We still get confused over how and what or what time to eat!
Just want to remind you guys that when we give you a nutrition plan with a day filled of food, that means you need to eat ALL of the food!
As far as I can think back bodybuilders have always been the leanest people!
1. They are scheduling their food intake no longer than 3 hours apart ( some even setting the alarm clock to interrupt sleep and getting another meal in)
2. They are keeping all 3 macronutrience  in their diet: protein, carbohydrates, and good fats
3. They are eating super clean non processed foods
Sometimes we get clients that will cut out all carbs from their plan, yet wondering why they do not achieve the desired results!!
Carbohydrates are being digested starting from your mouth while chewing and traveling through your digestive system entering the blood stream turned into glycogen !
Mostly they deliver fuel to your body!
Eating to many carbs will be stored as fat for reserved fuel supply!
Eating not enough carbohydrates will leave you with muscle loss !
Your body has the ability to convert your muscle tissue to glycogen and burn it for fuel…
Protein is very important to replace lost muscle ( catabolism and anabolism keeps happening in your body every day)!
Not enough protein in your diet will keep you gaining muscle or even keeping your muscle!!!
Our whole body is made out of protein, including your bones….
Not eating enough protein can also cause loss of bone, hair, nails, skin….
Eat to much and it can be toxic to your kidneys and even your liver!
To much protein will also turn into fat as everything else overindulged 😉
Good fat ( from avocado, peanut butter, olive oil)
Can help you with muscle gain or maintaining while you are leaning out)
Fats help with your hair, skin, nails, but also with your pain receptors, balance your hormons, and keep you from feeling hungry!
Get your fats from vegetable sources or fish!
To much even from good fats as everything else will turn into fat and weight gain!
Don’t forget your vegetables 🙂
Eat them in all colors to provide your body with excellent nutrition….
Fruit is a simple sugar and besides the high nutrition they will cause weight gain if eaten in abundance 🙂
Chose foods in their natural state!
Don’t eat processed!
Get creative with your meals…
Don’t skip a food on your list !!!

Okay … I’ve been slacking as usual!
Now I am 10 weeks out and behind…..
What is my down fall?
Not exercise ( I love to work out and even cardio)
Not my food ( I always eat clean even while going out)
I am using a glass of wine to calm me down at night!!!
Shouldn’t be that bad, right?
Well it is if you are doing it every day…
Also I have a tendency to overload myself with work ( that I love) not leaving me enough time to do what I need to do!
So what is my plan?
I will start the week with depleting!
Yep, that’s right….
Water overload and carb depleting !!!
I made sure to get all my workouts in so that I will be left with only cardio to do for the next 3 days….
Today I will cook all my bland food and pack it!
I will weigh myself every morning ( yukk) and make pictures or my abs today and in 3 days again!
Yes, that’s how fast this works!!!
No more excuses, no more slacking!!!
Today I finished my leg and shoulder workout….
Next workout: Thursday ( carbohydrate loading after depleting)
Let’s do this :)))

Cayenne Pepper is a powerful spice!
It is known to have stopped heartattackes, induces cancer cell death, stops internal bleeding….
There have been reports of people being able to stop heartattackes by digesting cayenne pepper within seconds!
Cayenne also helps with respiratory congestion and opens bronchials…
Cayenne can improve digestion, cramping, stomach aches, bloating and help with cleansing the body!!!
Removal of toxins and has amazing health benefits in the body!!!
Add cayenne pepper to your first aid kit and use it as antiseptic and antibiotic ….
Heels cuts and burns!
There is truth behind the bible and God telling us ” everything you need i have provided to you on this earth”
The body is designed to heal itself!
We just need to give it the right (natural) nutrition to do so 🙂

So funny ( to me) is when people compare active and static flexibiliy ….
Two completely different subjects !
One ( active) is to activate the nervous system!
Recruit more and better muscle fibers to perform the task ahead!!!
Static flexiblility is to shut down the nervous system to keep from spasm or from creating imbalance in the body!
Both equally important, but active flexibility serves better before performance 🙂
Inhances performance and can help increase muscle and activity!!!
Static flexibility will stop the nervous system from being activated and is just as important!!!
Keeps the body from imbalance, puts muscle back into position or allignment, and keeps injury away 🙂
Do not neglect flexibility!!!
It will keep you active years to come :)))
