EASY 3

FOR THE BEGINNER; WHO IS READY FOR CHANGE, WHO WANTS TO REDUCE BODY FAT & GET STRONGER, BUT DOESN’T KNOW WHERE TO START. Do you feel overwhelmed by how many decisions you need to make in order to follow a healthy lifestyle? Often times the broadness of the health and wellness industry can make things even harder to follow. Do I do pilates, do I go to spin class, should I join Crossfit? Is it keto or paleo or low fat? How do I optimize my protein uptake? There seems to be one

Resolutions: Why You’re Failing Every Year

One word: Specificity. When you make broad and generalized goals, such as; lose weight, get fit, sleep better etc the goal becomes overwhelming and unmeasurable. You will just end up doing the same predictable things you always do. How can you evolve your actions? This year when you write out your New Year Resolution use a strategy. I’m going to break it down for you. It’s all about subtle evolutions vs abrupt change. How long did it take you to create the habit cycle that yo

10 Ways I Reduced My Body Fat

For a very very long time, I felt “fluffy” and uncomfortable in my own body. I was running a lot, but that was about it.

New Study Finds That Antibiotics Can Destroy Endurance

UC Riverside has led a study showing that because antibiotics kill essential bacteria in the gut, they may be directly correlated with lack of voluntary exercise and athletic ability. The gut microbiome affects how the digestive system processes our food and therefore muscle function. “Metabolic end products from bacteria in the gut can be reabsorbed and used as fuel, fewer good bacteria means less available fuel, ” said Theodore Garland, UCR evolutionary physiologist.

Navigating Your Diet Through The Holidays

If you have been on or have just started a weight loss program, the holidays can feel overwhelming. In reality, even if you are not on a weight loss program the holidays feel overwhelming.

Taking a walk ten minutes after dinner has proven to reduce blood sugar levels and aid in faster digestion. Our muscles use glucose as energy, as we

Chia Seed “Banana Bread” Pudding

My 21 Day Detox is over, and my sweet tooth is a savage, so instead of hitting up the ice cream I made this chia seed pudding. I am still trying to stay away from too much dairy, so this was perrrrrrfect. It tastes just like banana bread, which is one of my favorite treats. This recipe only took ten minutes! 1/4 cup Chia seeds 1/2 cup oats 1/2 banana 1 tablespoon honey 1 tablespoon cinnamon 1 cup unsweetened almond/coconut blend milk (you can use any type of milk) Dash of tur

21 Day Detox : Week 3

And so the last week begins. The last week is certainly the most difficult. Make sure you are drinking plenty of water throughout the day. You may snack on raw fruits and veggies in between your smoothies. In the morning you will have the breakfast smoothie. Then for lunch and dinner, you will have the carrot-apple smoothie from week 2. I ended up losing 11 pounds while doing this detox. It was not my intention going into the detox, although it was a nice surprise. I ate as m

21 Day Detox : Week 2

Alright folks, here is week 2. I was a little nervous about this dinner smoothie, but I really like it! If you like carrot juice you will like it too, its actually really tasty. The second week brings us into an all uncooked plant-based diet. You have your breakfast smoothie in the morning and then a salad for lunch and tons of veggies, nuts and fruits for snack throughout the day. Then you have the dinner smoothie last. This portion the detox is preparing your body for week

Resistance Bands will make her Dance

All you need is one resistance band, a timer (your phone), and some water. (Some good tunes wouldn’t hurt) I use the Flex Timer app on my phone to set up the entire 30 minute session. You can design the interval time, rest time and even the number of rounds and rest time in between rounds. It’s awesome. This sequence is a great lower body work-out, that will blast calories as well. The key is to maintain intensity and push through that annoying lactic acid build up. Pain is

Lunge Matrix

The Lunge Matrix was originally developed by physical therapist Gary Gray, to develop strength and flexibility. We are used to lunging forwards and backwards, but most people don’t utilize the curtsy and the lateral lunge. Using our bodies in every plane of motion is the key to injury prevention and optimum strength. And the curtsy lunge is one of my all time favorite booty builders. If you do all five lunges; reverse, lateral, curtsy, forward lunge and forward lunge with tw

Does HIIT burn more calories?

High Intensity Interval Training, is one of my all time favorite methods of exercise. Long steady state cardio gets boring for me, and slow resistant training does too. But I think incorporating all three into your week is the best case scenario for everyone. Here’s a quick example of a HIIT workout you can do at home: 30 seconds on 15 seconds rest — Repeat 4 times Squat jumps Push ups Crunches Alternating Curtsy lunges Plank Burpees Dips (on a chair or bench) #metabolism #he
