• Done three times a week, this barbell-based rapid weight loss and accelerated strength-training program reshapes a person's entire body extremely fast!
  Why is LES MILLS PUMP so effective?
  
  • It's all about THE REP EFFECTTM. Unlike traditional strength workouts, which feature heavy weights that bulk people up, this program features light-to- moderate weights used at a higher rate of repetition.
    
  • The constantly changing tempo, body position, and speed of THE REP EFFECT breaks down more fat reserves, targets more muscle fibers, and burns more calories than traditional weight training.
    What are the workouts like?
    

• Muscles reach fatigue by performing 70-100 repetitions per body part. That's
about 4 times more reps than one would typically perform in a standard gym workout.
Do people really have to work out only 3 times a week? If they want, can they work out on other days too?
• We encourage anyone to engage in non-resistance training workouts (such as cardio or cross-training) on days that they're not doing LES MILLS PUMP.
Who should do this program?
• People of all ages and fitness levels
• Men and women who want to lose weight and get fit • People who want leaner, stronger muscles
• Those new to working out

• Women who are afraid of getting bulky from lifting weights
  
• Fans of BODYPUMP gym classes who like to work out at home
  
• People who want to try something new ® ®
  
• People who do other Beachbody programs, such as: P90X , RevAbs ,
  TurboFire®, 10-Minute Trainer®, and INSANITY®
  
• Weightlifters who want to improve muscular endurance 

Slim in 6 (low impact for beginners)
• Slim in 6 is an in-home workout program that helps you melt away fat and sculpt a leaner, sexier body in just 6 weeks.
• Because the moves are so easy to follow, Slim in 6 can work for just about anyone, even people who’ve never exercised regularly.

Hip Hop Abs (low impact for beginners)

What is it?
Hip Hop Abs® is a 30-day, dance-based in-home fitness program designed to help you burn fat and sculpt your abs without doing crunches or sit-ups. It’s good for beginners as well as experienced exercisers.
Fitness trainer and professional dancer Shaun T teaches his easy-to-follow moves step by step, so you can do it even if you think you can’t dance.
If you’re new to working out, you won’t need to buy any extra equipment. All you need is a DVD player and room to move.
Why is it effective?
Hip Hop Abs uses cardio to burn calories, with special focus on toning your abs. Shaun’s “Tilt, Tuck & Tighten” technique helps you work your abs the whole time you’re dancing, so every move has the impact of a crunch or sit-up without getting on the floor.
Shaun shows you how to activate your upper abs, lower abs, and obliques all at the same time you’re burning fat. And the program has multiple workouts, so you’ll never get bored.

10 TIPS For Staying Fit Over the Holidays!

How often are we doing so well and then these holidays come around and its like we totally lose site of our goals?!? I know I've been there, done that! But it does not have to be that way!  If we can manage to keep that motivation and momentum going, and stay away from those temptations, there is NO reason we have to fall backwards during the holidays!
HOW are we going to stay away from the temptations?! Yea, I know its almost impossible, but there is something called "walking away", and saying "no thank you".... It will go a long way for you!!!
So if your at a party of family gathering and you do not want to be rude, think of it as asking them to support you and your journey! You are not being rude, but if they don't support you, I would say thats not very nice either ;)-    So ask your family for support and understanding that your goals are very important and you are on a mission to reach them!!

Some other tips to stay on track over the holidays:

1. Keep a motivational picture with you AT ALL TIMES- Whether its on your phone, in your pocket, it doesnt matter, as long as you can pull it out when your feeling weak and want to give in!

2. Prep ahead of time- If you do your weekly meal prep, there is NO reason for excuses that you do not have healthy food around or you have to go for fast food because you were in a rush and didn't have time to cook something!

3. Bring a Healthy Dish- Instead of making those cheesy potatoes, dish with heavy cream sauces, or dessert loaded with sugar, take the healthy alternative.... Cauliflower potatoes, Homemade Guacamole Dip, Clean Eating Stuffed Mushrooms, Roasted Asparagus and Ham Wrap, or some yummy clean desserts like Black Bean Brownies, or Shakeology No bake Cookies! 

4. Water water water- Take water wherever you go! I always pack extra and keep it in my car just in case!!

5. Limit your alcohol intake- I know sometimes people like to get a little crazy on the holidays, but if you have a goal, you gotta stick to it!! Portion control EVEN your liquid intake! For me, if Im drinking alcohol, I go with Vodka and water with a lemon! Less calories, less bloating, Keeps you more on track!

6. Have an accountability partner- Share your goals with a family or friend and ask them to hold you accountable.  The more accountability, the better off you are!

7. Do not go to a party or gathering hungry- If you fill yourself up with dense nutrients before hand, you are more likely not to binge on food when you are there.  One thing I do is have my health shake SHAKEOLOGY so I am full and not craving anything.  

