Fitness & Workouts

Kelsey Rose is showing off her ab-fab body – in her two-piece workout gear. In a new social media post, the fitness trainer flaunts her washboard abs in an Alo exercise set as she unveils her under-30-minute fat-blasting workout. “The only fat-burning cardio workout you need to get sculpted & snatched,” she writes across the video, recommending doing it two to four times weekly for fat loss. Do you want to lose weight just by walking? Here is what you need to know.

She Upped Her Step Count

“When I upped my daily steps from 4k to 10k, let me tell you—it completely transformed not just my body but my entire mindset. Walking is such a simple but effective way to stay active, and it’s seriously the secret sauce to slimming down and feeling your best. Plus, it works wonders for your mental,” she says.

The Routine Combines Jogging and Incline Walking

“This routine also incorporates jogging + incline, which forces your heart rate up and down, revving up the metabolism in the best way possible!” she continues. Walking on an incline burns more calories than walking fast or even running on a flat surface, which is why many experts suggest upping your incline. A 2013 study even found that walking on a 2 to 7 percent incline increased heart rate by almost 10 percent when compared with running on a flat surface.

Here Is the 25 Minute Routine

Here’s the breakdown:

  1. Warm-up: 5 min brisk walk (3.0-3.5 mph, 2% incline)
  2. Jog: 3 min (5.5 mph, 2% incline)
  3. Power walk: 3 min (3 mph, 8% incline)
  4. Jog: 2 min (6.0 mph, 2% incline)
  5. Power walk: 2 min (4.0 mph, 9% incline)
  6. Sprint: 1 min (7.0 mph, 2% incline)
  7. Power walk: 5 min (3.5 mph, 10% incline)
  8. Jog: 2 min (5.5 mph, 2% incline)
  9. Cool down: 2 min easy walk.

She Also Shared a 15-Minute Workout

In another post, she unveils a 15-minute walking workout. “This is your sign to STOP skipping your post-workout cardio and squeeze in a quick 15-minute treadmill workout for best results! It’s easy to feel like cardio needs to be a long, intense session to matter, but even a short burst after strength training can make a big impact,” she says.

Just 15 Minutes Offers So many Benefits

“By adding just 15 minutes on the treadmill, you can boost fat burn, increase endurance, and rev up your metabolism—all without draining yourself. Cardio is also a great way to wind down, reset, and give your body some extra love post-workout,” she says.

Here Is the 15 Minute Workout

“My Cheat Code Treadmill Series,” she says.

  1. 5 min steady walk at incline 8, speed 3.0—get the blood flowing!
  2. 5 min intervals: alternate 30-sec fast run (speed 6.0-8.0) + 30-sec walk (speed 3.0) to elevate your heart rate and maximize calorie burn
  3. 5 min cool down with incline 5, speed 3.0—ease into a steady pace and let your body relax.

Do It After Your Regular Workout

She recommends doing it after your regular workout. “Just 15 minutes, and you’re done! Try it out as a finisher for your next workout and see how it feels to add this extra boost. Let’s make cardio simple and effective!” she says.

Walking Offers Lots of Health Benefits

Walking at a brisk speed offers lots of benefits. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that getting your steps in about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia, and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

Do you want a Pilates body without having to pay hundreds of dollars a month at a studio? Sadielee Thomas is famous for sharing her totally doable at-home workouts on social media.

Here is everything you need to know about how to do the workout.

Pilates-Style Workout

For her “Full Body Strength,” she recommends 45 seconds on 15 seconds off for 5 rounds with 30 seconds of rest between rounds. Here is the workout, which she demonstrates in the clips.

  1. Kneeling quad stretch
  2. Static single-leg lunge with chest opener
  3. Side-lying leg swings

However, incorporating movements like these, along with a diet tailored to my goals, was pivotal in achieving core transformation post-pregnancy,” she wrote, recommending 12 to 15 reps and 2 to 3 rounds “depending on fitness level.”

Here Is What She Eats in a Day

Sadielee recently gave her followers a glimpse at her daily diet, which doesn’t involve any meal prep and enables her to hit her macros. “I need quick, efficient, and easy to grab, but I also want it to taste yummy. My goal with nutrition right now is to just hit about 1g of protein per lb of body weight!” she says. She starts with yogurt and a Fairlife protein chocolate milk. For lunch, she eats “adult Lunchables,” which she makes with sliced turkey, cheese, edamame, grapes, nuts, and healthy crackers. For dinner, she has Chicken Kofta with Tzatziki and lemon rice. She finishes her day off with dessert, a cashew butter dark chocolate bar, and a “sleepy girl mocktail” made with cherry juice and Poppi soda.

