Hi Everyone,

My name is Connie and I've been trying to condition my body to look leaner. I'm looking for muscle definition, to lose the fat, and tone up. At the same time, I do want to increase my body's endurance and get stronger. I've been trying to sculpt my arms, mid-section and legs.

It's a really slow process and I'm just looking for some encouragement from others to stay motivated. Trying to keep a good diet is hard. I'm always overindulging in junk food and I don't have any self-control. I'm going to try this food logging to see if it helps.

Connie

    Connie, I see this post is from a while ago, but I figured I would try.

    If you are wanted a leaner, stronger look and want to increase your fitness I have two roads you might want to try.

    1. If you enjoy the gym look for a book called Bigger, Leaner, Stronger. It has a lot of solid info and a great workout plan.
    2. If you want to work out at home, I would look and ask around to see if any of your friends have a copy of Insanity or P90X.

    In order to be stronger, and look leaner you have to build muscle. I used the BLS program while I was in Okinawa and it works great as long as you are pushing yourself and keeping yourself honest with the number of sets and form. P90X is a great system as well, but once again you have to push yourself.

    I hope this helps.
