Staying Focused during the Holiday Season!
Keep your mission for that dream body and don't let the Holiday season swing you off track. From Thanksgiving to New Year's Day, some people can gain up to 5 to 7 pounds (2.26 to 3.17 kilograms). Even if you only gain 1 pound (0.4 kilograms) during the holiday season, the weight adds up and can reach 10 to 20 pounds (4.5 to 9 kilograms) over a decade [source: Science Daily]. The holiday season can make keeping to a consistent workout routine difficult; between the chilly temperatures, shorter daylight hours, travel to visit with family, food-oriented gatherings and frantic shopping schedules, squeezing in physical activity is tough. But staying active during the holidays can be easier and more fun than you might think. At Dream Body Workouts, our goal is to give you a quick, effective, and impact effective workout that can fit into any schedule, so fit "getting fit" into your lifestyle! Don't wait for the same old New Year resolution! Get fit now and have more to celebrate this holiday season! www.dreambodyworkouts.com

Diet Myths Exposed!
Dr. Oz is right on with these 5 diet myths. For the most
part, I agree with what is suggested. However, let me add that pasta with
enriched or white flour is NEVER good with any portion. :) Knowledge is power!
Get your Dream Body today!
Diet Myth #1: Diet Soda Helps You Lose Weight Most diet
sodas are lower in calories than regular soda because they don’t use regular
sugar. The problem here is the artificial sweeteners, which have been tied to
weight gain. Why? Research shows that artificial sweeteners stimulate taste
receptors that sense sweetness in both the esophagus and stomach. Anticipating
energy, the pancreas releases insulin, an important hormone for accumulating
body fat. At the same time, chemicals are sent to the brain’s satiety center,
which becomes confused as to whether or not the body is actually receiving
calories. As your body gets “tricked” by the sugar substitute, you crave more
food and become susceptible to overeating in order to feel satisfied. The
result? You feel even hungrier and less full, which can lead to weight gain.
Artificial sweeteners are more than 100 times sweeter than natural table sugar
– this is cause for concern since naturally sweet foods, like fruits, won’t
seem as sweet to a desensitized palate. Choose a healthier alternative, like a
glass of seltzer with lemon or lime, the next time you reach for a refreshment.
Diet Myth #2: The More Calories You Cut, the More Weight You
Lose It may seem counterintuitive, but cutting too many calories from your diet
can be bad for your waistline. Because 3500 calories equals about 1 pound of
fat, you would need to cut 3500 calories out of your diet each week to lose 1
pound a week. In order to do this, you’d have to cut 500 calories a day to lose
1 pound a week. The problem with severely restricting diets, however, is that
they jolt your body into “starvation mode,” preventing your body from burning
unwanted fat. This mechanism, which is thought to have evolved as a defense
against starvation, helps the body make the most of the calories it gets from
food and drink; the body, in order to keep functioning, then looks to get some
of it calories from lean muscle. This results in muscle loss. Less muscle means
a slower metabolic rate – and in this case, stalled weight loss.
Diet Myth #3: Pasta Makes You Fat The problem with pasta is
not the pasta itself – it’s more about portions. If you eat too much of
anything, and don’t burn it off, your body will store it as fat. So whether
it’s bread or pasta or rice, it’s about the volume and extra calories, not
about the carbohydrates themselves. Add to that the heavy sauces and
high-calorie cheeses, and no wonder pasta has such a bad rap. They key here is
practicing portion control. Pasta is okay in moderation. Dietitians recommend 2
or 3 ounces of uncooked noodles per person – or half of a one-pound box to
serve a family of four. Click here for a selection of delicious pasta recipes.
Diet Myth #4: Eating After 8 p.m. Will Make You Put on
Weight There is some truth to this myth. Dr. Oz recommends not eating after 8
p.m. because studies have shown that you are more likely to overeat and
misjudge how many calories you consume when you eat late. Fatigue may be to
blame here as it may cause you to eat too much of the wrong foods, causing you
to put on weight. However, it’s not the time of day that makes you gain weight
– it’s the extra calories! It does not matter when you consume the calories –
if you exceed your recommended calorie intake, what you don’t burn will be
stored as fat. Always be vigilant of how many calories you consume throughout
the day. A healthy woman should consume between 1800-2000 calories a day.
Diet Myth #5: Reduced Fat Foods Are Healthier Alternatives
Fat is one of the things that makes food taste good. When fat is removed from
foods, a lot of the flavor is removed as well. To make up for this, extras –
like sugars, chemicals and thickeners – are often added to enhance the flavor
and texture of these foods. These additives can be far worse for you and
sometimes just as fattening as full-fat food. Additionally, “low-fat” and
“fat-free” doesn’t mean low-calorie. Think about all the additives – they’ve
got to turn up somewhere, right? When looking at nutrition labels, keep your
eyes peeled for the sources of these calories and think twice about bringing
reduced fat foods into your home. Opt for fresh or whole foods – or buy the
full-fat food instead, but consume in moderation.

Get Started!
GET FIT, GET THAT
DREAM BODY!
Home workouts are an effective
approach and efficient solution for realizing your fitness goals. With the
growing issue of obesity in the world, much of the fitness industry now serves
as just another way of cashing in on the public's fears and ignorance.
Many so-called “experts” are
promoting ineffective products or supplements, which only repudiate the idea of
reaching one's goals. The truth is, at its core, working out is very simple and
straightforward and it serves as a tremendous method for self-improvement.
Despite popular belief, a large
investment of time and money is not required to develop an incredible physique.
Within the comfort of your own home, you can be on your way to creating a
leaner, more defined body in only a few hours a week.
It is important to first develop
the proper fitness philosophy in your mind before you can realize your goals
for your body. At Dream Body Workouts we believe physical fitness is really a
simple concept, which has been overly complicated in our society.
At Dream Body Workouts we strive
to follow an efficient exercise plan that focuses on muscle confusion and
workouts designed to build lean muscle and burn fat simultaneously. You've
probably witnessed the people at the gym or around your neighborhood that spend
hours running outside, straining on a treadmill, bike, or elliptical. Maybe
you’ve also noticed that much of the time, their efforts don’t seem to show any
noticeable improvement? Doing nothing but cardio is the biggest misconception
out there in improving how you look and shedding unwanted weight.
Now while true that you might lose some weight you really will
only achieve a "thinner" look. Reason being, running does not
build any lean muscle, and lean muscle is what you need for a healthy, strong,
sexy looking body.
Our Dream Body fitness routines
will progressively challenge your body so you can get the optimal results. Plus
we keep your busy schedule in mind, too. In what it takes you to warm up and
actually get to an effective state with traditional cardio programs, you'll
already be done with a fat shedding, muscle building workout with our
program!
There is a reason why circuit based, interval focused workouts
are all the rage. Proper and effective systems and routines are based on
another very key component. Your body is a "smart machine"and it will
get use to the same old workout and your gains will stop. It is important to
switch up your routines every month so that your muscles never get use to the
movements in the workout. Here at Dream Body Workouts we have technically
crafted, precision designed workouts that will get your cardio and muscle work
simultaneously… all packed into 20 minute routines! So, fit “getting fit” into
your schedule!
We have workouts that range body
part specific to the total body regiment that is sure to achieve those elusive
results you really want. The key is to go at your own pace and either do one
workout daily or combine 2-3 based on your fitness level and goals.
