Of course, you can also find the team element outside the gym. For Harmon, it’s the sociability of his workmates that keeps him on his toes. “I love my drive to work, looking forward to getting there,” he told CBS Watch! magazine in 2010. “It’s a friendly place where we’re challenged and people are still doing the work and are excited. No one is phoning it in.” CLUE: ut Burnout Worko A DIRTY COFFEE CUP WHAT IT MEANS: Someone needed an energy boost. Have you ever watched a little kid run in circles for hours and expressed with jealousy, “I wish I had that much energy”? As we age, energy levels may drop a bit, and many people will turn to a grande mochaccino to give them a morning boost. On NCIS, Gibbs has a bit of a java addiction. But off-screen, Harmon doesn’t follow suit. “I maybe have a cup in the morning, maybe a partial one in the afternoon,” he told USA Today. And in Gibbs’ coffee cup? Green tea, Harmon says. “If you’re not eating continuously, your blood sugar level can drop, you’ll feel tired, and you’ll supplement with caffeine,” Marsico says. What many people don’t realize, however, is caffeine is a diuretic, meaning it can dehydrate you. “Most people struggle to get in their water intake anyhow,” Marsico says. “Coffee only dehydrates them more.” He acknowledges he has a cup of joe in the morning before meeting his 6 a.m. client. But to keep your energy up throughout the day, Marsico recommends eating every three to four hours, steadying out your blood sugar levels. Reach for a healthy fuel source, like fruit, and constantly drink water. “This will do better to prevent energy crashes than caffeine will,” he says. in a g ym , month you jo io ?
