Fat wont budge??

Fat around your waist is known as visceral fat.

Visceral fat is not easily lost!!

Visceral fat is dependant more upon your diet than your workout. 

Everyday, make sure you are eating enough, but not too much. 

BOTH of those are important. 

Your body knows when you are not eating enough, and it goes into starvation mode.

This slows your metabolism, and causes your body to store

the calories you are getting. 

Losing weight isn't about eating no calories and working out like crazy!

Be healthy! EAT FOOD. Workout:]

So, starting today. MAke sure you are eating at least 1500 calories.

(If you lay in bed and don't move all day, your body still needs 1200!!)

SOO with working out and doing you daily activities,

you at least want this many. 

Work to get your heat rate up to 85% of you MAX 3 days a week.

Sleep 6-8 hours every night as often as possible!!

To find your 85% MAX HR. Take you age minus 220. 

Then times that by .85

This will give your 85% MAX HR mark.

Easy Quick Safe Workouts!

So, as you get farther along in your pregnancy, 

it is extremely unsafe to do exercises on your back! However, 

walking or jogging are some of the best exercises you can do! 

Not only are you getting you cardio in and your heart rate up, but it burns

 a lot of calories fast!

Sooo.. This week push yourself to get out there and 

walk/jog/ or run at least three days this week. I know that many

have kids, but this is a fun activity to do with children to go on a walk,

or push them in your stroller!

So try this week to go a total of 4 miles or three days

a week! You CAN do it!!!

GOOD LUCK!!!

Simple Workout... Huge Results

Moms are busy. End of story.

So, today I decided to give you guys the workout I do every day. Then on the days I have no time to do anything more, I like to look at it and think that I at least did work out that day! Its simple and becomes a habit. 

Here it is:

Right when you wake up:

     - 10 Push-ups

     - 10 Crunches

     - 10 Jumping Jacks

 While brushing your teeth:

     Your choice-

       - wall sit

       - squats

Whenever you go to the bathroom:

     - do 5 squats

Take the STAIRS. 

Fidget with things. 

      - The calories add up fast.

Waiting on the toaster/ microwave:

     - do butt kicks

Sitting at a red light/ stop sign:

     - flex your abs the whole time

Looking at social media:

     - do a plank!

Before Bed:

     - 10 leg lifts

     - 20 Leg Rises (10 each leg)

     - 30 second Mountain Climbers

ENJOY :]
