While you sleep, your brain activates the glymphatic system, which clears out waste that builds up during the day.
This process is far less active when youβre awake β which is why good sleep is essential for mood, focus, and mental health.
Sleep isnβt downtime.
Itβs maintenance.
Your body uses more energy staying upright than lying down.
Posture and small movements all add up over the day.
Little things count.

Salt can make you hold onto water, which can move the scales short term β but it doesnβt create body fat.
Fat gain only happens when you consistently eat more calories than you burn.
The scale reacts to salt.
Body fat reacts to calories.
Stretching helps you feel looser straight away β even before flexibility changes.
Comfort improves first. Movement feels easier.
Small habit. Nice payoff.

In the early days of football, boots with studs were banned in some places because they were considered dangerous and unsporting.
Players often wore heavy work boots, and adding studs was seen as a safety risk.
Now theyβre essential.
Back then, they were controversial.
Your brain can trigger the same stress response from imagined threats as it does from real ones.
Heart rate rises, stress hormones increase, and muscles tense β even when nothing physical is happening.
Thatβs why overthinking feels exhausting.
Cooking vegetables doesnβt always destroy nutrients.
In some cases, heat breaks down plant cell walls and makes nutrients like beta-carotene and lycopene easier for your body to absorb.
Raw isnβt always better.
Sometimes cooked gives you more.
You donβt need more hours in bed.
Regular exercise helps you fall asleep quicker and improves sleep quality.
Move better. Sleep better.

You donβt need a full workout to feel better.
A short walk can lift your mood and reduce stress in minutes.
Small steps. Real impact.

Training doesnβt build muscle on its own β it starts the process.
Muscle repair and growth happen after exercise, during rest and sleep, when the body repairs microscopic damage.
Train smart.
Recover properly.
When starchy foods like rice, pasta, or potatoes are cooked and then cooled, some of the starch turns into resistant starch.
Resistant starch isnβt fully digested, so your body absorbs slightly fewer calories and it feeds your gut bacteria instead.
Same food.
Different effect.
Not getting enough sleep makes weight loss harder.
Lack of sleep raises ghrelin (the hunger hormone) and lowers leptin (the hormone that helps you feel full), leading to more hunger and stronger cravings.
Sleep isnβt a luxury.
Itβs part of the plan.
βHealthyβ doesnβt automatically mean low-calorie.
When food looks healthy, we often serve more and underestimate how much weβve eaten.
Nothing wrong with it β just keep an eye on portions.

Regular exercise improves how efficiently your body uses fat for fuel β even outside of training.
Itβs not about one session.
Itβs about what you do repeatedly.

Most sprints in football last just 2β4 seconds.
Closing down, breaking away, pressing, reacting β those brief bursts decide games.
Itβs not about how long you run.
Itβs about how often you can go again.
During a 90-minute match, footballers can lose up to 3 litres of fluid through sweat β even in cool conditions.
Thatβs why hydration in football is planned, measured, and individual.
Itβs performance, not just fitness.
Even when youβre doing nothing, your body is working.
Energy is constantly used to maintain body temperature and basic

Rest isnβt wasted time.
Too little recovery reduces power, speed, and quality of movement β even if you feel βokayβ.
Recover well. Perform better.

Peanuts arenβt nuts at all.
They grow underground and belong to the legume family β the same group as beans and lentils.
The name stuck.
The biology didnβt.
