Anita Herbet Top Intermittent Fasting Tips

 As many of you already know, I have been practicing IF for quite a while (~4 years) so I wanted to share some of my tips that can be helpful for you if you are just starting out:


1️⃣ You don’t have to count your calories, but your calories always count.

Just because you’re fasting does NOT mean you can just eat whatever you want during your eating window. If want to lose fat, you still need to be in a calorie deficit.


2️⃣ You don’t have to fast everyday.

For example, you could fast on weekdays and skip the weekends so you can enjoy breakfast/ brunch with friends & family. (I typically don’t fast on Sundays)


3️⃣ Drink lots of water

Water will naturally flush toxins from the body, keep you hydrated, and keep you full too.


4️⃣ Drink coffee/tea

Coffee is an incredible appetite suppressant! Be careful not to overdo it though. Mix it up with decaf coffee and tea.


5️⃣Some days will be hard — but don’t give up. It’s also OK to break your fast earlier if you absolutely can’t stand it on some days, nothing bad will happen.


6️⃣ Stay busy

The busier you are, the less likely you will be thinking about food.


7️⃣ Be careful not to overeat in your feeding window. This is a common mistake especially for those that are new to IF.


8️⃣ Fit fasting into your lifestyle — not vice versa. Don’t change your lifestyle to fit your fasting schedule! Adjust your fasting schedule to what makes sense for your lifestyle.


9️⃣ Practice makes perfect

The longer you do it, the better you’ll get.


REMEMBER, INTERMITTENT FASTING IS NOT A MAGIC DIET PILL —simply fasting doesn’t mean that the weight will fall off your body. You still need to stay consistent with exercise and a nutritious diet with the right calories and macros for your goals. IF is just another tool in the toolkit, but it isn’t the only (or even the most important) tool.

645 With Amoila Cesar New Beachbody program

 Beachbody announced its newest program on this past weekend Super Saturday  645 named for the most active time on Beachbody as well 6 workout for week for 45 minutes each.  

Created by hardess super trainer  Amoilia Cesar  of the Work and Prep fame.   



Created by Beachbody Super Trainer Amoila Cesar, 645 is a cutting-edge strength and mobility training program designed to help you build incredible power while losing weight — and without finishing workouts feeling defeated or wiped out.

He’ll motivate you the same way he does some of the world’s best athletes to get your best workout, every day.

Each session starts with a total-body warm-up that activates your muscles and readies them for the hard work to come. Make no mistake, these first 10 minutes are much more than a good stretch.

By focusing on your entire body, you’re setting yourself up to get the most out of every rep and every move, and to properly prep your body so that you’re physically ready for what’s to come.

645 is 6 days a week, 45 minutes a day, for 13 weeks.

This groundbreaking program is broken into 4 stages — the first three are 4 weeks each, while the last one is week 13.

More than getting great results, Amoila’s goal is to put you on a straight path to reaching your peak in 13 weeks without crawling across the finish line.

If you ever find a workout too challenging, you can follow the modifications as you build up your fitness level.

What Are the Workouts in 645?

For 4 days a week, you’ll focus on strength training, power, and hypertrophy, switching from heavier weights with low reps to lighter weights with higher reps. Each workout has 7 moves that will keep you fired up and engaged.

Wednesday is Mobility & Stability, with an emphasis on efficient activation, stretching, and movement. You’ll feel refreshed and ready to get back to the next day’s workout.

Saturday is Cardio 45, a high-energy cardio session that will build multidirectional speed and agility to get your heart pumping and calories burning.

Sunday is your day. Use it to meal prep, relax, and reframe your mind for the week ahead.

In each of the first 3 stages, you’ll gradually change up your reps and weights as you progress to more challenging moves.

On the 4th week of each stage, you’ll decrease the number of sets to limit the volume of work and enhance recovery before the next stage begins.

Remember, the goal is to work your muscles without over-training them.

Week 13 is your Performance Stage, where you’ll do your final push to finish strong.

Here is some of the excitement regarding 645 

Awesome I am so happy it is 6 days a week and 45 minutes a day as well as using resistance training and personal preference of no cussing. Thank you, I hope I love this one!!


Plz adopt me and help me get my pre COVID body back πŸ₯΄πŸ₯΄πŸ˜‚

Beachbody 21 Day Fix Fitness program

This Beachbody 21 Day Fix Review is going to focus on the workouts, nutrition and cost. All 3 factors are important to consider before you buy a program. Let's start by looking at the workouts.

21 Day Fix Review - The Workouts

Have you ever seen an infomercial for a piece of equipment that promises to sculpt and tone a specific body part. Some examples include 3 Minute Legs and 60 Second Abs. Having a background in fitness, I tend to laugh at these products. Why would you pay a bunch of money for a product that only works 1 area of your body. The 21 Day Fix is not one of those products, which I like about it. The program consists of 6 different workouts, which are;
Upper Fix. This workout utilizes resistance training to help shape your chest, back, shoulders, arms, and abs.
Lower Fix. This workout focuses on firming and toning your entire lower body while you blast fat and burn calories.

Total Body Cardio Fix. This one keeps your heart rate up and your metabolism revved, helping you burn calories all day long.

Cardio Fix. This workout does what cardio is designed to do, get your heart pumping and your body moving.

Pilates Fix. Strengthen your core, elongate your muscles, and firm your hips and thighs.

Yoga Fix. Improve your balance, flexibility, and strength as you help relax your muscles.

As you can see, this program covers every part of your body, which I believe is crucial for an effective program.

However, if you are used to tougher workouts, such as P90X or Insanity, you may be disappointed in these workouts. They are challenging, but not as much as some of Beachbody's tougher programs.

Looking At The Nutrition

Nutrition is an area that most people struggle with. It can be very challenging to know how much you should eat of what. I love the approach that Autumn Calabrese, the trainer behind The 21 Day Fix, has used in this program. She has made it simple with a simple portion control system. The program includes 7 different containers for your food. They are color coated based on which type of food goes in it.

Green-Vegetables
Purple-Fruit
Red-Protein
Yellow-Carbohydrates
Blue-Healthy Fats and Cheese
2 Orange-Seeds and Oils

You simply fill each container with what is supposed to go in it, and that is your food for the day.

21 Day Fix Review - If It Worth It

The workouts work your total body, and the nutrition has been simplified. The last component to look at is the price. I was surprised when I saw the price of this program. It retails for $59.95. That price includes the 6 workouts, the color coated containers, and Beachbody throws in some bonus incentives.

Overall, my 21 Day Fix Review is that this program is easily worth the cost. If you would like to learn more about this program, visit Livelovegetfit.com/beachbody-workouts/the-21-day-fix/.
