Spot training

Don't we wish we could spot train? Man I do! Take the extra fat around the arms, and the stomach! But its not possible. Darn. So what can we do? What will help take our fat percentage down and lean us out so our muscles can show?

CARDIO! That's right cardio! Now don't get me wrong we need to be lifting weights or some other variation of weight training but you aren't going to get lean just by that!

One of my favorite ways to get in my cardio is by running. I know some people like to bike or swim better. Great! Whatever it may be, do it And do it for at least 45 minutes a day.

If you do this and add it to a clean diet you will see your body fat percentage go down and you will look more toned!

Happy sweating!!

Water

Making sure you get plenty of water throughout the day is very important! If you have a hard time knowing for sure how much you are drinking here are a few tips!

1. Have a big glass of ice water on you counter when you are home. It helps you grab it and drink that rather than trying to search for something else!

2. Keep a water bottle in the car. This will stop those gas station stops because you are thirsty! Save you money, time and maybe calories!

3. Set a timer on your phone to drink 8 ounces of water throughout the day

4. Drink one full glass if water before you eat lunch or dinner. This will also help you eat less!

5. Add some flavor to your wAter. Some days water just doesn't do it for me. Do i will add a lemon. But you can also find sugar free add ins at the store! It'll help you get a little different flavor but not get you away from water!
