How I got my splits! (click on photos to make them bigger)

Stretch 1 - Try not to let the front knee come beyond the toes. Having your toes on your back leg curled under will make it slightly easier for beginners.

Stretch 2 - Stand up with your legs apart and just get as low as you can go!

Stretch 3 - Sit back on one leg (so your foot is under your bum) with the other leg straight in front, and bend over your front leg as far as you can.

Stretch 4 - One leg bent in front and the other directly behind. This yoga pose is called One Legged Pigeon

Stretch 5 - Yoga mermaid pose, don’t stress if you can’t do this straight away, it’s a big quad stretcher, don’t force this - it’ll come with time!

Do all stretches on both legs!

  • Do these AFTER you are warmed up (I suggest cardio) otherwise you may hurt yourself.
  • Practise every day with one day rest and try to hold each pose for at least 30 seconds.
  • It took me 1.5 months to get my right split and 2 months to get my left. Everyone is different so you could need more or less time than I did, but be patient!
  • LISTEN TO YOUR BODY!! If your muscles are really hurting, light stretching only! Don’t force it!
  • Take rests days!! VERY IMPORTANT. Your muscles need rest to repair otherwise you will overstretch and hurt yourself.

I track the tag #beckyfitness, I’d love to see your split progress!!

Yoga poses for cellulite

Cellulite is a symptom of “reduced lymph circulation,” says a weight loss expert Atma Levitt. This decreased circulation causes the lymph to be deposited in different parts of our body forming what we know as cellulite which leads to unsightly weight gain and spongy thighs. Yoga is an important way to combat this condition.

HEALTHY THICK & CHEWY VEGAN WALNUT BROWNIES

makes about 12 brownies:

  • 1 cup of flour (wholegrain to make it super healthy)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup of brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup of 100% cocoa powder
  • 1 cup rice milk or soy milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup of apple sauce
  • 1/2 cup or more of crushed walnuts

Mix all dry ingredients together in a bowl; in a separate bowl combine all moist ingredients. Once both mixtures are well stirred, slowly add the wet part to the dry part. Mix until its a nice chocolatey mess. To check taste and consistency have a little try and add whatever you feel is lacking, i.e. more sugar, more vanilla or maybe some nutmeg? 

Poor the finished mixture into a greased cake tray and pop it into a preheated oven at around 200 degrees for 30 - 40 minutes. To make sure its baked all the way through stick a clean sharp knife into the brownies; if the knife comes out with no brownie residue it’s ready. Enjoy!

P.s. Adding some chocolate spread as glazing makes these brownies extra delicious.
