    FITBLRS: YOUR WORKOUT FOR TODAY IS HERE.

    IMPORTANT NOTE: STRECH BEFORE EVERYTHING AND DO AT LEAST 15 MINUTES OF CARDIO FOR WAY BETTER RESULTS AND LESS CHANCES OF DAMAGING YOUR MUSCLES.

    IF YOU DON’T HAVE A IDEA OF HOW YOU CAN START, YOU CAN EITHER GO OUT FOR A JOG.. OR IF YOU DON’T FEEL LIKE GOING OUT YOU CAN JOG IN PLACE, OR DO THE MUD RUN, OR JUST DO JUMPING JACKS. (DONT CHOOSE THE EASIEST ONE, CHOOSE THE ONE WILL WORK YOU FASTER AND BETTER, REMEMBER YOU ARE THE ONE WHO DECIDES YOUR PATH)

    HAVING SAID THAT..

    (IN THE SAME ORDER, DO A SET OF EACH AND THEN GO TO NEXT EXERCISE TILL YOU FINISH THE WHOLE CYCLE AND THEN REPEAT, EX: AB CHOPPERS: A SET, THEN NEXT EXERCISE PUSHUPS THE SET OF 10… TILL THE LAST ONE, WHEN YOU DO THE 20 OF THE BRIDGE, DO 20 OF THE AB CHOPPER AND CONTINUE THE CYCLE)

    1. AB CHOPPER. 3 SETS OF 20 (REMEMBER TO TUCK IN YOUR TUMMY)
    2. PUSH UP. 3 SETS OF 10 (PUSH IT, YOU CAN DO IT)
    3. CHAIR DIP. 3 SETS OF 10 (YOU WANT THOSE NICE BOOBIES)
    4. PLANK. 3 SETS OF 30 SECS (THINK ABOUT THAT BODY YOU WANT. YOU CAN HAVE IT)
    5. SIDE PLANK 3 SETS OF 30 SECS (NOBODY LIKES THOSE MUFFINTOPS)
    6. BYCYCLE CRUNCHES. (IF YOU DON’T WANT THOSE ROLLS SHOW UP WHEN YOU SIT ADD 10 MORE TO EACH SET)
    7. BRIDGE:3 SETS OF 20 (YOU WANT THAT ROUND, LIFT BOOTY, YOU DON’T WANT IT TO LOOK LIKE A SAND BAGGAGE, DO YOU? LEGGO)

    That, was. imppresive. Do this. Everytime you feel like you can’t, JUST DO IT. you’ll feel undefeated, more attractive, full of energy, but won’t lie.. that will hurt in the morning.. but remember.. IF IT DOESN’T HURT.. THEN YOU ARE NOT DOING IT RIGHT..

    PS: I apologize for the caps

      Chocolate Monkey Peanut Butter Bites

      (raw and gluten-free)

      • 1/4 cup plus 1 tbsp cocoa powder
      • 1/4 cup virgin coconut oil, melted
      • 20-30 nunaturals vanilla stevia drops (or 3-4 tbsp liquid sweetener, such as agave)
      • 1/2 a banana (see “nutrition info” link below for all substitution notes in this recipe)
      • tiny pinch salt
      • optional: 1-2 tbsp peanut butter (or pb2, or another nut butter)

      Combine first three ingredients in a bowl and stir until it makes a chocolate sauce. Pour a little of the sauce (saving the rest for later) into the bottoms of cupcake liners, mini cupcake liners, or candy molds. Then freeze 8-10 minutes. Meanwhile, blend (or mash and stir with a fork) the banana, salt, and optional ingredients. Take liners out of the freezer and top each with banana mixture. Now evenly distribute the rest of the chocolate and re-freeze until solid. This recipe makes 9-10 mini cups (as shown in the photos).

      Per chocolate-banana cup:

      • Calories: 50
      • Fat: 3g
      • Carbs: 5g
      • Protein: .5g
      • Fiber: 1g
      • WW Points (new system): 1

      Please note that the recipe yield will depend on whether you use cupcake liners, candy molds, or something else entirely. Above information was calculated based on 10 chocolate-banana cups. Add 10 calories and 1 gram of fat to the listed amount if using the optional peanut butter.

