Got flabby arms? Ugggh. I know exactly how you feel. Used to have them. But help is right here, right now. In this workout, the focus is on improving your biceps, front of the shoulders, and the sides of the arms. It’s a quick upper body workout that will get your muscles burning fast to get rid of flabby arms. Beautiful arms are yours for the taking! It’s just up to you to take the time to put in the work. Now let’s do this…

Use light to medium weights for this workout. If you do not have dumbbells, grab a couple of soup cans and get to work. Remember to stand tall. Do not hunch over or swing your body for momentum to lift the weights (that’s cheating). Do not hold your breath — remember to breath in and out. This workout is designed with minimal rest periods for an optimal muscle burn, but listen to your body and take a break if you absolutely need to.

FLABBY ARMS EXERCISES

In the video…

  1. Alternating bicep curls
  2. 45-degree bicep curls
  3. Scoop-ups
  4. Upright rows: up quick, down slow
  5. Upright rows: up slow, down quick
  6. Alternating 45-degree bicep curls

For impressive results that will make you darn proud of yourself, and to knock the socks off of your soon-to-be admirers, complete one to two rounds of this workout 2-3 times per week. To get rid of your flabby arms even faster, remember to keep your carbs in check. Promise yourself not to go overboard on food in general, but especially those carbs. Save those extra carbs for your splurge day instead.

Check back soon for a workout that targets those batwings — the back of the arms. A triceps workout is coming!

I hope you’re hungry! Here are a few of my favorite low carb breakfast options that I enjoy on the days that I’m not doing intermittent fasting. Sure, I still enjoy my traditional big breakfasts, but I try to limit those high carb breakfasts to special occasions only.

LOW CARB BREAKFAST IDEAS

PALEO PANCAKES: I am sooo loving it. Low carb paleo pancake mix won’t bloat you! The full paleo pancakes recipe is right here. You can have this comfort food and still lose weight. Paleo pancakes steer away from the white flour carbs that come from fattening grains without sacrificing the mouthwatering delight that a plate of pancakes delivers. This mix uses almond, tapioca and coconut flours instead. There are plenty of different paleo pancake mixes to choose from.

VEGGIE OMELET MUFFINS: Holy shizzle, I love these omelet muffins! One egg equals approximately one muffin. Dice up your veggies and add them to your desired number of beaten eggs. Also add salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder. The mixture should be thick. Spray your muffin tin and scoop in the mixture. Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 22-25 minutes. Omelet muffins reheat very well, and they aren’t just for breakfast. These are great for anytime of day: breakfast, lunch, dinner or snacking!

BACON & EGGS ON THE GO: The is the ultimate definition of low carb breakfast with easy meal prep. Yes, you can have your bacon and eggs even if you’re in a hurry. Prep everything the night before by hard boiling the eggs and easily cooking the bacon in the oven (350 degrees for approximately 10-12 minutes). Pack it up in your containers, and the next day you can feed your tummy in a hurry. If you like your bacon warm, it does reheat nicely in the microwave. Store the cooked bacon for up to 3 days in the fridge (be sure to wrap tightly). Boiled eggs will last up to one week in the refrigerator.

How to Get Rid of Cellulite: Full Workout for Butt & Thighs

cellulite

Got cellulite? We all do on some level, but you CAN do something about it.

Although there are strange methods out there involving coffee scrubs and dry brushing your body (whaaaaa!!), the absolute surefire way to get rid of and reduce the appearance of those cottage cheese thighs and bum is to firm up your muscles. Targeting these areas to become lifted and firmer will smooth things out and make cellulite a non factor for you.

In this video there are 4 targeted moves that are guaranteed to make your legs and butt look great if you are consistent with your muscle-building workouts. Let’s get it!

ANTI CELLULITE EXERCISES IN THIS VIDEO

  1. Booty Pump: Warm up for the entire lower body — front the legs, back of legs and butt
  2. Hydrant Kicks: Targets the butt and outer thighs
  3. Whirlwinds: Targets the inner thighs
  4. Bridge Pulses: Targets the butt and back of thighs

WHY ARE THESE EXERCISES SO IMPORTANT?

Cardio alone won’t do it. Yes, you will lose weight doing cardio, but it does very little to strengthen your muscles to give them that defined, toned, lifted look. Don’t delay getting started with your strength training. I don’t want to catch you eating chips on the couch when you could be doing your booty pump warm up. heheheheee

YOUR FOOD CHOICES ARE ALSO KEY

You don’t want to put in all the effort of a good workout, just to train wreck yourself with bad eating choices. I fully support the concept planned splurge meals, but your eating choices need to be kept on track the other 85% of the time. If you need help to get on track with your eating, start here with this video:

Tummy Tuck Workout to Flatten Belly Pooch

After having 4 kids, (three of those gremlins were by c-section), I got a tummy tuck consult that went absolutely horrible. You can scroll down for the video link on what happened, but in a nutshell, the doctor was a big time jerk. I left his office frustrated, and just kept working out.

These are some of the exercises I did to reduce my belly pooch and tighten my abs without a tummy tuck. I still do these exercises to maintain my core. It takes less than 10 mins, 3 times per week to cinch in and tighten your lower abs and lower belly pooch. The second important key to getting rid of belly pudge is to clean up your eating habits. At the end of this video I give you my most important tip to get rid of the stomach pudge through dietary tweaks. 

TUMMY TUCK WORKOUT EXERCISES

  1. Standing ab tilt  
  2. Chair Leg lifts 
  3. Hand-to-foot Pillow Pass 
  4. Scissors
  5. Toe taps

You will need a pillow and chair for this workout. Do your best with these exercises. You may not be that great at first, but just work up to your ability and push towards your potential. Do not begin any postpartum workouts until you’ve received your doctor’s approval.

Snacktime! Buttery Parmesan Toast Recipe

Say hello to Buttery Parmesan Toast. Oh meee oh my-my-my. I threw this together in a pinch when my stomachs were demanding an afternoon snack attack. It’s so darn simple to make and extremely satisfying.

parmesan toast

The yummy goal here is to have as little prep as possible, thus, nothing else has been added but the following…

BUTTERY PARMESAN TOAST DIRECTIONS

  1. Get your Food For Life Ezekiel Bread toasted up (I used their Sprouted Whole Grain variety)
  2. Add da’ buttahs to the toast
  3. Sprinkle with a wee bit of salt
  4. Go to town with the parmesan

Heck yesss. This right here did the trick. The salty-buttery-cheesy combo surely hit the spot, and it take less than 2 minutes to make! It’s perfect for anytime of day, and it’s something even a picky kid would gobble up.

When I posted this to my Instagram someone suggested making the toast even more fancy by adding avocado and/or tomatoes. That is definitely a yes move. Doesn’t that sound delicious, too?

Because I’m low carb for the sake of keeping my mid-section slimmed down, I am very careful about choosing wisely with my carb intake. I’m not going to waste it on just any ole’ carb. But this slice of toast is royalty.

How would you whip up your own version of Buttery Parmesan Toast?
