Get Fit for Summer

Summer is just around the corner! Tomorrow is June 1st, that means you have a good month to get in great shape for your bikini, shorts and tank tops. What can you do in a month to get you ready for bikini season? Here are some tips on getting ready for your bikini without going crazy or starving yourself: Make a plan! Write down your goals and map out each week. Empty your cupboards. Get rid of sugary snacks and tempting chocolate. You only have a month! Pull out the clothes you want to wear. There is your motivation! Put them on and see how they fit; imagine how they will fit in a month. Log your food. I love food logs/journals or whatever you want to call them. Writing down what and how much you eat can make a huge difference. If you're not motivated to do any of those things, give me a call or email! I will be happy to set up a free consultation with you to come up with a four week plan we can do together, in the gym, park, or your home. Email us today!

Barefoot running, have you tried it lately? I remember running around barefoot as a kid; free as the wind, racing around, enjoying myself; that is, until I stepped on something sharp or got a splinter! These days, however, barefoot running is seen in more than just toddler, it's a growing fad in traditional runners; and even is seen in marathon running!
