How to Build Your Big Sports Girl Routine (Without Burning Out)

You want to feel strong, energized, and in your Big Sports Girl era - but also not collapse into bed by 7 p.m. with no social battery.

Same, bestie. Here’s how to build your sporty routine without overdoing it. Think of Your Week Like a Season. Not every day needs to be a championship. Some days are for rest, some for training, and some for fun.

• 2–3 workouts/week: strength + cardio + mobility = a dream trio

• 1 walk/day: a 20-minute walk is a power move

• 1 recovery day: foam rolling, stretching, journaling

Fuel Like an Athlete, Not a Dieter. Your body needs energy to perform AND to be cute. Prioritize protein and carbs (yes, carbs!) Hydrate like you have a game later. Snack like a champ (bananas + almond butter anyone?) Dress the Part. If you feel good, you move good. Match your sets (extra points for tennis skirts), rock a claw clip or sweatband, make your water bottle an accessory!

Keep It Playful. Add fun challenges: try a sport you’ve never played, join a rec league, or go to a themed workout class. Remember: Rest Is Training Too. Burnout isn’t the vibe. Recovery is where the growth happens. Honor your energy. Adjust as needed. You don’t owe hustle to anyone.

You're not just working out. You're becoming the most confident version of yourself -one sweat session, stretch, and snack at a time.

Big Sports Girl energy, activated.
