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!

Apple Ginger Fizz for Fall

  The kids deserve a special drink for the fall besides apple cider. This is a great fall mocktail with a beautiful flavor combination. Not just for the kiddos. This makes 1 drink What  you'll need: 3 oz still apple cider 1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice 6 mint leaves 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar Pinch powdered cinnamon 3 oz ginger ale Create: Place apple cider, lime juice, cinnamon, apple cider vinegar and a few ice cubes into a cocktail shaker. If you don't have a shaker, anything with a tight lid will work, such as a mason jar or drink bottle. Clap the mint together in your hands to release the scent, and add to the shaker. Shake for about 20-30 seconds until ingredients are combined. Pour into an ice filled glass and top with ginger ale. Stir gently, garnish with mint, dried citrus or a cinnamon stick, and serve.

Fall Simmering Potpourri

I love the smell of fall, I even like fall itself.  I just don't like what follows... winter!  However I love walking in my home and smelling  the fall scents that are so warm and inviting. Making this simmering potpourri is extremely easy! What you'll need: Tangerine or orange peels Cloves Cinnamon sticks or ground cinnamon Vanilla extract Pumpkin pie spice Water Small crockpot, saucepan or tea kettle You can choose how much you want to put in  of what, there really is no magic amount. I normally put  in more of my favorite scents. If using a tea kettle  or a sauce pan keep in mind you will have to keep  adding water to it. If you use a crockpot you  will not have to keep adding water and you can keep  it on even when you're asleep. Some other ideas that you can add are: Apple juice (instead of water) Cranberries Nutmeg Anise (one of my favorites) Dried fruit Coffee beans Have you ever made a simmering potpourri pot?  What do you normal...
