This episode is sponsored by The Colorful Geek and Jordandene.   First, we want to announce a GeekGirlStrong x Jordandene collaboration! Geek Girl Power shirts are now for sale at both geekgirlstrong.com and jordandene.com.   If you’re interested in leveling up your health and wellness with Robyn and you don’t live in NYC, she has online options as well!   Being fit and being a nerd have not always appeared to align. We’ve all seen the movies where the nerdy kid with big glasses sits on the bleachers during P.E. class or gets picked last or gets hit right in the face during every dodgeball game. Thankfully, we’re moving past those stereotypes, and Robyn is here to help.   Robyn’s tip for taking a first step into leveling up your health: walk more! Take the stairs instead of the escalator, get off one subway stop earlier, park a little farther away. Some creative ways to get more walking in are also to go on a walking date, walk during phone calls, try out a walking meeting, or take a coffee date to go to get some extra steps in.   Another leveling-up tip is to try to eat a vegetable with every meal. If you can, choose one that isn’t full of water (that would cook down into nothing if you put it over heat). Hearty veggies mean more energy!   Two big tips for being healthier during conventions are to set a reminder on your phone to drink more water and to try to eat a real breakfast in the morning.   One of my favorite ways Robyn combines geekiness with physical activity is Twitch workouts! (For examples, check out #TwitchWorkout on Instagram.) It works kind of like a drinking game: pick a twitch stream to watch, set rules for yourself, and play along either on your own or with a friend or partner. You’ll get your gaming time in while also burning calories!   For more information about leveling up your health and wellness, check out geekgirlstrong.com.   If you enjoy The Sartorial Geek and want to spend more time with us, you can join our new nerdy hangout: https://sartorialgeek.mn.co/share/l821YRkDHUuvKdL_?utm_source=manual   You can also leave us a review, subscribe to our show, and check out our Patreon at patreon.com/sartorialgeek.   Stay nerdy.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/sartorial-geek.
