I travel a lot, and so do many of my patients. And one question I frequently hear is: “How can I get a good workout when I’m on the road?” It’s a good question, because many people don’t like using a hotel’s public gym facility—and obviously, lugging dumbbells in your suitcase isn’t a good option! While you can keep your core and lower body toned with squats, lunges, and planks, keeping your upper body in shape is trickier when you don’t have weights. Luckily, I have the solution: Pack some exercise bands. These light-weight bands take up almost no room in your suitcase, and you can use them anywhere to get a quick resistance workout. The least expensive bands are simply long, flat strips of latex (you can also get latex-free versions), often called therapy bands. I like these because it’s easy to adjust the length of the band by wrapping it around your hands. You can also get tube bands with handles, or “loop” bands that look like giant rubber bands. Bands come in different levels of resistance—light, medium, or strong—and they’re cheap and durable. In addition, exercise bands are simple to use. Here are some of my favorite ways to incorporate them into an upper-body exercise routine: BICEPS CURLS. Stand with your feet on the bands and the ends of the bands in your hands. Curl your forearms up, just as you would with weights, keeping your elbows by your sides. Hold at the top, then slowly lower your forearms to the starting position. Repeat. Here's a video on biceps curls with an exercise band. FRENCH PRESS. Sit on a chair with the center of the band under your butt and the ends in your hands. Start with your arms overhead, bent at the elbows so your hands are behind your head. With your palms facing toward the ceiling, press your arms straight up, then bend your elbows so your hands are behind your head again. Repeat. Here's a video on doing a French press with an exercise band (just remember my instructions have you sitting on the band as you perform the press). ROWS. Place the band under one foot, with the other foot slightly behind it. Bend at your waist at a 45-degree angle. Start with your arms hanging down and slightly forward and your palms facing in; then raise your elbows to the sides of your chest, squeezing your back muscles and making a “rowing” motion. Lower your arms to the starting position and repeat. Here's a video on doing bent rows with an exercise band. LAT PULLDOWN. Stand with the band held in front of you. Raise both arms over your head, with your hands wider than shoulder-width apart. Keeping your right arm in place, bend your left elbow and pull your left arm down and in toward your side, repeating the movement until your arm is fatigued and then switching to the opposite side. Here's a video on the lat pulldown with an exercise band. OVERHEAD PRESS. With the band under your feet and the ends of the band in your hands, raise your arms as if you’re lifting a barbell. Lower your hands, and repeat the movement. Here's a video on doing an overhead press with an exercise band. BOW AND ARROW. Holding the band out to your sides, mimic drawing back a bow. Repeat several times, and then switch sides. Here's a video on the bow and arrow exercise with an exercise band. The next time you’re traveling, toss a band or two in your suitcase and try these exercises. They’re safe no matter what your fitness level is, and they’re a hassle-free way to keep your upper body toned. What’s more, they’re great tension relievers after a long day of plane rides, TSA lines, and mad dashes through airports! Keep thinking Big and living BOLD!

