WHETHER YOU’RE GROCERY
shopping for one or trying to nourish a family, food bills can add up fast — especially if you’re consistent with your healthy get-lean diet. After all, wild salmon, grass-fed beef and microgreens aren’t cheap. What’s more, food prices have increased by more than 3 percent overall in the past year. (Thanks, pandemic.)
But you don’t have to spend a fortune to eat like a champ. You just need to seek out and buy foods with a big nutritional bang for your buck. There are plenty of frugal-minded superfoods, so even if you’re pinching pennies, you don’t need to pass on nutrition.
Harvard researchers
found that the price disparity between healthier eating habits (i.e., more fruits, vegetables and lean meats) and lousy ones (i.e., more sodas and snack foods) is only about $1.50 a day.
Contrary to popular belief, eating healthy is possible on a budget. Check out these stealth health foods that won’t bust the bank.

THE POWER CLEAN (Discover this dirty little secret for better functional fitness.)
OLYMPIC LIFTS ARE A VALUABLE TOOL FOR IMPROVING STRENGTH and athletic performance — and as a side bonus, they also help develop crazy-good muscle shape, size, and definition. In fact, one could argue that the power-clean portion of the clean-and-jerk is the best exercise ever devised. “The clean is a functional movement used [routinely] in everyday activities,” says Aaron Viscounte, CSCS, head coach and manager at Summer’s Fitness Inc. in North Canton, Ohio. “We use aspects of the clean to pick up a box and put it on a shelf, move furniture or even go grocery shopping.” During a power clean, the barbell travels from the floor to the “racked” position at shoulder level and back down again. We tapped some elite trainers for their step-by-step expert advice on making the most of every rep.
