Finally!!!!!!!!
I slept last night! The entire night! The tea freaking worked! I feel so much better. Sleep is so awesome. My hubby wanted me to get pills, and when he saw the tea he said it was a total crock. Well, he drank some too and he slept better than he has in a long time. So ha! I guess mother nature trumps chemicals any day. I have to work tonight, but I am going to try and squeeze in a workout before I go. I am starting to wonder if I should do more cardio to burn more fat, or just keep doing my regular workout? I read in an article today (via my wonderful Beachbody coach, Amber) that you have to get through all the fat in order to see the muscle, so cardio is a good idea to burn off the fat. It got me thinking: someone my size may benefit more from cardio than just a regular workout. If anyone has any pointers, feel free to comment. I am going to try the Turbo Jam Cardio Party today and see if I can survive. LOL. Until tomorrow....

Muscle burns fat!!! Comes from Chalene herself! (Chalean Extreme!) I would do cardio at least 5x a week. Then add weights in 2x a week. It doesn't have to be anything crazy, just something to start building strength up. When you have more muscles, you burn more calories.
ReplyDeleteMuscle burns fat! ! lb of muscle burns 6 calories to a lb of fat's 1 calorie. But you are right, at your size I would do lean weight training a couple times a week and focus on cardio the most. You know I did P90X before and I am doing TurboFire now because I wanted to get the extra 20 lbs of fat off all the muscle I build, my focus is fat loss, but I still bust out the CLX 2-3 times a week and do a lean month workout, just to keep it going. I think the cardio focused combo of both is a great plan for you too!
