Just pulled out High Step Challenge after not having done it for a pretty long time. Wow! I had forgotten how amazingly cut Jai is in that workout. Even my 15 yr old son was amazed that a girl could be that cut. :) I would love to be that lean, cut and defined. Anyone know how to get those results? I'm assuming alot of protein has to be consumed which I have a problem getting enough of at times. Ideas and or suggestions would be greatly appreciated
 
what exactly does one consider clean eating? because i don't eat any junk, sugar or fatty foods. doesnt seem to help me any
 
Genetics certainly play a role too. Tosca Reno is a good resource for clean eating guidelines. You can also take a look at sites like bodybuilding.com, people post their stories about how they get all leaned out and cut, and often include their diets. Pretty strict stuff though with little deviation/cheats.
 
It's a bit of a toss up for me. Yes, i must eat clean to stay lean (no rhyme intended! :p ) But truth is, if i cut out too much then i start to get too thin and end up losing muscle. I have to walk a fine line between too many carbs and too few in order to keep muscle wieght without gaining unwanted "other" weight. And yes, make sure you get adequate amounts of protein and drink plenty of water. You just have to mix things up until you figure out what works for your body.
 
Forgot to mention, look up topics like Nutrient timing and carb cycling, they seem to be popular subjects/techniques amongst those looking for a cut appearance. Also Tom Venuto is another good resource, with Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle, and his new Ebook that I can't remember the name, but he does say if you have a certain amount of fat to lose first, to start with BFFM, then move on to this next book to get to the next level. It's more than just eating clean, lots of people eat clean, and don't get that cut look.
 
Increase your healthy fats (especially organic coconut oil), cycle your calories and add some yoga to your routine. Eating clean does help. Avoid soy, its full of body fat increasing estrogens. Some people have success with a gluten free diet and/or eliminating dairy.
 
thanks for all the words of wisdom, alot of good food for thought. I have eaten gluten free for a few years because of an allergy to wheat I found out I had. I have been interested in starting yoga because I've heard of so many who have had success with it. Can anyone recommend some good yoga dvds because I no nothing about it and don't want to waste money on something thats not good. Thanks
