BY TEAM LIFE IZ | MAY 18, 2016 We recently caught up with celebrity trainer Chris Tye-Walker to chat about his fitness philosophy and love of interval training. It’s easy to see why trainers like Chris are changing the fitness industry, and the reason left us warm and fuzzy. Chris’s resume and demand as one of the most sought after trainers in Hollywood only makes you feel slightly inadequate, until you realise it’s all surpassed by his love for genuinely helping people.

Sometimes it is this simple! Don't get overwhelmed. Health and fitness is ***lifestyle*** not a destination. Today, don't think about the big picture, just focus on the small steps you can take; water, rest, your next meal... and most importantly self-love and care. YOU GOT THIS! #fitnessmotivation #motivation #healthylifestyle #christyewalker #teamctw #ctwfitness

What do you do to stop from coming home and snacking on sugar or unhealthy foods? I prep my food/meals for the week. If my fuel is there, ready to go in the fridge when I get home or whenever I'm hungry it helps me make better, healthier eating choices. Of course, I'm all about a CHEAT DAY... but try prepping your meals for the week and see if it helps you on your way to a healthier lifestyle! #ctwfittip #fittip #healthylifestyle #healthyeating #christhewalkerblog

Grab some friends and be active! Even if you're on vacation (I'm in Palm Springs for a guy's getaway), you can get outside and play tennis or football. Find something active to do. Fitness doesn't always have to involve going to the GYM... just get out there, SWEAT AND HAVE FUN!!! #fittip #ctwfit #fitness #healthylifestyle #fitnessblog

In Sedona this weekend, for a wedding. Of course, even when I'm out of town or on vacation I try to find some kind of activity... and what a perfect place for a hike! WOW. Sedona is beautiful. On your next trip, go somewhere local, take a hike, snap a picture and appreciate the views and chance to walk, run and adventure around to see them! #trainertravels #ctwfitness #healthylifestyle #personaltrainer #fitnesstrainer #sedonahike #sedonaview

Take the stairs people! Stop being lazy. Escalators are packed with germs and everyone glued to their cell phones... There is exercise waiting for us everywhere we go! Walking stairs is awesome for the butt AND legs.... especially when you find yourself at the airport and about to board a long 11-hour flight. Walk people, WALK!!! #fittip #ctwfit #fitnesstip #healthylifestyle #fitnessblog #ctwfitness

There it is - one of my favorites breakfasts. Organic avocado toast with poached eggs and a variety of tomatoes. So good. My idea of perfection! To improve it, add some lean chicken or salmon. Bon appetit! #healthybreakfast #healthylifestyle #ctweats #ctwnutrition #avocadotoastwithpoachedeggs

New fast food concept, FALA BAR (in West Hollywood)-- it's a vegan falafel: organic & local produce. The menu is gluten free (except pita), dairy free & nut free. Opens today on Melrose/Genesee. GO!!!! #ctwfoodfav #healthylifestyle #celebritytrainer #ctwfitness #falabar #wehoeats #ctwfav

After track sprints and a heavy lift at the gym, I gotta refuel. This is the perfect post-double-workout breakfast: 4 egg whites and half an avocado + omega-3 steel oats with berries, flax seeds and flax oil. A perfect combo of healthy fats, proteins and carbs. #ctweats #celebritytrainer #lifeofatrainer #cleaneating #ctwfitness #healthylifestyle #healthybreakfast