Muscle “Toning and Tightening” Involves “Muscle Growth and Fat Loss”

Sadielee_Thomas3sadieleethomas/Instagram

Before she gets into the workout, she shares “some crucial points I’d like to emphasize,” namely that the idea of “toning or tightening” muscles is a misconception. “Rather, the process involves muscle growth and fat loss, which collectively sculpt the desired toned appearance. Despite the appeal of catchy phrases, it’s important to understand what it’ll actually take to reach your fitness goals,” she explains.

Calorie Deficit

Screenshot 2024-03-07 at 11.04.05 AMkelliirosee/Instagram

“A calorie is simply the measurement of how much energy a food provides. Similar to a car, your body requires fuel to keep it moving. How much fuel it needs depends on a number of factors, including height, weight, age, biological sex, muscle mass, lifestyle, and so much more. If your goal is to lose weight, you will need to be in a calorie deficit. If your goal is to gain weight, you will need to be in a calorie surplus,” she wrote in a post.

"To lose weight, you must be in a caloric deficit. A deficit is when the amount of calories that you consume is lower than the amount of calories you burn (usually around 300-700 calories). In a caloric deficit, our body mass decreases. The two primary ways of achieving a deficit are reducing how much you eat or increasing how much you exercise, usually by adding cardio. You can still gain muscle while in a deficit.”

Her 20-Minute Salmon Recipe

Kelli swears by “20-minute healthy dinners,” including this salmon recipe she recently shared.

Ingredients

  • 1/3 c. honey
  • 1/4 c. low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp. lime juice
  • 1 tsp. red pepper flakes
  • 3 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 4 6-oz. salmon fillets, patted dry with a paper towel
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 lemon, sliced into rounds

Whisk together

  • 1/3 c. honey
  • 1/4 c. low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp. lime juice

Discipline

Kelly is all about discipline. “My Goal: outdo me,” she wrote in a post. “It's easy to dream, but the real magic happens when you turn those dreams into goals. Wanting something is just the beginning; it's the discipline, dedication, and hard work that transform desires into reality. No one else can walk your path for you, so it's up to you to take the first step and keep moving forward. Embrace the power of discipline and watch everything unfold.”

Kelli recently shared “a few essential tips to help you conquer your goals.” The first? “Craft a Solid Plan,” she said. “Begin with a well-thought-out plan tailored to your goals. A structured approach is the foundation of success.”

Second, prioritize nutrition. “Recognize that nutrition plays a massive role in achieving any fitness objective. Fuel your body with proper nutrition to support your workouts and recovery.”

The third is tailored training. “Tailor your training regimen to align with your specific goals. Whether it's strength, endurance, or flexibility, your workouts should align with your objectives.”

Next up, be consistent. “Consistency is the secret sauce. Stick to your plan and maintain your healthy habits, even when motivation wanes,” she says.

Finally, embrace the journey. “Understand that achieving your fitness goals requires effort and determination. It won't always be easy, but the journey is where growth happens. Embrace the challenges and keep pushing forward.”

Do you want to lose weight and transform your body? Orisha Rè Lampkin, sensual fitness instructor and founder of Fearless Re'volution, helps ambitious, high-achieving women reconnect with their bodies, ignite their sensual energy, get fit, and lead their lives fearlessly and unapologetically. She went from a size 12 to a size 2, 167 lbs to 130, and wants to help others do the same. She reveals to Body Network that making three simple tweaks to her routine was game-changing, in more ways than one. “After over 30 years in the health and wellness space, you’d think I had it all figured out. But my body taught me something powerful: it wasn’t about working harder but working with myself. These three small changes—each one intentional, aligned, and deeply feminine—completely transformed my body, energy, and confidence,” she says.

I Switched from “More” to “Smarter” Strength

The first thing she did? “I used to be the ‘more reps, more burn’ type. But when I hit 40, that approach started to backfire—hello joint pain, fatigue, and plateaus. I pivoted to corrective and functional strength training, using the principles I’m certified in. My workouts now center around movement quality, not quantity—glute activation, shoulder mobility, and stabilizer strength,” she says.

