OK! SHARES EASY TIPS AND TRICKS TO TAKE
Your
SET A GOAL
Karlie Kloss knows firsthand that
working toward a specific event
is a great way to help you stay
motivated. “Running a marathon is
something I never dreamed I would
do,” said the Project Runway host,
26, who trained for months to get
ready for the 2017 race. “It was one
of the greatest physical and mental
challenges that I ever willingly
signed up for!”TRACK YOUR PROGRESS
Fitness trackers, like Fitbit
— a favorite among celebs
like Maria Menounos, 41,
and Carrie Underwood, 36
— are a great way to boost
your conditioning and
improve your overall heath.
The gadgets record your
daily exercise, weight and
sleep patterns, allowing you
to see your progress over
time.DO THIS,
NOT THAT!
Forget about regular
old situps — up your
ab game with planks!
The no-equipment
exercise — in which
you maintain
a pushup-like
position for an
extended
period of time
— is said to be
a much more
effective way
to tone your
tummy. It’s
also what
dancing
pro Julianne
Hough, 31,
calls her
“go-to
prebikini
flat-ab
move,”
adding,
“You can go
anywhere, get on the
ground, and do
them.” We’re sold!REMEMBER TO REFUEL
After working up a sweat, it’s
important to replenish your body
with the nutrients it needs.
Whipping up a tasty recovery
protein smoothie (we suggest
mixing fruits, veggies, nuts and
two scoops of your favorite
protein power) will not only aid in
muscle recovery, it’ll help you feel
fuller the rest of the day.
