For the last few weeks, I have been following a routine by Kris Gethin on BodyBuilding.com. It's a lot of weight training - which is my favorite - and some cardio. I personalize every workout for my needs and I'm still getting a feel for this one.

Healthy Eating Tips:
Clean eating can do so much for your body. Keep it simple, keep it natural. Buy from the outer ring of the grocery store - fresh organic veggies and fruit, lean meats, organic eggs and milk, etc. Luckily, I live in a location where there are many organic and whole food stores close by. It really opens up options for variety!
My current favorite recipe is Quinoa Avocado Tacos from Food Babe. Using all organic ingredients and zero processed foods. Check out her site - she has a lot of great information and delicious recipes!
