Some Golden Rules

ski_face

Hi! Here to solve your workout problems, this week.

So you've hit a weight loss Plateau?
You tell me you’re:

- Eating well
- Exercising regularly
- and FRUSTRATED that you are aren't making progress!

I must have answered this question millions of times! Trust me, here are the 3 mistakes that you are making:
1) Your perception of ‘eating well’ doesn't match the reality of what food, time of eating, and frequency. To learn the rules of fat loss, you need to read (rather study!) The Beez Kneez 10 Golden nutrition rules.
2) There is no variety in your training.
3) You need increase the intensity of your training (rather than the duration).

If there is no change in your workout from month to month, then your body will not change either. So change the workout every 4 weeks and do not be afraid to take on a little more challenge! You want your body to use the maximum amount of muscle groups in an exercise without having to spend ages in the gym!
Ditch slow, boring cardio exercises in favour of bodyweight exercises like push-ups and pull-ups. Choose 7 exercises and go from one to the next exercise for 20 reps max each with minimal rest. Then rest 1 minute and repeat the circuit up to three times. Bang! You have a great workout done in 20 minutes – no messing and no boredom (you won’t get time!!!). Make sure you have correct technique and do the exercises safely.
Avoid anything you are not comfortable doing...but if you are fit and healthy, you can increase the intensity and add some dumbbells. Your nutrition needs to be 90% good with fresh, whole foods and creativity with vegetables – more on that next time. GOD, it’s more than carrots, broccoli and green beans slumped on a plate with a couple of pototes you know – BORING! Stay posted and I’ll fill you in next week with ‘Stylish ways to vitalize your veggies’ ! Stay fit, dude. FIT VIC XX