How It Helped

The result? “Less inflammation, a more sculpted physique, and a body that feels strong, sexy, and resilient from the inside out. I finally look like I'm training, but I also feel like I’m thriving,” she says.

I Added Feminine Flow to My Conditioning

“Along with the high-impact Tabata and circuits I used to live by, I began weaving in feminine flow—short sensual HIIT sessions that move with my energy instead of against it. These aren’t watered-down workouts. They’re precise, rhythm-driven, and deeply intuitive. I go hard when I’m peaking, then I melt into slow, fluid recovery phases that still burn—but feel like dance,” she tells us.

How It Helped

How did it help her? “Especially during perimenopause, this shift helped me lean out without crashing my system. I stay fit, feminine, and magnetic—and I never feel like I’m punishing my body just to earn results,” she says.

I Always Activate My Sensual Core

“This one might surprise people: I never skip core—but I no longer isolate it with crunches. Every workout I do includes standing core engagement through pelvic tilts, spirals, rib cage mobility, and deep core activations. Think sensual strength with a purpose,” she explains.

“These movements fire up the inner core (yes, including the pelvic floor), improve posture, and shape the waistline naturally. But more than anything? They make me feel powerful, centered, and like I own every room I walk into,” she says. And if you enjoyed this article, take advantage of these 15 Quick Ways to Lose Body Fat Percentage in a Week.

Are you on Ozempic or another GLP-1 and want to lose weight faster? “WARNING: Scrolling past the 7 W’s is a GLP-1 Mistake!” Aliza Olive, MD, a weight loss expert who co-founded GLP1Enhanced to help people on their weight loss journeys, writes in a new social media post. “You know that feeling when you’re doing all the things… but the scale’s moving slower than a sloth on NyQuil? Ever feel like you’re missing the secret sauce? Like, what’s the ONE thing keeping the scale from budging? So, you start searching for the one missing piece—maybe a secret supplement or that one viral hack… Except, real results don’t come from magic. The real results, that will last a lifetime, come from mastering The 7 W’s,” she claims. Here they are:

Weights

Weights, aka strength training, is a great way to lose weight faster on Ozempic. “Lift at least 2x per week. Muscle = faster metabolism = easier fat loss,” says Dr. Olive. According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

  • Develop strong bones
  • Manage your weight
  • Enhance your quality of life
  • Manage chronic conditions
  • Sharpen your thinking skills.

Whole Foods

Designing your diet around whole foods is also helpful. “Protein, fiber, and nutrients first (especially on GLP-1s)… but still room for the foods you love. Balance wins every time,” she writes.

Water

Water and hydration are also essential. “Helps keep things… moving and keeps fake hunger at bay,” Dr. Olive explains. According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is essential for various reasons. Water helps eliminate waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature regular, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

Walking

Dr. Olive also recommends walking 8- 10k steps daily. It helps with “digestion support + calorie burn without exhausting yourself,” she says. A 2018 study published in Obesity found a link between walking 10,000 steps a day and weight loss and weight management. Other studies published by the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) in JAMA Neurology and in JAMA Internal Medicine also linked walking 10,000 steps a day to less dementia and less cardiovascular disease overall, with less heart disease, less heart failure, and fewer strokes.

Wake Up

She also recommends waking up at a reasonable time. “Stop snoozing. The longer you lay there, the more excuses creep in. Just get up,” she says.

Wins

She also recommends focusing on wins. “Start your day with one small win (like water before coffee) and ride that momentum,” she says.

Weekends

And, finally, don’t neglect yourself on weekends. “Not every weekend is special. If they all were, none of them would be. Find ways to enjoy yourself without feeling like Monday is a reset,” she says.

Bottom Line

Weight management medications like GLP-1 receptor agonists have transformed treatment options for many struggling with obesity, but they come with significant costs and potential pitfalls. Dr. Jennifer McCann, a board-certified OB/GYN and Obesity Medicine specialist, warns that simply taking these medications without proper guidance can lead to disappointing results. "As a provider, I'm frustrated because there are a lot of providers prescribing this medicine without any counseling about lifestyle changes with diet and exercise," says Dr. McCann. Understanding the right approach to these medications could save you thousands of dollars and prevent the frustrating weight regain cycle that many experience.

