Paige loves outdoor exercise. “Go on walks or hikes somewhere with pretty scenery or find a place that’s peaceful where you can enjoy being active in the environment,” she told Eat This, Not That! .”When you surround yourself with sights you enjoy, it distracts from the fact that you’re working out.”
Paige understands the importance of eating as an athlete.”If I don’t eat enough it has the opposite effect on my body. I’m literally always hungry and always eating something healthy to fuel my body,” she told Eat This, Not That!
Paige indulges on occasion. “Whether you’re trying to lose weight, or just want to stay fit and healthy, I think it’s important to treat yourself in moderation,” she added to ETNT. “If I deprive myself of good treats then I’m not happy, and when I’m not happy it’s hard to stay positive. When I allow myself sweets in small amounts, it also prevents binge eating, which makes me feel sick afterward.”
“Don’t stress yourself out about numbers on the scale,” Paige explained to ETNT. Instead, she pays attention to other indicators.”Set goals, but understand muscle weighs more than fat so the number on the scale might even go up as you get more fit. To measure my success, I go by how my clothes fit.”
Paige tries to make healthier swaps to indulge her cravings without compromising her health. “I’ll substitute tofu for chicken when I’m cooking curry and trick myself into eating more veggies by adding spices. It helps big time,” she told ETNT.
Paige has found that the more she exercises, the more she loves it.”To keep things interesting, find a fun kickboxing class or another workout or class you enjoy,” she said. “Whether it’s weight lifting by yourself or a weekly Zumba class with your friend, it doesn’t matter. Just find something you like that keeps you active.”
Paige also makes sure to drink a lot of water. “Most people don’t drink the amount of water their bodies require,” she saids. “When you’re hydrated, everything works better and you feel better, too.” For more of Paige’s tips, head over to Eat This, Not That!
