Want a body that radiates health? In Objectif un corps canon, newly published by Leduc.s éditions, Lucile Woodward—celebrated fitness instructor, sports coach, mother of two, and creator of France's most visited fitness blog—guides you to rebalance your diet, boost cardio, build muscle, and master stretching, all in just 6 weeks.
"Many times (…) people tell me that they don't understand, because they eat a fairly balanced diet and yet they can't lose cellulite and have no energy: in fact, their body has put itself in \"resistance\" mode, one could also say in \"vegetative\" mode. And that's what needs to change: cause a kind of metabolic shock to restart the machine, because the body can no longer or does not want to burn calories anymore," she explains in her preface.
And she adds: "To take an image, see your body as a factory to burn, which we will revive. You will be able to burn more calories, thanks to a food rebalancing and above all, thanks to the exercises which will allow you to have more muscle mass, a better distribution of the masses, with a progressively refined and more harmonious silhouette." So how do we restart the machine?
The "Sacred" Program
And health is Sacred (not only because it's cool but because it also depends on our practice of Sport, our Diet, Cardio, Renfo and Emotions).
On the menu? Balanced weekly meals like wholemeal bread for breakfast, chickpea salads and no-added-sugar applesauce for lunch, sheep's cheese snacks, or vegetarian curry with quinoa for dinner—simple and nourishing.
On the exercise front: 30 minutes three times a week (totally manageable), plus 30 minutes of stretching and 1 hour of cardio (cycling, running, etc.).
This expert-supervised program builds a healthier body and boosts well-being. It's so practical and motivating, you'll want to get started right away!
