1) Get Your Beauty Rest:

Might seem like a no-brainer but maintaining regular sleeping patterns is essential to maximizing your efficiency throughout the day. In order to rebuild your muscles, you need to let them rest and repair properly. Slap on that sleep mask!

2) Rev Your Metabolism:

Breakfast is essential to start your day off right. Kick start your metabolism and set the course for your day – smoothies, oatmeal and juices are a great way to amp up your diet. Need recipe ideas? Check out ours here!

3) Plot Your Day:

Failure to plan is planning to fail. Know your day’s schedule and make sure you know when you are fitting in your workout. You can crush your workout in only 8 minutes – no excuses!

4) Keep mobile:

Make an effort to get up out of your chair at work and move around. Give your body a chance to stretch and get your blood flowing in the middle of your day. A quick walk at lunch or on break is a great way to get in some movement and help you stay active before or after your workout.

5) Drink water:

Hydration is one of the most important parts of your entire day. Without proper hydration your muscles will tighten and so will your skin. You need to respect your body and give it the proper restoration it needs. Keep a full bottle near you at all times.

6) Make Commitments:

Make promisees to yourself that you won’t break. Nothing feels better than setting goals and achieving them. Make commitments to yourself to keep you motivated – no backing out!

7) Refuel Appropriately:

Without a proper diet you will never see your best results. The saying goes like this, “Abs are made in the kitchen”, and it’s important to remember that. The work you do with your OctaSlider™ needs to be supported by the foods you eat throughout your day. Don’t snack because you’re bored – snack to refuel your body and nourish your muscles.

8) Stretch It Out:

Mobility and flexibility is so important. Before and after your workouts, make sure you’re taking the time to stretch everything out. Even in the middle of your workday, make the time to loosen up and keep things moving.
