Plan ahead and eat healthy no matter what the circumstances are. Gabe discusses a real-world example of how he’s eating healthy this week while on the road.

The Situation:

I am heading back to grad school. I have to travel to the school for a couple days of orientation starting on 5/21/2012, and will be staying overnight. I did not want to have to rely on gas stations and fast food to fuel my body, so I planned ahead and brought some healthy snacks and meals that will keep me on my path to six-pack glory.

The Plan:

I have built up a large supply of shaker cups over the years. I decided to put some of them to use. I filled 2 of them with my post workout supplements – just the powder. (I plan on working out in the evening after orientation on the first day, and in the morning before the second day of orientation.) In the Third shaker, I have one pre-workout supplement – Assault- just the powder. I also have my sample bag of C-4 Extreme that I will use before my second workout. These should cover my pre/post workout shakes.

For times in between class and other snack times, I am bringing the cliff builder protein bars, the canned chicken, and the green stuff in the ziplock bag (Shakeology), a healthy meal replacement shake.

The yellow bowl contains 1 cup oatmeal and 1 scoop protein. I will be eating this for breakfast on day 2.  I also am bringing the tub of protein as a back up…. never know when you will need it.

And that is how I will stay on track. I will be eating some meals at the school, and probably at a restaurant in the evening. I am not sure what they will be yet, but by bringing all of my supplies I know I will have at least 75% healthy meals and healthy snacks available to me.
