Spring is just around the corner. No more hiding behind all the bulky sweaters and coats. Those slim-fitting, shorter tops will be everywhere… Is your body ready to wear them????

It seems every winter we use the excuse of the cold weather to keep us from exercising and instead we eat all those “comfort foods”. Are you one of these people? I used to be much worse than I am now. If you “bulked up” this winter and are looking for ways to get rid of it, I am here today to give you some ideas.

First and foremost you have to eat like you are your “Goal Size”. What I mean by that is if you are a size 14 and your goal is a size 10, you must eat like a size 10 and be more active. You have to live like you are that size 10 and make the correct food choices.

To obtain smaller abs crunches alone will not do it. Keep in mind, your abdominals are actually comprised of three major muscles: the rectus abdominis, the obliques, and the transverse abdominis. Each muscle has its own function and thus specific ways to target it. They are divided into external and internal muscle groups, and reside on both sides of your midsection. Both sets of obliques have the same two main functions: torso lateral flexion, which is bending the upper half of your body side to side, and torso rotation, which is twisting your upper body away from your torso. The obliques are used in any movement in which your torso bends laterally or twists.

Cardio is a major component in losing fat on your abs. I have also found that exercises using BodyLastic bands are amazing. I started using them 4 weeks ago and the transformation is amazing. I highly recommend getting these bands and using their free exercise classes. Click here for more information.

If you still are thinking, “I probably won’t use them when I buy it. I need someone to push me”…I can help you there too. My partner Melissa Bierman and I, Beverly Monical, have a WebTV Fat Loss Show starting March 29th. Check it out here and join us for the accountability you need to meet your goals.
