Join Miss Florida Kellie Newsome with her Ab Workout About Me: Age: 29, Height: 5' 0", Weight: 104 lbs, Waist: 24", Hips: 35", Resides: Florida Hi Guys My workout schedule consists of at least 30 minutes of cardio, five days a week.  I teach step, spinning, boot camp, glutes and abs, and power sculpting. When I can't workout at the gym, running on the treadmill or in my neighbourhood is my choice of exercise.  To maintain muscle tone, I hit the weight room at least twice a week, outside of my sculpting classes.  People are afraid to workout in the weight room. They are intimidated by the equipment, and are afraid to look bulky.  What they don't understand is that weight lifting burns twice the fat that cardio does, and you can create any look you want by understanding how your body responds to the resistance.

The key, though, to any definition of any muscle group, is to be lean.  If you are going to work hard to lose weight or lean up, you must have the right diet program to go along with it.  My diet is a lot more lenient than my days of competing.  No one wants to live on chicken, potatoes and vegetables every day.  However, the principles behind a competition diet have stuck with me.  I believe that if you lower your carbohydrate intake and increase protein, (as well as cut back on the snacks), you are bound to see improvements.  Protein is needed for muscle growth, and the KEY to weight loss and muscle definition is...BURN MORE CALORIES THAN YOU TAKE IN!!!  This is my key to diet and living every day.  Have a little indulgence here and there, reward yourself for hard work, but don't over-do it on anything.  Balanced meals of protein, carbs and vegetables, as well as a LOW SODIUM intake, help me stay fit.  By moving more, and concentrating on building the abdominals, you can sculpt and tone your way to the six pack of your dreams.  It's all in how badly someone wants it!
