1. Be Consistent

The first three tips come from one of my favourite celebrity personal trainers, Jillian Michaels. She stresses to make sure that you are staying consistent with your workout routine.

Going to the gym on and off will not help you get any closer to where you want to be in terms of your fitness goals.  Consistency, commitment, and focus are what you need to get in shape.

Jillian suggests working out at least four times a week for at least 30 minutes per session.  The key is setting up a consistent routine that generates life-long habits.

2. Don’t Overeat Ever

This seems like such an obvious one, but I don’t think we follow this one as much as should. Jillian Michaels says something that most people know but doesn’t think about.

Weight loss will always be about how many calories you take in. 

Even if you are eating healthy foods, it still adds to the calories you are eating each day.  As Michaels puts it, “I don’t care how much healthy food you eat.  Don’t overeat!”

3. Read Food Labels

The third important fitness tip from Jillian Michaels is to make sure you are reading food labels.  Calories are an important factor in weight loss, but the quality is too.

She also stresses to get rid of the chemicals that are found in processed foods. 

Michaels sums it up by saying that, “If you don’t overeat and you’re removing chemicals as often as you possibly can, that’s all you need to worry about when it comes to your food.” Carefully opt for foods, especially if you are wary of putting on excess weight.

4. Start A Diary

According to celebrity fitness trainer Tracy Anderson, keeping a diary of your everyday life because we are all busy and everyday life can get in the way of our workout routine.

When we become stressed, Tracy says, it clouds our minds and makes us less productive.

In order to de-stress, Anderson suggests writing things down that get under our skin. She goes on to say that when your thoughts are in order, so is your health. 

5. Eat a balance of protein, fiber, and healthy fats five times a day, and stay hydrated

Celebrity fitness trainer Harley Pasternak stresses the importance of eating a balance of protein, fiber, and healthy fats five times a day. 

On top of this, he talks about the importance of staying hydrated throughout the day, because thirst can sometimes present itself as hunger.

Macronutrients, says Pasternack, will give your body all the fuel you need from thinking to running.  These three macronutrients also lead to satiety, so that you feel full.

6. Say Goodbye To Sugar

Peter Lee Thomas gets Halle Berry in tip-top shape, not by putting her through a vigorous weightlifting routine, but by encouraging her to use fighting and martial arts to train her body.

According to Thomas, all of the workouts that his celebrities use stem from fight training.

One of the best things about these types of workouts is that you don’t need a lot of equipment. 

He also mentioned that many of his clients who had complained they had spent hours on the treadmill with no results, saw a tremendous change once they started doing martial arts.

8. Cut Out All Other Drinks Except Tea And Water

Moderation is always key in dieting and Erin believes the importance of having the occasional pizza, or ice cream, or whatever your favorite “cheat food” may be.
