Fitness expert Jennifer Nicole Lee had some quick and simple exercises to help you get back your bikini body, on The Early Show.
Lee is a mother of two who shed about 70 pounds after having her second child. It led to her winning the title of Ms. Bikini America, the first-ever Ms. Muscle and Fitness crown, and inspired Kirstie Alley's weight loss.
Lee is a personal trainer with an annual "Bikini Boot Camp" in South Beach, and a certified nutritionist and life coach.
According to Lee, there are three F's that equal an A in exercising. They are form, full range of motion, and focus. She says fitness is for everyone, at all levels. Work within your own capabilities to get better and stronger each day. And always bear in mind that the keys to weight loss are exercise and eating right.
