It seems amazing to me that we are on our 8th week of 22 Minute Hard Corps. This is it folks (except for those of us who are crazy enough to do the Hell Week at the very end, which I just might be crazy enough to try it.) I must say I have really, really, really enjoyed doing this program. I thought that I would get tired of doing the same 4 cardio, 4 resistance, and 3 core workouts (I have the deluxe edition and have the special ops added. The regular program has 3 cardio, 3 resistance, and 2 core workouts). But I will say when I start doing the workout I'm ready to kick some butt.
As always the hardest part of any program for me is the stay the path with my eating. If I'm really strict with what I will allow in my diet I tend to do pretty well but then hormones kick in and I find myself eating anything with sugar in it. And once I get sugar it's a very quick downward spiral.
But what's been impressive with this program is that I'm still seeing good results even though my diet has been only about 60%. Now if I could get that to about 90% I think I'd be a mean lean fighting machine.
So we will see what the final results are on Sunday when I weigh, measure, and do my PT test. Can't wait to share with you guys.
Yes, you see it that is one of my big failures on Friday night but unfortunately it is not the only one.
Friday morning starts off like most. I get up and I get ready for work. I packed some workout gear because I had a large gap in the middle of my day of no clients so I was hoping to get a workout in during that time. I head off to work and have a great drive in with no traffic, I love when it is a nice easy drive in with no added stress. After a few hours I have the 3 hour break so my workout gear comes out and take a stroll down to the waterfront. It was a little cool and breezy but I knew once I actually got moving I would warm up just fine.
There is this new App on my iphone by Beachbody, BOD, where I can stream my workouts through my phone on the app. Awesome! I pull out my phone and get started on Resistance 3. I didn't have any weights with me but that's okay I still got in a good workout.
After a nice cool down I head back to work and finish my day. That's when I realize that my hubby will be out and won't be cooking dinner for me... boooo. I think to myself that's okay you can just eat something light and healthy when you get home. UH OH. Nope, I probably should have grabbed something in Georgetown and staved off the hunger that was about to hit and dominant the rest of my evening.
I get in the car and start my drive home. About 30 minutes into the drive I am hungry, I suddenly need food like now. So, I do the smartest thing I can think off and pull over and get myself some delicious Taco Bell... AHHHH! After 2 weeks of eating good and having no sugar I completely ruin everything. LOL and to top it off I'm not even done yet. I eat my crunchwrap in the parking lot then continue my drive home. About 10 minutes later I find myself in front of a dunkin donuts. Ummm how did I get here. Three sprinkled donuts later and now I feel ill.
Yep that's it. When I stumble I totally crash and fall. But the good thing is I dusted myself off and I am right back on track. I will not let one bad evening define my weekend. I will not let one bad evening set the tone for the upcoming week. I will not let one bad evening derail me from all the hard work that I've put in. I will put it behind me and make healthier smarter choices. I will not beat myself up for said evening. (side note.. my body will though for a few days...lol stomach was not to happy about the choices). Onwards and upwards!
It's primary voting day in Maryland and Dane and I both had time this morning to go in and get it done. But let's start from the beginning of the morning. After spending a wonderful evening with my in-laws (I have great in-laws, who I really enjoying hanging out with! I'm lucky I know) I went to bed and slept like a rock. I woke up this morning to my furbabies wanting to be fed. So, I got up and fed my babies and made coffee and did the dishes and posted on facebook for my current Challenge Group. Then it's time to actually get moving. I'm on week 7 of the 22 Minute Hard Corps program by Beachbody. Today it was Cardio 1 and Core 2. I busted through them (man there are a lot of burpees in cardio 1). As I was stretching at the end Dane said he had time to go vote. I thought well let's do it so we don't have to tonight when I get home for work. So I threw on my Shakeology shirt and out the door we went.
We got to our voting station and checked in and as I was being led to my voting booth the lady leading me starts talking about T25, one of the Beachbody workout programs. She mentions she has a tough time following through on doing the program and I said well you need support and I run challenge groups that offer support and accountability. And she was very interested so I told her after I was done voting I would give her my email address and she could contact me and we would go from there. So, thank you Shakeology top for opening up the conversation.
