Why is Holly Rigsby Asking the Moms... How Expensive is Your Workout?

Written by Holly Rigsby, Author of the Fit Yummy Mummy

What is your workout costing you?

Time, money, energy, your sanity....?

Ready to turn the tables and create the expense of FAT LOSS?

That is what everyone desires in the first place, right? As you lose the fat, you reveal a new, lean, toned and beautiful body.

However as you begin a fitness plan, it can be quite confusing, for many plans lead you to believe that the best, fastest and most satisfying results are found in "Weight Loss" - only perpetuating the very unhealthy relationship we have with the scale.

Leading us to make the choices that causes the numbers to fluctuate which only drains our mental energies as we fret over what we are doing wrong to make the scale and our bodies so uncooperative with our efforts.

Time to stop the insanity! (once again).

Change your focus to Fat Loss and try what DOES work when it comes to effective and efficient workouts -and stop wasting your time, money, energies and sanity on a system that is not delivering the results you so badly desire.

The System:

Intense Full Body Resistance Training

Intense = Challenging

No lolly gagging, no chatting while working out, no hour long workout sessions.

Just simple, to the point, compound movements, performed in super set fashion. You just have 6 exercises that you perform in pairs, back to back with little to no rest.

This allows you to work the largest muscle groups in your body to the point of CHANGE - initiating the increase if lean muscle.

The more intense your workout, the more EXPENSIVE it is for your body - therefore your body must PAY in the form of FAT LOSS.

Muscle is essential to Fat Loss!

The more lean muscle you have, the more fat your burn, the more inches you lose, the faster you get back into your skinny jeans.

One of the great reasons why the Fit Yummy Mummy workouts deliver results so quickly is due to the intense nature of a Full Body Workout.

The more muscles you work, in a short period of time not only allows you to burn a significant amount of calories WHILE you are working out.....but does so l-o-n-g after your workout ends.

YEP!

You actually Get your body to work FOR you.

How much easier could the process of Fat Loss be?

You simply cannot get this same effect with.....

~ Cardio - no matter how long you do cardio, for cardio does NOTHING to increase lean muscle - and in fact, the more you DO, the more you risk losing lean muscle. In FACT, your body actually begins to break muscle down in order to provide you with the fuel you need to keep going.

Just another reason why Intervals are the Ideal Solution.

~ Hour Long Resistance Training Workouts

If it is taking an hour to do your workouts - you are missing the point of consolidating your workouts into full body, metabolism boosting moves as well as missing out on the intensity and challenge a true fat burning workout can provide.

First, for those of you who do know, there is no way if you were working out intensely that you could go much longer than 15 minutes!

Second, the longer you place your body in a state of stress, the more cortisol - the stress hormone - you will have pumping through your body. STRESS is GOOD for you in Small Doses - as prescribed with the Fit Yummy Mummy short burst resistance training moves for this is what stimulates NEW muscle growth. Hour long Stress Sessions - Not Good and completely counterproductive to your efforts.

Cortisol is known for increasing Fat Storage AND did you know cortisol also breaks down lean muscle? What a double whammy!

Yet another reason why Less is More.

~ Isolating One Muscle Group at a Time

Once again, this misses out on the concept of intensity. Burning out one small muscle group at a time comes nowhere close to the metabolic expense of targeting those SAME tiny muscle groups with compound movements.

This is why each and every Fit Yummy Mummy workout contains lower body, upper body (push and pull) and core moves.

Plus, the main reason why many woman choose to isolate muscle groups is due to the horrid myth of Spot Reduction. You simply cannot burn fat off one area simply by working that muscle. The muscle does not own the fat on top of it.

Short Burst Resistance Training is the System that Works.

Get More Bang for Your Buck! Why would you want to do it any other way?

If any of the scenarios describe your current workout plan I highly encourage you to try a new system.

Time to create the expense that delivers results.

Hey Mom... Is High Fructose Corn Syrup OK in Moderation? Find Out From Holly Rigsby, Author of the Fit Yummy Mummy

Written by Holly Rigsby, Author Fit Yummy Mummy

==================================


From the High Fructose Corn Syrup Commercial…

“Wow you don’t care what the kids eat, huh?”

“You know what they say about it”……Silence for this mom is STUMPED

Come back:

“There’s no artificial ingredients and like sugar it is okay in moderation”

In Moderation……….That is the KEY, right?

When it comes to a sound health and fitness plan, anything is okay on moderation.

And my son Tyler will be the first to tell you that it is okay to have ice cream and go to McDonald’s…..Once in awhile.

He even asks if it is “once in awhile yet”, especially if McDonald’s is advertising a movie related toy that he is “into”.

So what IS the problem?

Well the commercial is right in the fact that, in moderation, the consumption is okay, just like regular sugar.

However, HFCS is found in almost every type of processed food.

“In Moderation” does not mean “consume 5 to 6 times a day” – when in fact, our children are!

Surprised?

Wait until you Take a Look in your pantry, your fridge, your snack drawer.

You will find it in:
  • flavored milk
  • juices
  • juice boxes
  • granola snack bars
  • cereals
  • peanut butter
  • fruit chews
  • dried fruit
  • fruit cups
  • yogurt
  • whole wheat bread
  • whole wheat crackers
  • and many other “healthy” sounding food items.
HFCS can even be innocently consumed while dining on spaghetti, seasoning with Worcester sauce, topping a salad, or dipping something into catsup.

