A GET-UP-OFF-THE-COUCH WORKOUT YOU CAN DO IN YOUR LIVING ROOM!

THIS IS A SIMPLE FOUR-EXERCISE CIRCUIT YOU CAN DO DURING THE COMMERCIALS OF YOUR FAVORITE TV PROGRAM, WHICH WILL KEEP YOU MOBILE, STRONG AND STABLE. It’ll take 15 minutes, and you’ll do one set of each exercise during each commercial break, or four sets consecutively depending on how hard you want to work! Each exercise has modifications if needed.

Sets: 4 Reps: 10 of each exercise Time: Around 15 minutes BREAK DANCER Start in a hands and knees position with your knees floating off the ground. Release your right hand and fit your left leg through the space where your right hand was. Bring the leg and hand back to start, and repeat on opposite side. This move is great for flexibility and core stabilization.

LUNGE WITH OVERHEAD REACH Standing with feet together and arms at your sides, take a lunge step out and down, raising your arms above your head simultaneously. You should feel a stretch from your back leg up into your abdomen. Step back and return to starting position. Repeat with other leg. This movement will strengthen the legs as well as open up tight hips we get from constantly sitting.

WINDMILL Start with your feet parallel to each other facing where 11 is on a clock. Put your left arm down inside your left thigh and your right arm up in the air. Keeping your right arm vertical, slowly push your hips back and to the right, sliding your left hand down your left leg. Push your hips forward to the left, returning to the start position. Flip your feet parallel pointing towards one on a clock, switch hand positions and repeat. This movement is a great hip opener, shoulder stabilizer and core strengthener.

SIDE LUNGE WITH FLOOR TOUCH With your feet together, take a step sideways towards the left, and try to sit down and back on that left hip. While sitting down, try to touch your hands to the floor without excessively leaning forward. Return to the start position, and repeat on the right side. This exercise is a wonderful leg strengthener and glute builder.

CYCLING

THE AREA’S HOTTEST WORKOUTS

YOGA

CYCLING CYCLEBAR HENDERSON BOUTIQUE FITNESS STUDIOS HAVE POPPED UP NOT ONLY IN LAS VEGAS BUT AROUND THE COUNTRY AS WELL. The goal of these studios is to focus on a couple of fitness classes, like cycling or Pilates, and give them a personal approach. CycleBar Henderson is the perfect place to practice this trend.

“Boutique fitness is a huge growing trend in the U.S., especially cycling classes,” Gregorio Serrata from CycleBar Henderson explains. “People are tired of the impersonal big-box approach. They want personal attention and specific training for their favorite fitness discipline.

YOGA KIMBERLY CASTELLO YOGA While yoga itself has been practiced for years upon years, Kimberly Castello, a yoga therapist, stresses the fitness trend of slow being the new fast.

“Yoga is a proven technique for soothing the nervous system and bringing the body back into balance,” she says. “Although it has been used extensively and successfully throughout the Eastern cultures where yoga began, we are beginning to experience the benefits here in the West.”

Kimberly stresses the importance that yoga has by how it can help people de-stress and slow down in their everyday lives. By focusing on deep breathing techniques and bringing together mind and body, the practice of yoga can remind you it’s okay to take time to be slow in your fast-paced life.

THE AREA’S HOTTEST WORKOUTS

(CON TI N UED)

FSY TREAD CLASSES FSY FITNESS A new trend in Las Vegas is available through FSY Fitness. In FSY Tread classes, athletes push themselves in new ways.

“Tread combines cardio and functional strength training to create the HIIT class you’ve been searching for,” Scott Lobenberg at FSY says. “Not only will you have an incredible workout, but you will continue to burn calories long after.”

A 45-minute long workout, FSY Tread is a high-intensity interval training class that consists of intervals on the treadmill and the floor using a variety of equipment. With each interval ranging from 3-10 minutes, this workout aims to move athletes through different heart rate zones and will get you in shape fast. Benefits include strength and flexibility improvement.

LOADED MOVEMENT TRAINING TONY CRESS TRAINING CENTER A new fitness trend gaining popularity in the last few years is a concept called loaded movement training. Tony Cress from Tony Cress Training Center breaks down loaded movement training by comparing it to resistance training.

“We typically think of resistance training as the external mass we apply to the human body, which is true,” Tony says. “The main way we apply this force is in a linear fashion—up and down, forward and backward, side to side, etc.—shifting the resistance, tilting the resistance, turning and rotating the resistance towards and away from the body.”

Loaded movement training comes with a

FSY TREAD CLASSES 20

vast amount of benefits, such as increasing heart health and lean muscles mass.

“An up-and-coming tool to utilize during LMT is the ViPR,” Tony says. “This tubelike apparatus comes in multiple sizes to challenge beginners as well as conditioned athletes in the same workout. In an hourlong workout, you’ll expand your movement capabilities, condition your whole body and burn up to 800 calories.”

FOOD & WINE

(C ON TI N U ED)

In the plant world, color and hue rule in terms of disease-fighting capability. Each color represents different benefits and the deeper the color, the more benefit there is.

Red

For example, red foods, like tomatoes, have lycopene which may play a role in helping to reduce the risk of prostate cancer. + Tomatoes, strawberries, watermelon, raspberries

Purple

Purple plants, like blueberries and eggplants, have anthocyanins, which have been found to help benefit the brain. + Eggplant, blueberries, plums, beets

Green

Green plants provide multiple benefits that improve health; two of my favorites—broccoli and kale—have high amounts of lutein and folate which can help enhance eye, brain and heart health. + Broccoli, spinach, kale, green tea, avocado, celery, snap peas

Orange

Some orange foods, like sweet potatoes and carrots, are packed with vitamin A, and other orange foods, like oranges and nectarines, are loaded with vitamin C. + Oranges, carrots, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, orange peppers, peaches

White

White is the color of allicin, found in vegetables like cauliflower, white onions and garlic, which helps protect against heart disease. + Cauliflower, bananas, white onions, garlic, parsnips

Black

Black foods, like black beans, black rice and blackberries, are high in anthocyanin, a pigment that has been linked to reducing cancer cell proliferation. + Black beans, blackberries

The point is, variety is key, and keeping a colorful plate will always serve you better than focusing on one simple color.

Track your fruit and vegetable consumption with Lose It!—a personal, app-based weight loss program used by millions of people around the world. Founded in 2008, 72 percent of Lose It!’s users have achieved clinically significant weight loss according to a 2016 study with the National Institute of Health.
