Ladies – you have to work your chest!

“If I work out my chest I will lose my boobs.” False – if you spend one day a week doing chest-strengthening exercises you will actually keep “things” up where you want them to be, increase strength, improve posture, and feel better overall.

Today on Tone and Tighten I wanted to share with you one of my favorite at-home chest workouts you can do with just a pair of dumbbells.

Here we go!

Did you know that 31 million Americans skip breakfast everyday? And more men than women choose not to eat this morning meal (the best meal, in my humble opinion!).

People who skip breakfast are more likely to be overweight and have health problems. It’s worth it to take a few minutes for breakfast.  

For many, the excuse for not eating breakfast during the busy week is that they just don’t have time.

Well, I am here to solve all your problems! [Okay, maybe not all your problems, but at least your lack-of-time-for-breakfast problems.] 

Take 30 minutes one night and whip up these breakfast burritos and you will have more than enough to last you for the entire week. Plus, they are loaded with good food that will keep you energized throughout the morning.

Get the recipe below.

This workout is perfect for outdoors or indoors – if you are outdoors, find a local high school stadium or even a building with a large flight of stairs (I have a church in my neighborhood that has a great flight of cement stairs I use). If you are indoors, use the stairs in your house, the flight of stairs that leads up to your apartment, or even the stairs in a hotel. There is no excuse to not try this workout!

For this workout, I used a flight of stairs that had 20 stairs. If yours has less stairs (i.e. only 10), double the time or reps of each exercise for a killer workout!

Want to push yourself? I have included challenge exercises to try if you are an experienced stair climber!

Trying to eat more vegetables?

Many readers (and even my wife!) have mentioned that the hardest part of the Four Week Challenge is making sure to eat enough vegetables every day.

This recipe is one of our favorites- I promise that even those who don’t love vegetables will love them! Something about roasting them in the oven makes them so sweet and delicious.