As a Busy Moms it seems to be so much easier to choose a more convenient form of “health” foods for their children. When in fact, the foods chosen are processed and contain HFCS.

Based on the list above, it is highly likely your child is consuming these empty calories 5 to 6 times a day!

Hardly what anyone would consider “In Moderation”.

The impact?

The USDA suggests most of us limit our intake of added sugar — that’s everything from the high fructose corn to plain old teaspoons of sugar — to about 10 to 12 teaspoons a day.

This is not exactly a campaign that encourages us to do so. On average it is easy to take in over 30 teaspoons of sugar a day, which was more than 15 percent of our caloric intake.

These empty calorie foods are simply taking the place of more nutritious, satisfying, health promoting foods our children should be eating.

The Solution?

You can choose to….

~ Check the Labels of the convenience foods you are buying and seek out a HFCS-Free item or even better

~ Replace all the highly processed foods with whole, natural foods - foods that actually promote health, wellness and a lifetime of fitness when it comes to the future of our children.

Need help?

Try this…
  • Replace the juice with water
  • Replace the granola bars with apple slices and almonds
  • Replace the flavored milk with organic milk - Tyler's favorite, "Horizon"
  • Next…..Refer to your very own lifestyle system - Fit Yummy Mummy.
  • Live the life you want your children to live.

Is your New Year's Resolution to Lose Weight?

As you contemplate your plans to lose weight and get in shape for the New Year, before you add another diet to your resume and spend your valuable time, energy and money on the latest diet, Holly Rigsby, author of Fit Yummy Mummy advises you to think twice about your decision.

The only thing growing faster than the $65 billion diet industry is the American waistline. If your Resolution for the New Year is to GO on a Diet, the only place I guarantee you will go....is up in weight.
It's a Fact - Diets will only make you fatter.

When it comes to the latest in Diet fads, we are quite gullible and easily tempted by a Diet's empty promised. Reason being....the diet industry KNOWS we are in search of the "quick fix" and will only play with our emotions - our desperation for the quickest way to relieve looking and feeling fat.

Diets are nothing more than Temporary Solutions with many lingering, negative side effects.

Here are the Top 10 Reasons Why you should NOT "go" on a Diet

1. Diets do NOT work. Diets have a 99% Failure Rate. Have you noticed a pattern yet? Lose weight....quickly regain it? Over time, studies show if you diet you are more likely to be overweight than people who eat normally and make small gradual changes to their lifestyle. No, the Law of Averages does not apply to this faulty system.

2. Dieting can be Dangerous. Any time you severely restrict the amount or types of foods you eat you put your health and life at risk. Dieting has been related to injuries and sudden deaths from electrolyte imbalance, malnutrition, and heart arrhythmia's. Weight cycling, or yo-yo-ing weight, is associated with higher death rates - especially if some type of pills are being used. At no point should you ever place weight loss above your health.

3. Dieting Destroys your Metabolism. Diets will cause your weight to quickly cycle up and down. Sure, you may lose weight quickly because you are simply not eating enough. In the initial stages, the first seven to nine pounds lost are water, presenting a real danger of dehydration and mineral deficiencies. Even more terrifying ins the break down of lean muscle due to inefficient
nutrients and calories. If you are losing more than 3-4 pounds a week, you can be sure this is what is happening - very little fat is lost this state.

Now, any muscle loss will cause your metabolism slow to a crawl. The cumulative effect takes place for you cannot survive very long on very low calories (1200 or less) and you will eventually eat more - on top of a slower metabolism. All those excess calories will be stored as fat - causing rapid weight gain.

4. Dieting is Exhausting. Diets are just reduced calorie Fads disguised by a clever gimmick. "Lose weight while you sleep" "Eat all you want and still lose weight" Not eating enough or cutting out certain food groups means your body may not be getting the energy it needs, or may lack certain nutrients. You will feel exhausted, light headed and experience some not-so-fun mood swings.

5. Dieting is Disruptive. Dieting negatively affects your normal eating patterns. Diets can lead to binge eating, overeating and chaotic eating. When you diet, it is common to override your
internal signals telling you to eat. You end up trying to use willpower or resist hunger signals and may even go as far as taking appetite suppressants. This results in being unable to know when
you really are hungry or wore....when you're full.

6. Dieting can lead to eating disorders. Experts state that the high rates of eating disorders in the U.S. are due in part to people dieting, losing weight, rebounding, and becoming chronic dieters.

7. Dieting Causes Food Obsessions. If you spend a large amount of time and energy depriving yourself of food or certain types of food - you will spend more time thinking about food and become obsessed attempts to control your weight by what you choose to eat or not eat. How long do you want to live like this?

8. Dieting Diminishes Women. There is way too much attention focused on our appearance and an arbitrary number on the scale. In the midst of this focus - we end up avoiding what really matters to us - our dreams and ambitions. Even worse, it erodes our confidence and self-respect.

9. Dieting Intensifies Negativity. If you diet, you are more judgmental and critical of yourself and others. Once again, wasted time and energy.

10. Diets Put Your Life on Hold. Does this sound familiar...."I'll be happy when I weigh ______" Guess what, the issues in your life are not related to your weight. Take responsibility and take back control of your life. Decide to be happy now and do what it takes to live a lifestyle that reflects your priorities.

So this New Year resolve to NOT go on a Diet - Set Yourself F.r.e.e. from this miserable, guaranteed to fail weight loss cycle. Do NOT let the diet industry make money by taking advantage of you. It is time to stand up for yourself and take control.
