Jillian Michaels has the health and body that pretty much anyone would die for, but it did not come without hard work!
In this month’s issue of Women’s Health magazine, one where Jillian totally rocks the cover, she opens up on her secret for sexy abs!
Here’s some of what she had to say:
“I did a poll on Facebook asking which area of your body you struggle with most, and the number one answer was abs. You can’t spot-reduce fat. You must burn calories to burn fat while you condition your abs.
“When your levels of cortisol–a fight-or-flight survival hormone–are high, it can put your body in fat-storage mode. So stress is one of the worst things, not only for your overall health but also for your metabolism. You want to eat things that are high in fiber and that keep moving through your body. For a lot of people, a ton of dairy can screw up digestion and cause bloating.
“If you’re getting on one of those gym ab machines and crunching 100 pounds, pass. You could hurt your back, and you don’t want the thick bulk.”
It wasn’t all business during the interview, no way!
She was even asked what she thought about Beyoncé:
“I just love that she is sexy and feminine and has curves but is still really fit. To dance the way she does–she’s an incredible athlete.”
And Madonna:
“It’s ridiculous how she’s kept fit at 53. Obviously, she means business.”
And Jennifer Aniston‘s tummy as well:
“She’s always doing yoga or out on a run. She’s not too skinny. And she’s not obsessed about it. She just always looks good.”
We feel that SAME about those ladies! Such fitness inspirations!
Along with you, of course, Jillian! Ha!
Hope all is well!
