Are you taking fish oil supplements daily? If not you may want to reconsider. Several studies have shown daily fish oil supplementation, or eating fish frequently, aids in reducing body fat. Listen to this: It appears that much of the weight lost is central fat from the stomach area.

4th of July HEAT RASH!
It was supposed to be a beautiful weekend and turned out to be…. not so great 😦 Kinda. I went camping up in the mountains on Friday. Regardless of high altitude it was a very hot day: mid 90’s. On Saturday was even hotter! As usual, I hit the trails- on both days – nothing extreme, just short hikes about 2-3 hours long. Saturday after evening I felt very weak and tired. I assumed it’s from the heat. On Sunday morning I went on another hike and while having a short break I noticed a few small bumps on my arms. I thought they were bug bites but an hour later I got some rash spots. I drove back home that afternoon. Now my arms, back and legs are covered with rash. I did my research and conducted my own diagnosis. Apparently, when I put the sunscreen on and reapplied twice a day, the lotion clogged sweat ducts of the sweat glands. When that happens the sweat can’t get to the surface of the skin. Instead, it becomes trapped beneath the skin’s surface causing mild inflammation or rash. Now I have to stay indoor and enjoy the mountains from my window 🙂
Happy a great weekend 🙂 Enjoy your holidays and select your sunscreen lotions wisely !!!

Jump Rope Tutorial for Beginners ★ Learn How to Jump Rope (quick and easy way to practice)
If you are a stranger to a jump rope then this tutorial video is just for you! It explains how to learn jump rope: where to start, explains some simple jump rope exercises and provides tips on how to begin and how to perform certain exercises step by step. Let me know if it helps you. In the beginning, it’s important to select the appropriate length of a jump rope. Once you get that, you have to practice as often as you can. It may seem really hard (or even impossible) in the beginning but don’t give up. You have to develop your own rhythm. I don’t recommend practicing for too long at once, especially when you first learning. Keep your training below 15 minutes and either take a break or get back to it the next day. If you do too much in the beginning you may get discouraged fast or even get injured. Let your body rest when it needs. Always warm up before the exercises and drink water. Good luck!

Workouts: Well done!
Monday kicked off nicely with 4.5 miles on a treadmill. I ran for 2 miles and walked on 15 incline pretty fast for 2.5 miles. I finished up with some weight lifting focusing on upper body. Today I devoted about 1.5 hours to glutes and legs. Not too bad – should feel it tomorrow 😉

How to have productive days & weekends?
Exercise first thing in the morning!! Get up early and do your routine! Get it out of your way and you’ll be free the rest of the day/ weekend. If you don’t, then every hour that goes by, another excuse…. Get Your Priorities Strait. Today, I had my morning cup of coffee, checked email, etc. and later hit a treadmill: 5 miles 🙂 Nothing crazy intense- just moderate pace. I ended up with 2 abs segments: 1) 12 intervals (30 sec. each), 2) and 10 intervals with small weights.
Now, I’m energized & free for the rest of the weekend so I can do whatever I want!

Lower Body + Cardio workout
Here is my latest workout video. It’s fairly easy if you take all 3 rest periods. However, if you can, try to keep those rests below 20-30 sec. – to intensify your workout. If it’s too easy for some of you, simply pick up heavier weights and do the set again. If it’s still too easy, do all the squats, lunges and jumps (including sumo and skaters) with weights. I hope you’ll sweat enough and feel the workout in your butt and legs the next day 🙂
