t’s May, ladies. This can only mean one thing: Bikini season will be here before you know it. If your body could use a little toning before slipping into that two-piece, LR has got you covered! To help you get into shape for summer, our new Bikini Boot Camp program will do the trick. Not just bikinis, these classes will give you a body to feel strong, sexy and confident in a one-piece, tankini, and even just a tank top and jeans! The Bikini Boot Camp system incorporates both cardiovascular and strength training exercises that will help you burn calories, blast belly fat, and tone your body creating a leaner you! This sounds about right when spending your days lying under the sun. The routines are short, only 30 minutes, but give you an intense workout every time so you’ll see results. Remember, achieving a great body isn’t solely about fitness. Following a healthy diet along with regular exercise is the ideal combination.

5 No-Nonsense Summer Diet Tips
W
hile we eagerly anticipate those glorious sun-filled days spent lounging on the beach or by the pool, getting our bodies in shape isn’t nearly as easy. A common diet misconception is that if you simply eat as little as possible, the pounds will just melt away. Wrong! Those crash diets will not only leave you foggy and dizzy, but your body might go into starvation mode and hold onto your fat for dear life! Use these no-nonsense diet tips to help get your mind and body in shape for the warmer weather:
1
EAT BREAKFAST. If you want your metabolism to be running as fast as possible and burn more calories, you’ll want to supercharge it with a healthy breakfast in the morning. To keep your calories low, opt for an omelette packed with veggies and a piece of fruit.
2 3 4 5
DRINK WATER. H20 is the ultimate beverage for your body. Every time you drink 12 ounces, you’ll save about 150 calories.
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE WEATHER. It’s warm, get yourself outside and enjoy it! Think outside the box: go for a run, hike with friends, bike the trails.
EXERCISE DAILY. Getting at least an hour of exercise each day will help keep your metabolism rate raised while also making you feel better physically and emotionally. DON’T EAT LATE. Try not to eat within a few hours of bedtime. If you must, a banana or healthy cereal will suffice.
For Safe and Effective Sunscreen Use
1 2 3
Read labels. Get BoTH UV-A and UV-B protection! Always choose SPF 30 or higher.
Use sunscreen early and liberally. Apply at least 30 minutes before going outside.
4
Reapply every two hours. If you’re swimming or sweating, apply every 60-90 minutes.
5
Utilize the shade. UV rays are strongest between 11:00am and 3:00pm.
6
Children are more susceptible. Use specially formulated lotions for kids with gentler ingredients and higher SPFs.
7
Help prevent premature aging. Everyday use limits the chances of developing dry leathery skin, wrinkles, skin cancer, and other skins of premature aging.
8
Cover up when it’s cloudy. Even on gloomy days 80% of ultra-violet radiation is still present.
9
don’t let labels fool you. Budget brands are just as effective as the expensive brands. It’s about active ingredients, not labels.
10
don’t rely on sunscreen alone. Wear loose cotton clothing, a widebrimmed hat, sun-glasses and lip balm with SPF 30 or higher.
