Needing Motivation?

What do you do when Motivation is lacking?

You've decided to embark on an exercise regime and have been eating clean for a few weeks. Then all of a sudden life gets in the way. It could be work stress, family or relationship dramas...whatever the case, your head is not in training mode anymore and your diet is not the best.

But you were so determined to lose that winter flab and fit into your favourite summer outfit. Now you're back to square one. We've all been there and it's frustrating!

Low Fat Raspberry & Dark Chocolate Protein Muffins

For some time now I have been trying to perfect my protein muffins. I made these last week and they are pretty tasty.
You will need -
1 cup wholemeal self raising flour
1 cup almond meal
3 eggs
3 scoops Chocolate protein powder ( I used Aussie Bodies Lo Carb)
3 tablespoons honey
Raspberries (frozen or fresh)
85% Lindt Dark Chocolate 4 squares chopped
Skim milk
2 tablespoons of Sunflower Oil

Separate eggs. Whisk egg yolks and honey together. Add dry ingredients, oil and milk. When consistency is right add your raspberries and chocolate.

Detox the right way

If you feel the need to detox then why not try Chlorophyll. It's an all natural detox health drink made from plants. Chlorophyll acts as a internal body cleanser and deodorant. It helps with digestion, as well as cleansing your bowel, liver, kidneys and bloodstream. You can mix it with water or take it straight.
I have been taking a tablespoon every morning for the past week before having breakfast. My stomach feels better and I have noticed that it suppresses my appetite a little. I can now last about 2 hours more before I need to eat my second meal.

Indoor Cycle - Get Into It!!!

Spin classes are effective, enjoyable and low impact.

Whether its cold and rainy outside, there is no excuse not to get an amazing cardio workout on a stationary bike. The rider is always in control of the cadence of cycling and the tension on the flywheel, and there are no complicated moves, techniques, or choreography to master. Just make sure you are set up correctly and pedal away!

The Don’t Go Hungry Diet

Dr Amanda Sainsbury-Salis, PhD is author of The Don’t Go Hungry Diet. If you’ve been struggling with your weight then this is a good eye opener into why your diets have been failing. I have been taking Amanda’s advice and listening to my body and only feeding my hunger. Since March 2009 I have lost 8kg and 11cm off my wasit. It’s working! If you think about it, it’s real simple. Only eat when you feel physically hungry, and stop eating when you feel satisfied (not over full). To find out more go to Dr Amanda Online.

Don’t ignore the signs

So you’re an avid runner. That’s great! But you’re getting some aches and pains in your muscles, making it difficult for you to stick to your fitness routine and exercise as much as you would like. You ignore them, hoping they’ll just go away.
Think Twice.

The Beep Test

The Beep Test measures your cardiovascular maximum. You need to set out 20 meters and run from one end to the other. The Beeps start off slow, then get faster and faster. You stop when you can’t reach one end before the beep. I managed to get to Level 8.3 this week. My goal is Level 10. How far can you go?