There’s no question about it: To be your best, you need to exercise. But while that’s easy to say, it’s not always easy to do. If you’ve been sedentary for years, or you’re battling serious health problems, simply getting up and moving can be a challenge. But you know what?   Once you do get up and start moving, it’ll get easier every week. And before you know it, I bet you’ll be amazed at what you can accomplish. The trick, if you haven’t exercised for a long time, is to ease into it gradually. In addition, choose exercises that promote strength, balance, flexibility, and cardiovascular health. Here are five of the best ones.   Walking This is the easiest form of exercise, and it’s a great first step (no pun intended!) if you want to transform yourself from a couch potato to an active exerciser. When you start walking, determine how much distance you can comfortably cover in your walk. Then, every few days, challenge yourself to walk a little bit farther. As you get stronger, try routes that have an uphill and downhill grade. Vary your walks so you stay interested, and consider joining a walking group to give you motivation. Water Exercise Exercising in a pool is a wonderful way to get weak muscles back in shape, because you’re working against the resistance of water. It has other powerful benefits too, especially if you’re a senior. For instance, one study involving older women found that exercising in water improved not just their strength but also their cardiorespiratory fitness, body composition, blood lipids, agility, and flexibility. What’s more, you don’t need to know how to swim in order to get in shape. You can tone and strengthen your muscles by doing standing leg lifts, breast strokes, and back strokes. Start with small movements, and work up to bigger ones. Tai Chi Remember when you were a kid, and you could touch your toes and do the splits? Then, over time, you got less and less flexible—and now you may even struggle to put on your shoes and socks. You’re especially likely to have problems with flexibility if you have diabetes. One of the best ways to increase your range of motion is by practicing Tai Chi. The gentle, fluid movements of Tai Chi will boost your flexibility gradually without straining your joints, and they’re also excellent for your balance. Resistance Training I know that weightlifting may seem like the last thing you should try if you’re really out of shape! However, the results may surprise you! If you need inspiration, check out 91-year-old “Gus” in this video. In my opinion, resistance training is the #1 way to get yourself back in good condition. The key here is to start very gradually—with one- or two-pound weights, if necessary—and have an expert help you so you avoid injuries. (Be sure to get your doctor’s okay, too.) A professional can also design a program that works for you if you’ve had breast cancer surgery, you have arthritis, or you need other modifications. Core Exercises Your core muscles are among the first to go when you don’t exercise. Tone them even a little, and you’ll see a big difference in your posture, your balance, and your health. To start whipping them into shape, try these exercises every day: Do a “tummy tuck” by pulling in your abdominal muscles, holding them in for three breaths, and then releasing them, repeating the exercise 12 times. Lying on your back, move your legs in a “bicycling” motion. You can do this on a bed if lying on the floor is too difficult. Lying on your back with your knees bent, lift and lower your pelvis several times, holding for a few seconds at the top of the exercise. Again, you can do this on a bed if lying on the floor is too hard. Also, try to create a habit of tightening your abdominal muscles each time you think about it throughout the day. This simple habit can do wonders for your abs over time. — I’m not going to kid you: At first, getting your body back in motion will take grit. You’ll experience some aches and pains, and you may occasionally wish you were back on that sofa. But trust me—I’ve helped thousands of people make this journey back to fitness, and I know you’re up for the challenge. So right now, commit to reversing that downward spiral by moving in ways that make your body a little healthier every single day. You’ll never know how strong you can be until you try!

What if I told you I had a magic pill that would boost your metabolism, making you burn fat faster? You’d take it in a heartbeat, wouldn’t you? Well, guess what: I do have that magic pill. And here’s more good news: It’s free! The magic pill I’m talking about is—you guessed it—exercise. Doctors often downplay the fat-burning power of exercise, because most of them believe in the old calories-in, calories-out rule. And it’s true that the immediate effects of exercise aren’t going to tip the scale very much. For instance, it takes more than an hour of strenuous exercise to burn off a 300-calorie doughnut. However, that’s just what exercise does in the short run. Here’s what it does in the long run: • Exercise keeps your metabolism high even after you finish. When you do high-intensity exercise, your muscles experience wear-and-tear (in a good way). After you’re done, your body needs to repair and replenish those muscles—and that takes work. So long after you exercise, your metabolism stays ramped up. • Exercise builds muscle. Muscle burns more calories than fat—so the more lean muscle mass you create through exercise, the more fat you’ll burn all day long. The key here is to do the most effective types of exercise. I’m a huge fan of all kinds of exercise—whether it’s walking the dog, dancing a samba, or playing Twister with your kids—but from a metabolic point of view, some forms of exercise are more powerful than others. Here are two of the best when it comes to melting off that fat: • Weightlifting. When you lift the heaviest weights you can lift with good