3 Tips to Get Your Body Transformation off to a Great Start:

1. Progress Tracking. Print out a calendar for January, February, and March and each day write down in the square what your nutrition was like for that day.... Example: Write down Poor, Fair, Good, Great. This will help you in realizing that you need to make changes along the way if your nutrition is always poor or fair. Go one step further by having a nutrition journal and write down everything you eat down to the last little detail. This is the only way you will really know if you have to make changes and what those changes need to be.

Also write down what you did for a workout that day. Example: 30M Cardio Tread, or Bootcamp, or 20M Resistance, things like that. This will help with seeing if you are getting enough exercise in your week or not.

2. Motivation and Inspiration

What do I mean by these well simple, I use things like DVD's of my favorite bodybuilder's powerlifters, I use youtube to find some of these videos and watch them prior to a workout. Post inspiration messages around the house or awesome photos in your home office. Something that gets you going and keeps you inspired to keep going and reaching your goals.

3. Nutrition Reading Labels

Read Labels get used to reading the back of those foods you buy. The more you read the more you know and see that you might not be taking in the best foods to help you get fit and trim. It takes 3 extra seconds to turn the food around and find out what's in it. Stay away from extra high sugary foods!


Supplement of the Week

for more info on top quality supplementation. Supplementation is not the end all to burning fat and building muscle but it's the gap filler for a great nutrition plan.....

The Protein Shake: The Protein Shake is by far one of the best tools in a meal plans arsenol. Why? Simple, it's easy to prepare, you can drink it on the go.

Here are just a few things that Protein Shakes are great for:

1. Protein requires more calories to be digested, meaning that you burn calories with a higher protein diet.

2. Protein Shakes are great for before and after workouts. They aid in preserving muscle and helping you to recover from a killer workout.

3. Protein Shakes contain essential BCAA's (Branch Chain Amino Acids) which aid in Building Muscle.

These are just a few of the benefits from Protein Shakes. Remember if you want a high quality Protein Shake visit:
