This is seriously a no joke workout… no matter how ‘fit’ or athletic you are, it is a true high intensity, high-calorie burning interval total body workout. It will make you work every inch of your body and breed both physical and performance transformative results.
If it’s your first time through or you’re new to this type of exercise (yes, even you crazy endurance athletes) this will give you a run for your money.
FIT TIP: Do you do tons of exercise and cardio and still have a belly? It is a really common thing, and it turns out that it’s not the long cardio that’s going to tighten you up…it’s the high intensity body shocking intervals!

And for the Healthy Diet add on this Crispy Low Calorie Brussels Sprout Chips!
Obsessed with this high-fiber, and low-calorie salty snack! As much as we love potato chips and French fries, convincing me Brussels sprouts would be a good alternative was not easy, until we started making them this way~
We never thought Brussels sprouts could become one tasty side dishes! They are one of those ‘so darn nutrition packed’, how can they possibly taste good?
With this recipe, not only will you be loving them, but they are a GREAT side dish at any dinner party.
Volunteer to bring a dish and at least you know you have one super light’n’healthy part of your meal no matter what else is served.
Ingredients
Non-stick cooking spray
Brussel Spouts (as many as desired)
Black Pepper and pinch of salt
Amino Acid Sauce or Low Sodium Soy Sauce
1 Whole Egg or 2 Egg-whites (or as many as desired depending on amount of brussel sprouts.
Directions
*Preheat oven to 375°F.
Cut off the bottom tip of each sprout. Then slice length-wise into 3-4 slices (depending on size of the sprout). Of coarse you can make chips by peeling the leaves back but that is extremely tedious and I don’t really get the ‘fix’ by eating the thin leaves. But you’re call!
Mix your egg(whites) with a few tablespoons amino or low sodium soy sauce and toss them over the sprouts. I put them in a ziplock bag and pour in the sauce and shake around to get them evenly coated.
Lay them on your baking pan (pre sprayed with non-stick cooking spray).
*Sprinkle with salt.
Bake for 8 minutes, then up temperature to about 415 and bake for another 3-5 minutes or until crispy. Every oven is a bit different so just keep an eye on them the first time and you will get to know exactly what works!
Enjoy!
