Lose Belly Fat





It is a known fact that when you exercise losing that belly fat
is the last thing to go! Guys even have a harder time than ladies
when it comes to the belly. I recently had someone request
how to lose belly fat without situps and crunches because
it is bothering her back. I actually find the same issue.  

First thing... cario, cardio and more cardio,
extra exercises you can do...

Burpees
Mountain climbers

Turkish Get-Up (this one I have never heard of so I will
explain how to do this one)
You first need a kettlebell. Hold the kettlebell by the
handle with both hands, lie on your side in a fetal position.
Roll onto your back and press the kettlebell up toward
the ceiling with both hands until the weight is stable on
one loaded side. Release your free arm and free leg to a
45 degree angle with your palm facing down. Slide the
heel of the loaded side closer to your butt to firmly grip the floor.

Pushing through the foot on the floor, punch the kettlebell
up with the loaded arm and roll onto your free forearm.
Don't shrug your shoulder toward your ear with the
supporting side. Be sure to keep your chest wide open.
Straighten the elbow on the ground and lift yourself
up to a seated position. Weave your front leg through
to the back, to protect your knees, your shin on the
back leg should be perpendicular to your shin on the front leg.

Perfectly align your arms: wrist over elbow, shoulder
over elbow over wrist.
Raise your torso to make your upper body erect. Swivel your
back knee so that your back shin is parallel with your front shin.
Get a grip on the floor with your back toes, then take a
deep breath and stand up.

That is a lot to read and try to figure out how to do,
if you don't understand it, look up the exercise
in a YouTube video.

Medicine Ball Burpees
Sprawls
Side to side medicine ball slams
Overhead medicine ball slams
Russian twists
Bosu ball planks (or traditional planks)
Running on an incline (treadmill)
Rowing machine (most gyms have these)
Walking
Yoga

These are all the top workouts listed, they have
shown to even have a better effect than situps and crunches.
If you don't know how to do a certain exercise,
YouTube is your best friend.

You want to start off with as many reps as you can do
and keep bumping those reps up when you do these.
The more you do the more you lose, you can do these
exercises every day!

Depression Sucks!

Dear Diary....Depression Sucks,      I have it marked in the "About Me" section that I am Bipolar. I was diagnosed Manic Depressive when I was 15, and then at a later date it turned too Bipolar Type 2. What is Bipolar 2 Disorder? It is a form of mental illness, it is similar to Bipolar 1 except with moods cycling between high and low over time. Most of the time the "up" moods never reach full blown mania (I have had that twice in my life). The less intense elevated moods in bipolar 2 are called hypomanic episodes. Most people that have Bipolar 2 suffer more from depression, which is where the term mani depression comes from. Depressive episodes can last weeks, months and (rarely) years. I have never let being bipolar define me but I am not going to lie it has affected a lot in my life. Especially when I am in the "manic" state. Again was only twice in my life but when it happened everything durring that period of time changed! ...
