You got 20 minutes?

What up peeps? You know that advertising over the years has made things easier to peak your interest and get what they are selling. Same thing with getting fit! In just 20 minutes you can get a good workout. Now if you can't find the time for just 20 minutes --  then you might need some intervention. LOL! The key is your workout has to be intense! Love making can be intense, soooooooooooo why not working out?

Here is what you can do: jump rope for 2 minutes, then go into your mountain climbers for 1 minute. Next an alternating sprinters lung for 1 minute (A sprinters lung is when you lung forward then push back up to your starting position through the heel of your foot)  followed by jogging in place for another minute. Then push-ups for 2 minutes - not str8 but, 2 minutes worth of push-ups with like a 10 second rest from the time you stopped - then do dips on a chair for 1 minutes or until fatigue. Rest for 2 1/2 minutes then start another routine of your choice or keep doing the circuit you just completed.

Get into the game of staying fit baby. & be sure to check out my website: www.bodyburnfitness.org

No Excuses

What up peeps? I have something to share with you. I have a lower back problem that I have had for years! It got worse when I was in a car accident in '06. Sometimes my back hurts so bad -- could be a herniated disk -- that I have to start off on my hands and knees to get to my feet. I know that I won't be able to run as fast as I used to, or lift as much as I used to in the weight room. BUT, I still try. I am not going to let this issue stop me from getting my workouts in. So don't let an injury or just being lazy keep you from getting some kind of physical activity in on a daily basis. It's mind over matter. Remember the little engine that could? Well get over that hill baby!

Summa Time ;)

What up peeps? It's getting hot outside yall! It's not to late to work on that body and get fit. Don't say, "Well summer is already here so why not wait until it gets cooler, then I will work out." Do it now! Believe me when I say working out will make you feel good, look good, sleep better, and have a more positive out look on life. But you have to get into the fight baby....

But let me say this before I go for the day. Don't half ass do it. You have to push yourself if you want to see results. Eat right and work out to start three times a week for the first month. Or if you really serious about gettin it in, do it daily. But listen to your body. Your body isn't saying I need a doughnut. That's all you. Your body is craving for you to treat it right. Watch your intake and GET FIT!

Seriously....?

What up peeps? If you are serious about your fitness, I hope that you got up this morning and worked out! I hope that you are eating right right now. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. So don't start your day with a bunch of junk. If you are serious about working out and changing your diet then how about this: High protein and fiber diet, and working out vigorously at least 5 x's a week? You can do it. Have faith in yourself.... Break out of your comfort zone and comfort foods and get into the fight of life baby!

FYI: Did you know that working out adds years onto you life? I don't know about you but, I want to see my great grand kids ;)

On this day....

What up peeps? Make this day a good one. Get up and work out. Warm up the body first by jumping rope or doing some aerobics. Then get in a nice stretch before you start your workout! Start your workout by working your abs. You should have a nice sweat by now. After your workout routine, stretch again for about five minutes and your done! Now don't you feel good?

It heals all your ills....

What up peeps? Do you wake up in the morning with aches and pains and feel like you need more than the 8 hrs sleep that you just got up from? If you feel like this then you definitely need to work out as soon as possible! Let me share a couple of techniques with you that will get you on the fast track to feeling and looking good:

1. If you are having lower back pains or have a bulging disk, you need YOGA in your life ASAP! Strengthen up your core. Strong abs will have your back feeling better.

2. Here is something you can do to get your joints (tendons) strong. Get into a starting push up position and hold it there. Or hold on the down position for thirty seconds. These will strengthen the tendons in your elbows and wrist. It will also build up your abs, shoulders, and pectoral muscles. I suggest 3 - 4 sets with a 30 second rest. Do this consistently and you will feel a difference in no time!
