THE POWER TO SUCCEED

DESIRE, DETERMINATION & COMMITMENT

"Desire is the key to motivation, but it's the determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal - a commitment to excellence - that will enable you to attain the success you seek." Mario Andretti

Desire is the fuel to ignite your dreams. Determination is the power to reach for your goals. Commitment is the vessel to obtain excellence. Living the LivFit Lifestyle takes willpower and fortitude to succeed. By following my LivFit guidelines & workout routines you will literally transform your life. You’ll find that you not only have more energy, but you’ll also have more self-confidence, more patience and more abundance.

I’m passionate about assisting other's in achieving their goals and dreams. I want to assist others in to becoming the best they can be. Connecting with the power from within will be life changing. You already have everything you need to succeed. We just forget how powerful we are as we let "life" get in the way of creating our dreams. By believing in yourself and thinking kind thoughts you'll literally transform your physique sooner.

Along with having positive thoughts exercising daily and eating clean is a must. To aid your weight loss & health goal be sure to drink 2 to 4 oz of Liv Sxinney, 2 servings of Go (one morning and one at night) and take Crave between meals to keep you on track. Liv Sxinney is a phenomenal product as you know, drink it all day long for added energy & weight loss. Drink LIMUPlus for optimal nutrition, VitaOne multivitamins & Crave (an energy drink) by Vitamark Int'l. Vitamark also offers diet cookies that are delicious! They have fiber & protein in each cookie, it's a perfect snack to accompany your favorite protein drink.

Stay motivated by committing to excellence! Be true to yourself and remember to stay focused on your goals throughout the day to keep you on the fast-track to success!

WEIGHT LOSS SUCCESS TIPS

Summer is here which means swimsuit season! You don't need to feel shy at the pool if you take charge of your fitness goals today! Living the LivFit Lifestyle is a powerful gift that only you can give yourself! Exercising 30 to 60 minutes daily 4 to 6 times a week along with eating often will greatly improve your quality of life in miraculous ways!

Proper nutrition is approximately 85% of the “hard body” equation. Choosing to eat 5 to 6 small balanced meals throughout the day will turbo-charge your metabolism – literally! A small meal consists of a lean protein (at least 20 to 30 grams), complex carb (15 to 20 grams), fresh veggies, good fats (1 to 2 T of an Omega 3-6-9 blend daily) and at least 80 oz of filtered water daily. By eating small meals you will boost your metabolism while building and maintaining lean, strong muscle tissue. Going without eating for hours on end will only build up your unwanted fat stores. Your metabolism is like a fire, it takes fuel to maintain and keep it burning. If you stop feeding the fire it will die out, if you feed too much fuel at once it will be smoldered out and the fuel that wasn’t burned goes to the wayside – which means it turns into fat storage… It is a must to eat often to create or maintain a lean physique.

A small meal means just that, using PORTION CONTROL! A basic rule of thumb is to use the size of the “palm” of your hand as a portion size for each food group on your plate. Be sure to take note of when you eat; eating every three to four hours will boost your metabolism into overdrive and will supercharge your energy level. Which in turn you’ll desire to be more active which will burn more calories, it’s simple; eat 3 main meals and a healthy protein snack between each meals consisting of 5 to 6 small meals a day.

Exercising everyday is an absolute must to obtain a lean summer body. If time is your excuse then wake up an hour earlier to workout - make it a high priority. Set short-term attainable goals that you can reach each week. Alternate interval training (cardio) with strength training every other day to build a shapely physique; for optimal fat burning results do interval training for cardio each morning on an empty stomach, then do light cardio such as going for a 30 minute walk or bike ride in the evenings.

Living a LivFit Lifestyle is highly rewarding; by honoring your fitness goals and dreams you'll have more self-confidence, feel empowered and look hot in your swimsuit! So get moving, eat clean and embrace life with heartfelt gratitude every day for a happier, healthier life!

Eating a healthy, clean diet is the cornerstone of good health & living a fit lifestyle. Below is a list of foods rated by the Glycemic Index. By eating foods that are low GI you'll lose fat much faster, tone up sooner and have tons more energy (you may want to print off the list and place it in your pantry.) Stock up on foods that have a low GI rating and stay away from processed foods that are loaded with sugar, sodium and preservatives; they'll destroy your hard work and feelings of well being.
