Get Fabuliciously Firm Thighs Fast!

28 Mar

High Volume Leg Training – Sexy Shapely Thighs

If you want to get in better shape faster, then stand up, get off your seat and work on your lower body.

Training your lower body makes your entire body shape up faster. Isn’t that what you want? Faster, quicker fat loss while sculpting and shaping?

If the answer is yes! Then it’s time to Get Your Pump on.

High volume (high reps combined with multiple sets of each exercise) is perfect if you want to lose fat, increase your metabolism and shape up your lower body.

A high volume program works faster and is much more effective in getting cuts without using massive weight.

Use low intensity weights, enough so that you can do 15 to 20 reps easy the first time.

Using volume training you do as many reps as you can, between 15 to 20 reps per set.

Then you do 4 to 5 sets of your chosen exercises.

Move quickly through your routine. Try to work so that you are breathing
at a good pace to pump up the intensity and increase your heart rate.

Try to make it aerobic so that you increase your circulation, increase your stamina and build up more endurance.

If you really want to see some fast amazing results. DROP all sugar from your diet and get on a Low-glycemic eating program. You can change the shape of your legs quickly if you get into and train like this 3-4 times per week.

Medium to high intensity cardio 4-5 times per week to super start your fat burning.

When you want to make a change, just frickin jump in and do it fast and furious! Do the most results oriented workout that can have you looking totally fabulicious in no time.

Cover Model Secrets for a Six Pack!Shrink Your Waistline and Get Tight Sexy Abs

Maximum Abs – A Cover Model Secret Weapon for A Six-Pack

As a fitness celebrity who has to be camera ready without a moment’s notice,  I have to say I love my abs.  I am proud of them because they are perfectly balanced for my body!

They are flat, strong, sexy and look fantastic in a bikini.  I NEVER stop doing MY workout and I love the music I use in my workout. I was not always happy with my abs. You should have seen my waistline when I wore a size 16! That’s right.. a round dimply cellulite laden fricking 16~

Along with my balanced fat loss Quick Start Program, (which made me lose over 60 pounds and I still follow today) I researched and found the perfect exercises for shrinking my waistline and giving me the perfect hourglass shape. It’s all in my Maximum Abs DVD that you can download today and start getting your sexy six-pack.

Maximum Ab Training combines the power of bodybuilding, grace and technique of dancers, the strength of an athlete and the stamina of sports.

There is NO One perfect style of movement.  But there are motions that are biomechanically safe and correct and gives YOU maximum results FAST.

What I have done is to take what I consider the best of all worlds and craft a workout and moves that draw elements of each genre of activities. The body is intricately designed ever evolving piece of art, it is a beautiful creation and there are so many wonderful different methods that if combined can make the best body ever! Therefore your workout plan should also involve many different elements form each of the highly respected and challenging fields of movement.

Watching a ballerina in the Nutcracker effortlessly move across a stage is breathtaking as is watching a world-class sprinter fly through the tape at the Olympics.

Growing up I was just as excited to watch an Alvin Ailey Dancer as I was to watch Michael Jordan float toward a basketball hoop. To me they were both beautifully gifted athletes with great strength and a solid core.

Expert Technique is Better Than Wasted Reps

Being a sports professional understanding movement from a trainer’s point of view, I realized Jordan had the same biomechanics the Ailey dancer had.  Both were powerful, strong and the best of the best.

LeBron James A Ballerina?

And being privileged enough to be a professional trainer at the same camp with LeBron James was even more educational.  He is so light on his feet, he is so strong and his abs are powerful.

You Deserve the Best Too!

Can you imagine? I got to dance with an Ailey dancer in Germany and worked with LeBron too?  WOW! How lucky am I and what a blessed career I have.  I totally consider it all a privilege. PLUS to get to work with YOU is even more special. Because YOU are special and deserve the best information just like the professionals to help you reach your goals.

I was a featured speaker and guest for the NBPA rookie training camp. The athleticism and grace was just as remarkable as the dancers in our World Dance Congress Conference in Germany.

Dancers as well as other athletes must keep their entire midsection engaged to perform rigorous moves and execute great balance. The core muscles of the abdominals and upper and lower back, butt, legs and calves have great demands on them during performance. Good balanced training workouts are designed with meets the demands plus develop the perfect shape.

As you sit, look down, how does your abs look, how do they feel? Are they tight and sculpted? Round and soft? Are they sticking out or scooped and hollow?

What Inspires Me To Dance and Stay Lean

15 Apr

OKAY.. you all keep asking me these questions.. I did an interview last week and here are the answers to two of the questions. I hope you are able to design your own proess for staying motivated to build your best body ever!! You can do it you know!

Victoria,
How do you maintain your enthusiasm and energy?
I have an unbridled passion for Movement!

I was born to move. I have danced and participated in some form of fitness and sports all of my life. I love the way I feel before (psyched) during (unstoppable) and after (exhilarated and liberated) I workout.

I am constantly setting three month goals with measurable stats and then I design a game plan. I find a group of like minded people with a similar desire and we train like world class athletes. I attract people who love music, dance and live to sweat. They make their health, their body and their longevity a priority. The programs are 12 weeks in length. I cut pictures out of magazines and write out my goals in my day planner and track them. I watch dance, sports and triumph themed movies. I have a great collection of all the best dance movies ever produced. I love watching music videos and going to live performances to see the creativity in costuming and choreography. I love sports too, so I watch everything from football to golf, to basketball to baseball. I watch reality shows like, “Dancing With the Stars”, “So You Think You Can Dance” to “The Olympics” to “The Best Damn Sports Show to “The Miss America Pageant:” to the “NCAA Basketball Women and Men’s Championships”! There are so many wonderful examples for me to gain inspiration and motivation from. I love them all and I draw something different from each of them that I use to develop a lifestyle of putting my workouts first!

*Describe your favorite workout.
My Vertical Training/Dance Jamm and Body Revival Workout! It is the absolute most fun class I have ever done in my entire career. I love coachng and I love pushing people to move beyond their perceived limitations. We all have self-assigned limitations that come from our backgrounds that serve no healthy purpose except to put us in a little box with little goals and little expectations. It makes me sp frustrated, I could scream. I only feel that way, because I used to live on that block of no-where land, USA!

Enough for my rant….
Back to my Three hour private training sessions.
We begin with a half an hour of cleansing moves to detox our system and get our bodies ready for a fat burning and cardio conditioning – Longevity workout. We begin with compression focused stretches, lyrical dance moves and ballet moves. Then we add 1 pound leg weights for tightening up our assets and weights 3 -5 pound hand weights for targeted upper and body tightening and lengthening exercises for 15 minutes. This is what i call a SLOW BURN. It is the type of training that realy sculpts the legs and produces a deep mucle burn. It hurts so good!

Then we go to moderate intensity 60% of Max Heart Rate for 45 minutes using dance funk and hip hop moves. After the fat burning we go into a 15 minute high intensity cardio endurance training at 80% of our Max. Heart Rate. We conclude with lyrical moves and athletic stretching. It is a fusion of dance/funk/weights/ and sports. It is inspiring and challenging.

I use a wide variety of slammin’ music and we even have themes some days like… “Paradise” Island wear..hip hop wear..Broadway themes, etc. The variety keeps it fresh and the workout yields tremendous results. Our bodies never get adapted to the workout and we get to keep it in a high metabolic state and lose body fat while increasing flexibility, endurance, aerobic conditioning and detoxing.

It completely changes a person’s life and seeing other people succeed is what give me the juice to get up every day and persevere. I love people and I love to move. When those two are combined the passion oozes out of me. That is what keep me inspired.
