Boot Camp Nutrition for Women - Eat Your Fruit & Veggies
So you joined boot camp and you are running, sweating, jumping, and lifting with the best women out there. Congrats! Now it's time to move on to a nutrition discussion on the proper way to fuel yourself to see fat loss results, have lots of energy, and have the stamina to get through your workouts.
Even if you are a nutritional "beginner" and your idea of eating healthy is peeling the skin off of the fried chicken, there is one changes that you should make IMMEDIATELY to optimize your energy- EAT YOUR FRUIT & VEGGIES!
Fruit and vegetables have important vitamins and minerals. In addition, they have some phytonutrients and antioxidants that you can't get anywhere else. These important nutrients help your body to function at an optimal level.
In addition, these two types of foods are full of water and fiber. The combination helps you to stay fuller longer and to get full on less calories. This benefit makes it easier to stick to moderate portions when eating and can help you avoid the mid-afternoon temptation to eat junk (candy bars & chips).
So make it your personal mission today to enjoy 2 servings of fruit and at least 5 servings of vegetables. It's easier than you may think.
KEEP READING TO SEE HOW YOU CAN EASILY GET ALL OF YOUR VEGETABLE SERVINGS AND 1/2 OF YOUR FRUIT SERVINGS IN DINNER ALONE!
FOR A SUPER EASY WAY TO GET IN LOTS OF VEGGIES (AND SOME FRUIT), TRY ONE OF MY FAVORITE SALADS:
2 cups mixed greens
1 cup of raw spinach
1/2 cup cubed cucumbers
1/2 cup diced tomatoes
1/2 sliced apple
2T dried cranberries
5 olive
1/4 sliced avocado
1T olive oil
2T balsamic vinegar
3-4 ounces of chicken or turkey breast
salt to taste
This little salad is a whopping 5 servings of vegetables and 1 serving of fruit. See how easy that was?

Boot Camp Runs for Fat Loss - Running Without Pain
Running (more specifically short distance fast running like the sprints we do in Fit Club) is one of the most effective fat loss training tools especially for women. Sprinting is extremely effective for burning belly fat and carving out nice shapely glutes and thighs. I've read study after study that has proven those facts and I have lots of personal (and client) experience with the tummy flattening, booty boosting benefits of the sprint. So since sprints are among the royal family of fat loss exercises, I wanted to provide a few pointers for running without pain.
TOP 4 TIPS TO SPRINT YOUR WAY TO FAT LOSS WITHOUT PAIN
#1 Proper Shoes
Sprinting (or exercising at all for that matter) without pain starts with a good pair of the proper shoes. Since you wouldn’t attempt to garden in high heels, don’t attempt to sprint with sneakers that were meant for casual wear, walking, or basketball. Your best option is a shoe designed for running. The second best option is a cross-trainer that is meant to handle a variety of activities including sprinting and jumping.
Not every running shoe is a good one for you. Do you know if your foot supinates or pronates? Are you sure of your shoe size? Probably not so it’s best to get a foot and gait analysis and be fitted for shoes at a running shop like Run On in Coppell. Remember that Fit Clubbers get a 15% discount at that shop so make sure you get your coupon from me before heading out.
#2 Proper Warm Up
It’s never a good idea to go into a full out sprint without a warm up. So what’s best? Should you stretch first? Well during your Fit Club workouts, you don’t have to worry about any of that as I design your workout to make sure you are appropriately warmed up before any sprints. If you are in the mood to do sprinting on your days off, be sure to warm up properly with walking, light jogging, and / or movements that mimic running such as high knees, butt kicks, front kicks, and skipping. (This should sound familiar!) Save any static stretching for AFTER your sprints except for chronically tight areas. If you know your hip flexors or glutes are tight, stretch them before the sprints. If not, save static stretching for the end.
#3 Proper Running Mechanics
Haven’t run ever in life and not sure you’re doing it right? No problem. Here are some simple pointers that will improve your technique.
#1 Remain upright by keeping your chest high and shoulders back.
#2 Remain relaxed. Don’t tense up your shoulders or neck. Try to stay relaxed and balanced.
#3 Keep breathing. Different breathing techniques work for different people but in general breathing in through your nose and out through your mouth will keep you from holding your breath, panting, or inhaling cold air.
#4 Keep your abdominals tight. (That explains why sprinters have tight tummies!)
#5 Swing your arms back and forth from your shoulder joints and NOT across your body. Keep your elbows bent.
#6 Knees up. Lead with your knees when accelerating forward. Eliminate “straight leg” running to reduce unnecessary work for the quadriceps (front of thigh) muscles and knee joint.
#7 Land on the ball of your feet. Keep your ankles soft to avoid landing on your heels. Landing on your heels causes unnecessary jolting to your joints and body. Landing on the ball of your feet makes your land more “springy” which causes you to run faster and avoid joint pain. Avoid running on your toes as this may lead to tight calves and possibly knee pain.
#8 Open your stride. Reach as far as is comfortable with each step. This guarantees that you will cover more ground in less time. Minimizing your steps for each distance is a great way to reduce likelihood for overuse injuries.
#4 Proper Recovery
What you do after you run is just as important as what you do before and during your run.
#1 Stretch your quadriceps, hip flexors, hamstrings, and glutes. These muscles are used and tightened when you sprint. Foam rolling these muscles as well as the IT band can also speed up recovery and reduce soreness.
#2 Eat. Having a post workout meal that contains protein and carbohydrates can refuel depleted muscles and speed up muscle recovery. Good choices that are digested quickly are protein shakes or smoothies, yogurt with fruit and granola, or even rice cakes with jelly and a protein shake.
#3 Soak. If you have had a particularly intense sprinting session, soaking in an Epsom salt bath can relieve soreness and speed up recovery.
Now that you know how to run without pain, incorporate fat blasting sprints into your workout regimen for optimum fat loss results.

