Jumpstart 4 Women {day twenty three}

Each day we are given a New Start and how we choose to live is always our choice. Today I would like you to make the choice to be happy and successful living healthy and fit. Right now, see yourself going throughout your day living free of food addictions and getting your workout on…..close your eyes…see it….and make the shift! Do you feel different? Does your attitude towards food and exercise change a little? Much of our success in life is based on our attitude. WE CHOOSE OUR HAPPINESS always. No one else can do this for us.  So today…..BE GREAT, BE SUCCESSFUL, and BE HAPPY! 🙂 

 

Todays exercises are:

 

Frog Hop: In a low squat position, with legs wide and feet turned out slightly, Hop forward 4 times and then backwards 4 times.  Repeat 4 more times (forward and backward) Modifications: Plea Squat for 20 reps: Stand and step feet out wider than shoulder width apart and turn both feet out.  Dip down until both knees are over each foot and return back to the starting position.  

Hamstring Curl on Ball: Do 20 reps

Push Up to Side Plank:  Do a push up. On the up phase of the push up, lift one arm up and turn the body to the side plank position.   Repeat again on the other side. Do 10 reps (5 on each side).  Modifications: On Knees

 After 30-minutes of cardio….Repeat the strength exercises 3 times from top to bottom.

Kick Off  Tip: Be Prepared! Preparation is the key to being healthy. First, make sure you always have healthy foods in the house always.  Green lemonade is a must have on my list and you can always find greens and vegetables to make a salad in my fridge, avocados for snacking, and a sweet potato if I’m wanting something more.  When “out and about” carry herbal tea and stevia, carrots, sliced up veggies like cucumbers and green peppers, and/or a green apple always hits the spot. 

Todays Meal Plan:

Upon Waking: Warm Water with Lemon

First thing in stomach: Green Lemonade 

(note: if you are a coffee drinker you are going to love our TBFC Coffee and can have this at this time) 

15-30 minutes later: Grapefruit (as much as you like)

Take in a Probiotic: Kombucha is great!

2-3 hours later….

Lunch: Kristie’s Favorite Avocado Soup  

Dessert: Herbal Tea with 1-2 squares 80% Dark Chocolate

2-3 hours later: Have more of what you had for lunch or Green Lemonade

Dinner: Start with Raw Goat Cheese or any Raw Cheese and have with sliced tomatoes and a glass of red wine if desired. This will curb your appetite and relax you as you prepared dinner. 

Main Course: Egg Salad TBFC Style

Dessert: Herbal Tea with 1-2 squares 80% Dark Chocolate

 

For the last 5 days of this program make a positive effort to fast until noon before having your Green Lemonade.  This kind of ‘mini fasting’ allows the digestive system to clear any residual digestive matter, preventing even the smallest pile up.  Contrary to what you may be thinking, this will leave you feeling highly energized.  And no, this does not slow down your metabolism!  When your body is in a state of digestive rest everything actually speeds up.
