Get Your Best Beach Body in as Little as 12 Weeks- Yes You Can Do It!!!

Get your best beach body within weeks with these tips so you feel great on the Florida beaches and your next vacation.

This page is here to offer you a blueprint on how we got into our best beach body shape before our vacations and sustained it afterward. What we did was follow an expert who offered the advice, tips, and mental & physical strength that we needed to get into shape.

First rule is...K.I.S.S. (keep it simple silly). I love this saying.

People, including myself, believe that success is complicated. That we mustlearn confusing and complicated techniques to get our best beach body.

In fact, thatgoes for anything in life. This is what we're taught. Unfortunately, successis about finding what works and following it to a tee.

For example, building this website follows that exact strategy. This blueprint will maintain this first rule.

It doesn't meanthat you won't work hard, that you won't have to change a bit. It does mean thatthe plan/system is simple to follow and all it takes is you. Your desire, effort,perseverance, and passion!!

So, let's get started on the journey of getting your best beach body(Angie, my beloved wife, is going to guide you through this section)...

Here is a list of criteria so to speak to get you going...

• You have to WANT to change. All you have to do is decide to do it, butyou must mean it. You can lie to anyone except yourself.
  
  
• This leads into picking a system and sticking to it. There are many great systems out there. We like this one and the tips we provide seem to fit into the majority of the systems out there. Just stick to it- they work!!
  
  
• Find something that motivates you. For instance this Florida vacation and walking aroundin a beach bikini swimsuit. That motivates us every time. For me, it was a contest we did at work. I work with all women and we all were tired of being out of shape. I ended up winning a few hundred bucks. Vacation, wedding, reunion, etc... will get you motivated.
  
  
• Set your goals ahead of time. Write them down. Keep them in a place you'll see them everyday (ie. bathroom mirror). Make sure your goals are attainable but not too easy.
  
  
• Take pictures (sorry, I can't currently find mine- not joking- we'll get them up assoon as I find them). Yes, this can be embarrassing, but it is an important motivator. Do a before and after.Also, put up pictures of what you want to look like. Remember there are no limits so don'tbe afraid to shoot for the stars.
  
  
• Keep a Journal. Keep track of what you eat, your workouts, and grade yourself on how youdid each day. Be Honest!!
  
  
• Have Fun! You will grow physically, but most importantly mentally. This may sound cheesy, but it's true. Once you accomplish your goals of gettingthe best beach body, you will have the confidence to be a success in any area of yourlife.

Proven Fitness & Health Tips & Strategies...

1. Eat 5-6 small meals per day.
Yes, you eat more often, about every 3 hours.This speeds up your metabolism which burns fat faster. This doesn't mean eat fast food six times per day.
It means eat healthy, balanced meals.

We use "Eating For Life," by Bill Phillips to get high quality recipes so we didn't get bored.
This book offers numerous choices for eating healthy and what you caneat. You will be surprised at what you can eat!! Try whatever you want, as there are many choices out there when it comes to healthy lifestyles.

Oh, we almost forgot, you only follow this plan 6 days of the week. One day is your cheatday.

You get to eat anything you want. Splurge, it is ok. Many people think this is wierd,but it's actually beneficial to your body. As your body gets used to this new way of eating,a cheat day will do two things.

One, it allows your body to acclimate to your new best beachbody diet.

Two, it keeps you motivated. If you pig out on your favorite foods, you willrealize how crappy you feel and will be ready to start eating healthy again. It is a psychologicalthing. Trust me it works.



2. Find a workout regime that fits your best beach body desires.
What do you want? Lose weight?Build muscle? Tone? A combo of these?

The program that works best for us is a mix of lifting weights and cardio. Since we are busy people, we use a plan that gets us done withour workouts within 45 minutes.

We did Taebo, ran with our dog, & did various exercises for cardio first thing in the morning.

On opposite days, we would lift weights. We alternated upper body and lower body everyother day.

Once you get through the soreness, you'll start to feel more powerful and energetic.Try it, you'll see!!

My husband follows many different workout plans, but that is because he gets bored easily.The one that he always returns to or starts with is "Body For Life," again by Bill Phillips.Yes, we love him! He knows his stuff and practices what he preaches.



3. Have Fun & Stick to It! This is most important. Also, make sure you have support while building yourbest beach body and have fun during the journey. There really is gold at the endof this rainbow.
