So you want the secret to great abs?
Well, get in line. So does everyone else.
It's puzzling that something so desirable is
completely elusive for most people. Especially when it IS fully possible for
you to dramatically shape up your waistline.
My clients routinely lose weight and transform
their bodies. You can do it too.
We are going to end the mystery for you now, once
and for all. So forget everything you've heard about how to get flat, toned
abs.
The true secret to great abs is a winning
combination of fat burning cardio, resistance training and clean eating. That's
it: Exercise and Eating.
Simple enough, once you understand how to do it.
Your Exercise Routine: An
effective exercise routine includes intense cardiovascular training with
effective resistance training. Are you doing this?
Sorry, but walking on the treadmill for 30
minutes isn't a fat blasting routine. And neither is a leisurely 20 minutes on
the elliptical machine. Cardio exercise is all about maintaining a high level
of intensity.
You need to push yourself.
Resistance training is the second side to a fat
burning workout. This means working your major muscle groups against
challenging resistance in a way that stimulates your metabolism.
The key is to find the right intensity and to
keep each muscle group guessing.
Your Diet: Diet is a big stumbling
block for most people—especially as it relates to their abs. If your diet is
out of control then your abs will be too, plain and simple. You can't trim your
waist without trimming the junk from your diet.
Start by keeping your total calories in check. Do
you know how many calories you eat? The best way to find out is to record
everything you eat for a few days. Tally the number of calories that you eat
each day and do an evaluation—feel free to recruit us to help out with this
part. Together we'll chart improvements for your diet and adjust your calories
for maximum results.
Also, stop eating junk food. While this may seem
obvious, your definition of "junk food" may need to be updated. Any
item with refined sugar, such as soft drinks, blended coffee drinks, cookies,
cakes, packaged snacks, and other sinfully sweet treats, need to be off-limits.
As a rule of thumb, write all processed or refined items off as junk food.
Do you want to flatten and sculpt your abs once
and for all? It's time to decide that you really want it. Commit to
yourself—you deserve it.
See us for fat-blasting workouts that deliver
serious results. Together we will get you on a program that will melt the fat
off your abs, exposing amazing shape and definition.

A Side Of Exercise, Please!
How many times have you attempted to reshape your
body by dieting alone? Boy that gets frustrating...
Exercise is an equally important factor when it
comes to fat loss. While clean eating helps by restricting fattening calories,
exercise revs up your metabolism for an all-day calorie burn.
Dieting alone won't cut it. Call or email us
today and we will get you started on an exercise plan that's going to quickly
transform your body.
Spicy Chicken Chowder with Carrot
Noodles
Love noodles in your soup? Here's a delicious way
to enjoy noodles without the typical waist-expanding carbohydrates. Take a
vegetable peeler and create long strips of carrots or zucchini, and use these
in your homemade soup as noodles. It's fun, it's tasty, and it will get you one
step closer to those amazing abs.
Servings: 8
Here's what you need...
•
2 Tablespoons Coconut oil (Or use bacon fat for
more flavor)
•
3 cloves garlic, minced
•
2 lbs bone-in, skinless chicken thighs
•
1 butternut squash, seeded peeled and cubed (3-4
cups)
•
1 bunch red kale, chopped
•
1 (160z) jar green, roasted salsa
•
4 cups Chicken Broth
•
5 large carrots, made into flat noodles with a
vegetable peeler
•
1 Tablespoon lime juice
•
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
•
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1 In a large soup pot, place the coconut oil (or
bacon fat) over medium high heat. Add the garlic and chicken thighs and cook,
stirring often, for 5 minutes. Add the butternut squash cubes and chopped kale.
Continue to cook for 5 minutes.
2
Add the salsa and chicken broth and bring to a
low boil.
3
Wash the carrots, then use a vegetable peeler to
create long, flat "noodles". Add to the pot. Reduce to a simmer and
cover for 40 minutes.
4
Remove the chicken from the pot and pull the
chicken meat from the bones. Use an immersion blender to puree 1/3 of the
vegetables. Return the meat to the pot and discard the bones. Add most of the
cilantro, saving just enough to garnish each bowl. Serve warm.
