Breaking through Weight Plateaus

Believe it or not even people like me who are exercising and doing what they are suppose to still hit plateaus.

I hit a plateau 2 weeks in a row, I was stuck, and begging for help.

I asked Trainer Momma, she said keep doing what you are doing, but add more activities to your daily life to burn more calories. Wow! Burn more calories a little tricky for being a stay at home mom.

Jillian says when you hit plateaus it's time to progress in your workout. Same thing Trainer Momma told me.

Okay....I'm thinking where do I go from here??

Trainer Momma told me to walk around the Mall, go swimming, walk around the neighborhood.

I started thinking outside the box too.

People might call me crazy or inspirational, I'll take either one of those names thank you very much.

I run in place, or around the living during commercials while watching TV to burn extra calories. While walk around the neighborhood for 30- 60minutes, I sprint 20- 30 seconds randomly to trick my body into burning more calories. I also jog to every place in the house.

Hey, if  you don't feel like running during commercials all the time, do jumping jacks, push ups,squats, or lunges. Get creative!!!

Bob Harper said in way to jump your calorie burn once a week do the workout twice in the same day. Or do 50push ups, and 100squats to burn an extra 200 calories. Sounds good to me. (source http://www.mytrainerbob.com/)

Trainer Momma told not to jump the gun when adding exercises/activities to what I'm already doing. Try adding 3 more activities a week, and slowly work up my way up.

It has been said that it takes 21days to create a good habit, and stick to it, so if you goof don't beat yourself up. Recognize what you did wrong, and start over, after all the world wasn't created in a day.
