Your Ultimate Vacation Recovery Plan

You went on an amazing vacation, explored new places, and now you’re back. You indulged in delicious food and drinks, relaxed, and maybe ate a bit too much. Now, it’s time to get back on track.

Waking up on Monday morning after a week of indulgence, you might find yourself feeling bloated, achy, and noticing that your clothes are a bit tighter. Sound familiar?

Here’s a five-step plan to help you recover from your vacation and realign with your fitness goals:

Step One: Refocus

Your vacation is over, and it’s time to move on. Yes, you enjoyed foods you usually avoid and drank more than you should have, but now it’s time to refocus.

Draw a line in the sand and commit to stopping the indulgent eating now that you’re back home. Remember, if you’re serious about your fitness goals, your vacation was an exception, not the norm. Don’t dwell on the past; instead, get back on track with renewed focus.

Step Two: Hydrate

Traveling often leads to dehydration and water retention. The first step in restoring your body’s balance is to rehydrate.

Make it a priority to drink plenty of water during your first few days back home. Start your day with a tall glass of water and keep a water bottle with you to sip throughout the day. Avoid artificial sweeteners or stimulants in your water; instead, enhance the flavor with slices of fresh fruit, herbs, or vegetables.

Step Three: Cleanse

Be mindful of what you eat in your first few days home. Stick to whole, real foods like fruits, vegetables, and lean meats to help restore balance and curb cravings.

Avoid packaged foods, including snacks, processed meats, dairy, baked goods, and alcohol. Opt for nutritious recipes like a Quick Chicken Stir Fry to enjoy wholesome, satisfying meals.

Step Four: Rest

Even relaxing vacations can leave you feeling exhausted. Prioritize catching up on sleep in the next few days.

Lack of sleep can lead to poor eating choices and make it harder to return to your workout routine. Aim for a full 8 hours of sleep each night to recharge your body and mind.

Step Five: Exercise

It’s time to sweat out those vacation indulgences. Put on your favorite workout gear and get moving. Start your first workout slowly, taking time to warm up and stretch your muscles before diving into a solid 30-minute routine.