If you need support, accountability, friends doing the same thing you are doing, you should really consider joining one of my challenge groups. They run for 21 days and really help keep people on track with both their exercise and diet. And it great getting to connect with others with similar goals.

Yesterday I got a little over ambitious with a new pair of flats that I knew needed to break in before wearing them for a long day at work. I saw these flats because my client had them on and they are just adorable. I asked her if they were comfy and she said that after the initial break in they are very comfortable but be prepared to break them in first. So I bought them and wore them for a few hours twice at work and thought that should do it they are broke in now. NOPE not at all. I wore them yesterday and had to walk about 3 1/2 blocks from where I parked my car and by the end of the walk I wanted to scream. I had several blisters on my feet. My poor toes felt like they were bleeding. I got into work and tried to put some band-aids on my poor feet but it felt awful. That's when one of my co-workers said I should just wear the slippers that we use for clients. Yes! I slide those puppies on and proceeded to wear them the rest of the day much to my embarrassment but sometimes being a little embarrassed is better then not being able to walk at all or think straight because of the pain you are in.
my not so pretty toes
So, that brings us to today. Even though my feet are blistered and sore I was not going to use that as an excuse to not workout. What did I do? I worked out barefoot today. Today was resistance 2 and there really isn't a lot of jumping so this was a good day to go barefoot. And I think it can be good to go without shoes because it will help you build up all the muscles in your feet that support you. No Excuses! You will do it if you put your mind to it. And I put my mind to it today!
I only have 2 1/2 weeks left of what I would consider my favorite program from Beachbody. 22 Minute Hard Corp is my kind of program- fast paced, active, short duration but fat blast burning. Running a very close 2nd is 21 Day Fix and who knows maybe when I do that program next time it'll be my favorite again! Here's a little run down of how I physically and mentally feel on week 6.
Physically I still feel like this program challenges me. I don't get as sore after doing the workout as I did on week 1 or even week 2 so I know that my body is somewhat getting use to it. Once I start the workout I really try to push myself because it is such a short workout and when I finish I always am glad that I did. The core workout that is combined with the cardio day is hard. I think I will always struggle with Core 2 because of the amount of reps that we do but I try my best and take breaks as needed. I would say what's hardest for my physically is that there isn't that much stretching and you need to do that on your own. I haven't been the best at doing it and have noticed that I am getting tighter. So having said that I will try to stretch more these last 2 1/2 weeks.
Mentally, I would say that because of the shorter workouts I can pretty much tell myself to get up and get them done. Sometimes I wish there were more variety but that is all in my head because once I push play I enjoy each workout and try my hardest. What has also been hard mentally is I haven't seen a big difference on the scale but that's why it is so important to take measurements. They don't lie. So at the 4 week mark when I retook measurements and had lost over 4 inches total that really put things into perspective for me. I also had to take a step back from food mentally. I had to give myself some really strict rules to follow so that I don't cheat. I did this a little over a week ago and have done really well. So no sugar for me!!
So, in conclusion. I really really like this program. It's physically demanding but short and mentally not super tough for me. I'm seeing results overall and I'm happy. I've only missed 4 workouts total and some of those have been on days that I've already ridden Bella and had personal training so I didn't feel the need to workout again.
If you are looking for a great workout please ask me about 22 Minute Hard Corps!
Everyone should have a day like I did today where it just gets better and better and you kind of enjoy every minute.
Let's start from the beginning. Last night after stopping by the bakery again and ordering something that my body can't even digest I decided that it was time to get my act in gear. I had heard a lot about Whole 30 and I knew I needed to do something like that. I need rules. I need guide lines. I need you to tell me exactly what to do and what not to do. So after doing a little online research I decided that Whole 30 totally works with 22 Minute Hard Corps. It's pretty similar just more restrictive. And since I only have 3 1/2 weeks left on the program I thought it would be best to really try to stay with the diet till the end for the best results. I know so far my results have been good but imagine if I had been eating correctly the last 4 weeks I think my results so far would have been amazing.
So back to this morning. I start with my daily cup of coffee and I normally have to have sweetened creamer in it but not this morning. I did a little almond milk and cinnamon. Definitely started the day on the right foot. Then I have a quick appointment at the Dr. for my face/acne and I'm straight to the grocery store after that. Because now I need some food for the week since I'm doing Whole 30. I bought plenty of greens and some green peppers, and tomatoes, and cucumbers, and avocados, and a cartoon of eggs to hard boil. Then I bought some fruit for the week. I think I'm ready to go.
