Stand upright, feet together and take a controlled step forward with your right leg, lowering your hips towards the floor by bending both knees to 90-degree angles.
The back knee should point toward but not touch the ground, your front knee should be directly over the ankle and not over the forward foot or toe.
Straighten your legs bringing the back-left foot forward. That is one rep.
Now step forward with your left leg and complete the same steps on the other side.

Each step counting as one rep. Complete for number of recommended reps.

FORGET ABOUT COMPLICATED DIETS, START LOSING WEIGHT TODAY!

Hey! Jenn here, the creator of A Dash of Macros!

I have been exactly where you are, struggling to lose the unwanted weight. Struggling to find anything that actually works to lose the weight and keep it off. Trying to fight the aging process, while watching my metabolism slow down, my love handles and lower midsection expand.

I have tried all those fad diets and tested all of the different nutrition approaches. From Low Carb to Low Fat, Keto to Whole 30, Intermittent Fasting to Intuitive Eating, and everything in between.

If you have ever tried any of these restrictive diets before, you understand how hard they can be to follow, how restrictive they can be, and how much time and energy they take. Leaving you feeling hungry, deprived, irritable, and lacking energy. Making them impossible to stick with.

If you somehow stuck to those diets and lost the weight, you eventually put that weight back on. Why? Because they are fad diets, they are not sustainable lifestyles. They are a quick fix, but don’t withstand our busy lives.
