Burn Those Calories

When you workout 5 days a week and don’t see a difference, you start to lose motivation. Your body is on this plateau, and you’ve started to gain weight. You’re ready to quit…

The thing is, you need to keep going and get out of the rut. Instead of working out and burning 300 calories, it needs to double.

• Instead of working the lower body, combine the lower and upper body workouts
• Mix up your walk with shuffles
• Don’t rest, pump up the cardio between sets and do jumping jacks or front kicks
• Add extra weight with a weight vest
• Try drop sets where you go from heaviest to light
• Increase your weights to sculpt your arms  – it makes a difference  in your workout

Stress = not your friend. Relax is the way to do it! It’s no fun when you finally lay in bed and you can’t relax. Your to-do list gets longer, your mind goes at 9o mph,  and you won’t fall asleep. Don’t get on your email and leave your cell on the nightstand. Here’s a few things that help me fix this problem:

• Drink tea before you fall asleep (make sure it’s the sleepy kind, instead of caffeinated)
• A glass of wine
• Listen to music or white noise (download the white noise app from iTunes)
• Take a warm bath
• Read a book (just make sure it’s enjoyable)

What helps you relax and makes it easier for you to sleep at night?
