The "Workout" Plan to Fitness
Well as some of you may know I'm kind of a Bravo TV junkie. It's funny how I started to just watch "Top Chef" on Bravo and how I've expanded to "Workout", "Step It Up", and "Make Me a Supermodel". OK, I admit that the last two I haven't really followed all season but do watch the reruns of them on the weekends.
So I'm watching this "Workout" show which features Sky Sports and Spa owner Jackie Warner and her crew, and I'm thinking to myself, "wow, these girls are hot". Then...I come to find out that majority of them are lesbians. Don't get me wrong, gender identity is a thing of the past and is so mainstream that sexual preference really doesn't bother me but...Rebecca is soooo HOT for a lesbian. You know what I mean. Most people have this image of lesbians being kinda "guy-like" in appearance, but these "Sky" girls are very pretty and with the exception of Jackie...feminine.
Anyway, this isn't a post about sexual orientation or lesbians for that matter, it's about fitness. I have been lucky that most of my life my body has sustained a quick metabolic rate. Unfortunately as I get older it's being to show signs of..*ahem*...rust. So my weekly regime has been bicycling around the neighborhood about 3 times a week, working out with resistance equipment about 3 times also, and throwing in some yoga for streching purposes every now and then. BTW, I do my resistance training at home with a "Bow Flex" like machine. I did have a killer membership with 24 hour Fitness but canceled it due to the crowds and attitudes there...but...that's another story. So I try to maintain this level of fitness but I don't seem to be able to fit into my old pants, I don't look fat, it's just that my original pants don't fit. I know, people say maybe it's muscle, who knows, maybe it is but I'm still gonna try and fit into those old pair of jeans. That's besides the point. A level of fitness should be maintained for health reasons, and it is shows like "Workout" and "The Biggest Loser", even "Ultimate Fighter" and some pro-wrestling shows have inspired me to keep motivated.
So you wanna try and get fit too? Here's a physically easy way to do it. If you stick to this plan you'll lose weight without even excersizing, but you must stick to the meal plan. If you do excersize, you'll just reap faster results. Keep in mind that this is geared toward my weight and you can adjust the amounts with simple math to find your weighted amount. BTW, this is Hawaii so it's based on rice for carbs, utilize what is common in your area. Here it is...

I hope your diet considers the amount of sodium intake ... low or no sodium will get rid of that retained water in your diet.. Try viewing the commercial for hip hop abs... i do a version to fit my needs and it does work..I don't see too mant vegetables in this diet...I know that mini meals are the way to go but shouldn't it be balanced?
