"I am a fully certified personal trainer and fitness nutrition specialist. I have been training clients for nearly 10 years and during that time I have refined my fitness strategy to provide the best results, but more importantly, to do so while having fun! I know that if you enjoy your workouts you are much more likely to stick with them, and the QUEENTEAM program is all about building amazing habits for how you workout and eat.
Regular exercise isn’t just great for your body, it’s also going to help you feel happier, more optimistic and give you more energy. My favorite thing about what I do is seeing how people transform both mentally and physically when they incorporate exercise into their lifestyle. I focus on creating a program which will never grow boring, so that it is easy for you to make my workouts part of your daily routine. That’s why I write a whole new workout every single week day – I want to offer you a program that you can stick with for life!"
Besides this, Sami Clarke likes to workout in the morning rather than during the evenings or at night. She tries to work out at least 5 times a day but some times her hectic schedule does even allow such royalties.

Sami Clarke Diet Plan
Sticking to a Morning Ritual
Sami is a morning kind of person and she loves to start her day with a fixed ritual. It helps her think clear and be positive throughout the day. She wakes up at 6 or 6.30 A.M. and makes sure she is not looking at her phone the first thing in the morning like most of us do.She then gets out of the bed to have a full glass of lemon water right away to stay hydrated and kick start her metabolism and her mornings. She then plays some soothing music, light aromatic candle, and meditates every day in order to practice positive mindfulness. It helps her stay calm and brings peace to her mind.
“After I am finished meditating, I will finally check my phone and start prepping my green juice to get my day moving,” she describes.
Sami swears by this everyday green juice that she says has been a total game-changer.“It boosts my immune system, gives me energy, rejuvenates my skin. I’m honestly obsessed,” she exclaimed! She also shared the recipe with her followers.

Meal Planning
Sami Clarke is a big meal planner and likes to plan her meals a week advanced to make sure she is on track throughout the week. She has very healthy eating habits. For health, being healthy is not resorting to tasteless and bland foods. When she cooks, she says, all her dishes seem so mouth-watering.She also advises to look for healthy alternatives and switch them for unhealthy ones. Cooking the meal yourself lets you know what exactly you are putting in the meal and hence your body. She also has a big sweet tooth but she haves her cake and eats it too by making it healthy. She says, “If you have a sweet tooth, make a healthy smoothie that tastes like a treat! I make chocolate protein shakes all the time when I just can’t kick my sweet tooth.”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BL5Eh6iABIgShe shares a Chocolate Banana Protein Shake from her Mealplan App with her followers that she often makes to satisfy her sweet cravings.

Daily Journaling
Another thing that is a part of her morning routine is her journal. She loves to write her journal as much as she can. Journaling includes writing down your thoughts and emotions to understand them more clearly. It helps to let go of bad feelings and negative emotions. When she writes the journal, she likes to play some soothing music in the backdrop because it helps her to stay focused. She calls her journaling a "mind-dump" that helps her de-clutter all the negatives emotions from her mind. She writes and forgets. She does not judge her feelings.
Journaling also helps to keep a record of your feelings and emotions and what you are thinking. It is almost like a medium of self-expression. It has been proven that maintaining a journal has many benefits like, it reduces stress, helps to improve immunity, t boosts mood, keeps the memory sharp, and helps to strengthen emotional intelligence. After this, she likes to make a to-do list and stick to that. It helps her prioritize her daily tasks so that she could complete them in any order without any delays.
“I usually just write something funny that comes to my mind, my priorities for the day, or even just how I am feeling,” explains Sami.
Commitment and Consistency
Sami Clarke is very committed to her goals because she is clear about it. She also tries to be as consistent as possible. She tells that listening to herself and her body needs has really helped to elevate her game. It was when she made some major changes that her health improved many folds. She started drinking more water which helped her prioritizing hydration. She slept more, did not drink much alcohol as she used to, and listened to what her body requires. This is how she saw a dramatic transformation in herself and her fitness.
For her, fitness is not just about how you feel from outside and how you look. It is also about how you feel from inside. She never lets herself get back downed by negative emotions and feelings and gives her mental health as much priority as she gives to her physical appearance.“My number one health tip I tell people is always to be consistent. I could tell you to drink more water, eat healthily or work out every day, but if you aren’t consistent it won’t matter.”This was all about what Sami Clarke has to offer to the world through her workouts, diet plans and ways to keep mental health intact. Apparently, this holistic approach to fitness is all that she roots for and if it has worked for her, she sees no reason that it might not work for anyone else. Lastly, she is all about maintaining a balance in her life. It is one of the key factors that she swears by.