8.  Get your workout in early- If you do your workout first thing in the morning, you are not only going to have a ton of energy for the day, but you are setting yourself up for success and you will feel a sense of accomplishment early in the day! You will have NO EXCUSES about not having time to get in your workout if you do it right when you wake up before you do anything else!

9. STAY POSITIVE- The more positive talk you can do for yourself, the more successful you will be! Talk to yourself out loud... I know it may sound silly, but if you tell yourself "I WILL DO THIS".... "I WILL CONQUER THE DAY"... you will make it happen! You do what you tell yourself you will! PS. I start this right when I wake up! :)

10. Portion Control- I know I've said it, but I need to say it again... Portion control is very important! Even if you are eating whatever food is at your gathering, if you portion control, you will not fall back as far as you would if you put everything in your mouth you saw! If you give yourself a little taste of what that temptation is, remember the second bite is always the best and after that, its not needed!!

This holiday season is about staying healthy and enjoying the people around you! Food is not comfort, family and friends are! 
The average person gains approximately 5-10 pounds over the holidays... 
DO NOT let yourself fall into that percentage! This doe NOT have to be you!

Roasted Asparagus and Ham Wrap

I know the holidays get tough and we try to find a healthy way to stay on track, but also cook so the family is not starving right?! Many people love ham, but fall short of the veggie part!! 
Have you ever thought of putting them together so its a WIN-WIN for everyone!?! 

ROASTED ASPARAGUS AND HAM WRAP

Ingredients:
1 lb. thick asparagus spears
1 lb. smoked lean ham (I get the low sodium and slice thin)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400F. Spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray (EVOO spray or PAM)

Trim the wood ends of asparagus spears, making all pieces the same size. Roll a piece of ham around each piece of asparagus, securing with a toothpick inserted horizontally so the piece of asparagus will lay flat on the baking sheet. Lay asparagus on the sprayed baking sheet and spread out so they are not touching. 

Roast asparagus for 10 minutes on the first side, or until the ham is lightly browned. Turn asparagus pieces over and roast 6 minutes more on the second side, until asparagus is barely tender-crisp and ham is lightly browned on both sides.

Enjoy and serve as an appetizer or side dish with your dinner!

*If you are using this recipe with the 21 DAY FIX, this would count as a green and red container

*If you are using this for weight watcher recipe (4 pieces) = 3 points

*If you are using the INSANITY MAX 30, you are using a protein and complex carb (veggie).

Exclusive Elite Training for New Fitness Coaches- Leaders in the Making

As a nurse, mommy of 2 boys, wife, and health and fitness coach, I can say my plate is definitely full, but it is a good full!! I feel like I am reaching my goals in life, enjoying my family, and since I started my coaching journey and working from home, I've been able to spend more time with my kids and haven't missed any events, holidays, or special moments with them! As a nurse or someone who works swing shift, weekends, every other holiday, you would know how difficult it is to have a sleep schedule, let alone try to have a good routine with your family and attend all your children's activities! For the first time in my life, I finally am able to say I work from home and make my own schedule without needing to request off or call off when something comes up! 

HOW DID I GET TO THIS SPOT IN MY LIFE?
I started my fitness journey as a challenger in a support group/challenge group that was 90 days long and used the home fitness program INSANITY and incorporated Beachbody's health shake meal replacement SHAKEOLOGY along with clean eating into my new regimen.  I was ready to reach my health and fitness goals and between having the support, motivation, and accountability with tips, recipes, and the program, I was reaching goals I never thought I could both physically and mentally!  For the first time, even after 2 kids, I was ok to look in the mirror and did not have to try on 10 outfits before finding one I was comfortable in.

Before I knew it, I was confident, experienced with nutrition and how to eat clean (I've also had nutrition classes and was a personal trainer at one time), and felt I could pay it forward to others who struggled with their weight or wanted to lose those last 10 pounds that were't budging.  I felt the challenge groups were so beneficial to my success and it was time for me to continue my own journey, but also start helping others on their journey as well!

1 YEAR LATER INTO MY BEACH BODY CAREER:
As I continued my fitness journey and helping others in ending the trend of obesity, I was also working part time as a nurse.  I realized my passion was bigger than what I imagined it would be.. As I was able to help change lives, I found myself more motivated to continue helping more and more people! At the same time, I was earning financial freedom for my family! My 16,000$ credit card was paid off, my Christmas for my family was paid for, and I was able to go part time as a nurse!
I reached 5 star (high rank in the company) and became ELITE qualified for 2013 (top 1% of the company).

