How Often Should I Change my Flat Stomach Workout and Other Questions Answered

I get asked TONS of questions on a daily basis — fitness, diet, supplement, workout gear — everything under the sun! Many questions I know I have had and I’m sure you have too — so I thought I’d do a quick Q&A to help all of us out!

Q: How often should I change my sneakers?

A: You should change your sneakers every 6-7 months – depending on how much wear and tear they are getting. If you are running miles in them everyday – you may need to replace them sooner depending on how the tread on the bottom is doing. If you are only wearing them to the gym to lift weights and aren’t doing any heavy pounding you may be able to go a bit longer.

Q: Should I be drinking protein shakes? I feel like I’m going to look like a man if I do that.

A: YES! YES! and NO! NO! Yes — you should be drinking protein shakes. Most women do not consume enough protein on a daily basis. Having a protein shake is a great way to get in a quick meal – that is good for you. The best type of quick post-workout nutrition is a protein shake. Having a protein shake post-workout will help your muscles repair faster and allow you to continue to burn fat. Add a scoop of protein powder into the blender — add  a banana, some peanut butter and ice and you have yourself a complete healthy meal! Not to mention a sweet treat!

No — it will not make you look like a man. You would have to eat TONS and TONS of protein and even then it just would not happen!!

Q: Should I change up my flat stomach workout? If so – why? And how often?

A: Changing your workout every few weeks is a GREAT idea! Why? Changing your workout most importantly keeps YOU entertained.  A lot of people think their workouts get boring and therefore will stop going to the gym because they ‘always do the same stuff’. Not only will you be more excited for the change but your muscles will as well.

If you do the same workout and exercises day after day and week after week – your muscles begins to get adapted to those movements and routines. Eventually your muscles will become so adapt that you will not see any forward progress. Using different exercises works different muscles in each muscle group — allowing your muscles to continue to grow and change  — burning more fat and helping you see even better weight loss results!
