Booty Focused Cardio Training

Looking for ways to lift your tush or build a booty? We won't lie - it ISN'T easy but it can be done! With proper weight training (try our She Sweats 12-Week Transformation) and "Booty Focused" cardio training you can achieve that backside you are looking for! Instead of using running as your only cardio try one of the following forms of cardio that will help you build your booty.

Stair Climber or Stair Stepper - Hop on this machine and don't hold on! Work your way up - can only do 5 minutes at first? No problem! Record your stats and try for longer next time.

Walk or Jog Uphill - Want to get your cardio in outside? Instead of looking for a flat place to run try out a hilly section and/or do hill sprints. Run as fast as you can up the hill and time yourself. Try to beat your best time next chance you get. I bet you might even start looking and craving for hills to sprint up! {No joke!}

Inline on Treadmill - Bad weather outside? No problem! Hop on your treadmill and set the incline as high as you can without holding on! Try the incline at 6-15% and speed at 2.6-3.2 MPH. Remember, record what you were able to accomplish and keep building on that.

It's important that you do "Booty Focused" Cardio Training {when incorporating cardio} but it's also very important to not overlook the importance of weight training!

Clean Eating Cinnamon Vanilla Oatmeal

After returning home from a trip to California I didn't have much food prepped but I needed protein and carbs to fuel my workout so I make proats! Proats = Protein + Oats. They were so delicious! It was the perfect pre-workout meal for me and I've eaten it almost every day for breakfast since! Make them Gluten-Free by using Gluten-Free oats!

CINNAMON VANILLA PROATS

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup rolled or quick cooking gluten free oats
• 1 packet TLS whey protein
• 2 Tbsp unsweetened almond milk
• 1 Tbsp pasteurized liquid egg whites
• 1/2-1 packet Truvia
• 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract (avoid HFCS)
• Cinnamon, to taste
• Sea Salt, to taste

Directions:

1. Add hot (boiling) water to oats mixture
2. Add almond milk and egg whites
3. Heat in microwave for 30 sec to 1 min
4. Add protein powder and other remaining ingredients and stir
5. Enjoy

What is your favorite breakfast food?

Gluten-Free Cinnamon Rolls

Have you tried our Guilt Free Cinnamon Roll recipe? If you like that, you are going to LOVE this one! It's definitely more on the "treat" side of the clean eating spectrum (as in don't eat this everyday), but they are so amazing! You are going to love this recipe just the same, if not more! Here goes...

Eat Clean Gluten Free Cinnamon Rolls

Ingredients:

Dough:

• 1/2 c gluten free oat flour
• 1/3 c almond flour
• 1/4 c arrowroot flour 
• 2 TBSP coconut palm sugar OR demerara sugar
• 4 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp sea salt, finely ground
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 4 TBSP coconut oil, room temperature 
• 3/4 c unsweetened almond milk

Filling:

• coconut oil, room temperature
• 1/4 c stevia, powdered
• 3 TBSP cinnamon

Directions:

1. Begin making the dough first. Combine dry ingredients in a food processor and pulse to combine and create a softer flour mixture, on and off for 45-60 seconds. Add wet ingredients and mix to combine.

2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

3. Combine filling ingredients in a small bowl.

4. Place dough on a floured surface (I would suggest using the arrowroot flour for this) and roll out to flatten to approximately 1/4"-1/3" thickness. Try to roll the dough in a rectangular shape.

5. Brush a small amount of coconut oil evenly on the dough. 

6. Sprinkle the filling mixture evenly across the moistened dough.

7. Roll the dough starting at one end until it is all contained. Using a pizza wheel, cut the dough into approximately 8-9 cinnamon rolls.

8. Place on a cookie sheet approximately 1.5" apart OR in a round pan, close together for softer cinnamon rolls.

9. Bake approximately 14 minutes.

Makes 8-9 cinnamon rolls.
