Fat Burning Foods


For your Target Dieting Needs..

i just thought you'd find it interesting.. That so much food that we eat every day is awesome for burning fat. Many people think that you have to down those weight loss drinks, or protein shakes and pills and stuff. 
Though these are awesome help to burning fat and gaining muscle, here are a few options you can explore to find what works best for YOU.

Body Shaping Foods
Fiber-rich Foods (whole grains, fruits, and vegetables) :Fiber helps reduce thigh fat when daily fiver levels average 26 grams. Scientists speculate that ample fiber helps escort excess estrogen from the body. Estrogen is partly responsible for laying down fat on the lower body, particularly in women.

Fish: Omega-2 fats in fish help reduce the size of fat cells in the body.

"Resistant Starches" (beans, legumes, barley, etc.): These special carbohydrates contain a unique type of dietary fiber that resists digestion. By replacing some of the normal starch with resistant starch, you burn up to 25% more fat every day.


Pretty cool hey? Try to use some of these in your regular meals and see what they do to help!
Make Dieting FUN.. Just because you're on a diet doesn't mean you can only eat rabbit food. Try different things to keep your diet interesting.

Zumba Tip #1
CLEAR YOUR MIND
Beto Perez, the Zumba Papi Himself, says, 'Before you start [your Zumba work out], mentally put aside any concerns, worries or issues. Most people find Zumba to be a stress reliever. Use your workout to relax, clear your mind, and concentrate on your dancing.

That's tonight's tip!


ALSO

Time for Results!

It's time we add something new..

We've already experienced and loved the Zumba way of life, and look forward to class every week. But now it's time to add more reason to love my Zumba classes.
I'm now going to be doing personalized diets for loosing weight and gaining muscle and using the ZUMBA DIET that's set up for us by Beto Perez.
This diet is not restricting! It's different and it's effective! 
So, with this diet, I'll be setting up personalized menu's and daily work outs that will get you looking great in a faster, healthier and LASTING way; unlike those quick weight loss scams we're all trying to avoid! 
Here's now it works.
Every week, we'll measure and calculate how much you're loosing and figure out what else we can do to improve according to YOUR body type and health habits.
You'll have weekly assignment's and daily work outs to accomplish as well as comig to Zumba.
You'll be given a weekly menu of things to try and make work for YOU!

This is going to be unlike ANY Zumba class you'll find, because along with being FUN, you'll look better and feel better and get help on how to improve.
i love you! 
Get healthy, and Get HAPPY!
We start a new life THIS WEEK!
