DAY EIGHT
STAY FOCUSED! Around this time we tend to lose focus on our body and health goals and start to slowly slid back into old habits. Keep that motivation going with a strong focus on what you want to look and feel like at the end of this challenge. This will keep you on track and successful in reaching your goals.
After 20-minutes of cardio do the following…
Todays exercises are:
Repeat the strength exercises 3 times from top to bottom.
KICK OFF Tip: We all lead busy lives. Most of us have kids to care for, a husband, and work outside of the home. Any excuse to not eat healthy and get fit is just that, an excuse. If its really important to you, you will make the time. If your husband and kids still want burgers, mac ‘n cheese, lasagna, or what ever else they desire, just make yourself a big salad and let them eat what they usually eat. To set yourself up to be successful at night, make a HUGE salad for lunch and save half of it for dinner so there is less prep work for you. A baked sweet potato takes minutes to make in a steamer bag in the microwave oven (BAKED IN THE OVEN is best yet I understand time restraints as well). The best approach would be to upgrade your family’s dinners gradually so that you make a great big raw salad and fresh fish and vegetables. If they insist on mixing their starches and proteins, then make a few baked potatoes or some brown rice or pasta for them. Again, thats not a big effort. Make plenty for the group, and then combine accordingly for yourself. Your family’s palate will change gradually, making it easier all the time to find dinners that make everyone happy (and make mommy’s load lighter, in all aspects)!
