    Snack Smarter This Summer with This Protein-Packed Treat

It’s also perfect for busy days, post-workout cravings, or when you just want something fun in the freezer! High-Protein Frozen Yogurt Bark (You’ll want to screenshot this.) Ingredients: 1 to 1½ cups plain Greek yogurt (or a dairy-free alternative) ½ scoop vanilla or berry protein powder (your favorite kind works!) 1–2 ....

You’ve got goals — whether it’s feeling energized, less stress, more balanced in your gut, or just feeling like yourself again.

    Los Gatos Personal Trainers Share Why Your Brain Fog Might Be a Body Issue

    Ever walk into a room and forget why you’re there? Or read the same sentence 3 times and still don’t know what it said? Or maybe you feel distracted, foggy—or just not like yourself ?

    You’re lying in bed at night… and your eyes should be closed. But your brain’s rehearsing tomorrow’s to-do list, replaying that weird conversation, and contemplating whether magnesium actually helps you sleep. Meanwhile, your body’s like: “Let’s run a full diagnostic on every worst-case scenario we’ve ever imagined.” Yeah. That. And here’s the interesting part: It might not be a “sleep” problem at all. It might just be: a nervous system problem, a gut problem, a stress problem, or a you’ve-been-in-go-mode-for-too-long problem. Most people don’t realize ....