Training for Fat Loss During Cold Season
In order to effectively lose fat and turn your resolutions into results this year, you will have to overcome obstacles, bull doze through road blocks, and keep your eyes on the prize of a lean, healthy, and fit new you. That means in the coming weeks, you’ll have to master your family and work schedule to still make time for exercise, adapt new habits to beat cravings, and even learn to deal with cold and flu season.
Cold season has been responsible for sabotaging many fat loss programs but according to yesterday’s report on WFAA Channel 8, the common cold doesn’t have to stop your fat loss mission.
According to several doctors and researchers from prestigious hospitals and universities (even the Mayo Clinic), you do not need to stop exercising when you catch a cold. Studies have shown no difference in exercise performance when comparing healthy individuals with individuals infected with a cold. Additionally, there was no evidence to prove that working out with a cold slowed down recovery. In some subjects, recovery was enhanced because of the adrenaline release that occurs during exercise. So the moral of the story is, if you have a cold, don’t stop exercising. You can still perform well and sweat just may help cure your cold. Lace up your sneakers and hit the gym, the trail, or boot camp class. Having a cold is no excuse to skip your exercise session and that’s great news for all of you who are serious about making 2009 your year of transformation.
Don’t Exercise If…
Although the common cold should not stop you from exercising, there are a few very good reasons to skip your session. If you have an illness that is accompanied by chest congestion, fever, or body ache, skip the exercise. These symptoms can be signs of more serious illness like the flu or pneumonia and exercising under these conditions could possibly make you worse.
There are a few helpful tips I’d like to share to prevent you from spreading your cold or catching someone else’s during your exercise sessions.
#1 Wipe down cardio or weight machines before and after you use them. Be sure to pay special attention to handles and other places you will touch.
#2 Thoroughly wash your hands before and after your sessions.
#3 Use hand sanitizer if you accidentally touch a sweaty machine or weight during your session.
I’d love to hear from you if you have exercised your way through a cold. What activity made you feel best? Share your tips by clicking on the comment link at the ending of this post and typing your reply.

Why You Must Eat to Lose
So today I was speaking with a member of my Fit Club who casually mentioned that she is literally "wiped out" after her workouts. Now in Fit Club we work really hard- you have to to produce get great results and to build a body that you can be proud of BUT feeling "wiped out" is not the goal. As a matter of fact, so many of my clients report having more energy, sleeping better, and shedding pounds after joining Fit Club that her casual observation about feeling "wiped out" caused me to react with great surprise and concern. It only took a few short questions to find out what was behind her "wiped out" feeling. And as it goes with fitness and fat loss, if you are making the same mistake that she was, you are not only robbing yourself of energy and alertness but you are sabotaging your fat loss efforts too!
Turns out my "wiped out" client was skipping her post-workout nutrition- and a few other meals too because like so many of you she is a busy lady on the go. Here are the top 3 reasons why you must eat in order to effectively lose fat.
1. If you don't eat wholesome food at regular intervals (every 2-3 hours), your body will store instead of burn. That's right your body will hold on to every morsel that goes into your mouth since it has no idea when the next "famine" (long hours without food) will be. This explains why meal skipping, fasting, and super low calorie diets don't work for effective fat loss.
2. If you don't eat very soon after your workouts (45 minutes - 1 hour max), you will miss the opportunity to maximally replenish your depleted muscles. Failing to properly replenish your muscles slows down your recovery, can leave you feeling drained, and prohibits you from getting the most out of your next workout... that is if you even have enough energy to show up for your next workout.
3. The process of digestion actually BURNS CALORIES. So each time you eat, you get a little metabolic boost that helps you burn fat, preserve muscle, and get into your skinny jeans, tanks, and tees that much faster.
So remember if you want to lose fat and have energy to spare, you must eat up... wholesome food that is!
To learn more about what to eat and when to eat, join us for our next session of Great Shape Fit Club. We'll be starting January 5th and we want to see YOU there.

Fit Club Lewisville....DAY ONE!
Today was a beautiful day and the kick off of Fit Club Lewisville was a blast! After an hour of circuits, drills and even an election day game (more on that later), the ladies of Fit Club were still standing strong and ready to come back for more on Thursday!
Here's what some of the Lewisville Fit Clubbers had to say after today's workout!
Tanya- First time Fit Clubber
Michelle- Returning Fit Clubber
Shelley- So Happy to be saving gas and not driving all the way to Coppell for Fit Club.
So on to the game, we played a game of "Capture the Undecided Vote". You should have seen "the candidates" running, blocking, and lunging to capture "the undecided vote". It was pretty funny but unfortunately I don't have any footage of that game for you today.
