LifeMinute Podcast: Health and Wellness

It’s 2024, and with that comes a newfound sense of optimism and hope for what we all want to achieve in the months to come. Let’s face it—we all had a busy holiday season and are feeling the effects of low energy. Exercise and a great workout can boost one’s energy and mood, improve sleep, and even reduce the risk of anxiety and depression. As we start to put those New Year’s resolutions into action, it’s more important than ever to prioritize your physical and mental well-being, and part of that is making time for fitness. With a fresh New Year officially underway, Planet Fitness’ National Lead Trainer Teddy Savage joins us to share tips and tricks on kickstarting a fitness routine in 2024 and how we can all find that Big Fitness Energy in the New Year and beyond. Planet Fitness also just announced that they are partnering with three-time Grammy award-winning artist, entrepreneur, philanthropist, and health advocate Megan Thee Stallion to marry music and fitness in a fun and unique way. Now through Friday, January 12, join for $0.24 down, then $10 a month, with no commitment. Visit PlanetFitness.com to check out your nearest location.

One in eight women is affected by breast cancer, including Giuliana Rancic. As a survivor, it’s immensely important to her to support others in finding the strength to fight and work to find a cure. In her 12th year cancer-free, she’s proudly teamed up with Avocados From Mexico for the Avocados From Mexico Cure Bowl, the annual American college football bowl game benefitting breast cancer research. Since avocados are a naturally nutrient-rich superfood and an essential part of a healthy routine and lifestyle, it’s a perfect partnership. We caught up with Rancic to tell us all about it, how she’s going to be at the game to rally with other survivors, and, of course, how she incorporates this healthy fruit and other healthy regimens into her life every single day. Follow along on social @avocadosfrommexico and get in the conversation using #SuperGoodRally, and go to avocadosfrommexico.com for recipes and tips.
