22 April 08 05:27 AM | Corinne | with no comments

Today we're going to talk about cardio and the biggest mistake I see make with it: doing the same thing over and over again yielding little to no results. Changing up cardio is just as important as switching your foods around and attacking your muscles...

Why Track Cardio to Burn Fat?
14 January 08 03:08 PM | Corinne | 8 comment(s)

It takes intensity in EVERYTHING you do to lose weight and burn fat. You need to journal with intensity, strength train with intensity, eat with focused intensity, and do your cardio with MAD INTENSITY. The key word: INTENSITY. A concept I have recently...

Wow, that was an amazing experience. If you ever get a chance to go you should. Talk about a motivating weekend filled with lots of butt busting workouts (one motto is: pop-squat your a** off! and they mean it), and diet information. I learned so much...

Hello Arms!
21 October 07 02:47 PM | Trish | with no comments

Today I did my arms workout and it went good. My left arm is still so weak since my December Ulnar Nerve injury. Anyway, when I was doing my curls today I had to use 5lbs on the left arm. I guess that nerve must effect the bicep firing mechanism. Anyway...

Legs in the Morning and Cardio in the Evening
21 October 07 02:45 PM | Trish | with no comments

I haven’t done this in awhile, but I split my routine today because I woke up at the crack of dawn and couldn’t go back to sleep. All I had time to do was knock one or the other out and since my weights routines are so intense I decided I should do it...

Sunday and It’s a New Week

The definition is starting to pop on my upper body. Legs are looking better, but with my loose skin they may always be a mess. I’m very happy with my upper body though. Looks like the new training and eating is really working. I took off yesterday. Business...

Listen to Your Body When You Diet and Exercise
21 October 07 02:41 PM | Trish | with no comments

Today I woke up sort of sore and just feeling a little sluggish. After coffee and breakfast I decided I had too much to do today to try and force a huge leg workout and cardio session that would likely leave me washed out for the rest of the day. Using...

Chest Day and Treadmill with Core Exercises
21 October 07 02:37 PM | Trish | with no comments

Ahhhh…chest day. I think this is my least favorite body part to train mainly because I am so weak in this area and the exercises are just grueling. The only way I know to get past my stinking-thinking about chest day is to set a goal. My goal is to do...

This is a question I hear often and one that I had to answer for myself this morning. Last night I had a sore throat and general ill feeling. You know, nasty taste in the mouth, tired, achy, sore throat; just not feeling well. The decision to carry on...

Inches…the True Measure of How Our Bodies Are Changing
20 October 07 10:46 PM | Trish | 1 comment(s)

I endlessly discuss how you cannot live by the scale. It is such an inaccurate way to see weightloss success. 1. It doesn’t tell you what type of weight you are losing. Plenty of people who burn, burn, burn on the cardio neglect to add in strength training...
