muffintop-less: I get a lot of “asks” about how to get a 6 pack or how to get the “V-lines” on the lower abs. The thing that is important to realize, is that the SHAPE of your abs is determined by genetics. You can of course improve them through strength training, but you cannot change their general shape. For example, I tend to have that lower V-line on my lower abs.. even before I started training them! Until your body fat is low enough to where you can see them, you won’t really know what you’re workin’ with! You can unveil those abs by getting rid of the overlying fat on top… since it’s impossible to spot-reduce fat, you have  to lower your OVERALL body fat percentage. Get rid of stubborn fat by: Eat clean in a caloric deficit Cut out simple carbs, junk food, sodas, condiments and sugary/processed foods Control blood sugar by eating small meals every few hours Consume lean protein at each meal Incorporate healthy fats & fibrous vegetables into your meals  Lift weights  Incorporate some HIIT cardio a few times a week Drink plenty of water  For those of you who have a Facebook, I’m finally on there! I’ve been posting a variety of things from nutrition, to training, to motivation and recipes. I hope you enjoy it as much as my Tumblr! <3 https://www.facebook.com/MuffinTopL3SS
muffintop-less: 8 Health Benefits of Blueberries Cancer - Several compounds in blueberries are known cancer fighters, such as resveratrol, flavanols, and anthocyanins. One impressive study found that the phytochemicals in blueberries worked together to stop the growth and spread of triple-negative breast cancer, a type of breast cancer that carries a poorer prognosis than other forms of breast cancer. Alzheimer’s Disease - Researchers believe that consumption of blueberries may help prevent the cognitive decline associated with Alzheimer’s disease. One recent study found that consumption of wild blueberry juice improved memory in seniors. Hepatitis C - Studies have found that a chemical in blueberry leaves can slow the progression of disease in people infected with hepatitis C. Heart Disease - The antioxidants and many other wonderful properties of blueberries all contribute to a stronger heart and cardiovascular function. Urinary Tract Infections - Studies have found blueberries to be potentially helpful in preventing urinary tract infections by inhibiting the growth of the bacteria that cause these infections. Cholesterol - Studies in mice have found that a compound in blueberries lowers cholesterol as effectively as statin drugs but without the side effects. Blood Pressure - Animals studies have found that blueberry consumption helped to regular blood pressure. Antioxidants - Blueberries are full of antioxidants and phytochemicals that help prevent disease, including anthocyanins, a potent antioxidant that helps to reduce inflammation.