form, and do as many repetitions as you can, you’ll get a fantastic after-workout “burn” and build beautiful lean muscle. (As a bonus, lifting weights sculpts your body, so you automatically look slimmer. I call it “rearranging the furniture.”) • High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT). In HIIT, you exercise very strenuously in short bursts with periods of less intense exercise in between—for instance, alternating sprinting with walking. Your body needs to work hard during the strenuous stages and the recovery phases, and this really revs up your metabolism. (If you’re very athletic, consider trying Tabata, a more strenuous form of HIIT.) In addition to incorporating these two types of exercise into your routine, here are three more tips for getting the biggest metabolic boost from your workouts: • Exercise inefficiently. No, that’s not a typo! People look at me funny when I tell them to make their exercise routine more inefficient, but there’s a good reason for this. When you do the same exercises every week, your routine gets easier, so you burn less fat. Change things up, and your body has to work harder. So surprise your body by switching from hand weights to kettlebells, or from sprinting to swimming. • Go for quality, not quantity. Stop killing yourself with long exercise routines. Twenty minutes of intensive weightlifting or HIIT training will give you more metabolic payoff than an hour of jogging. • Exercise regularly. Schedule a minimum of four 20-minute workouts a week. (Take a one-day break between weightlifting sessions, to give your muscles time to recover.) If you find that you don’t have time for that much exercise, make the time—even if it means getting rid of other commitments in your life. Make your health and weight loss a top priority. Finally, supplement your exercise routines with fun activities that you love, whether it’s bowling, swimming, hiking, yoga, or ballet. All forms of movement will boost your metabolism more than sitting on the sofa—so on the days when you don’t work out, put your body in motion in ways that make you and your metabolism happy!

Do you hate floor exercises? Then check out these seven powerful ways to get flat abs WITHOUT lying down! A while ago, I shared some killer exercises for flat abs. But several readers wrote to me and said, “I hate getting down on the floor. Do you have any tips for exercising my abs while I’m standing up?” Well, your wish is my command! Here are seven quick and powerful exercises for flat abs that slim your waistline while you stay on your feet. In addition to working your abs, these are the best exercises for flat abs that will also improve your balance, enhance your posture, and burn off more fat than floor exercises. What are the best exercises for flat abs? Standing Side Crunch for flat abs Stand with your feet about hip-width apart and the toes of your left foot pointing out to the side. Hold your left arm out to your side, with your forearm pointing up in an “L.” Bring your left knee to your left elbow in a side crunch, keeping your arms and shoulders as still as possible. (This forces your oblique muscles to work hard.) Repeat this move 20 times, and then switch to the other side Do the "side-to-side" to build flat abs. Stand with your feet about hip-width apart. Hold a five-pound weight (or a soup can or book, if you don’t have a weight) vertically in front of your chest with both hands. Slowly move the weight to the left, back to the center, and to the right. Repeat for one minute. Keep your abs pulled in the entire time you’re doing this exercise, and keep your hips as still as possible. The reverse chop will help you gain flat abs. You’ll need a weight or medicine ball for this exercise. Stand with your feet slightly more than hip-width apart.  Squat slightly and lower the weight or medicine ball to the outside of your right knee with both hands, keeping your arms straight. With your arms still straight, raise the weight and rotate it across your body until the weight is above your left shoulder.  Do 10 to 15 repetitions on each side. Sculpt flat abs with the crossover crunch. Starting with your feet a little wider than hip-width apart, bring your right elbow to your left knee, and then switch sides. Repeat for one minute. Single-leg sprints for flat abs Stand in a lunge position with your left knee bent, your right leg stretched out straight behind you, and your arms extended over your head.  Lift your right knee toward your chest, pulling your arms down to your chest at the same time. Do 15 to 20 repetitions on each side. Do standing pike crunches if you want to build flat abs. Start with both arms straight overhead. Slowly bring them down until they’re straight in front of you, simultaneously raising your right leg straight in front of you, and touch your leg with your hands. Repeat 20 times on each side. Alphabet Abs help you obtain flat abs. This is a fun one! Holding a light medicine ball (or any ball you can comfortably hold) in front of you at chest level, move the ball as though you’re writing the cursive alphabet from A to Z. Keep your belly pulled in and your hips and butt as still as possible as you do this. Want still more ideas for working your abs without getting down on the floor? Then check out this fun and free YouTube video from world-famous fitness guru (and my good buddy) Kathy Smith. It only takes about ten minutes, and trust me—you’re gonna feel it the next day. A flat ab diet that will change your life. And, of course, keep tackling that belly fat from the inside out, with foods like bone broth. Bone broth heals your gut, quelling inflammation and making you a natural fat burner so extra pounds—especially around your waistline—melt away quickly. Combine a healthy bone broth habit with easy standing exercises like these, and you’ll be cinching in that belt before you know it! Keep Thinking Big & Living Bold!

