  2. Spartan Eating Habits • Just because you can go up twice at the dining hall, doesn’t mean you have to… • A good way to avoid the “freshmen 15” is to try to eat a Spartan Salad with every meal. • Spartans also avoid snacking between meals. • Make sure to not eat anything right before going to bed.

  3. Spartan Eating Habits • Spartans make sure to eat from all of the 5 food groups. • Fruits (apples), vegetables (salads), wholegrains (pasta, bread, cereal), dairy (milk, yogurt), and meats (beef, chicken). • Spartans try to avoid foods high in fats, salt, and sugars.

  4. Spartan Fitness • True Spartans are in peak physical condition. • As for the rest of us, simply staying active is a good way to stay in shape. • Basketball, football, running, extreme ping-pong, any activity that requires some exercise is good for staying in shape.

  5. Spartan Fitness • A good way to keep in shape is by doing calisthenics. • Calisthenics are exercises designed to develop muscular tone and promote physical well-being. • By doing push-ups, and crunches, a Spartan can keep that “toned” physique that they are famous for…

  6. Spartan Hygiene • True Spartans must keep clean. • Showering daily is a good way to keep off the smell of battle (or daily living in your case...). • Brushing your teeth daily also helps. • Spartans who are injured always make sure to clean their wounds and bandage them properly.

  7. Spartan Romance • Spartans are known for their romance. • Every Spartan knows that both Spartans must be consenting when engaging in any sexual act. • Spartans make sure to protect themselves by using a condom every time.

  8. Spartans and Alcohol • While Spartans love a good glass of wine, they know when they’ve had too much. • True Spartans keep their alcohol consumption to a minimum, and they only drink if they are of legal drinking age. • Spartans need to be sober in order to defeat the Persians. • An army of drunk Spartans will be easily defeated.

  9. Spartans and Alcohol • Spartans also look out for each other when they go out. • Just like when going to fight Persians, Spartans always travel in groups and make sure that they stay together the entire time. • Spartans never leave anyone behind.

  10. Spartan Sleeping Habits • A big part of being a Spartan is getting a good nights sleep. • The typical Spartan needs 8 hours of sleep a night to be rested enough to fight off Persians. • Spartans avoid caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol late at night because it helps you get a better sleep.

  11. Spartan Sleeping Habits • Some Spartan methods for getting a good nights sleep are: • Going to bed and wake up at the same time every night and morning. • Avoid napping. • Try to relax or wind down before going to bed. • If noise is a problem, Spartans will sometimes turn on a fan to drown out other noises.
