The Weekly Health Challenge: Level One
Try an organic dessert
I've heard so many excuses from people on this one. They don't want to eat 'healthy' desserts. Well, they're not healthy. But they are more filling, and more substantial.
I know, because I tried my cousin's organic homemade brownies. Much more filling than the kind I'd made from a box the night before. You're far less likely to overeat on something if it's filling. Give it a try!
The Weekly Health Challenge: Level Two
Pick a muscle you want to work, and then find an exercise to work it!
If you want to work the underside of your upper arms, try a triceps exercise. If you want to work your thighs, then maybe squats will be your choice. Core muscles (abs) then you might choose crunches or planks. But pick one, and then learn to do it properly.
Emphasis on properly. You can injure yourself by doing it improperly.
Extra Challenge: Do both challenges together!

My trainer has me work a muscle group each time. Rather than doing a full body workout, we concentrate on upper body, core, or lower body. It works out really well. We then rotate what we do. A ten minute intense cardio workout is always the beginning of any workout and then Stretches before the weights. Some days we also just concentrate on stretches. Throwing in a lot of extra stretches that I need assistance with to do.
