Healthy Fitness Challenge: Week 11, Day 1

Every weekday, join "The Mo'Nique Show" on a 12-week workout program with Hollywood trainer Jeanette Jenkins.

Inspiration/Motivation: Step up to the challenge and take your workouts to the next level this week. You get out what you put in.
Warmup: Cardio. 30- to 60-minute Power Walk, Jog or Run with four 60 second sprints; Stretch-it-Out.

Exercise of the Day: Full-body oblique. Will help you strengthen, tone and define your obliques and your entire core.

Exercise Tip: Flexibility work is one of the most overlooked components of fitness. Make sure you take the time to stretch after your cardio and strength-training workouts. Tight muscles can pinch on your nerves creating pain, especially sciatica.
Meal Plan

Breakfast: Egg white oatmeal frittata with cottage cheese, strawberries, bananas and apple sauce.

Snack: Grapefruit and ten walnuts.

Lunch: Whole wheat pasta with chicken, broccoli, peppers, onions, mushrooms, and tomato sauce. 

Snack: Apple.

Snack: Hummus and pita chips.

Dinner: Mixed green salad with grilled chicken, grapes, walnuts, feta cheese and balsamic dressing.

Dessert: Mixed berries.
Nutrition Tip: Focus on getting more of the foods that you should be eating and the unhealthy foods will be crowded out. Start by making sure you have a green vegetable at all three meals plus two pieces of fruit; an orange or yellow vegetable and three to four servings of protein.
