Your Routine Called—It’s Ready for a Comeback

Summer’s wrapping up.

School drop-offs are back, sports schedules are filling the calendar, and those long, unstructured days are giving way to something that looks like… order.

It’s not about things “slowing down”—they won’t. But it’s the perfect time to reset, take a breath, and start building back the habits that keep you feeling your best.

Maybe the past few months looked like:

  • Skipping workouts because the kids were home.

  • Living on road-trip snacks or concession stand dinners.

  • Telling yourself you’d “get back on track” when things settled down.

As we know, life rarely settles. But you can take back control of your days by stacking the things that make you feel strong, clear-headed, and ready for whatever’s on your plate.

Here’s your Back-to-Routine Checklist:

1️⃣ Schedule your workouts. Don’t wait to “fit them in”—protect that time like any other important meeting.


2️⃣ Dial in your sleep. Aim for 6–8 hours and keep a consistent bedtime


3️⃣ Hydrate like it’s your job. Start the day with water, keep a bottle nearby, and add electrolytes if you’re training hard.


4️⃣ Hit your protein goal. Whether you track macros or keep it simple, prioritize protein at every meal to support energy and recovery.


5️⃣ Prep your meals. Take time each week to plan, shop, and prep healthy options so you’re not stuck making decisions when you’re already hungry and tired.


6️⃣ Move every day. Not every session needs to be intense—walk, stretch, or do mobility work to keep your body feeling good.


7️⃣ Recover on purpose. Sauna, cold plunge, foam rolling—whatever keeps you moving well, make it part of the plan.

This isn’t just “back to school” season—it’s a fresh start for you, too. Lock in the habits now, and you’ll ride that momentum straight through the end of the year feeling stronger, more energized, and in control of your days.
