MODESTO, Calif., Jan. 21, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- With award season in full swing, TV host Maria Menounos is focused on balancing her busy schedule while staying healthy and fit. To share tips and tricks for getting red-carpet ready for those big and little events in everyone's lives, Maria has teamed up with a cast of fitness, nutrition and cooking experts to form the California Almonds Life Squad. To learn more about Maria's secrets for maintaining a healthy lifestyle, along with her favorite energizing on-the-go snacks like almonds and workouts for limited time, visit Almonds.com/Life-Squad.
Maria may be best known as an E! Entertainment TV host, but before her days in Hollywood, she struggled with her own health issues including gaining weight. She turned to manageable tactics to lose the weight for good, which she shares in her second best-selling book, "The EveryGirl's Guide to Diet and Fitness." Part of her healthy routine includes daily smart snacking: "I am always on the go with my work and can sometimes go awhile without a meal," says Maria. "To prevent crashing, I snack on a handful of almonds to tide me over, and keep me fueled and satisfied."
Joining Maria on the Life Squad is a group chosen for their ability to help people live well and stay energized throughout the year. Registered Dietitian Kate Geagan, celebrity personal trainer Ashley Borden, chef and culinary expert Candice Kumai and Canadian food expert and Registered Dietitian Abbey Sharp will offer advice in the coming months for improving everyday life, including:
- Making the world your gym
- Quick breakfast ideas to power busy mornings
- Snacking solutions for travel
- Nutritious recipes for gatherings
- Snacks for every day on the go
The Life Squad's solutions to common problems are applicable to everyone, regardless of time restraints or limited access to a gym. Even with Maria's busy schedule, she still finds time for physical activity: "I usually do not have much time to work out, so I make my life my gym. I turn daily activities into exercising like having 'walking meetings.' I always say the key is to try to keep moving somehow several times throughout the day, whatever you're doing."
