You NEED a Fitness Plan!

I believe everyone needs a fitness plan.

Movement benefits everyone. It keeps your body in working order & just makes life a bit more fun. I know some of you struggle with exercise. You just don't want to do it. You look at it as a chore, something you have to do or should, instead of seeing it as FUN!

Yes, I said FUN!


For your workout program to benefit you, you need to find something you ENJOY. Something that makes you feel good after. You will only stick to a workout program if you enjoy it. So start looking for new ways to get in a workout.

I also STRONGLY suggest you add strength training to your program. Most woman think cardio is the only way to burn fat. WRONG!!! A combo of cardio & strength training is best.

Strength training also has many benefits. The pull of the muscle on your bones helps to strengthen them (your bones). Muscle also helps rev up your metabolism....which leads to more fat burning. Who doesn't want that?

Lifting weights will TOTALLY RESHAPE your body!


LADIES!!! You WILL NOT get huge from lifting weights. We just don't have the testosterone to make that happen. So, don't be afraid of the weight rack at the gym. Pick up HEAVY weights & show off a bit. :)


A few cardio suggestions...

*DVD's (TURBO JAM & TURBO FIRE are AWESOME & my top picks)
*Group exercise classes at your gym
*Hit the trails (walking, running, biking, blading)
*Cardio equipment
*Swimming

There really is something for everyone. Just get out there and try something...find what you enjoy & then make a plan to do something 6 days a week (if you're looking to lose weight).


Weight training suggestions...
*Seek out a personal trainer. Even if only for a few sessions.
*DVD's~~There are many strength training DVD's out there as well. (P90X & ChaLEAN Extreme)

**If you are new to lifting weights and can't get to a trainer. You need to watch someone show you proper form. Without form you have nothing...but possibly an injury.
