We sat down with Rob to ask him some questions about his success and consistency. Keep reading to hear more about what makes Rob a Zest Wellness Rockstar!
What were your fitness/wellness goals when you first started Zest Wellness?
I had done things like this so many times before, but "this time" I told myself this time would be different. So rather than setting a goal, I set out on a mission to get healthy in ways that I actually enjoyed. For example, swimming and pedal biking. The goal was to do it every single day, rain or shine.. and of course, eating better (limiting fast foods), and drinking lots and lots of water. I also consumed 3 to 4 ounces of apple cider vinegar a day.
What are some of your fitness/wellness goals right now?
Continue to exercise regularly - in fact, every day if possible.
What exercise has helped you hit your fitness/wellness goals?
Pedal biking - I really enjoy the freedom it provides, not to mention the hour away from my cell phone.
What tips or tricks would you give another Zest Wellness member trying to reach their fitness/wellness goals?
Take a deep breath, life is long and so is the journey toward your goals... I can tell you that no goal [fitness or otherwise] is ever met until the person is ready both mentally and physically to do so.
What is your daily step count and how do you ensure you reach it every day?
I don’t count steps... it’s distracting… I simply make sure I move every day.
What motivates you to stay on track with your health and fitness goals?
The fact that it makes me feel great! It’s nice to be able to buy clothes off the rack!
What is your favorite healthy snack?
Rice cakes
What is your favorite exercise?
Pedal biking
What is something that has surprised you on your wellness journey?
The number of meds I am no longer taking!
Congratulations on all your hard work Rob!