      Substitution Notes:

      For the coconut oil: You can omit the coconut oil and cocoa, instead simply melting chocolate chips and using the melted chocolate as your “sauce” part of the recipe.

      For the banana: Well, of course you can just fill the cups with peanut butter (or another nut butter, or nut-free butter, of choice). Not sure how pumpkin would work as a substitute… it might be a fun experiment!

            Breakfast Banana Pops

            (2 bananas makes 4 pops)

            • bananas (Or try this idea with strawberries, pineapple, etc.)
            • yogurt of choice (Wholesoy, Almond Dream, Silk, etc.)
            • granola of choice, or crushed cookies, or even S’mores Graham Crackers
            • add-on ideas: mini chocolate chips, coconut shreds, cinnamon sugar, raisins, etc.
            • popsicle sticks or silverware to insert in the bananas

            Procedure: Pour granola into a very shallow dish or plate. Peel bananas, cut in half, and insert popsicle sticks. Dip into yogurt (or coat with a knife), then roll into granola and add-ons. (I stuck the chips on by hand, after rolling in the granola.) Place on a parchment or wax-lined tray and freeze. Keep uneaten pops in the freezer.

            Per Banana Pop:

            • Calories: 90
            • Fat: 0.5 g
            • Carbs: 20 g
            • Protein: 3.5 g
            • Fiber: 4.5 g
            • ww points (new system): 1 point per pop (Note: Bananas are worth zero ww points, so they don’t add anything to the points value of this recipe.)

            Disclaimer: the above nutritional info is a rough estimate. We didn’t measure the amounts of each ingredient and so I guestimated we used 1 tbsp granola and 1 tbsp yogurt per banana pop. Also, nutritional info may vary based on the brands of yogurt and granola you choose. Info is based on Galaxy Not Sweet Vanilla granola and Wholesoy yogurt.

            Substitution notes: I already know someone is going to ask what can be subbed for the bananas. Use your imagination: strawberries, grapes, pineapple…

              is cous cous a healthy substitute for rice?

              I would say stay away from cous cous, usually it’s high in fat, try quinoa or brown rice, go to http://allrecipes.com/ and try to find a healthy one for cous cous if you want it, I would say try quinoa or brown rice :)

                Rena’s Oatmeal Cupcake/Muffin

                Ingredients:

                -1/4 cup oatmeal

                -1/8 cup carbonated water

                -1/8 cup raisins

                -1/3 cup apple sauce

                Directions: Mix all the ingredients up in a microwaveable cup. Add more oats or carbonated water as you see fit- you want a thick mixture(not watery).

                Microwave for 2 minutes. (Add more time as needed- you want it to be basically hard and solid on the outside- it will still be a little gooey and mushy inside.)

                Flip the coffee mug upside down on a plate and tap the bottom of the cup until the “cupcake” falls out.

                Top with icing or any topping you want- I used peanut butter. Enjoy!:)

                      Healthy Low Cal Lasagna

                      A healthy, low calorie and high protein lasagna recipe that uses fat free cheese, low fat beef, frozen spinach and whole wheat lasagna noodles.

                      Ingredients

                      • 1½ lbs of lean ground beef
                      • 6 oz. whole wheat lasanga noodles
                      • 2.5 cups Hunts traditional spaghetti sauce
                      • 2 cups fat free cottage cheese
                      • 9 oz. pkg. frozen spinach (cooked as directed and drain excess water)
                      • 8 egg whites
                      • 8 oz. mushrooms
                      • 1 cup fat free mozzarella cheese
                      Cooking Instructions

                      This recipe submitted by Vicki Ahlstrom.

                      Great thing about this is that you can add or substitute a lot of the ingredients to make it just a little different each time. I know it’s not one of those super pretty lasagnas where the cook carefully layers each ingredient, but it’s still wonderful!

                      • Cook ground beef until brown.
                      • Boil noodles as directed by package.
                      • Spray a 9”x13” pan with cooking spray and spread a few tablespoons of the spaghetti sauce on the bottom of the pan.
                      • Mix the rest of the ingredients, except for the fat free mozzarella cheese.
                      • Lay down ½ of the noodles and top with half of the cottage cheese mixture.
                      • Layer with the rest of the noodles and top with the other half of the mixture.
                      • Lastly, put the fat free cheese on top.

                      Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes.
