    Firming up!

    Hello Ladies!

    I am a total newbie to this business and will start my new job on the 22nd July! I live in South Africa and only recently made the decision to dance. The only problem is that I desperately need to firm up and lose abut 4 Kilos to be the weight I feel would keep me looking good.

    Obviously i have a limited amount of time here so I would really appreciate it if any of you had some tips and pointers on how to lose a few Kilos and how to firm up, BUM wise and FAST!

    I am quite lucky, i have the kind of body that does get rid of excess weight once i actually get going but how how how!?

    Thanks for your input!

    RUN. Run like there's no tomorrow. This will definitely help you lose excess fat fast. Also do weight and resistance training - 10-15 pound weights with high reps, leg curls for your hamstrings, and squats for quads and butt. Try to work out at least 4-5 times a week, or go every day if you can. Just take it easy some days to give your body a chance to rest, otherwise you'll be doing more harm than good by over-exercising.

    Also make sure to drink A LOT of water, and eat at least 4 meals a day (preferably 6) in very small portions - make sure to have a lot of protein in there (lean chicken breasts), fruits and veggies, and healthy carbs because you will NEED that energy for your runs. Brown rice and whole wheat bread and pasta.

    Also stay away from too much salt because all that will do is bloat you up, and avoid the sugar all together. Nothing will make you fatter than sugar - not even fat.

    Good luck!

    i second the running... i did a lot of walking, sometimes slowing down to take big big strides (looked like a dork, lol) and after not even a week my butt was SOOOO much firmer!
