Get your R&R: Proper Rest & Recovery between Workouts

Working out consistently is one of the best things that you can do for yourself but there is a limit to how much stress your body can tolerate before it breaks down and risks injury. Doing too much work too quickly will result in injury or muscle damage, but doing too little, too slowly will not result in any improvement. This is why the REST days in your workout program are so important. You will need the right dosage of rest and recovery in order to build and maintain lean muscle! Building recovery time into your training program is important because it is when you are resting that your body adapts to the stress of the exercise and the real effects of your hard work begin to take place. It is during this time that your body is able to replenish energy stores and repair damaged tissues. Effective exercise causes changes in the body including muscle tissue breakdown & the depletion of energy stores & fluid loss.When you Recovery time allows these stores to be replenished and allows tissue repair to occur. Without sufficient time to repair and replenish your body will continue to break down from intensive exercise. Symptoms of overtraining often occur from a lack of recovery time. Signs of overtraining include a feeling of general malaise, staleness, depression, decreased sports performance and increased risk of injury, among others. We want you to be successful as much as you do but remember- Don’t over do it! Read the rest of Angelique's article here:

How To Create Effective Diet Habits

While there is no magic formula that you can calculate that will guarantee you success in achieving your fitness goals, there are certainly a few key eating habits you can incorporate into your daily routine that can make all the difference between lean flat abs or a bloated belly. When done habitually, passionately and with patience and dedication, your body will react and respond to your new habits faster than you can say string bikini!

Listen to Your Body I am FASCINATED by the human body! I see my body as something sacred that I nurture each day, like a science experiment. It amazes me how the body responds to what you put into it. Once you listen closely to what your body is telling you, you will notice how it responds to the amount (and type) of food, exercise and rest that you give it. Remember, it is YOUR CHOICE how you care for your body- nobody else’s. You can either give it the best fuel available and fine-tune it like a Ferrari or let it rot like a 80s junk car waiting to be made into scrap metal. Get to know your body and focus on what it feels like when you are at your very best and just aim to feel that way every day of your life. Trust me, I know from experience how horrible my body feels after a night of drinking and bad food but more importantly I also know how wonderful I feel when I eat right, drink plenty of water and get my rest. I opt for the latter and so should you!