2 YRS LATER and I took my husband on a cruise (totally paid in full),  a trip to Vegas for our biggest training of the year, and a trip to Scottsdale, AZ  for leadership which only 200 coaches out of over 200,000 attended all again PAID IN FULL! I have grown an amazing team of leaders who are so passionate and driven and I love that I can say they are like my extended family! 
As I just reached my 2 year mark this month, I also have been able to pay off my car, finish our basement, but also quit my nursing job all together! I have helped enough people both physically and financially that I have made 6 Figure Income a year just in over a year of building my new career as a Beachbody Coach and Entrepreneur.  
I also have reached a huge goal of becoming an NPC figure competitor! This is just extra motivation to keep me on track with my fitness goals, but be experienced to help others in different ways according to their goals and level of fitness!

I never thought in a million years would I be able to own my own business, let alone have a successful business to where I can work from home and enjoy waking up every day loving what I do and being excited to work!

YOUR TURN: 
Now I am ready to pay it forward more! I want to help more people find physical and financial success! 

What qualities am I looking for in a coach on my team?
I am looking for people who are passionate about health and fitness, maybe still on their own fitness journey (you do not have to be at your goal weight, although you can be), love helping people, compassionate, motivating, hard working, dedicated, committed, friendly, fun, outgoing,  and honest! 

You do NOT have to.....
Be at your fitness goals, have background in health and fitness, be experienced with social media.  You do not have to be a personal trainer or nutritionist (although you can be), you do not have to work full time to be successful in this business!

Starting December 8th, my success partners and I are recruiting 30 goal diggers and starting an Elite Training called #Emerging Leaders in the making, 60 Days to Leadership! This program is for anyone who is willing to commit to learning the in's and out's of what Beachbody and growing a successful business is all about.  We will provide you with tips, tools, and skills to utilize and become the CEO of your own business.  We have weekly calls and you will hear from not only corporate, but also the top coaches of the entire company! If you want to reach high goals, this is where you will find it... Trainings from top coaches, support, and accountability to keep you right on track of your goals!

21 DAY FIX RESULTS ARE IN!!!

What is better than seeing real results of real people on their weight loss journey getting amazing results by living a healthy lifestyle?! This is not dieting, starving yourself.... its pure hard work, dedication, clean eating, and exercise!! 

Krystal is one of my challengers who started her journey and decided to commit to the 21 DAY FIX and drinking SHAKEOLOGY once daily in place of one meal and incorporating clean eating into her regimen.  

Krystal's Story:

My name is Krystal, I am a 30 year old wife, mother of 1, and full time nurse. I had previously turned down the opportunity to try shakeology as well as challenge groups out of fear, lack of confidence, and thinking it was expensive. I thought "why try something else that won't work" and "I'm not paying for that when all I need to do is just exercise on my own".  After years of NO results and unable to stick with a healthy diet I joined a challenge group and bought my first challenge pack, the 21 Day Fix and shakeology. I soon realized that losing weight and becoming fit was not about trying to eat as little as possible for a while and exercise a few times but a total life style change.  With the 21 day fix I wasn't eating tiny bits of tasteless foods, I was eating full fulfilling healthy nutrient worthy meals. At first I stuck with the same few meals but once I figured out clean eating and it became part of my lifestyle I soon found it easy to come up with new delicious recipes. As far as including shakeology in my everyday meal plans, I was actually spending less than I was before!  My workouts at first were a little difficult to keep up with, but I pushed at my own pace.  I made goals to do one more squat or one more push up the next day. I started seeing results almost immediately, not because "it works" or "it's a good diet" but because I was actively pursuing a goal to get fit, NOT dieting, and being held accountable through the challenge group.  I would think "I could give up on this set with 10 seconds left and rest a little longer before the next exercise but then I'll have to post my workout as 3 or 4 for the day" so it kept me motivated to keep pushing through.  My daughter, my WHY, started wanting to exercise with me, I found myself being able to run around with her more, go for little bike rides without dreading how I'd feel or how tired I would be.  I noticed in the first couple of weeks a change in my mood, I was sleeping better, I had more energy, I felt great!  I couldn't believe the difference in myself just from changing how I eat and consistently exercising!  I started to look forward to my workouts, the sweat,the burn, I knew results were happening so it really kept me motivated.  I could feel myself getting stronger as the workouts were easier to keep up with everyday.  I started to realize that eating wasn't about just filling my belly, but fueling my body.  I noticed how I felt content, full and energized after clean meals rather thank the tired, lazy, bloated feeling of fast food or junk food like I was eating before. In the first 21 days i had lost 20 pounds and I was exstatic!  I couldnt believe how easy it had become to stick with this lifestyle.  At times, I would get some craving for chips or another junk food, chips was my go to snack before. I've learned to replace those healthy snacks with snacks that are comforting but still healthy.  One of my newest favorites, which surprised me, is hummus!  My husband even noticed how I was sticking with the meal plans and exercising, he said "I've never seen you stick with anything like you are with this."  I now find myself subconsciously making healthier decisions when it comes to foods outside of my meal plan, consistently including shakeology everyday, and portioning appropriately instead of just filling up a plate and eating until it's and l gone. I've learned a lot in the first 60 days of my fitness journey about eating to fuel your body, exercising to gain energy.  I've only just started and already have a great base for clean eating habbits and fitness as I continue my journey.

