5 Healthy Tips for Your Super Bowl Party

Everyone is gearing up for Super Bowl 50! Whether you're a devoted fan, love the game or  just love to socialize during the game, we've got 5 simple tips to help you stay mindful and make healthier choices without missing a second of the action.

Bring something healthy and simple.

That way you have at least one healthier option to turn to during the party. H3 Fitness Coach, Chris Varano makes a low fat spinach dip with some Greek yogurt and vegetable soup mix and spinach. It's that simple and very yummy.

And if preparing something is a 'foul on the play' in your mind, H3 Registered Dietician Felicia Hackett suggests buying store bought hummus with pre-cut vegetable tray. Hummus is always a hit and it's always great to sneak in as many veggies as you can.

Be a Mindful Host at Half-Time

Make smaller portions of dips and put out smaller portions of chips while putting out bigger platters of fruits and vegetables.



Be sure to put water bottles next to the beer and other beverages so everyone sees there's water available. You can even hand out/offer a water bottle to every guest when they are getting settled. Our RD Felicia Hackett pulls out these healthy tricks to help guests make healthier decisions while still allowing them to enjoy a little indulgence.

Turn Commercial Breaks into Fit Breaks

To stay active without missing a play or a hilarious commercial, Fitness Coach David Chesworth chooses squat jumps as his go-to fitness move. From a seated position on their chairs/sofas they would stand up and clap their hands - those who want high impact could add a jump after they stand. They could do 10 squat jumps for each commercial that airs or do 10 every time their team scores.

We've given you the game plan and now, it's time to use it. Enjoy Super Bowl 50, everyone.
