A HARD BODY AT ANY AGE!

As a Lifestyle Fitness coach I focus on balancing the body, mind and spirit to create a powerful, positive mind-set; by doing so goals can become a reality with a well-designed fitness and LivFit meal plan.

I believe to achieve ultimate health you have to begin by loving who you are right now! By focusing on and learning how to have a positive mind-set every dream can come true. I ask my clients to take time to sit down and write out what they really want. I ask them why they want to lose weight. What are reasons for change? Whatever it is I have them write it down and create a powerful vision. Then I ask them to focus on it daily.

To curb emotional eating I teach how to focus on pampering oneself by indulging in what you love to do; such as reading a good book, taking a walk, calling a close friend, going shopping or getting a manicure. I also coach how to be prepared emotionally by having a mental game plan for when those emotional urges arise for cravings you will have an exit strategy out of the kitchen!

LIV SXINNEY WORKS!

Living the LivFit Lifestyle is how I live my life. I’ve had phenomenal results by drinking Liv Sxinney and Go daily. I’ve dropped 9% body fat! I was finally able to reach my target body fat goal! Needless to say, I’m very pleased with the results. And to top it all off, I spend less time in my gym.

I start each morning drinking Go before my workout. I do interval training for my cardio 6 days a week for 30 minutes and weight lifting 4 days a week alternating upper and lower body. During my workout I hydrate with Liv Sxinney, it gives me the added energy and nutrients my tired muscles need to finish my tough workouts. I always have a recovery whey protein shake directly after my workouts to ensure my ready and hungry muscles receive the much needed nutrients.

EAT TO BURN FAT & BUILD MUSCLE

Healthy eating is a vital key to fitness success. Without proper nutrient you can do all the crunches you want but will never see the desired 6 pack. I eat a small meal every 3 to 4 hours consisting of a lean protein, complex carbohydrate and some good fat. I have my last meal between 6 and 7 pm. If I get hungry later in the evening I have some cRave and drink Liv Sxinney. It’s very satisfying and takes the hunger pangs away. Then right before bed, I take Go again to ensure I build and recover during the night. I’ll always drink Liv Sxinney and Go! It truly has changed my life. By drinking it daily I’ve been able to accomplish my fitness goals, at the age of 40 I’m in the best shape of my life!

Living my LivFit Lifestyle is just tht it’s a way of life, it’s NOT a diet! It’s not deprivation, and it’s not a way to lose weight only to regain the weight back (and more) in a few months. It’s a fit way of living for life! By embracing a healither way to live and incorporating my LivFit Lifestyle you will literally transform your world in miraculous ways!

HOW TO SCULPT A SIX PACK

HOW TO SCULPT A SIX PACK

 

SIX PACK ABS

I'm often asked is how to achieve a six pack.  It's a lofty goal for some but very achievable with hard work, endurance along with clean eating. You can have a tight, sexy mid-section by following my Six Pack Ab program. By committing to it you will have a killer washboard stomach within 90 days (if you don't have a lot of weight to lose and if you do it will just take you a bit longer). It's not easy but it's well worth your time and energy to work towards such a lofty goal.

DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES? 

First you need to look at your family's genetics. What is your physique like now? How about your family, what are your parents and siblings figures like? Do they carry most of their weight in their abdominal area or the bottom half? If you carry your weight mainly around the middle then it will take you a bit longer to see your awesome six pack than those that carry their weight around the lower half. Don't be discouraged, just realize where you gain weight first will be the last place you lose it. It's a bummer for sure, but if you understand how the body burns fat then you'll be better equipped on how to accomplish your goal of getting a ripped middle.

EXERCISE TO BURN THE FAT

For starters, you can't pinpoint or isolate a specific muscle groups to tone. The entire body has to shed fat in order to see the beloved six pack. We all have abdominal muscles; it's just a matter of losing the fat stores that covers them. As you start to lose weight and strengthen your muscles you'll soon begin to see those small abdominal muscles and that is exciting!

EAT TO BURN FAT

To achieve best results you'll need to reduce your caloric intake and be sure to eat small meals throughout the day. Eat your largest meal at the beginning of the day tapering off to having your smallest meal at the end of the day. Each meal should consist of a lean protein, a complex carb and some good fat every 3 to 4 hours. Try to have your last meal between 6 and 7pm. Be sure to drink at least a gallon of purified water daily to keep your metabolism burning and to remove toxins from the body. You'll need to eat clean that means no sugar, processed foods, white flour or rice and try to stay away from breads. If eating clean is confusing to you a good rule of thumb is "If God didn't make it don't eat it." By eating whole foods your body will be fueled with the proper energy it will need to build efficiently build a hard, shapely physique.

CARDIO TO THE RESCUE

Next you'll need to do interval cardio training at least 5 days a week if you want to see your six pack sooner than later along with lifting weights (each exercise to failure) at least 3 days a week. As you strength train you'll use your core muscle to stabilize your body which will strengthen your abdominal muscles. Doing core training such as yoga and Pilate's is also an excellent choice for core strengthening.

Performing exercises that focuses on the core muscles is absolutely necessary to achieve a desired six pack. Below is a list of various exercises that you will need to do 3 times a week on Monday's, Wednesday's & Friday's. Do not train your abs every day, they need recovery time too just like your other muscles. Do each exercise 3 sets of 25 reps; you can do them before cardio to ensure you'll have enough energy to complete each exercise with good form. Remember quality or quantity.

SIX PACK WORKOUTS

Crunches - with your legs up in the air at a 90 degree angle.

Twist Crunches - reaching with your elbow across your body to the opposite knee.

Three-Up Crunches - do 3 small crunches in a row holding each little crunch as you go up.

Bicycles - lay on your back and raise your pelvis up and do bicycles with your legs, 25 forward and 25 backward.

V-Ups - lay on your back raise your legs and arms at a 90 degree angle hold for 2 seconds and release back down to beginning position.

YOU MUST COMMIT TO ACHIEVING SUCCESS

Really commit to following this program to see your awesome abs within 90 days. If you want results fast then be sure to incorporate Liv Sxinney and Go into your daily supplements for maximum definition. Having a shredded six pack isn't only attractive but it's essential for optimal health & fitness.

Do yourself a favor and resolve to get in the best shape of your life. Focus your attention on loving every aspect of your body. Each day do something relaxing & enjoyable, take time to pamper yourself. By balancing the body, mind and spirit you'll be more confident, feel healthier, and live a happier life. Believe that you can have an awesome six pack. If you stay true to yourself and do my Six Pack Abs program you'll have fantastic results in no time. So stay positive, eat clean & exercise daily to get in the best shape of your life! Believe in yourself Dreams really do come true!
