• Alternate three sets of 15 side lunges (alternate sides) with three sets of 20 dumbbell bicep curls to shoulder press (with palms up curl dumbbells into your chest keeping your elbows close to your sides, press dumbbells up, bring your arms back down, reverse curl and repeat).

Sandra uses some easy diet plans that anyone can do. “Last night I had brown rice and black beans and some steamed vegetables so today I’m going to have all kinds of good stuff! I love sweets, like Viennese pastry, raw cookie dough, or a nice bowl of Lucky Charms with milk that I eat in bed watching SNL. That’s heaven right there,” says Sandra, who balances her healthy diet with one “cheat day” each week- from Friday night to Saturday night.
I really changed my eating habits, from pizza and Diet Coke to something like maybe a piece of chicken and some vegetables on the side.”
