Here’s Part Two of your 7 Day summer Fat Loss Plan to help you kick start your summer ready body!
Day Two
How To Eat
Eat ~ Eat With Consistency
Getting your body ready for summer does not mean you drastically cut calories and skip meals – this will only slow your metabolism down and increase hunger and cravings.
Eating every 3 to 4 hours starting with breakfast is key to helping you stay on track and avoid over eating the foods that sabotage summer ready results. The easiest way to get into this fat burning habit is to Plan Ahead.
Too often we leave meals to the last minute and end up grabbing foods out of convenience that do not support fat loss. As you map out your day, plan on having a protein and produce with each meal every 3 hours or so. This can be as simple as a grab and go snack – such as a granny smith apple and 1/4 cup of almonds – or having a grilled salmon lettuce wrap topped with pineapple mango salsa.
How To Move
Trade L O N G Cardio for Intervals
Interval Training
Studies -as well as countless testimonials of Cardio Queens – prove high intensity cardio workouts, “Intervals”, can…
* dramatically boost metabolism – both during AND after exercise
* creates a faster rate of body fat-to-energy conversion
* preserve lean muscle (muscle is your metabolism – you do not what to lose this!)
* significantly increase in aerobic capacity (Max VO2) = increased endurance and stamina
The Main Reason Why we love Intervals
**They are short!**
As busy women, we just do not have the TIME to spend an hour a day 6 to 7 days each and every week on the treadmill or elliptical. If you can get it done in a matter of minutes AND feel an amazing amount of energy -YOU will KEEP Doing It – this is a realistic plan that lends to the ease of being consistent!
Here is a sampler I filmed last summer to help you get going. Best options for Intervals are body weight moves such as jumping jacks, jump rope, sprints and one of my favorites…Burpees!
The Key to Summer Fat Loss Workouts is to Get your body to work FOR you – not working your body to exhaustion – honestly – where does that get you?