What is the 21 DAY FIX?

The 21 Day Fix is one of my favorite programs! What I love so much is you work your ENTIRE body between the 14 workouts! You get your cardio, cardio with weights, upper focus, lower focus, plyos, yoga, pilates, and more! If you like a variety of workouts, this is perfect!! 

-21 DAY FIX nutrition plan- The 21 day fix is focused on portion control.  Nutrition is most people's issue reaching their weight loss goals, so having this strict nutrition guide will help you reach your ultimate goal! 

With this program, you even get containers for your food to portion out. Each container is color coded based on the food group and sized according to what the portion is.  When you get your program, the guide will help you figure out how many of each container you need based on your caloric intake.

Why SHAKEOLOGY?

Shakeology is not a protein shake, or a weight loss shake.  What is so different about Shakeology than other shakes is the nutrition you get.  

-Over 70 Natural ingredients that gives you your daily dose of dense nutrition.  

-You get your super foods, amino acids, digestive enzymes, anti oxidants, pre and pro-biotics and more!

What do these nutrients to for you?

-Help with muscle tissue healing and regrowth, improve digestion, reduce cravings, increase energy, improve immune system, and improve heart health!

Is Shakeology an entire meal?

Shakeology is an entire meal replacement that is used in place of any meal you prefer (I use a meal that I have difficulty getting in or that I tend to eat poorly with).

How do you make Shakeology?

There are tons of recipes you can make with Shakeology, depending on what you are in the mood for!  I blend my shake in a blender with ice, almond milk or water, Shakeology and other additives such as peanut butter or fresh fruits!

Why add Shakeology into your regimen?
Nutrition is 80% of your results.  This basically means if you workout and eat poorly, you will find yourself not getting to your goal.  It is extremely important to eat healthy if you are trying to have  healthy lifestyle and reach your goal body.
My personal experience, I have tried many protein shakes, weight loss shakes, but I have been able to stick with Shakeology because it is not comparable to any other I have used.  As I said, its a health shake, and Im finally getting the nutrients and natural ingredients I need to help maintain that healthy lifestyle.  Its not about the calories, the carbs, protein, its about getting the proper nutrition!
When you fuel your body with the right foods, it wants more... it gets you craving more healthy foods.
Your taste buds change according to what you feed it, and this was the first step for getting my body exactly what it needs in an easy convenient way!

Baked Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal

Baked Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal

I love oatmeal, but sometimes its nice to switch up how you make it to change it up a little! I decided to bake it and add some apples, cinnamon and vanilla to it and it tasted amazing!! The kids inhaled it too, so this is a perfect recipe to use that  you can make to have a few days worth instead of cooking every day!!

Ingredients: (4 servings)

• 2 cups uncooked quick oats
• 1 cup almond milk
• 1 cup water
• 2 apples cut into bite size pieces
• 2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Pam

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Mix all ingredients in a bowl and put into a round baking pan sprayed with Pam.

Cook for 40 min uncovered. 

Enjoy!

I am using this recipe while I am doing the BODY BEAST program.  

I also have used this recipe for the 21 day fix and use a yellow and purple container. I do use only water with the recipe for 21 day fix since milk counts as a yellow container.

It is a program that most people look at and think its a "man's workout", but since I am in love with weight training and love having definition and muscles, I am taking on the challenge!! I want to show people that you do NOT have to only go to the gym and spend money on memberships and gas money going back and forth to reach your goals and train for a figure competition! So Day 1 consisted of chest and tris!

What I love about this program is you are working out and toning your entire body... You hit every muscle group and you have a specific schedule to follow depending on if you are going for toning and losing fat or bulking and building muscle!  I am going for the toning and losing fat of course! :)

My nutrition includes drinking SHAKEOLOGY daily in place of a meal, along with lots of lean proteins, complex carbs (green veggies), healthy carbs and healthy fats.  

One of the meals I had were CHOCOLATE PB PROTEIN PANCAKES, which is a recipe I got from one of my success partners! I am NOT a fan of cottage cheese, and although that is included in this recipe, it actually taste amazing!!! Its crazy what you can mix together and come up with!! :) 

I am now on week 2 and will keep you all posted on my Body Beast journey!!
