Everybody is always looking for the MAJIC exercise that is going to do the trick or the MAJIC PILL that will finally make you lose those last few pounds of fat.

I remember before I became a trainer, I was about 15,16 years old and all I did was read the fitness magazines looking for the best exercises, the ones that would finally change my body.

Though you can not spot reduce, there are exercises that are GREAT, where you get your greatest bang for your buck!  The ones that if short on time, you must do!

And remember, that in order to continue to see results week after week, its so important that you change up your workouts.  If you don’t, your results will plateau.  

There are so many things you can change in your workouts to make them effective, challenging, different and fun.  I can give you 7 different ways to change them here.

But before I give you the BEST EXERCISES for getting your biggest CALORIC BURN, I can’t continue without telling you that though these exercises and workouts are incredibly important if you want to get thinner and more toned…….  If you don’t have the proper nutrition, its quite impossible.  So I am going to give you some NUTRITION TIPS that will make a huge impact.

I have to make sure you are not eating one or more of foods on this list.  Because if you are, it can be completely SABOTAGING your results.  Yes, it can totally be true that you can be working your butt off at the gym 6 days a week, eating super healthy, but if you are eating one or more of these foods, you will NOT BE ABLE TO LOSE WEIGHT.

This is so important and makes such a huge impact on your results that I decided to compile these foods into a PDF for you.  So go to the following link where you can download all this information, print it out and keep it in your kitchen.  I also added a list of 5 Foods that are NECESSARY for you to include in your diet if you want to LOSE WEIGHT and GET TONED.

Taking these 5 foods out of my DIET has made the biggest results in my body than anything else I have done in over 15 years.  It’s crazy that after having 2 kids, now I am in better shape than ever.  Crazy!  

Well, not too crazy because all of my clients say the same thing, both online clients and the ones I train LIVE.  They are all in way better shape now after following my program then ever before.  I want to also  share with you a short video of my favorite 5 ABS EXERCISES.  The ones that have gotten me ABS after having 2 kids (daughter is 15 months) and I never had them before.  Here is the link so you can download the PDF and get the VIDEO.  Start applying it right now.  Take those 5 foods out of your KITCHEN immediately!  LINK TO PDF & VIDEO

Ok, now that this is clear, here is what to look for when choosing the BEST EXERCISES:

• Compound Movements: Exercises that work more than one body part.
• Single Leg Movements: These work stabilizing muscles, and work the core. The more muscles you work, the more calories you burn.
• No Single Joint Movements: These movements work less muscles, in turn, burning fewer calories.

When putting together a FAT LOSS workout. Choose one exercise per body part. Take into consideration the tips above. Perform 20 repetitions of each exercise and do them one after the other with minimal to no rest in between each exercise.

These are the kind of exercises plus tons more that I include in my MMF Monthly Workouts.  My ladies get the most amazing results.  It’s so important to have a plan when you exercise and to be consistent with it is key.

I love sending them their NEW WORKOUTS every month and I know that they feel at ease knowing they have an effective and safe workout that is challenging and well thought out.  No need to figure out what to do or walk in to the gym with no plan.

Going to the gym with a plan is also way more fun and less intimidating.  I always go to the gym with a workout plan. I actually follow my MMF Monthly Workouts myself.  They rock!

You can find short videos on how to do most of these exercises here.  It’s my YouTube Channel and you will also find tons of workout videos there too for pretty much every muscle in your body.  So when  you get there, make sure to hit SUBSCRIBE so that you can have access to them.

These exercises burn a ton of calories because they work many muscles and they utilize the core!

Remember to change up your workouts often and check out here how you can BURN MORE CALORIES during your workouts.  Here, I will tell you what kind of workouts burn the most calories so that you can lose more weight and faster.

Another thing, make sure to have a POST-WORKOUT PROTEIN SHAKE immediately after your workout.  This increases your chances of building muscle and getting better results by a ton.  I have a whole board on MY PINTEREST PAGE dedicated to just PROTEIN SHAKES AND SMOOTHIES.  They are all so yummy and worth going there daily to try a different recipe.  My favorite is my Belly Flattening Protein Smoothie.  You are going to freakin love it!
