“Abs are made in the kitchen”……. ”80% diet, 20% training”……
These are common refrains… and they are SO true! Many people think if they exercise, they can eat whatever they want and still “get abs”. But the truth is, your diet is a key determining factor in the speed and quality of results you see! If you want to “get abs”, build muscle and/or lose fat, you need to eat like it!
Everyone has abs… but if you have a layer of fat over the top of them, you’re not going to be able to see them! No matter how many crunches you do, you will NOT be able to spot-reduce the fat on top of your tummy. It’s a biological fact. If you want to get rid of the fat on top, you must lower your OVERALL body fat. That doesn’t mean you need to starve yourself! In fact, that really will only result in a skinny fat appearance and you will still have that layer of body fat over the top of them!
Lower your body fat by eating clean in a slight caloric deficit, lifting weights and doing cardio! It’s very simple! =)
alright, for the person who said they wanted to see a routine from her book. i love this one, and do it whenever i’m leading my own practice because it’s pretty fun. :) it’s for toning your whole body.
*in the standing split squat picture it just says underneath: once your in the pose, exhale back to standing split.
I have this book, but I don’t use it enough. I really need to scan and print some routines.

Needed:
-1 Flatout Flatbread wrap [original] (100 calories)
Lay the wrap out on a piece of tinfoil that is lightly sprayed with cooking spray.
-1 tablespoon of pizza sauce (~10 calories) [I used 1 tablespoon but I am not a big fan of pizza sauce, it is typically low calorie so use what’ll make you happy]
Spread the sauce equally over the wrap.
-1 cup of spinach (~7 calories) [more/less depending on preference]
Lay the spinach directly on top of the sauce, evenly if you can.
-1/4 cup of mushrooms (~4 calories) [more/less depending on preference]
Lay directly on the spinach.
-1/3 cup of mozarella cheese (~104 calories)
Sprinkle lightly and equally over spinach and mushrooms.
Cook at 425 degrees for 12-15 minutes! :) Total of ~225 calories.
And the popcorn is Trader Joe’s White Cheddar Corn Puffs (maybe I should’ve put popcorn in quotes!). One serving is 2.5 cups [pictured] and 140 calories. Tastes light and delicious, just like white cheddar popcorn but without the kernels getting stuck in your teeth ;)
Total calories around 365!
This was inspired by another Flatout wrap pizza I saw however I can’t find the original source due to having blacked out my blog to protest SOPA. However, I made my own ‘recipe’ I just copied the idea of using a Flatout wrap.
ENJOY! <3
ETA: Final product and ‘popcorn’.
APPLES
“An apple a day keeps the doctor away”. We’ve all heard it, what does that mean exactly? Apples are fantastic for your heart as well as for keeping your bowel movements regular. And lets face it. If things are “moving” along smoothly,…
Are you ready? :)
This plan has 3 levels! Let me know when you complete level 3, I’ll probably congratulate you by posting it to my blog. DON’T CHEAT AND DON’T POST TO YOUR OWN BLOG! (You may re-blog, just don’t take this and post it as your own please!)
