As a health and fitness writer for Yahoo! Health, Gabrielle Reece has really outdone herself with this latest dumbbell circuit workout. I’ve done the butt workout and the abs and core workout but this new one (that I just did today) will really put you to the test. The workout is an all over toning workout that incorporates both the lower body and the upper body so you’re working twice as hard. Reece also throws in some cardio moves too to keep the heart rate up. There are 11 exercises in the circuit and you should strive to complete the whole circuit three to four times.

As a contributor to Yahoo Health, Gabrielle Reece has given all kinds of good tips on diet and exercise. Be it her master cleanse diet or her abs and core workout, it’s always good stuff that promises a fit physique. This month she has devised the butt blast workout which will really get those buns burning.
In her article she first advises to do plenty of stretching and warming up before starting the exercises because since we are sedentary creatures who sit at the desk all day and on the sofa all night the glutes and hamstrings are often tight and shortened. For each of the below exercises do 2 to 3 sets and 8 to 10 reps per set.

Model and volleyball superstar Gabrielle Reece is a contributor for Yahoo Health. In her latest entry she has devised a 30-day health challenge that holistically targets exercise, nutrition, and lifestyle habits to reach our goals. She claims that it’s not ‘rocket science’ but something doable and fun to do with a friend. Thus far, she has explained how to approach Days 1-7.
Day 1: Lifestyle – Buy a planner and write down your goals for the next 30 days as well as things that need to be done. Then mark them off once you accomplish them.

Day 3: Diet – Measure out 70 ounces of water and drink that through out the day, not all at once. Do this every day from here on out.
Day 4: Lifestyle – Contact a friend and ask him/her to join you in the lifestyle challenge.
Day 5: Fitness – Add stretches to your morning walk that you started back on Day 2. Here is Gabrielle’s list of stretches:
1. rectus abdominus (core stretch)
2. child’s pose – reach arms way out front (back stretch)
3. & 4. grab toe with arm, reach over and switch legs (hamstring, lat stretch)
5. runners lunge – try to touch forearms to the ground and switch legs (hamstring stretch)
6. runners lunge with a toe grab, or just stand up and grab quad (quad and hamstring stretch)
7. triceps stretch – goal is to bring your fingertips in between shoulder blades (triceps stretch)
8. hamstring hang – (hamstring, lower back stretch)
Day 6: Diet – Remember breakfast, it’s the most important meal of the day because it gets the metabolism going.
Day 7: Lifestyle – Take a healthy snack to work and take enough to share with colleagues.
Stay tuned to get the inside scoop on Days 8-30.

Gabrielle Reece, the 6-foot-3 volleyball player and fashion model has a body that conveys athleticism and feminine beauty. As a professional athlete she surely gets great workouts, fortunately, we get to learn how she gets that body because she has a new job as contributing fitness expert to Yahoo! Health. Recently, she wrote about the benefits of doing a yearly cleanse, in particular, she practices the Master Cleanse method. She explained,
“I go on a soft food only diet for about 2 or 3 days: overly steamed veggies, sweet potatoes and soup broths. Then for five or six days I drink a series of juices: watermelon and lime for energy in the morning; lemon, cayenne pepper, water, and maple syrup to curb my appetite (this is the Master Cleanse drink); cucumber and strawberry for inflammation; and finally, a pineapple juice. All are made fresh and are full of fiber.”
Gabrielle goes on to explain that she does loose a few pounds but she actually sees many other benefits. She wrote,
1. I respect food more.
2. I notice what and how I am eating
3. My sensitivity to smell and flavor are elevated.
4. I am more selective about what I put in my body.
5. I appreciate that I do have such abundance around me.
6. My mind and mood feel balanced.
7. I think about other things.
8. My pants are looser and my knees hurt less.
9. I’m just happy to eat anything, even sprouts!
Gabrielle emphasizes that this is not a weight loss diet but a yearly body renewal. Other celebrity detox cleansers include Anne Hathaway and Gwyneth Paltrow.

Professional volleyball player and fashion model, Gabrielle Reece gives periodic fitness and exercise tips on Yahoo Lifestyle. Most recently she demonstrated a great workout consisting of 12 exercises that target the abs and core. Gabrielle explains the difference between core muscles and abdominal muscles,
“Let’s break down what your abs and your core consist of. Your core muscles extend from under your neck line all the way down to the mid-part of your thigh. Seriously, they are not just the muscles between your chest and bikini line. Those are your abs.”
She then made sure to point out that doing these 12 exercises is not the whole solution but you have to do cardio and have proper nutrition also.
“Keep in mind that these moves alone will not flatten and strengthen your belly without proper nutrition and cardiovascular exercise. A lot of us have abdominal muscles that are lurking below the surface of extra body fat we need to lose. So, it is imperative to attack this from all sides: smart exercise, proper nutrition, and minimizing stress.”
The 12 exercises are:
1. Standing Ballet Side Crunch
2. Standing Knee Front Crunch
3. Standing Elbow to Cross Knee Crunch
4. The Plank
5. Spiderman
6. Good Old-Fashioned Sit-Ups
7. Leg Raises
8. Side Oblique Crunch
9. Arms Straight Overhead Bend
10. One Leg Touch Crunch
11. Open Leg Pulse
12. Swivel Heel Touch
