The Master Cleanser Diet, or as popularly known; The Lemonade Diet was created by the late Naturopath Stanley Burroughs. The Diet consists of fasting to rid the body of toxins, created by improper diet, lack of exercise and negative mental attitudes.

Here are 3 Beyonce Knowles Lemonade Diet Secrets to get you started on the Master Cleanse quickly and effectively.

Beyonce Knowles Lemonade Diet Secret #1
Most people, including experienced Master Cleansers tend to experience uncomfortable, unpleasant moments during the first 3 days of the Master Cleansers. Often, it gets uncomfortable and irritable to the point that they just dropped out of the cleanse. But once you get past the first 3 days, the rest of the cleanse is going to be a breeze. So if you are doing the Master Cleanse for the first time, watch out for this roadblock.

Beyonce Knowles Lemonade Diet Secret #2
When you are feeling the side effects of the cleansing process, most of us will be tempted to take aspirin to help alleviate the migraine which is the natural results of toxins being purged from inside our bodies. However it is not advisable to do so because aspirin are chemicals which will add more toxins to the body. What you can do to help relieve the migraine is to drink more water to expedite the cleansing process. The faster and more toxins the body can remove, the faster the reliefs from the side effects of the detoxification process will be.

Beyonce Knowles Lemonade Diet Secret #3
Hoodia is a natural herb that has been used by San Bushmen in the Kalahari Desert of Africa for thousands of years. It is used as an appetite suppressant. It can be added into your Master Cleanse Lemonade diet to help suppress your hunger pangs. Just be reminded to follow the recommended dosage.

But that's not all....

According to SELF's June issue, she puts in the work. To get a tour-worthy body--one that can handle singing and dancing at the same time--the star works out five days a week with her trainer. Those workouts include 100 squats, step-ups and walking lunges (each!).

She makes it fun. An upper body workout can get boring with all those repetitions, so Knowles added her own twist. "I'll put on a song that I really like and do [biceps curls with] 5-pound weights the whole song," she told us. Or, using 3-pound weights, she'll box for the length of one track as mentioned in www.howcelebritiesloseweight.com

She knows how to motivate herself. A What's the point of running, if you're not running towards something? Knowles keeps a painting of an Oscar at the gym, so she's literally running towards her next goal. "I look at it, and I'm like OK, I have to stay in shape," she admits.

She's consistent.A From the beginning of rehearsals on January 19 to the start of her tour on March 26, Knowles practiced her choreography for nine hours a day, seven days a week--while wearing 5-inch stilettos. Think it's tough to make it through the workday? That's 603 hours in heels! The star admits, "When I come home and take them off, I'm like, "Oh, my God! I wish I could just chop my feet off!"

She understands the importance of confidence. A Transforming into Sasha Fierce is more than putting on a teeny-tiny costume and sky-high heels. To become her alter ego, Knowles rehearses her sexy walk. "It's about self-esteem," she instructs. "It's in the hips. Lean back, stretch your neck, keep your shoulders low, point your toes and cross one foot in front of the other." Anyone can do it!

LL Cool J’s platinum workout

Take a look at LL Cool J (Ladies Love Cool James) and you can see that a ton of work went into his body. You don't get in the shape he's in by putting in 50% effort, eating junk, and skipping workouts. You want a body as finely sculpted as LL Cool J? You have to do these strict workouts as shown in www.howcelebritiesloseweight.com

"So when I say whole body circuit training, I like to incorporate movements that really stress the largest muscles of the body. For example, we might do a set of squats (or leg presses), immediately followed by a set of pull-ups, or rows, and alternate back and forth for 3-4 sets. No rest between sets. Then rest 30-60 seconds, hit the chest with some dips, pushups, or bench, followed immediately by jumping lunges done with an overhead press." (holding dumbbells).

"Do this combo for 3-4 sets, and then we might do a boxing circuit where Todd is sparring with me for 1-2 minutes and between those sets, he's doing body weight jump squats. Follow all of this with interval training on a treadmill or outside on a track, depending on our setting, and he's slammed for the day."

"When I say interval training, we'll go 30 seconds of an all out sprint, followed by a 60 second jog, another 30 seconds sprint, etc. We did this routine this morning --- 10 sets of sprints, 10 jogs."
"There will be times I tell Scooter it's physically impossible for me to take 1 more step. And I can push it and do-but this man helps motivate me and really pushes hard. I've done the training; I've gone through the motions and done the endless sets of curls, leg extensions, etc on my own. That doesn't work like whole body, circuit training."

"I feel like one of those cartoons where my heart is pumping out of my chest, my muscles are burning, and I can't take another step. It's crazy hard and I'm the best shape of my life for a reason."

