1. Make breakfast a priority
If you want to be slim and healthy you never, ever miss breakfast. Make it a nutrition powerhouse like a fruit shake with protein supplement or high-fibre oatmeal, and you're less likely to overeat all day!
2. Before a big event, limit intake complex carboydrates a week before
Cutting out pasta, bread or potatoes, just at dinnertime, helps shed water weight for a "less puff, more buff" look.
3. Do lots of squats
They are the king of all exercises, in that they're a multi-joint movement and work the biggest muscle group of the body.
4. Lift the heaviest weights you can once a week
To see that great definition, you have to kick your own butt once in a while. For your other weekly strength session -- yes, you need at least two -- you can use lighter weights.
5. Pick moves that tone several muscles at once
Do biceps curls while you do a lunge, for example. You'll work your upper and lower body with one exercise for much-greater results.
