Today I decided to hit the sauna after my workout. When I got in there I found a copy of what I think was US Magazine lying on the bench. Now normally I don’t pick up things that have been in the sauna, but there was an article about Katie Holmes that appealed to me. As I was reading the article it hit me- I had found my celebrity of the month for the month of August.
Since having her baby, Katie has done a great job of getting rid of the baby fat and getting back her great physique. However, that’s no surprise since she is known to come from a very athletic family. Her father is a fitness enthusiasist and has always encoruaged his family to stay active. It’s a tradition at the Holmes family to go out running together every thanksgiving. Katie enlisted the help of Sue Fleming, creator of Buff Brides, to get into great shape for her wedding. She would train 4-5 times a week and her workouts would be centered around compound movement exercises that targetted several muscle groups at once. Clearly, the work paid off as the results are evident.
If you want a body like Katie’s you have go put in the same effort. Keep your workouts intense and do a lot of bodyweight and compound movement exercises: pushups, lunges, squats, etc. This type of workout forces your body to burn a lot of calories and tone up the muscles.
I agree that it’s probably a bad idea to pick up magazines that are lying around in the sauna. You do not know where they have been.
I also hate Tom Cruise, and so I guess I hate Katie, too.
