I found this online somewhere and love the message. You can be the smartest or the hardest worker but the number one thing you need to be successful is your attitude! 🙌🙌
If you believe in yourself and whatever you are trying to do – nothing can stop you! 👊👏
So no more negative or discouraging thoughts🙈🙉🙊change your attitude💃💃 and change your outcome!😎😎
This question is tossed around all the time. Often times you here females say they want to lose weight but are scared to lift weights because they fear they will get “too big.”
Females don’t produce the same testosterone levels as men so you can lift and lift but it’s damn near impossible for you to bulk up like a huge bodybuilder. So from now on don’t even allow yourself to think that!
Plain and simple: the more muscle you have the faster your metabolism works in a resting state.
Therefore the more muscle mass you have the more calories you burn in a day at a resting heart rate.
Example: Man A and Man B weigh 175. Man A has 10% body fat, Man B 30% body fat. Man A has less body fat (more muscle) will burn more calories naturally in a resting state than Man B with more body fat (less muscle). Dont worry about the number on the scale – worry about your body fat and lean muscle mass.
Ok–youre not feeling it… here’s another example
Take a look at this picture:
A pound of muscle is a lot smaller than a pound of fat – even if you aren’t losing “weight” you can (and will) change your body through gaining muscle!
Focus on FAT LOSS and not weight loss. You may or may not lose a few pounds, but gaining lean muscle and losing body fat will definitely result in you liking what you see in the mirror!
Keep your head up 🙆☝and stop looking👀👀 down at the scale!
Look in the mirror and see how your clothes fit :):)💪👊
We all get into a routine or pick exercises we like but the way to results is to push yourself to a new limit! 👊
Many gyms offer all sorts of classes, no harm in trying one out. You may find a new passion! If you don’t like it, try a different one. ✔✔ Whether it’s yoga, pilates, kick boxing or a spin class the variation will target your muscles in a different way. 💪💪💪
I did my first spin class today and it was tough🔥🔥🔥. Am I gonna go back? Definitely. I’ll try to improve and get better each time. Don’t think you’ll be a pro right away, work into the class and I bet you’ll see the results in your body and the way you feel!
Here are some moves I did to get a more defined shoulder! I was so worried of having fat arm in pictures! 🙈🙈😯
These moves a few times a week for a month and I bet you’ll see the results your looking for! 💍 💍 💍 💍💍💍💍
7s:
front raise
lateral raise
standing rev fly
Start with light weight 5 lbs dbs do 7 reps of each move for 4 sets
Remember to check with your doctor before performing any exercises!
Here’s just a little reminder that food is fuel for your body! Be kind to your body and fuel it with good nutritious things. You’ll feel better and over time crave healthier options over something fast and cheap. You are what you eat, right? So be healthy not fast and cheap :):)

10 health benefits of kale from http://www.mindbodygreen.com
1. Kale is low in calorie, high in fiber and has zero fat. One cup of kale has only 36 calories, 5 grams of fiber and 0 grams of fat. It is great for aiding in digestion and elimination with its great fiber content. It’s also filled with so many nutrients, vitamins, folate and magnesium as well as those listed below.
A healthy lifestyle is more fun with friends! Try to get a group a work to walk during lunch or a group gym session after work instead of happy hour!
