Fitness tips for the fourth

Happy 4th of July

It’s going to be a beautiful weekend and I know most of us will be celebrating with friends and family.

Before we have a quick review of holiday fitness tips.........

Please honor our country and our troops. Whether you are in favor of the military or not, our Freedom does NOT come free.





Here is your fitness review for keeping on track: 

1) Get in a workout in the morning before a party or BBQ gathering to get your metabolism firing. – see below for a quick workout.

2) Don’t skip meals early in preparation of saving calories for later – this usually leads to overeating and storing ALL the calories you eat later.

3) Be aware of how much you are eating – grazing adds calories fast. One plate at meal time and be done.

4) Enjoy your meals – choose the foods you really want to eat, enjoy them, and skip the ones that you are eating just because they are there.

Be well – remember the men and women of our armed services.

Quick Family Workout Suggestion: 


Here is your quick workout for the weekend –get your family involved too

Make a quick intense circuit – 20 seconds high intensity and 10 seconds rest (only 10)
1-squats – drive from your heels
2-jumping jacks or cardio equivalent (weighted is extra credit)
3-active plank (shifting weight back or side, lifting arms, circles or swings etc)
4-skull crushers/dips (hands on chair feet on floor, lower body down to floor and push back up)
