The “OLD” Way of doing fitness

Are you tired of the old way of doing fitness? The endless cycle of pushing yourself to the limit with harder and harder workouts, only to end up feeling exhausted and burnt out. It's time to shift our mindset and embrace a new approach to fitness. Instead of focusing on punishing our bodies with intense workouts, let's prioritize sustainable, enjoyable movement that nourishes our minds and bodies. Whether it's yoga, Pilates, dancing, hiking, or any activity that brings you joy, find what works for you and makes you feel good. Remember, fitness is not about punishment or extremes - it's about finding balance, listening to your body, and honoring what it needs. Let's ditch the old mentality and embrace a more mindful, holistic approach to fitness. Your body will thank you for it. 💪🌿 #FitnessEvolution #MindfulMovement #HolisticHealth

Get Lean After 40 ( here’s how)

How to crush those last 10 lbs

  Got a frustrating few pounds left?  You've been on point with your fitness, getting in your workouts and eating cleaner than ever before. Initially the weight fell off, and it motivated you to keep it up. But now your results have stopped. You’re still doing all that hard work, but it's no longer showing in pounds lost, inches shed and compliments gained. What gives? That's seriously frustrating. The good news is that reaching a plateau with your results is natural and normal. It happens to everyone. And there is a solution… Here are my 3 Foolproof Steps to Crush The Last 10 LBS (BTW these steps also work when applied to the first few pounds!) Foolproof Step #1: Eliminate The Sugar Yeah, yeah, I know you’re eating cleaner than you’ve ever eaten before, and that you’ve eliminated the junk food that you used to enjoy. But don’t tell me that you’ve taken all of the sugar out of your diet. When it comes to crushing those last few pounds you must become ruthless with eliminat

Your Exercise "Cheat Sheet"

 I’ve got a cheat sheet for you today… Be sure to save it because it’ll come in handy the next time you’re confused about the BEST exercises and workouts to do to reach your goals. Because — if your social feeds are anything like mine — chances are you’re being fed a TON of conflicting info. It can be hard to know what to do — or who to believe. The FOUR tried-and-true basics on this list are a no-fail way to boost your health AND your fitness. 4 Ways to Fast-Track Your Fitness ✅Get at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity cardio  OR 75 minutes of vigorous cardio every single week. (TIP: That’s only a half-hour 5 days a week!) ✅Do a total body workout with weights 2x a week.  For best results, spread these out during the week — and use weights heavy enough to challenge your muscles. (NOTE: You can do more strength workouts if you like!) ✅Once you’ve got a baseline  of cardio fitness, start to ramp up your intensity and/or how long you’re working out.

Willpower and Motivation are NOT the Answer. Do this instead

The reality of 2024 setting in as your goals feel more out of reach every day? This is nothing to be ashamed of — besides, guilt is one of the most destructive emotions there is. It's early in the year. If you get back on track now, you can still make this a kickass year for your body and overall health!

I didn’t feel like working out

  You know those days when you finally leave work…… and the LAST thing you want to do is hit the gym, cook dinner, and tackle your never-ending to-do list? Have you ever thought about what happens when you say the heck with it… and  DON’T  do those things? In the moment it feels like a relief.But later? It can feel like a real letdown.Because choosing NOT to slack off — to do the thing anyway, especially after a tough day —  is where real growth happens . Every time you choose to push through, you're not just working toward your goals…You're also building mental resilience and self-efficacy (your belief in yourself to follow through). And that’s not even talking about how your workout can actually boost your mood and energy levels because of the feel-good hormones released during exercise. These small victories — the moments when you choose what's good for you over what's easy — add up to big changes. So, next time you feel like ditching your routine in favor of the cou

7 Secrets Behind Every Successful Diet

The secret behind the effectiveness of different diets, despite differing principles and guidelines, lies in a few core concepts that are common across all successful diet plans. These seven fundamental elements provided are found in all successful diets when weight loss and improved health is the goal. 1. Caloric Deficit At the heart of most diets is the principle of a caloric deficit. Whether it's a low-carb diet like Keto, a low-fat diet, or intermittent fasting, the underlying mechanism for weight loss is consuming fewer calories than the body expends. This deficit forces the body to use stored fat for energy, leading to weight loss. 2. Nutritional Balance Many effective diets emphasize a balance of nutrients. They promote a varied intake of essential nutrients like proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals. For instance, Mediterranean and plant-based diets focus on whole foods, offering a rich array of nutrients essential for the body's overall

The one-two punch for fast fat loss

  How many times have you looked in the mirror and wished that you could make your belly fat vanish before your eyes? Unsightly fat around the stomach is one of the most common body frustrations that I come across with my clientele. No one wants a chubby stomach! Unfortunately for most, losing body fat is a slow and steady process, rather than an instantaneous fix. However…I do have an extremely effective method for losing belly fat faster than ever, and I’d like to share it with you today… The One-Two Punch For Fast Fat Loss.  This deadly, fat-incinerating method fights fat simultaneously on two separate fronts for maximum effectiveness: your sugar intake and your high intensity workouts. First Punch:  This is the punch that requires zero extra effort on your part! In fact all you have to do is NOT do something that you’re currently doing! You stop consuming refined sugar, in all its forms. This means no sodas, no desserts, no packaged snacks, no candy, no mocha latte

What’s YOUR version of 100%?

 What if you woke up tomorrow and decided to give the day your VERY BEST? And by that I mean, you intentionally decide to give everything you do 100% of your attention, focus, and effort. And then you BRING IT. This isn’t something you can do EVERY day — because you’d burn out — but once in a while? It’s AMAZING. Here’s why: It helps you see what 100% of your effort looks and feels like It helps you pinpoint your priorities and what truly needs your full attention vs. what doesn’t It keeps you focused and in the moment  It helps you push the needle forward on what you’re capable of — no slacking allowed And it doesn’t have to be for an entire day! Even spending just an hour or two in “100%” mode a few times a week can yield HUGE results.  It can also help you level up because you’ll be able to easily recognize when you’re not operating at your absolute best. Another thing I love: you get to decide what your 100% looks like. Example
