Weekly Challenge: Booty Murder! 1000 Lunges. Crackin’ The Whip & Giving Away Undies!

fitvillains:

Fresh off the heels of 1000 pushups, we’re switching things up and doing a blast of lower body work! This challenge will strengthen your glutes, hamstrings & thighs while torching a ton of calories (and giving your arms a break from last week).

1000 lunges. U game?

There’s a lot of room to play within this challenge! You can choose from a huge selection of lunge variations, mixing & matching them along the way. Advanced exercisers can choose more difficult modifications and add dumbbells. Beginners can use basic lunge modifications and should focus on form before adding weight.

Note: review proper form before beginning & listen to your body! If you have problems in the knee area, try your best, but stop if you have any pain. Reduce your range of motion & stick to body weight at any time.

Proper Lunge Form

Although there are distinct differences in the many lunge variations below, there are a few key form techniques that they share. If you’re not used to doing lunges (or doing this many), it’s important to make sure your form is on point: it’ll reduce your risk of injury & protect your knees. Since this is high volume, you can opt for body weight only OR add resistance as you see fit (ideally, you can mix it up with several variations).

Strict lifestyle

In order for your body to be cut and toned to that of a fitness model or competitor you absolutely cannot eat just anything. You need to set rules and guidelines for yourself( I love fatty food just as much as the next person ) but it takes dedication and a clean diet to even begin to reach those results( of course along with the already set excerise plan )

Recipes

I have several very healthy recipes I found in last months issue of fitness magazine I’d like to share i will be posting them later today. Also if you haven’t had the simply chocolate chip cookies yet they are actually very tasteful and not that high in fat check them out:) I’ll share those pics as well of the nutrition facts

Reminder

It always good to include some for of protein( I personally prefer whey isolate ) I find it’s easier on my stomach and taste much better! But it’s good to drink these 1 hour before a workout and immediately after this helps your body stay in tune with the new changes and much healthier too!

Helpful

Crunches squats weight training situps etc are all good things to include into your exercise program but most importantly remember to include cardio it’s so beneficial to you in lots of ways!