Do you dread wearing a swimsuit or a sleeveless dress because it reveals your upper-arm flab? If so, you have lots of company. Even people who are very fit and athletic often develop a jiggle in that pesky tricep area along the back of the arm. Luckily, there are ways to tighten up this trouble spot. So don’t just cover up… take action! Here are three of my favorite arm workouts for tackling tricep flab. Tricep Dips Sit at the edge of a sturdy work bench or coffee table, with your arms beside you, your fingers facing forward, your knees bent, and your feet on the floor. Grasp the edge of the bench or table with your hands. Now lower your butt close to the floor, supporting yourself on your hands. (Be careful not to lock your elbows at any point.) Your back should just graze the bench or table as you lower yourself. Once you’re as low as you can comfortably go, return to your starting position. Do 12 to 15 repetitions. Tricep Kickbacks Stand to the left side of a sturdy bench or coffee table. Place your right knee and hand on the bench or table and hold a five- to eight-pound dumbbell in your left hand, with your palm facing toward your body. Starting with your left upper arm parallel to the floor and your elbow bent at a 90-degree angle, slowly move your forearm back until your arm is straight and parallel to the floor. Do 12 reps, then repeat on the opposite side. Overhead Tricep Extension You can do this exercise seated or standing. Hold five- to eight-pound dumbbells in your hands, with your arms extended straight above your head and your palms facing in. Keeping your elbows close to your head and your abs pulled in, bend your elbows and lower the weights behind your head. Return to your starting position. Do 12 to 15 reps. Tricep Pushups Start in a traditional pushup position—but instead of placing your hands far apart, place them a little less than shoulder-width apart. Do pushups, keeping your elbows close to your body.  If doing pushups from your toes is too difficult, you can modify this exercise by keeping your knees on the floor. Do 10 to 12 reps. Triangle Pushups This harder version of the pushup is a challenge, but science says it’s the most effective way to tone your triceps. Again, get in a standard pushup position. This time, however, place your thumbs and forefingers together to form a triangle. If doing pushups from your toes is too difficult, keep your knees on the floor. Do 10 to 12 reps. Before you quit… When you work one muscle group, it’s always smart to work the opposing muscle group as well. So once you’re done with your triceps, take a few minutes to do some bicep curls. That way, you’ll keep things in balance… and you’ll be building gorgeous arms, front and back! Keep Thinking Big & Living Bold!

