Training Celebrities

Fitness Tips for Busy People

The California-born has shared some advice for people who cannot find time to exercise due to their busy schedules. You should realize that you can workout when and where ever you can. It is not vital to hit a gym. If you are too busy, you can spend 15 to 30 minutes in exercising. No matter what the amount is, exercise should always be a priority for you. If you don’t make it a preference, you will find an excuse to not do it. You are only serious about exercise when you stop finding excuses. When you do, you will definitely see results.

Fitness Advice for Fans

The Nashville-based trainer recently shared the workout and diet advice mentioned over here:

  • No Alcohol

Though you may think that having a few drinks with friends or on a special occasion is fine, it’s not. You should break this habit in order to become fitter.

  • Eat Clean & Move

If you wish to be stronger, you need to eat clean and keep moving to get lean. You can buy a fitness tracker and get moving. Staying active all day, even walking will lead to more healthy choices. Also, if you move a lot, your chances of eating due to boredom would reduce.

  • Try Tabata Training

When you need to get a great workout in a short period of time, you should try the Tabata exercise. She has even written a book The 4×4 Diet that lets you know some of the great moves that you can fit into the timed exercise regime. Though one Tabata would last only for four minutes, you will be winded after the time ends. If not, you need to push yourself harder.

  • Live a Healthy Lifestyle

It is a fact that cleanses and fad diets can help you to lose weight, but they are not a permanent solution. You should learn to live a healthy lifestyle that is doable for you forever. Healthy foods must never be gross, complicated or bland. You must learn to keep them simple and delicious.

  • Top Three Moves

The USANA Health Sciences Fitness ambassador thinks that squats, lunges, and push-ups are three awesome moves that can work your whole body if you do them right. They can be modified easily for different levels too. As all these exercises can be done anywhere and anytime, you won’t end up making excuses not to do them.
