Here's an excerpt from Yahoo articles that I wanted to share with you.
Jillian Michaels, trainer extraordinaire and new SELF contributor, also thinks jumping lunges are a fantastic firmer. "They just blast the heck out of your glutes while working hamstrings and other muscles in the legs." Try this sequence one to three times a week after your usual cardio plan. Quickly do one set of the indicated reps of each move; rest 90 seconds. Repeat up to two more times.
MOVE 1: 20 squats
MOVE 2: 20 lunges, alternating legs
MOVE 3: 20 jumping squats (in a fluid movement: squat, jump, squat)
MOVE 4: 20 jumping lunges (lunge forward with right leg and jump high. While in the air, switch legs and land with the left leg in front. Continue, alternating legs.
If you have knee problems or any lower-body injury, try step-ups, which tone glutes 59 percent more than squats, according to a study by the American Council on Exercise in San Diego. To try, hold a 5- to 8-pound dumbbell in each hand, then step left leg onto a bench. Step down on right leg. Do 12 reps, and go slow to avoid injury. Switch legs; repeat.

Sunday Morning Breakfast
Sunday morning breakfast at my house. I don't know the calorie count but this is better than what I used to eat. Visit my blog for details on how I cooked this.
I try to use only Organic eggs. My very favorite eggs are Egglands Best, but they are so expensive, and in my house we eat a lot of eggs, so I get the eggs in this video at Costco. I hope they are really organic like the carton says, but whatever. I scramble the eggs and I use Extra Virgin Olive Oil. I don't use salt when I cook because my family puts hot sauce on everything and that is just salt on top of salt. I do use garlic power and pepper though.
The best turkey bacon, well that my kids will eat, is Louis Rich. Which I buy at Costco of course. I cook it a pan. In a hurry people cook this in the microwave and it is pretty good out of the microwave. But, I like the old fashion pan on the stove way to cook it.
Grits are oddly hard to cook. The directions on the box are not good for my family so I don't really measure, I go by sight. But basically boil water, add desired amount of grits, I put a little milk, butter, yes real butter, a dash of sea salt, and black pepper.
Thanks for watching, see you next time.
