TGIF! It's Friday which means its time for Q&A Friday! Ask me your #diet, #exercise, #nutrition, #stress, #lifestyle questions! Go!!

Q: I have skinny calfs, what's a good calf workout? A: Do standing & seated calf raises with a moderate weight. Hi reps (20-25), 3 sets each.

Q: What is the best diet out there? A: The best diet is the one that you will like the food choices available and thus will follow longer.

Q: I work 12 hour days, how can I find time to workout? A: Try a 1/2 hr workout before or after work or split it and do it before & after.

Q: Is it possible to focus on one area during weightloss? A: No, fat loss can't be spot reduced but your body will reshape itself so as you lose weight, natural curves will show more and with better definition. Arms, abs, legs, etc.

Q: What's the best footwear to use to workout? A: If you are doing low impact work, then anything comfortable that provides support is good. However, if you are doing any high impact work then you need to wear supportive, thick soled shock absorbent and light footwear.

Q: I hate my love handles, what's a good workout? A: Love handles are where your body stores fat so you have to attack it with diet. You can tone the obliques underneath with twisting moves and ab/core work but the diet (and cardio) is what will get rid of them.

Q: How do you figure out BMI? A: Body Mass Index is calculated by height and weight but is not a good indicator of muscle or fitness IMO.

Q: Does yoga help alleviate stress? A: Yes! Concentrate on your breathing during yoga to get the max stress busting effect of it.

Q: If almonds are good for u, why can't I have more thn a handful? A: Almonds are good fat but they are fat so u want to eat in moderation.
