Each year it’s the same old story,  we enter a new year and automatically set unrealistic goals that are way out of reach and that most likely will never be acheived. We all have been there, so why do we continue to do this to ourselves? Instead of making resolutions this year to lose 20 lbs, to give up on chocolate or wine, why not devote more time to simply try to be healthy and stay active? No one is perfect, so why hold yourself to that kind of standard? I have found that if I eat healthy 80% of the time and find a workout program that I actually enjoy, that I am a million times more successful than when I am depriving my body of the food it wants/needs and am doing boring workouts that I hate. Getting in shape isn’t easy and it takes hard work and dedication to get the results that you want but when you find a program that you want to do, you will soon be hooked.

I teamed up with Reebok Ambassador and Crossfit Coach/Regional Competitor, Andrea Ferry, to create some bad ass workouts that we can all do ANYWHERE we go, no excuses. So that we don’t have to feel guilty for gorging on Mom’s famous pecan pie on Christmas day. Our HIT (High Intensity Training) for Her sweat sesh is a great bodyweight workout to get your whole body moving from the legs to abs to shoulders. This workout was designed to get your heart rate up so that you can burn fat and tone your muscles in the shortest amount of time possible. If any of these exercises are too intense, just scale the number of repetitions or the rounds to find something that works well for you. The more you do these type of workouts, the easier they will become for you to get through. So be patient and stick with it and we promise you will see the results you are […]
