If you're reading this, chances are you either watched the VMAs or have stumbled across Teyana Taylor's hot bod featured in Kanye West's new

FADE

video.  Whatever your reason is, there's no hiding the fact that Teyana's body has women nationwide signing up for new gym memberships, Tweeting and Instagramming about their 'body goals', and lots of us are probably making statements and unofficial promises we might not keep.

Teyana's body is bangin', but I absolutely hate when I see women Googling "How to Lose 10 Pounds Fast" or waiting on the perfect, end all be all answer of what Teyana does to look like a goddess. 

PSA: There is no quick fix to getting in shape!

  If you're new to my blog, you can read a few of my tips and advice for staying committed under the '

' tab.  If your goal is to get in shape, and that is a beautiful goal, you'll have to put in the effort and dedication and do it the healthy way.

So, what's Teyana's secret?  Simply put, this woman is beyond genetically blessed.  In past interviews, she jokes about "being allergic to vegetables" because she just can't stand eating her greens, and she doesn't stick to a diet plan.  She eats what she wants for the most part and is completely human...who just happens to have amazing genes...She also gave birth to her daughter a year ago if you didn't already know!

Teyana's go-to workouts are the Elliptical and Squats.  She says that she was born with a natural 6-pack and toned arms, so she focuses on areas where she'd like to improve: her legs and her butt.  Hey, we have that in common!

The Elliptical is puts much less impact on the joints, so if you struggle with the treadmill or have weak knees or ankles, definitely give it a try.  Switch up your resistance and your incline to target different muscle groups and vary your heart rate.

Squats...a woman's best friend.  If you're new to the squat game, start light with your body weight.  Pretend like you're sitting back into a chair, and keep your back straight and your knees in line with your toes. 

Do not let your knees go past your toes!

Here's a video showing my full glute workout so you can start building that Teyana-inspired booty.

For that lean look that Teyana has, I also can't recommend anaerobic training enough!  Here are a few of my tips:

All in all, there is absolutely no secret or life hack for getting Teyana Taylor's gorgeous body.  She's blessed and beautiful, but don't let that discourage you, and also DON'T let that be a reason for any self loathing comments.  I've already seen handfuls of comments of women hating on themselves: Just don't do it!  If you're inspired, let Teyana's sexy frame serve as motivation.

Don't wait until January to start a new journey or New Year's Resolution!  Now's a better time than any.