Nutrition:

LL Cool J has a couple different weight loss methods. For one thing, we all know nutrition is over half the battle of getting in shape-I can give anyone the absolute best workout in the world on a daily basis, but if they're putting mud in their gas tank, it ain't gonna' cut it.

People get all caught up in the details, but sometimes they really just need the basics. So you can see in those charts the best carbs are loaded in fiber, the protein choices are loaded with amino acids for growth and recovery, and the fat choices are great sources of omega-3's and other healthy fats, yet lower in saturated fat as discussed in www.howcelebritiesloseweight.com

"I have never felt as good as I do now since changing my nutrition. Scooter Pie is insane, but in a good way. It's all good and it's helped make me the best physically. He'll be cooking for us on the bus, telling waiters how to prepare our food... that's what it takes. Dedication is at every turn. But I'm not saying you need a trainer, chef or anyone else to get results. The book lays the ground work for smart training and nutrition."
The quest for success should never end. The second you think you've reached the top, is the second your success comes to a screeching halt. Take nothing for granted, as it could all end tomorrow says bodybuilding.com.

Channing Tatum Fit

William J. Harris, Channing Tatum's trainer from "Fighting" and also the trainer from Billion Dollar Bodies, shares with us Channing Tatum's exercise routines and diet. These are the secrets that he uses to a body like this as seen in www.howcelebritiesloseweight.com



'Channing was in decent shape when I started working with him but like a lot of guys, he likes to eat fast food and sink a few drinks,' says William J Harris, the New York-based personal trainer.

Bulking up, however, wasn’t on the agenda. ‘Channing didn't need to get bigger,’ says Harris. ‘In fact, we wanted him to shed some weight to make him look more agile, more like a fighter. The program I devised help him shift about 30 pounds in the three weeks before filming started.’

But rocking up to the set looking like a bodybuilder wouldn’t work either. ‘He needed to have strength, flexibility and endurance so I came up with a routine of rope turns and calisthenic bodyweight exercises, such as jumping jacks, burpees, press-ups, pull-ups and squats, to help him build that. I also threw in some classic compound moves using barbells and kettlebells.’

Exercise Routine

Tatum was given three exercises to perform each session and had to complete as many 'rounds' as he could within 20 minutes. 'Working out at a high intensity keeps the heart pumping and burns more calories,' says Harris. 'For the main barbell lifts, such as deadlifts, military presses, squats and clean and jerks, we found a weight Channing could lift quickly and comfortably ten times while maintaining perfect form.’

‘We changed what we did every session to keep his mind engaged and his body guessing,’ Harris says. 'I put him through a three-day-on, one-day-off routine and kept workouts to just 30 minutes. If you keep the intensity high you don't need to train for any longer than that.'

If you're more concerned with putting on muscle than burning fat, add more weight to these lifts and focus on completing four rounds in the session, rather than as many as you can in 20 minutes as stated in www.howcelebritiesloseweight.com

Day One
Warm-up – Five-minute jog.
Main workout – 20 minutes to do as many rounds as possible of 100 rope skips, 10 pull-ups and five clean and jerks.
Cool down – Five-minute light jog and stretching.

Day Two
Warm-up – Five-minutes of skipping.
Main workout – 20 minutes to do as many rounds as possible of 20 burpees, 15 hanging leg raises and 20 bodyweight squats.
Cool down – Five minutes of skipping and stretching.

Day Three
Warm-up – Five minutes of skipping.
Main workout – 20 minutes to do as many rounds as possible of 400m sprints, 10 kettlebell swings and 10 press-ups.
Cool down – Five-minute light jog and stretching.

Day Four
Rest day before starting the routine again. To avoid getting bored during the following weeks, mix up the exercises from different sessions or include some of the additional ones listed below, but leave at least one day's rest between exercises that work the same muscle groups.

Other exercises to do:
25 burpees
75 press-ups
50 sit-ups
25 box jumps
Five deadlifts
50 walking lunges
20 jumping jacks
Five military press
10 bench press

Diet is just as important

Exercise is not enough though to get these kind of results. Having a healthy diet to go with it will get you these results.

Tatum's daily diet
Harris was responsible for Tatum’s diet, too. 'Just as exercise is all about intensity, food is all about quality,’ says Harris. ‘So we swapped the unhealthy ingredients in the food Channing likes for healthy ones – we gave him lean turkey rather than beef, for example, and swapped takeaway pizzas for homemade wholewheat ones topped with organic veggies. Processed and frozen foods, salt, sugar and alcohol were all no-nos.’
Here is an example of a typical days diet:

Breakfast: Omelette with veg, wholewheat toast and an orange.
Snack: Apple and unsalted nuts.
Lunch: Grilled chicken breasts, spinach and sweet potato.
Snack: Cottage cheese and mixed nuts.
Dinner: Turkey burger with mixed veg.
Snack: Yoghurt and a handful of almonds.
