Exercise Tip!

Let's face it, most people hate cardio, but cardio is essential to weightloss. Weight training is great for toning, but to lose weight you need to burn calories and to burn calories you have to get your heartrate up and to increase your heartrate you must do cardio. So if you hate cardio here's a tip: 

Bring you favorite book with you to your least favorite cardio machine or turn on your favorite tv show or movie if you have an at-home machine or netflix on your smartphone. Set a timer for 30 minutes or more. You'll get so engulfed in your book or show that you'll forget you're on the machine. 

Our least favorite machines are usually the ones you need the most, plus you must add variation to your workout so that your body doesn't become too accustomed to your workout and you stop making progress.