Muscle loss undermines your success

The weight you lose on GLP medications might come back with a vengeance if you're not careful about how you lose it. "If you're just starving yourself, you're gonna be losing your lean body mass and you're gonna gain the weight back and maybe even more," Dr. McCann cautions in her post. The reason is simple but often overlooked – muscle burns calories continuously throughout the day, and when you lose muscle instead of fat, your metabolism slows down. This metabolic downshift makes maintaining weight loss nearly impossible for many patients, according to Dr. McCann.

Protein intake becomes critical

When appetite suppression kicks in, many patients struggle with getting adequate nutrition. Dr. McCann emphasizes that protein should be your top priority. "If you don't feel like eating on these medications, then you need to make sure you at least take in two things during the day," she advises. Those two non-negotiables are protein and water. Your muscles need protein to maintain their mass during weight loss, and without adequate intake, your body will break down muscle tissue for energy – exactly what you don't want during weight management.

Quality matters for protein sources

Not all protein sources provide the same benefits during GLP-1 treatment. "I have always, for over a decade, recommended this Cornerstone meal replacement," says Dr. McCann. She explains that high-quality protein supplements with added vitamins and minerals can help ensure you're getting essential nutrients even when your appetite is significantly reduced. Two protein-rich meal replacements daily can provide the foundation your body needs while the medication works to control hunger and blood sugar levels.

Exercise preserves muscle function

The second pillar of successful weight management on GLP medications is regular physical activity. "Resistance training is great. It helps build your muscle," Dr. McCann notes. You don't need to become a gym enthusiast overnight – even modest amounts of exercise make a difference. Dr. McCann suggests starting with just 15-20 minutes of activity and gradually increasing duration and intensity. This approach helps preserve muscle mass while the medication helps control appetite.

Compound medications are disappearing

If you've been using compounded versions of GLP medications, significant changes are coming. "The compounded GLPs are gone," Dr. McCann states. She explains that tirzepatide (the active ingredient in Zepbound and Mounjaro) has been removed from the FDA shortage list, meaning compounding pharmacies can no longer legally produce it. Semaglutide (found in Ozempic and Wegovy) compounds will soon follow the same path, leaving many patients wondering about their options.

Manufacturer price drops offer relief

Despite the end of compounded options, there's encouraging news for patients. "Don't panic. The companies have actually lowered their cash price, and this is great news for patients," Dr. McCann reassures. Brand-name manufacturers have introduced more affordable options in response to market demands and increased production capacity. These price reductions make the FDA-approved versions more accessible to patients who were previously relying on compounded alternatives.

Tirzepatide becomes more affordable

For patients preferring tirzepatide (Zepbound/Mounjaro), Eli Lilly has created a more budget-friendly option. "Instead of having it in the auto-injectors, they are sending it in vials, just like the compounded pharmacies did," Dr. McCann explains in another post. This shift in delivery method allows for significant cost savings. According to Dr. McCann, patients can now get the 10mg dose for approximately $500 per month compared to $1,200-$1,500 for the auto-injector version when paying cash.

Getting the discounted version requires specific steps. "Any prescriber should be able to send this from their EHR. They just have to look for the Eli Lilly pharmacy in their e-prescribe," says Dr. McCann. She notes that the 5mg, 7.5mg, and 10mg doses are all available at the $500 cash price. There's also an option for patients with insurance that doesn't cover the medication, priced around $650. These vials require self-injection rather than using the auto-injector device.

Special handling requirements

These medications require proper storage to maintain effectiveness. "You do have a shipping cost in there. It does have to be shipped on ice because it needs to be refrigerated," Dr. McCann points out. This refrigeration requirement is standard for all GLP-1 medications, whether in vial or auto-injector form. The shipping costs add a small premium to the base price but still represent significant savings compared to previous options.

Success with GLP medications requires a comprehensive approach. "Protein, exercise, keep your muscle so you at least have a chance of keeping the weight off," summarizes Dr. McCann. While the medications provide powerful appetite control and metabolic benefits, they work best as part of a complete strategy. By focusing on preserving muscle mass through adequate protein intake and regular exercise, patients maximize their chances of maintaining weight loss long-term, even as medication options and pricing continue to evolve.
