  • You absolutely will be able to do this! Mind you, you wouldn't be lifting heavy.. but it's definitely an effective form of exercise. I train my father (in his late 60's) who has had shoulder surgery, and he is still able to lift.. just not anything too heavy and I usually need to customize his routines so he can preform…

  • You can try a detox to lose water weight.. the only other 'quick fixes' would be to possibly spray tan/use bronzer (I'm really against tanning beds). It can actually make you look slimmer because of how the color contours your body. Lemon water helps detox the body and curve appetite, cutting out complex carbs and sticking…

  • The less processed foods you eat, the less sodium you'll be taking in. It's a fairly simple fix. For instance salad dressings (even the non creamy ones) are considered processed.. They're also packed with sodium (to help preserve it and let it last longer). The more fresh non-processed foods you eat, the lower you're…

  • First, I don't personally believe in "quick results". That being said.. you may find that light weight lifting could be beneficial for you.

  • Honestly the best way to get on track is by meal prepping. Then you can bring how ever many meals/snacks you need during the day with you. I usually meal prep on Sundays (and yes my meals tend to be very repeatitive), then during the week they would go to class/work with me. It takes some dedication but it's super worth it.

  • If it's DOMS you should be okay, what I tell my clients is to listen to their bodies. As long as it is soreness (manageable) and not actual pain (sharp, persistent, throbbing) then a day or two to rest before doing the same workout is usually good. You do not want to strain these muscles though, so do remember to stretch…

  • Before and after photos are a great way of tracking progress because it allows you to really see the difference. Not only will it help keep you motivated (by seeing how far you've come), but it will absolutely help you stay accountable for yourself and keep you on track. If you do choose to do this I would suggest the…
