Consistency Produces Results

Consistency : The ability to set a goal and do what is necessary to accomplish said goal

I am more than sure that I am not the only women in the world who is constantly setting goals , making To - Do list and rethinking my grand life plan over and over. AM I ?

 

As women we have managed to not only create man kind but we have also managed to run the world and quite fashionably I might add. So what is it that causes some of us to never reach our full potential ?

Does Oprah , Beyonce and other very successful women have the secret we are all looking for ?

Yes, these Queens are an inspiration.

Of course I would love to be a media mogul, who could strut a stage in 6 inch heels while flawlessly running the world one high hat at a time.

However for the 80% of women who are apart of the social norm ( Middle Class Women ) we are simply striving to complete our daily task list without forgetting lunch, an ear ring or a PTO meeting. And as much as we love Oprah and Bey I am more inspired by the average women who takes care of home and family.  The team mom who never skips a beat on this crazy journey we call womenhood.

 

Goal Setting  

 

I want to share with you my goals for September , then explain to you what I will be doing to stay consistent  and on course.

 

Consistency

Now goal setting is the easy part , the real work is putting your plan into action.

For example, I am aware that in order for me to be successful in fitness, I have to have someone to be accountable to. ( yes I am a trainer who pays for a trainer ) I find it more suitable for me to check in and stay on track with someone to answer to .

 

Sometimes accountability helps you remember exactly what you are doing all of this for. when I have to answer to my trainer , it reminds me of the big picture , my dream is to be a prominent Fitness advocate for women and mothers. and every time I skip a workout of sneak a sweet snack I am potentially pushing my dream further away.

 

Once you make something important enough , once it becomes like air then nothing should keep you from achieving your goal. Don't allow you become your own set back.

This Time make consistency one of your main goals.

If I can then You can !

Back Fat Sucks and most of us women have dealt with this evil at some point in life. Bra strap fat , that little bulge on the side of your waist line and the She-devil Grand

mistress of the all, Love handles. I mean really who decided that fat holding on to  the side of your body could be described as love. somebody find this genius and tell him that women from across the world would like to take turns slapping him, for the thought that reminding us of the few inches we have yet to lose is a sign of his undying love.

 

"Performing exercises to strengthen the upper back will reduce chronic neck and shoulder pain, improve your posture and, in turn, your back will improve aesthetically," says Nedra Lopez, co-owner and head trainer of The Studio by Remorca Fitness in NYC. "The 'bulge' around your bra line will disappear with repetition and consistency."

 

All healthy changes are results of a healthy lifestyle change PERIOD !!!

However targeting particular muscle groups can also be achieved, here are a few exercises that will help you blast the fat back from the pits it came from.

1. Lie face down on your stomach, extending your legs out straight behind you and arms extended out to each side. (You should look like the letter “T.”) Start with the palms facing down. Slowly elevate your arms and squeeze your shoulder blades together, keeping your arms straight, then slowly bring arms back down to the ground. Repeat for a set of 20.
2. Next, extend your arms above your head at an angle into a “Y” position. Keeping your palms down, slowly elevate your arms and squeeze your shoulder blades together, keeping your arms straight, then slowly bring arms back down to the ground. Make sure to keep your shoulders from coming up towards your ears. Repeat for a set of 20.
3. Now, extend your arms straight above your head into an “I” position. From here lift your arms straight up, squeezing your shoulder blades together while pushing your shoulders down towards your lower back. Repeat for a set of 20.

Plank Drops

 

1. Start in plank position, resting on your forearms, with feet shoulder width apart.

3. Repeat 3 sets of 20

Renegade Row

 

 

1. Place two kettlebells on the floor about shoulder width apart. Position yourself on your toes and your hands as though you were doing a pushup, with the body straight and extended. Use the handles of the kettlebells to support your upper body. You may need to position your feet wide for support.
2. Push one kettlebell into the floor and row the other kettlebell, retracting the shoulder blade of the working side as you flex the elbow, pulling it to your side.
3. Then lower the kettlebell to the floor and begin the kettlebell in the opposite hand. Repeat 3 sets of 15

 Just combine healthy eating regular exercise and rest to get the results you desire.
