Giveaway Time!!!!

Good morning everyone!!!! I am so excited today, because....

It's time for my giveaway!!!

For those who are not on my Facebook page, my goal was to get 100 likes. Once I did that I would have a giveaway. Well, I reached it yesterday! YAY!!!

So, without further ado, the awesomeness.

For this giveaway, you will have a choice of to Beachbody programs. If you are trying to lose weight, gain muscle, or even maintain what you have now, this is the best giveaway ever for you!

Here are the choices:

21 Day Fix

This is a BRAND NEW program. It's coming out in early February. It is created by a brand new trainer to the company, and is completely different than any of the other programs we offer. It is only 21 days long (hence the name). Unlike our other programs, instead of a meal plan, it comes with color coded portion control boxes. If it fits, you can eat it!

Les Mills Combat

Combat is a GET UP AND FIGHT kind of workout. If you are trying to get some frustration out, this is the way to go. It's like kickboxing on steroids. It's hardcore, just like your body will be when you are done!

(The links are so that you can see the videos and info for the programs. If you are interested in ordering a program or Shakeology, please contact me directly.)

Requirements: You must be subscribed to my blog, as well as like my Facebook page. Please go through the Rafflecopter box to do so.

Changes!

For the month of November, I have decided to push myself to make some changes. Some will be small, others not so much.

Some small changes: revamping my website, making a to-do list every day, and meditating daily.

A few BIG changes: reaching out to at least 2 people a day about Beachbody, doing more challenging workouts weekly, and creating a monthly meal plan.

All of these are focused on growth, both for myself and my family. I need to make changes if I want to go different places, as we all do. People wonder why they aren't getting the lives they desire. It's because they are afraid of change. I was there too. But, I have realized fear is just worry... about things that may never even happen. If you keep living in fear, nothing will happen, good or bad.

So, I have decided to take a leap of faith. Just push harder and see where it takes me. And when I begin to feel nervous our afraid, I can meditate to regain my center and realize there's nothing to fear.

If you have been thinking about doing something, but are afraid what may happen, DO IT ANYWAY! Something bad may happen, sure, but something amazing could happen as well.

July "Beachbody Mommy" Challenge **free**

Hey everyone! Just letting you guys know that I am running a Beachbody Challenge for mommies only during the month of July. I hear tons of people say they wish they could get their pre-baby body back, or have enough energy to keep up with their little ones. I was the same way. But then I signed up to be a coach, and started working out and drinking Shakeology every morning. I feel and look great!

Now is the perfect time to do this challenge! You need that extra energy to keep up with kids that are out of school for summer. Also, for those who don't know where to start, this is the opportunity of a lifetime. You get coaching from me, plus a group to hold you accountable and provide support.

If you are interested in learning more please contact me on Facebook or shoot me an email. In the meantime please check out the Challenge Packs available. You get a full workout set, plus a month supply of Shakeology to start you of on the right foot! Hope to hear from you soon.

Aftermath of Burn Circuit 1

So this is going to be a review of Chalean Extreme's Burn Circuit 1. If interested in purchasing the Challenge pack for this program, or checking out the Summer Sale that is going on this week,

For those of you that are new to this program:

Chalean Extreme is broken into three phases: Burn, Push, and Lean. The burn phase teaches you how to do the moves correctly, as well as how to control the movements. You do 10-12 reps of each move. The push phase has you lift heavier, but do only 6-8 reps. Finally, the lean phase sculpts and leans you out by working numerous muscles at the same time.

A few days ago, I pushed through Burn Circuit 1 at 11pm. Like I said in a previous post, NO MORE EXCUSES! Here is the list of moves, and I will touch on a few of them in detail.

-Sumo Squat with Hip Lift
-Lunge with Posterior Fly
-Pushup with Leg Lift
-Dead Lift with Posterior Fly
-Lunge with Core Rotation
-Bench Press with Leg Lower
-Squat with Side Bend
-Lunge with Double Posterior Fly
-Chest Fly with Hip Lift

My favorite moves from this series are The Squat with Side Bend and the Lunge with Core Rotation, because they both work my core, which is my trouble area. The hardest move for me is the Pushup with Leg Lift. It is done exactly the way it sounds. You do a pushup, then lift a leg. Anything pushup is hard for me, and I end up doing 8 out of 12 on my knees.

The best part of this program is that you can use any type of resistance (weights, bands, or just body weight). There is always someone doing the modified version so you can follow with them if you need to. The program came with a resistance band as well as a toner band, which helps build even more resistance. Also included in this weight training regimen is a few stretch modules, and some cardio for a well rounded routine.

The only thing I don't like about this is the music. I started out with TurboFire, which has Chalene's remixed music. It is awesome. So when I got this one, I figured it would have some motivating beats. Nope. Fast paced elevator music. BOOOOO! But it gives you the option to forgo the music, so I usually do that and pump up the Pandora.

All in all, great program for people looking for a weight training routine. To get the most out of it, you do need to follow the schedule and food guidelines (you do not have to, I am doing the schedule but sticking with my own diet).