How many sit-ups do you think you’ve done in your life? Hundreds, or maybe even thousands? Personally, I think I did at least two million back in my teen years. And here’s what I learned: While those crunches helped a little, they didn’t help a lot in my pursuit to get toned abs. Why? While crunches exercise some core muscles, they’re worthless for others. Luckily, there are other effective ways to slim and strengthen your abs. Here are five of my favorite ways to get great abs and a flatter stomach. 1. Stomach vacuuming (for a flatter belly!) It’s the latest rage… and yes, it actually works! Here’s how to do it. Pick a time when you haven’t eaten recently. Choose one of these positions: ●       On your back, with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor. ●       On your hands and knees. ●       Sitting up straight in a chair with no arm rests. Take a few deep breaths. Then exhale as much air as you can, and pull your belly button in toward your spine. Hold this position for 15 seconds, squeezing your belly button in as far as you can and taking small breaths if needed. Try to work your way up to 60 seconds. The great thing about this stomach exercise is that in addition to giving your abs a powerful workout while you’re doing it, it trains you to keep your tummy tucked in during the day and INSTANTLY flattens your belly! 2. Bicycles (builds toned abs!) This exercise is easy to do, but it really works. Do enough repetitions, and I guarantee that you’ll feel your abs the next day!  This is a very effective technique to get toned abs fast. 1.      Lie face-up on a carpeted floor or mat and put your hands behind your head, gently supporting your head with your fingers. Lift your legs at about a 45-degree angle. 2.      Make a bicycling motion with your legs, straightening one leg as you bend the other. As you bend each knee, rotate your body to bring the opposite elbow close to it. Do three sets of 16 bicycles on each side. 3. Planks (sculpts your waistline!) Yeah, I know. These are a little tough. But as you’re tightening your abs, you’ll also be sculpting your thighs and butt—so you’ll get a lot of reward for a little pain. Here’s how to do a proper plank pose: 1.      Lie face-down on a carpeted floor or mat. Rest your upper body on your forearms, keeping your palms flat on the floor. 2.      Push off the floor, supporting your body on your toes and forearms. Your body should form a straight line from the top of your head to your heels. Don’t let your butt stick up or sag. 3.      Hold this position for 20 to 60 seconds. Repeat three to five times. 4. Side planks (trims those love handles!) This variant of the plank doesn’t just flatten your abs; it strengthens your back as well, giving you beautiful posture and helping to protect you from back injuries. To do a side plank, lie on your right side, supporting your upper body on your right forearm, with your legs straight and your left hand on your left hip. Tighten your abs and lift your hips, supporting your body weight on your right forearm and the side of your right foot. (Don’t let your hips sag.) Hold this position for 10 to 30 seconds. Switch sides and repeat. 5. Reverse Crunches (tummy tightening for your lower abs!) This belly flattening exercise really digs into those lower ab muscles. One caution, however: Skip this exercise if you have any back problems. To do a reverse crunch, lie on a carpeted floor or mat with your arms at your sides. Lift your legs straight up. Now lift your hips off the floor, raising your legs straight up toward the ceiling. Lower your hips and repeat. Are you ready to get a flatter belly & get toned abs? Keep at it! To get the best results from these exercises, do them regularly. The fastest way to get toned abs is consistency! Get in the habit of doing the stomach vacuuming exercise first thing every morning before breakfast, and do the bicycles, planks, side planks, and reverse crunches at least every other day. Here’s just one recommended stomach flattening workout routine you can implement to get quick results: Daily – Exercise 1 > 5 sets x 60 seconds each rep Mon, Wed, Friday – Exercises 2-5 > 3 sets of 12 reps each Along with a healthy eating plan, I bet that within a couple of weeks, your waistline will get slimmer and more sculpted. I also predict that you’ll see changes in your butt and thighs, because these exercises work your entire core.  Just imagine how good you’ll look in a few months from now and make all your friends envious during the holiday season! And here’s something else I predict: You’re not going to miss those crunches one bit!

if you’re experiencing a major case of butt sag, it’s time to fight back with these “buns of steel’ exercises. They look simple, but you’ll definitely feel your glutes the next day. 

