My morning routine is pretty simple and pretty consistent. I am very much a morning person and literally cannot wait to get up and start my day! When I go to bed at night, all I think about is waking up to a nice cup of coffee and getting the day started. It's my favorite thing ever. If you have been a subscriber for a while, you may remember that I would always go to the gym first thing in the morning, but that kind of got shut down when the whole world shut down. However, I am back into my morning gym routine and am LOVING it. Anyways, hope you enjoy the video!
and good morning it is 4 45 a.m and we are at the gym because that's what crazy people
do this early and yeah i against all odds wanted to film this morning just so you see
exactly how tired i am now versus when i get out of the gym and then you'll know why we
get up so crazy early but right now i'm exhausted all right so as you can see there's a pretty
start difference from the way i looked before that class and the way i look now we are beat
but like i said you notice how tired it was before that workout and yeah it's only 5 50
but i feel so much better even though watch this 602 602 yeah even though that workout class was
extraordinarily hard it's good to get your butt kicked a little bit here and there now i'm ready
to start my day as you can see it is still dark outside so we are going to go run to the coffee
shop real quick get a nice iced coffee cool down because we don't have any coffee at home it's like
a little reward after a workout usually we don't treat ourselves to coffee because coffee does get
really expensive very much adds up like three dollars a day but you guys know that so yeah but
we still love to treat ourselves to coffee everyone does especially now i feel like we
earned it after that crazy workout class shout out joe he killed us joe's the man all right
one scoop oops because it's cold brew so you have to dilute it i don't want a ton of half
yeah it's super concentrated cold brew and i don't like to fill my whole entire coffee with
half and half so i diluted a little bit with water michael just likes a little bit i like
mine creamy so what's it to you comment below if you like your coffee creamy or not creamy
i didn't want to say consistency no yours is darker wait we have to cheers this video is
sponsored by stoggles as an interventional radiologist i wear stoggles pretty much every
single day and i've been looking for something like stoggles for a very long time these are
essentially stylish goggles that are protective goggles that you can wear for work i wear mine
during all my procedures that don't require x-rays mostly ct or ultrasound guided procedures where i
don't want bodily fluids splashed on my eyes or even when i'm just talking to patients because
sometimes you just need a little extra eye protection stoggles have clear side and top
shields that protect the eyes without blocking peripheral vision stoggles are z87 certified
safety glasses without actually looking like safety glasses it's basically just like ppe but
fashionable who wants to wear those big face shields where you can wear these sleek super
fresh stoggles the lenses are anti-fog blue light blocking impact resistant shatterproof and uv
blocking stoggles makes it easy to add prescription lenses with all the same lens features included
the best thing about stoggles is that they are super lightweight and comfy to wear i wear them
with a mask they don't fog up they don't slip down my big nose i wear them for 30 minutes hours at a
time during procedures when i'm scrubbed in and can't touch my face they don't move and they don't
fog up i literally wear these every day all my staff can attest for that in fact some of my staff
has been asking me where i got these and i may actually get them some pairs there are a bunch
of color options i went with clear but i also have blue and charcoal as well because you can never
have too many so do yourself a favor get some of these stoggles i promise you won't regret it i
literally wear them every day and i've said that a million times now but this is exactly what i've
been looking for for a very very long time luckily you can use my code to get 10 off use the code
chalini10 click the link to my description go check out stoggles you won't regret it now let's
get back to the video all right so the question is what scrub should i wear this is kind of
embarrassing how many fake scrubs i have in here it's probably like 50 but the question is
should i go bright today a little bit of bright or should i just go like dark gray what are we
feeling today should i wear this green which is the new surgical green by faves this color is
bomb or should i go with the hydro green by faves also obviously that's all i wear
or should i go with this color these are the decisions i usually make in the morning i
usually wear like a darker navy blue or dark gray charcoal or black but i might switch up today
feeling a little a little colorful all right so it is now about 7 a.m got ready chose the
i'm gonna wear today obviously i went with the surgical green option felt a little bright today
it's all good so basically what we did made coffee i showered got dressed and now i have about an
hour left and i will basically respond to like business emails social media type stuff sponsors
all that kind of stuff do this all before i go to work so that when i get to work i can only focus
on work and not have to focus on anything else outside of work because at work it can be super
busy sometimes and i don't have time for all this other stuff yeah i'm sure my practice doesn't want
me spending time at work doing all this stuff when i could be doing radiology stuff which makes
