There is a saying, that ‘if you fail to plan, you plan to fail,’ and there are few areas of life where that is truer than when it comes to sticking to a nutritional strategy. Speaking from firsthand experience, if I do not have a plan in place when it comes to my dietary strategy, the likelihood of me failing is very strong.
One of the best ‘tools’ that I have acquired during my modern fitness journey is an Igloo-brand ‘Little Playmate’ mini cooler. I bought it used, and it has been super clutch in recent years. It is something that I recommend others consider incorporating into their own nutrition strategies.
By having a mini cooler, you can make sure that you have everything you need to stay on track when you are away from your kitchen for long periods of time. From baked, skinless chicken breasts to veggies to low-calorie beverages, I always make sure to have my mini cooler packed when I am going on a vacation or to the river or some other activity. Below is an embedded video of what I am talking about via the Older Muscles YouTube channel:
