News — revenge body challenge

Your mobility has EVERYTHING to do with not only how you move and feel … but with the quality of life you have. That’s why this month I’m going to be talking a lot about your muscles and why it’s SO IMPORTANT to keep them strong and supple (beyond just how they make you look!).

I’ve got a delicious protein-rich lunch idea that you’ll actually look forward to eating! Who doesn’t love burritos? This recipe is better than takeout AND will save you $$$. PLUS … you can modify it based on your food preferences. The base recipe is vegan but you can add cheese for vegetarian, or even chicken or ground beef if you eat meat.

The other day I went live in my weight loss for busy moms group on Facebook with a mini “master class” all about macros. I explained and gave action steps to help with this style of flexible eating to help get you the results you want. It works whether you want to gain weight, lose weight, maintain your weight, or try clean eating – without following a strict menu plan. It’s called macro-based eating. It might seem a little complicated at first, but once you get the hang of it, it’s AMAZING!

 That means workouts that build your muscles – whether it’s old-school bodybuilding workouts, or fitness workouts that include weights – have a double-whammy effect!   Not only are you burning calories WHILE you’re doing them, but you get a BONUS burn in the future as you build muscle! Pretty cool, right?  Beyond your workouts, it’s important to get enough protein (between 10 and 35% of your daily calories) to help build, repair, and maintain your muscle.  Want to get even MORE tactical?
