Tips to run a successful business

Hurt Foot/Let Workout

/in , /by

Ok, first of all, if you don’t have access to battle ropes, replacing that with kettlebell swings or even just 20 tricep dips off of a bench, you’ll still get your heart rate up if you go from one thing to the next.

The pull-ups can be resistance-band-assisted of course

This is meant to be for CARDIO purposes for someone that can’t run, jump, squat with full body weight on both legs/feet. I had to do workouts like this for 6 months when I pulled my hamstring & now my son is having to do these.

But of course NO single workout will work for EVERY injury, so this is just something to tweak.

Do what YOU have been cleared by a Dr to do!

Be sure to warm up first & cool down and stretch afterwards.

Structure or Intuition?

/in , /by

What’s your preference?
Structure & guidelines ..or being intuitive ?

You’ve heard of intuitive eating? Well I do intuitive exercising. In other words, each day my workout is dependent on what I feel I need ..but also taking into consideration what I *want* to do, what makes me feel accomplished or happy, my time constraints that day, and my goals – which are not all just physical or aesthetic.

This does NOT work for everyone (just like intuitive eating doesn’t work for everyone. No one particular way of eating works for everyone). In fact, women I help daily actually really THRIVE on having structure- a calendar to follow, with workouts & food guidelines laid out. No need for analyzing & decisions, & they get amazing results just the same . It’s a matter of personal preference (…but experience & knowledge is a key factor because not everyone knows how to design, or how to perform, their own effective workouts). So I ask again..

What’s YOUR preference ?

Socks … show … or no-show… ??

Socks … show … or no-show… ??

I’m REALLY NOT picky about certain things but for some reason SUPER DUPER picky about no-show socks. I don’t like them to show.. AT ALL.. I’m pretty sure that’s why “no show” was created. But all the socks labeled “no show” DO show on me, or they fall down.

The pair on the left is a “boys no-show” that Target used to sell & I bought them for my son & discovered they were PERFECT for ME..but they discontinued them years ago. I still have a few & I treat them like expensive jewelry

One time Chalene & Bret’s dog ate one & then threw it up. They threw the sock away & I was like “oh no no noit’s fine!”

I’ve tried the Lululemon socks that have sticky on them ..didn’t stick for me.

Chalene once found a pair & sent them to me, but I can’t find them ..I’m sure they’re hanging out with all my hair ties & phone chargers somewhere

Busy Busy!

Busy busy today!! But I fit everything in as best I could! I have SO much more freedom-of-schedule now that I coach full time but I still struggle with time management, some days more than others. I still sometimes struggle with trying to take on too much! How about you?

Don’t Skip Strength Training!

/in , , /by

Music is back on this time.. cool??

And just a reminder, don’t skip legday or strength training in general! You quickly LOSE muscles you don’t use!

Lost muscle is what causes a slower metabolism & sagging body parts !

But most importantly, strength training leads to confidence, bone health, injury prevention, & keeps you feeling, looking & functioning at your best

It’s YOUR Business

/in , , /by

Yes, I crossfit (not competitively, *obviously*) in addition to BB programs, running, spinning, my own workouts, etc.

You do you & I’ll do me, ..right?!

Being a BB coach, doesn’t mean you only workout at home & it doesn’t mean you need to fit a certain mold. It’s YOUR business, your approach & message, your journey, your way of helping and inspiring.

If you’re curious, just ask

Intermittent Fasting

/in , , /by

Make that “did it anyway” ..Monday is complete Day 3 of trying Intermittent Fasting.

I’m trying out a 8 hour eating window. I really do NOT know if this will be something I’ll want to continue or not ..after hearing & reading some research on the health of it, I’m just going to give it a shot & see how I feel with it. If over time it makes me feel too restricted, I’ll stop. I don’t want to live my life feeling too restricted.. even if it means I’ll never have a 6-pack.

Last time I tried it, I only made it 3hrs… so 3 days is a PR
