Brooke Burke Shares Her Weight Loss Routine
Television hostess and model Brooke Burke is still looking good even after becoming a mother. A lot of people know that this celebrity like many others had credited her amazing weight loss to Dancing with the Stars, a physically demanding but fun fitness exercise program. And now that she hosts the popular show, the star has graduated from just dancing as a fitness exercise program.
To keep her in such great shape, Brooke says she combines a healthy weight loss diet plan with a disciplined fitness exercise program.
A Look at Brooke’s Healthy Weight Loss Diet Plan
When it comes to weight loss diet plans, Brooke’s best trick is to EAT! Her healthy weight loss diet plan involves eating five small healthy meals a day and never, ever follows fad weight loss diets. Brooke follows a Mediterranean weight loss diet plan which includes eating lots of lean meats, fish, salad, veggies and olive oil. Brooke also makes sure she never skips breakfast. When she’s short on time though, she just has a protein shake.
Her morning weight loss diet plan usually consists of eating oatmeal with fruit and for mid morning, she has a snack and for her lunch diet plan, she has a big salad with some protein. As for her dinner diet plan, she likes to include having fish and veggies with a glass of wine. Brooke says “the main point of this weight loss diet plan is not to starve your body.”
Brooke’s Fitness Exercise Program
Of course a sexy body needs not only a healthy weight loss diet plan but a good fitness exercise program as well. For Brooke, this involves doing Pilates exercise. She’s done this for about 10 years although now she says she’s more into doing Pilates Plus, a mix fitness exercise program of pilates exercise and cardio exercise. She says she prefers this fitness exercise program among any other because it is an effective exercise and most of all it’s a quick fitness exercise program – 55 minutes – definitely the best weight loss program for a mom on the go!
Brooke has some favorite fitness exercise moves that she uses to keep her body so toned, particularly her lower body and butt. Below is one of the fitness exercise program routines that Brooke uses when she exercises. Created by her fitness trainer, Greg Joujon-Roche, the fitness exercise program routine targets the butt.
The butt exercises here target the glutes from a variety of positions, ensuring every part of this large muscle group gets sculpted,” says fitness trainer, Greg.
These fitness exercises can be done as a stand- alone routine or before half an hour of a cardio exercise routine. Either way, it is sure to help tone the buttocks area. Simply do 3 sets of each move for 15 reps, although it doesn’t have to be done in the same order every fitness exercise.