sense that's why they pay me also one thing i failed to mention was that the whole morning while
i'm kind of getting ready and stuff i listen to a podcast and for anybody who is a finance nerd like
me you may enjoy this it is the millennial money podcast which is basically just like four different
guys who i follow on youtube they kind of got together they're all in the same financial space
and they talk about you know stocks crypto what's going on in the financial world the markets all
that stuff so let me show you is the millennial money podcast in case you guys care i listen to
it on youtube so if you're interested free plug for them i'm doing it all right listen to some
podcasts it is now 7 45 i'm gonna go ahead and head to work now i just got a little tired that's
fine though because i'll probably just grab a coffee when i get to work because as an attending
i finally get free coffee anyways so we actually don't eat breakfast in the morning i used to
always eat breakfast first thing when i wake up i'd make myself some eggs and all this stuff
and i mentioned in my last video that don't really do that anymore because i don't really
see the point i feel like i didn't earn my breakfast when i all i do is just wake up so
i usually wait till like 10 or 11 and grab some breakfast probably just like a protein bar that's
low sugar low calorie low carbs or maybe some scrambled eggs or whatever so just something to
kind of tide me over until like one ish 130 when i eat lunch if i get to eat lunch it might be a
busy day today so i'm not sure i'll be able to eat lunch but i'm going to work now so some of my old
school followers may remember that this is the same backpack i've had on that doctor video i made
but i basically just bring my laptop to work bring a little bar and a little nut pack and then i'll
fill up my water bottle to take with me as well also that was my old is that my old thing yeah it
and if you haven't seen my doctor bag video i do a whole video on what i carry to work
every day it's only changed a little bit and i probably need to get a new bag but more on that
later all right so it's 10 a.m now oh wait no sorry 9 52 and i'm starving for some reason
probably because i worked out and it's time to eat protein bar aka my breakfast i haven't done
any cases yet but maybe i'll do one shortly basically all i've been doing is just uh reading
a lot of studies catching up on the list and uh that's pretty much it stock market open a little
bit ago watching that on the side making sure nothing crazy is happening because the market
was dropping yesterday i guess i'll just wait for the next procedure yes these glasses are
amazing and luckily they're sponsored in today's video so i just walked out of the hospital and
i looked down
and i'm wearing my procedure shoes home tonight because i forgot i put them on which isn't that
big a deal but you know i put these on because i did a biliary drain and then i left my nice
shoes at the hospital now i have to bring these shoes home let's just not tell andriana all right
so just got back from work wasn't too bad did a little biliary drain a little this little biopsy
little bone marrow biopsy a little ct guided procedure a little ultrasound guided procedure
and it went pretty well and the funny thing is actually i'm not that tired all things considered
now that i've started this whole 5 a.m workout routine i get tired about now it's about 4 45
but stay up a couple more hours get into that sleep at like 9 30 and honestly i have never
gotten better sleep than when i started working out in the morning i have more energy throughout
the day and then at night when i get really tired you are out i have trouble sleeping i wake up all
the time during the middle of night i toss and turn if i stay consistent and work out in the
morning i sleep like a baby at night never wake up and when my alarm goes off i'm just dead because
your whole body is tired from the workout in the morning and you finally get good sleep i'm telling
you if you have trouble sleeping try a little morning workout get started on that routine and
you won't regret it so on that note that pretty much concludes this day my 5 a.m morning routine
and a little day in the life and a little stoggles advertisement in the middle of it so hopefully
y'all enjoyed it let me know if you work out in the morning and you are a morning person as you
can see from the video i'm very much a morning person but even i have trouble waking up at 4 30
in the morning especially because we just didn't go to sleep on time the night before but a lot
of times when i wake up that early i try to get in bed by like 9 30 that's really the only way
that you can wake up and not feel completely exhausted it's easier said than done going to
bed on time is like the hardest thing ever for me and yeah life gets in the way sometimes but the
other thing i like about working out in the morning and having a workout class is that you
get penalized if you don't show up so i think at my gym it's 24 if you sign up for a class and
don't show up so that's pretty big incentive because i don't want to spend 24 as a no-show
just earn 24 plus if andrana doesn't show up too that's almost 50 we spend for no reason you need
a little liability like that and it helps you stay motivated because no matter how tired you are if
you don't have to pay $50 it's easy to just hit snooze and go back to sleep but if you do have
to pay $50 you'll at least think twice about it i promise so on that note hope you all enjoyed
this video as always smash that subscribe button on my instagram and tiktok if you're not ready
