PerfectLeanBody is focusing on exercises that make your body perfect, lean, fit, strong and healthy. Simple, intense, effective home fitness videos and diet tips.
As I am looking out of the window of my apartment in the Czech republic, it is raining. What a nice relaxing day. Day made for watching tv, massage, sauna, eating something delicious, meeting friends and the family.
Czech cuisine is not very healthy, but once in a while it is ok. Check it out on the picture. Just remember healthy choices and moderation is the key.
We are almost at the end of our 60 days training program.
Together we had a chance to train together, follow fitness and diet tips. As always something is ending, something new is beginning.
Today`s training is very, very hard. It shows how serious you trained during those 60 days, how smooth/hard you breathe through the workout, how good is your endurance and strength. All in one intense brutal training.
Fit test is very intense short workout. You can modify, so please do not give up.
And after Christmas it is perfect one for getting in great shape.
Are you serious about getting fit and lean? If yes, then let`s do this.
Have a great day,
Pavla

the Christmas day is here. I wish you to spend this day with the one you love, with your family, friends.
Christmas time means for many of us eating delicious food. How to stay lean and fit during Christmas holidays? Find few minutes every day to workout. It can be while you are watching television or while you have a break. I like to workout in the morning, but when I am very busy, I split my training to few times a day. For example in the morning push ups, lunch time lunges, evening abs.
Todays training is great, because I put two lower body workouts together. One is for you in the morning and the other one in the evening.
Let`s shape and tone our glutes, have amazing body and look great.
Merry Christmas to you all!
With love,
Pavla

This morning I did the training and I feel so good. It is the night over here, I did the workout in the morning and I am still sore. I love that feeling.
My big fear during my visit in the Czech republic is/was that I gain weight, because I do not go to the gym over here. All my family members are feeding me like there is not food in USA:-).
But honestly, since I do everyday my workouts I feel self-confident, proud, strong, fit and I can still eat some very tasty (fatty or sweet:-)) Czech traditional food (in moderation) and stay lean and fit.
I want to thank you for your emails, support, comments and help you give me. I appreciate each of you.
Today`s training is excellent for your upper and lower back. I tried this training with two bodybuilders and they were looking at me like they do not like pilates or yoga, I told them to try and they were surprised how good it is and how different it is from weight machines.
We did 10min jump rope before the back workout and then 10min jump rope after the workout.
Great feeling after the workout, you have to try that.
Enjoy your day!

how are you doing? Are you getting excited about Christmas Eve coming so soon?:-)
I had today one of the most beautiful day I could have with my daughter Sophia. As we woke up and had breakfast, we went to downtown of Brno. We walked a lot and took a train, which was the most exciting moment for her.:-). We had traditional Czech "bramborak" - potato pancake, made of deep fried potatoes with garlic and sausage, ou yes very good, unhealthy food!:-). Then we visited few very old churches with different architecture, so beautiful. I realized how much we walk over here in the Czech republic and how healthy walking is.
How often do you go for a walk? Try every day walk at least for 30min.
That was my day in my hometown Brno and now back to the training today. Training has two parts, first one is great high intense energetic workout. I did this video about a year ago and I can proudly say I did great improvement since then. My body is leaner and more defined. I gain strength and I can do more reps in shorter time, that means I am more fit and my fitness level is higher.
Sometimes we are not patient and want to see results early, but if you work hard for what you want, you reach your goal.
Consistency, patience and motivation is the key to your success.
Have a great, fun day!

I am finally back home in the Czech republic, to spend Christmas holidays with my family and friends.
After I arrived I took a little nap and then went to downtown Brno to see the Christmas tree and had hot spicy wine. I realized that I walk a lot comparing to Indianapolis and therefore people are less overweight. But also I noticed many people (especially young ones) smoking on the street.
Then I went with my friends to the dance club and we danced for couple of hours.
I am going to start working out tomorrow, every day 30min of fat burn intense workout.
Training today is great! Try it, your body deserve it!
Have a great day!
