💪Insurance Agents can Get In Shape Too! (SAMPLE WORKOUT ROUTINE AT THE BOTTOM)
If you are an insurance agent trying to get in shape, this is for you!!
There are a few basic habits that you want to develop that will allow you to have the body you want, despite your crazy and erratic schedule as an insurance agent.
Here are the steps!
1.) Workout early in the morning! It can be hard to muster up the energy to be at the game early on, but I promise this is essential to your fitness level and will actually give you more energy for your sales during the day! I notice a dramatically positive difference in my day if I work out early in the morning.
A lot of people take pre-workout drinks before a workout, and taking these at night will lead to restless sleep. There is no arguing that a huge dose of caffeine and stimulants at night will impact your sleep schedule.
This step goes hand-in-hand with getting a good amount of sleep because to wake up early and feel rested you will have to go to bed earlier! If you are committed to your fitness, you will make this a priority.
2.) Stay on top of your eating schedule. You don’t need to eat 6-8 meals per day like most fitness gurus preach. However, I would make sure to not eat any less than 4 meals per day. If you don’t want to spend all Sunday meal-prepping, get a membership to Costco or BJ’s and stock up on the pre-made foods they have. It makes my meal prepping WAY easier. Just keep an eye on the sodium level of the food you buy. Make sure to eat plenty of fresh fruits and veggies as well.
3.) Stay hydrated! Drink at LEAST 1 gallon per day. I would recommend drinking 1.5-2 gallons of water per day. The trick to this is drinking 1 liter of water immediately upon waking. It gives you a HUGE energy rush and feels great! You’d be surprise at how much sharper your mind operates when you’re fully hydrated.
4.) Stick to a consistent, basic lifting routine and focus on progressing every week. 3-day per week weightlifting routines are great for anyone to make progress on. A sample routine is this:
Monday:
Incline Dumbbell Press: 3 Sets of 8 reps
Barbell Shoulder Press : 3 sets of 10 reps
Tricep cable extensions: 2 sets of 20 reps
Wednesday:
Deadlifts 1 set of 8 reps
Chest Supported Rows 3 sets of 6-8 reps
Seated DB Curls 2 sets of 20 reps
Ab Machine, 3 sets to failure
Friday:
Squats 3 sets of 8 reps
Romanian Deadlifts 2 sets of 12 reps
Calf Raises 2 sets of 15 reps “Building a sales team? Reach out for guidance! Email me at justin@justinsuranceco.com to set up a consultation!”