Want to lose that belly fat and get back into your skinny jeans? New research from Harvard says the secret is resistance training. Here’s more about the latest findings—along with tips for getting the most out of a resistance training workout. I lift weights four times a week. The rest of the time I may do yoga, ballet barre, walk, hike or sprint. But to get the results I'm shooting for, my weight training days are non-negotiable. Here's why: Is your waistline expanding a little bit (or a lot) each year? And is it getting harder and harder to fight that belly fat even if you diet and exercise every day? If so, you’re not alone. In my medical practice, “waistline creep” is one of the most common complaints I hear.  And it’s a serious problem, because belly fat isn’t just unsightly; it also increases your risk of diabetes, heart disease and even breast cancer. But new research points to a simple solution—and it doesn’t involve cutting calories or doing hundreds of sit-ups. Instead, it involves resistance training. What the research shows In a large-scale study, researchers at Harvard followed more than 10,000 healthy men, aged 40 or older, for 12 years. The men provided information on the types of exercise they did and the amount of time they spent exercising. It turns out that men who did 20 minutes of weight training every day had a smaller increase in belly fat than men who spent the same amount of time doing moderate to vigorous aerobic activities. (And not surprisingly, the men who were sedentary had the biggest increases in belly fat.) Combining weight training and aerobic exercise led to the best results. Why weightlifting works Why does resistance training target your “muffin top” so effectively? Here are the two primary reasons: Muscle burns far more calories than fat. So when you add lean muscle to your body with resistance training, you burn more energy all day long—not just when you’re exercising. And that means burning off belly fat, which is easy for the body to mobilize when it needs fuel. Resistance training builds strong core muscles in your abdomen and back, and a toned core takes inches off your waistline. Moreover, weight lifting doesn’t just strengthen your core; it makes you stronger all over. When you get stronger, you have more energy, and that means you do more and you sit less. So again, you’re burning more calories—and that whittles off more abdominal fat. The right way to do resistance training Obviously, it’s smart to add resistance training to your regimen if you want to win the battle of the bulge. While the men in the Harvard study exercised every day, I recommend doing just three or four sessions a week. That way, your body can rest and recover in between. Here’s how to get the maximum payoff from your weightlifting: Pick a heavy enough weight. Here’s a good rule of thumb: If you can easily lift the weight for more than five repetitions, it’s too light. Do “low reps.” That means repeating each exercise five times or less. Do multiple sets. Start with two sets if you’re a beginner, and gradually work up to twelve. And remember that resistance training doesn’t just mean lifting weights; it also means using your own body weight. Try these three powerful core exercises, which will rev up your metabolism and really burn off belly fat: Planks. To do a plank, hold your body in a “pushup” position, with only your toes and your hands on the floor. Squats.  Start with the “goblet” squat, which is easy to do correctly. Hold a dumbbell or kettlebell in front of your chest like a goblet. Stand with your feet slightly wider than hip-width, and point your toes slightly outward. Continuing to hold the weight in front of your chest, sit down as if you’re trying to plant your fanny on the ground. Go as low as you can while keeping good form (heels on the ground, knees in line with toes, flat back). Then stand up, keeping your back vertical. “Mountain climbers.” Start in a plank position. Pull one knee at a time to your chest and then return to the plank position. Repeat with the other leg. These exercises can be a little tough when you’re just starting out. The trick, however, is to do them for only 15 seconds in each repetition. That doesn’t sound like a lot, but believe me: You’ll feel it the next day, especially in your core. Boosting your belly-fat-fighting efforts If you take up resistance training to battle your belly fat, get more bang for your buck by combining it with a low-carb diet. Sugar and grains are the biggest dietary culprits when it comes to visceral fat, because they cause metabolic syndrome—and metabolic syndrome leads to a big belly. Also, add in a few minutes of meditation each day. Research shows that mindful meditation can actually reduce belly fat. And get enough sleep, because sleeping less than five hours a night can add pounds to your waistline. Put all of these elements together, and you have the perfect recipe for melting off that belly bulge. I’m betting that within weeks, you’ll see a difference… and within a few months, you’ll be zipping up jeans you never thought you’d fit into again. Keep thinking big and living bold! -Dr. Kellyann
