How to lose 2-3lbs of body fat per week (part II)

OK, here is part 2 of how to lose 2-3lbs of body fat per week.

So now that you have your foods set into place, you shouldn’t fall in the trap of overeating bigger sized high fat and sugary type meals…..So

Step #1 – Get a sheet of paper or a journal and a pen. Then make sure you go to a room where won’t have any distractions or get disturbed. This will take about 10 minutes alone time. Right down the specific goals that you want for you body? And then you should review and write these goals down daily. Next, I want you to imagine yourself wearing that favorite outfit. Think about how you’re going to feel when you’re in. What compliments you’ll be hearing from people? Who is looking at you and noticing you? Are you getting compliments from people who don’t really ever give them to you? Write down exactly what it is like to wear your outfit, who you’re with, how you feel and what you are doing. Be as specific as possible and write it down in the present tense, as if you were right in the moment not the future. Take about 10 minutes to get this done.

Step #2 – Here’s your 4-Minute Tabata Workout and the squat. To make sure you get moving today, I’m just going to give you a simple yet effective and intense 4 minute workout. You will only need to perform one movement. The squat. Stand with your feet shoulder width apart, drive your hips back (almost as if you’re going to sit in a chair), put your weight over your heels (not your toes…meaning the heels should not raise off the floor) and sit back and down. Try to get your thighs parallel to the ground, if that’s not possible, just go with the range of motion you have, then drive your heels through the floor and i stand back up. Repeat this same movement as many times as you can maintaining good form.

Here’s the circuit that can be performed anywhere and anytime:

Squat as many reps as you can for 20 seconds

Rest for 10 seconds

Perform 8 rounds. This comes to only 4 minutes.

Now here’s what I want you to do. Your goal is to do as many squats as you can in each 20 second interval. You lowest within the 8 rounds is the number you’ll want to keep. So count your reps for each 20 second interval, and each round, look to to beat that number. Whatever your low number is will be your score.

Then record your score in the Comments section and we’ll look to build improvement from there!

Have a fantastic weekend
