Are YOU ready to take the Beachbody Challenge?

Are you Ready to Take the Beachbody Challenge?
Every month I will be hosting a challenge for people to take part in but it’s not going to be like any other challenge, this will be quite different. I have hosted VERY successful challenges and have seen a lot of my friends and customers have GREAT results and success but there was also something that bothered me when I hosted them… it bothered me so much that I actually haven’t hosted a challenge in a while. What bothered me was that so many people would commit and then only a handful would follow through. I blamed myself for that because maybe there was something I personally could have done to make them stay on track and stay strong. BUT I realized it would be impossible for me to do that with the large number of challengers I had each time.
SO This is going to be very small and intimate with only 5 people and we all will commit to our fitness goals, health goals, diet, and stay accountable to one another. We will all be in this together and what is so cool about these challenges I will be hosting starting in November is that we will all be doing the SAME THING… we will all be doing the same workout program, drinking shakeology, tracking our progress, staying connected in our private facebook group, etc. So if you are thinking “well I don’t have shakeology” well then YES what I am saying is you will have to commit to getting on shakeology and drinking it 1x per day. This will be a commitment for the 5 people I take in and I want us all to be 100% committed… I plan on giving 110% of myself to YOU to help you reach success and I want you to have the same commitment!
By joining my challenge you will automatically get 1 month FREE of Beachbody Club membership (WOO HOO!) this is a great tool to have for all of us because we will all be starting at a different point in our fitness. With the club membership you will get a customizable meal planner that will make reaching your goals even easier. Oh and by thew way, another HUGE BONUS is you get 10% off all your beachbody products by being a Club Member. You’ll also be entered into daily drawings when you track your workouts online to win CASH just for working out!
Before I recap the exact details I want you to ask yourself these questions….
1. Do you want to get healthy?
2. Do you want to fit in your skinny jeans?
3. Do you want to look in the mirror and feel GOOD about what you see?
4. Do you want to have energy?
5. Do you want to add years onto your life ?
6. Do you want to set a good example for your children or friends?
7. Do you want to have a more positive attitude?
8. Do you want to build relationships with others going through the same things?
9. Do you want to have more confidence
10.Do you want to get your life on track and start a new healthy lifestyle?
I think we all want those things and THIS challenge is the answer to help you achieve those goals. It takes 21 days to create a habit and with this you will have others looking to see if you did your workout and hearing from YOU that day so that accountability will keep you on track!

Motivation?

What's your motivation?

Sometimes you may not feel like getting your workout in. Or maybe you don't feel like eating healthy anymore. When these times come, it's important to remember your motivation.

Do you want to be healthy for your kids?

Do you want to be healthy so you feel better?

Do you want to be healthy so you're around for your friends?

Do you want to like what you see when you look in the mirror?

Maybe fit back into some old clothes?

Perhaps it's just because you want to be a motivator for others?

Determine your motivation. Write it down. Put it everywhere. Make it your screen saver on  your computer. Put it on your wallpaper on your phone. Put a post it note on your steering wheel. Remind yourself always about your WHY.

And while we're all allowed those days where we just don't feel like it, make sure it's not happening all the time. If it is, reset yourself. Reingage. Jump back in and you'll be SO glad you did. Once you start seeing results, sometimes that's all the motivator you'll need.

So next time you're just not feeling it, look at your "WHY". Tell yourself even a quick 10 minute workout is better than none. Press play and you'll be glad you did. Have you ever met someone who regretted getting a good workout in? Thanks to Chalene Johnson for reminding me of that. :)

So GO PRESS PLAY!

Weights or Cardio?

I sat here thinking long and hard about what my FIRST post should be about. That's a lot of pressure, you know. The inaugural post. It should be something memorable. Something that matters. Something that will make you want to come back again. Then it hit me. One of the most misunderstood parts of working out and getting fit is cardio versus resistance training. SO many women think that hours on the treadmill is all it takes to 'get skinny'. That's so far from the truth - AND I'm passionate about spreading that word.

So there you go. My first post is to help YOU figure out what kind of workout is best for your goals.

Now, please don't misunderstand. Cardio IS super important. It's good for your heart, lungs, and for burning calories. But that's the rub. The calories you burn during cardio is all over once you stop. What you likely want is to burn more calories even while you're at rest...right? To do that, you need to build muscle. MUSCLE burns more calories - even while you're at rest. Yep, that's right. If you have lean muscle, you're burning more calories while you're just sitting around. Watching TV. Even sleeping. Can't beat that, huh?

Guys and girls build muscle differently. Girls do not have enough testosterone to get 'bulky', so ladies, don't shy away from those weights. A good rule of thumb is to still get your cardio in a few days a week, but you do not need to spend hours on the treadmill or outside walking. Instead, do 30-60 minutes of your normal cardio a few days a week, and then add in 3 days a week of strength training. They key here is to work your muscles to exhaustion. If you're not feeling the burn in the muscle you're working, your weights are TOO light.

Now, there's tons more detail about what kind of things to do, not to do, and even some great tips I have on  making your cardio routine more effective too. A different post though...stay tuned! :)

Tell me, what is your routine now? Have you tried strength training before? If you need advice on a particular strength training routine, let me know - I can help you get one planned! You can comment here, or you can always email me at - Fithappy@yahoo.com
