.

Choose Japanese

In general, of all the cuisines which load up hidden calories, Japanese food is the only non-offender. What you see is what you get. No heavy oils or added sugar. Just stay away from too much mayo and fried options.

Beef jerky

Again we’re prioritising having protein and we need it to be convenient. There aren’t many better and more convenient choices than dried beef.

Protein shakes…

by the end of these tips you’ll be an Ezy-mart regular. Find the protein brand that agrees with your stomach and has the highest grams of protein.

Lots of fruit

Don’t believe the lie that fruit is full of sugar and is therefore bad for you. Fruit is loaded with essential vitamins and fibre… keep a few pieces on you for easy snacking and curbing appetite.

Don’t fast.

The temptation is always to not eat when you’re busy. Long unpredictable fasts are bad as they prevent the body from having the fuel to build muscle, train intensely and lose fat efficiently.

Limit caffeine to mornings only

Over consuming coffee or energy drinks is an easy way to be over stimulated and kill appetite… not good again for the reasons above and it crushes your sleep.

Don’t follow a food-restrictive diet.

When your schedule is busy, you don’t want to make eating healthy harder than it needs to be. Vegan, Keto, Paelo, Carnivore etc. make food choices more limited and therefore much harder to get the body composition result you’re after.

Be accountable to someone

All this is easy to get off track with if you’re the only person who knows. Get someone else involved so you have to report your adherence.

Rather than wait for a time when your schedule is quieter…Be proactive and practise a system that allows you to eat well no matter what your schedule looks like.
