Movement is a huge part of Alex Silver-Fagan‘s daily routine. The Nike Master Trainer and fitness instructor usually spends her days training private clients and teaching live yoga, cardio, and strength-training classes on the MIRROR — not to mention completing her own personal workouts.
Of course, that was Alex’s prepandemic routine. These days, she’s staying home instead of training her clients in person. She’s also not walking the five or so miles she normally logs just by getting from appointment to appointment in New York City. “Without this constant movement, I’ve had to take a few more breaks throughout the day to clear my head and regain energy,” Alex said.
While it’s not ideal, staying home has given Alex some extra time to hone in on what she needs to feel like her best, thriving self. Here’s how she keeps her energy levels up all day long — without reaching for a second or third cup of coffee.
