I love Kettlebell workouts!  You can get a great total body workout in a short amount of time.  You will definitely be feeling this one tomorrow!  Such a great leg and core workout!

Especially when doing Kettlebell movements remember to keep good proper form and warm up before and stretch after you exercise!  You don’t even have to have an actual kettlebell weight, you can use a dumbbell too if you don’t own a kettlebell.

I love to workout with weights! I have added  this routine to my workouts for a few weeks now, and I think it is great!  I use 8lb weights, but you can use 3,5 or even 10 lbs if you want to.  These five basic exercises target all the areas of your arms. It is a great way to have toned strong arms!

One of the main reasons people give that they can’t workout is no time!  Well this quick cardio needs no equipment, doesn’t require a lot of room, and it only takes 10 minutes!! You definitely have 10 minutes to spare!  This one is quick easy and a lot of fun!

Today has not been a good nutrition day for me.  To be honest, recently I have not been eating as healthy as I should be.  I let the holiday candies get me very time!  Easter candy is especially a major weakness for me! I have also let afternoon snacking sneak back in, and that has always been a major downfall for me!

While I am no longer actively trying to lose weight, I still need to eat the right way not only in order to keep all the weight off, but also, more importantly,  in order to be healthy!  Since I have been on maintenance I have not gained any weight, but I easily could if I continue to eat poorly and allow myself to snack.

I have not been as strict about keeping a food journal.  I have to admit, journaling really keeps me accountable for what I eat which keeps me on track!   So, I have decided that I am going to have to have to start food journaling again.  It is tedious and time consuming, but it is so effective!

You may not realize it, but flexibility is just as important for you as strength and cardio!  Sometimes I am so sore from a previous intense workout that I need to focus for a few days on flexibility and stretching.  This is a quick 10 minute flexibility workout by (my favorite) Jessica Smith!

I love to workout with weights!  One thing I have learned from all my working out with Jillian (remember we are best friends, she just doesn’t know it)  is that compound movements are much more effective than just isolating one muscle group.  This series of dumbbell exercises will give you several effective compound movements.  I like to use 8lb weights, but 3lbs or 5 lbs is great as well!   You can always push the up button by increasing the weight.

Start with one set of each move. As you get stronger,try to do the a circuit three or four times. After six weeks you can expect to see improvements in strength, muscle tone, and endurance. You will be shocked at just how strong you are!  As always…No excuses! Just do it!

Slow Progress is Better Than NO Progress

Slow progress is better than NO progress. | lookingjoligood.wordpress.com

Sometimes we hear about someone who is losing a bunch of weight really fast on a fad diet, it may seem like it isn’t fair. While you are doing things the right way and seeing little losses and slow progress, it can get discouraging.  Don’t give up!  Often with good healthy lifestyle changes the progress seems to be slow going.  But anything worth doing is worth doing right!  While some of these diets seem to give high weight lose quickly, often it is in an unhealthy way!  If you want to have a long healthy life, you have to make permanent changes, not just quick fad diet changes. Your overall heath is much more important than being “skinny”!

Slow progress is better than NO progress. Fad diets and quick fixes are not permanent! Only good healthy lifestyle changes will last!  You and your health are worth the time and effort!
