Tips and Helps

What are some things you are doing to get protein in the morning? I have found that in order to get enough protein during the day I need some at all three meals. Eggs are a good source and sometimes I will make a breakfast burrito with black beans. Yogurt is good as well and I have made fruit & yogurt parfaits so I still get a grain serving with the granola but sometimes it increases my sugar too much to eat those. Is there anything I'm missing?

If any of you feel like your workout just isn't providing the effects you were hoping for here are some tips that might help:

• Try adding weights to your hands or feet. The extra resistance surprises your muscles!
  


• Change up the workout by doing something different on M, W, F or just on Friday and Saturday.
  


• Do a mixture of cardio and strength workouts.
  


• DRINK LOTS OF WATER THROUGHOUT THE DAY!

You shouldn't have to push yourself more than 45 mins to 1 hour every day to see results IF you are eating properly as well as working out.
