DO YOU FEEL LIKE YOU ARE STUCK IN A RUT? 😔
IS THE SCALE NOT BUDGING OR YOUR CLOTHES NOT GETTING ANY LOSER?
HOW ABOUT SOME IDEAS FOR MOTIVATING YOU? 🤗
Let me help YOU find the ways to GET READY, GET SET and then GET RESULTS! 👍 One of the biggest factors in determining your health, fitness level and weight is that you must be moving your body every day! I don’t mean just from the car to work or taking kids to school, or maybe moving around your home cleaning up after everyone . . . yes, these are all important things, but you need to set time aside everyday (YES everyday) to move your body! Now, I don’t mean an intense workout every single day, but you should be getting your lungs breathing heavily, your blood flowing quickly, your muscles and joints being challenged. Have you heard the saying, “If you don’t use it, you lose it!”. ⚠️ That saying is so true , especially about every single organ, muscle and joint in your body! Also, with that comes one of the greatest benefits . . . YOU WILL ALSO LOSE WEIGHT!
You might be asking, where do I find the time to do this? 🤔 You must make it a priority! Everyone has 24 hours, 7 days a week and I have seen many people stay in great shape with crazy schedules! I must praise my husband, Tom, 💗who travels around the world for many years and still has maintained to stay in great shape and not gain weight (okay, maybe we both put on a some extra pounds during vacation, but you gotta enjoy too! 😀 ) But, when we get home, we focus on exercising everyday (some of those days are just stretching) eating clean and get ourselves back on track.
So, let me help you with a tool that I think helps many people stay on track and then GET RESULTS! Print out my Weekly Fitness Schedule below and at the beginning of every week, write down what time each day you are going to get yourself moving and what body part you will concentrate on! When you break down the body parts for exercise, you don’t get stuck in a rut, because you continually work and challenge every part of your body. You know what happens then? You will not get bored with the same workout and the best part . . . YOU WILL CREATE A STRONG, BALANCED & TONED BODY! Isn’t that what YOU are looking for? I know I am, and when I commit to moving my body, everything else seems to run more smoothly too.
Do you need some ideas for your workouts? Go to my blog for your workout ideas to help you get a workout in at home or on the road. I promise YOU this! If you do some form of movement/exercise every single day for 2 weeks, you will feel so much better and I bet you will also lose weight, trim down, feel more energetic, have a clearer mind and ready to stick with it! It will truly start to become a lifestyle that will benefit you for the rest of your life! 🙂
Hey, do you need some motivation to get yourself going? Why don’t you treat yourself (or as our daughter would say, “treat yo’ self ” 😀 ) to a little “gift” at the end of every week for achieving your weekly workout goals! Here are my suggestions as a personal trainer, because these “gifts” will also assist you in your fitness goals and be wonderful reminders of your progress!
8 WEEKS TO SUMMER Get Ready . Get Set . Get Results (1 inexpensive “gift” you give to yourself each week leading up to summer⛱)
Water Bottle . Hydration is so important while working out, but why not have one that is cute, and keeps your water cold! Seriously, even during the heat of summer these water bottles have kept my water cool and when it’s cold you will drink more too! Look at these great new colors!
Workout Top . Yes, we all love having something new to wear, so why not buy something that looks good, gives you support and makes you feel good too! This is one item that you will always use while working out and can never have too many . . . ok maybe you can have too many, but they will get great use! I love wearing a bright colored sports bra with a tank over it, it adds some great color to a normal, boring tank top!
Yoga Mat . If you don’t have one, I highly recommend getting one for your workouts, especially when you do your yoga and stretch day. It is nice to have a little bit of padding and also it’s a better way to hold your poses and not slip. How do these wonderful colors not motivate you to roll it out and do your yoga and/or stretching?
Candle . Seriously who doesn’t love the scent of a candle . . . now think about lighting this new candle while you are doing your stretching? Hey, you might like stretching so much more by lighting the candle, you might even do it more than one day a week! I find that when I light a candle that has a wonderful and calming scent (like jasmine or lavender) it relaxes my mind and body so much more, and the house smells good too!
Workout Bag . Whether you are doing your workout at home or at the gym, it’s always a great idea to have your bag ready to go at a moments notice with a few of your favorite fitness items. The weather is nice outside, grab your bag and take your workout outside! Getting ready to travel via plane or car, grab your bag and take your workouts with you!
Travel Bags . Whether you are traveling out of town, to the gym or just need a refresher in the car during the hot summer months, bring a cute travel bag to store items to freshen up after your workout! Maybe put in a facial towelette to cleanse your face, sunscreen, some powder to freshen your face, hair ties and then perfume. Now you are ready to go on with your day!
You Did It Bracelet . Wear this bracelet as a reminder to yourself about how hard you worked and how committed you are to living a healthy lifestyle by moving your body everyday. Sometimes it’s the simplest things we can wear that can have a huge impact on giving ourselves a little pat on the back for making wise choices, even when some days we did not want to do anything!
Ready Set Go Bag . You’ve done it, you’ve worked hard, now load up your bag with sunscreen, magazine, book, your water bottle, and head to the beach, pool or out shopping! Hey, you could even use it as a yoga bag to put your yoga mat in it! Reward yourself with a day (or maybe 1/2 a day or even an hour) by going and spending time relaxing and congratulating yourself on a job well done! 🏆