I get home and make some salads for the week. Prep is so important. It's really hard to stay on track if you don't have anything on hand to grab that's good for you. After that its time for the barn. I love my life! I go to the barn and spend a large amount of time just grooming Bella, I love grooming her. I love using tons of different brushes and helping her hair shed out properly. I like clean horses! Then I pop on Bella and have very nice warm-up on her. Today Judy and I decided to switch horses half way through the ride and I was excited to sit on her boy Solo. It's really good to sit on other horses cause each one is different and it helps you build your tool kit up even more. Solo is quite different then my girl Bella. He's lankier, he's loftier, he's lighter, he's more squiggly (that's age he's still very young). But getting on him was so different. I was at a lost on what to do and I will say it took quite a while for me to figure out how to ride him but I think that by the end I was starting to get him a little and he was understanding me a little. Now during my ride on him I stopped and watched Judy on Bella. Wow! My horse is gorgeous. Judy rides her beautifully and the picture was quite lovely. Next time I'll try to get a video so you can see what I'm talking about.
After a great time at the barn it was time to head to personal training (had a quick salad in between) and I really like my current workout there. I enjoy my time with my personal trainer Dona, she is just a wonderful person. So, I have a good workout and head to Mom's Organic Market to pick up a gift certificate for the winner of my last challenge group and while there I find some very yummy delicious snacks that are gluten free, non- gmo, and just plain delicious.
You must try these they are just sooo good. Then I head home where I get a call from my hubby Dane that he is on his way home. I asked him if he wanted to work out with me and then go fly the drone. He says yes to both. Woohoo! This day just gets better and better.
So, Dane gets home and we do Resistance 3 from the 22 Minute Hard Corps program.
It's pretty tough and but we pushed through and had a great time working out together. Then we head out to the park to fly the drone and we take Zoskia. We had a great time flying and video taping Kia running around having a great time. I really enjoy seeing Dane happy and he really likes his drone so its great getting to go out with him and fly it.
What's also fantastic is Dane is a fantastic cook. He cooks dinner almost every night and I am so lucky. Here was our dinner tonight.
And that's about it. I think the day is done. It was a good good day and I hope everyone get to have days like this.
Wow I can't believe that we have already done 4 weeks of the 22 Minute Hard Corp program. Half way through and the results are starting to show. Super excited to share with you guys. First lets go over my PT results. Push-ups 1 minute Week 1 -25
Week 4- 41
I would say that there is improvement! Okay now on to the weight and measurements. Like I've said in some of my previous post my eating hasn't been 100% great, more like 60% good and 30% okay and 10% not so good. But even with not being completely on par with my eating I still saw some good results. Starting weight was 152 after 4 weeks 148. I'll take it. And I've lost a little over 4 inches over all. Yay! While I didn't feel like I was seeing a ton of results at first it really is starting to make a difference. Four more weeks to go to finish the program and I can't wait to see where I end up!
When Thursday afternoon rolls around I'm normally MIA from my blog and facebook. That's because I'm at work at the spa and I'm busy (which is great) but I don't have time to get online and get things done. I started to feel guilty about this last night. I really wanted to write a post for this blog but I was just plain ole exhausted. So I put my laptop down and went to bed. So here I am this morning ready to get things done!
I want to share how amazing it is to see other people on their own journey to be fitter and healthier. No names mentioned but just my own personal take away. Yesterday, I had a client who has joined my challenge groups and is doing the 21 Day Fix, she is in maintenance mode now so she is only working out 3 days a week and following the eating guide 5 days of the week. But Wow she looks amazing and she said she feels great both inside and out, both physically and mentally. She tried on a skirt the other day and purchased it in a size that she has never been in her adult life, she is the fittest and smallest she has ever been! That's AWESOME!
Then I have one of my challengers who inspires me everyday. She is in her 50's and she is killing it. She started off with the 21 Day Fix program and when she started in December she couldn't do one full push-up. She did 15 push-ups the other day. Say What?? That's AMAZING! She has lost 35lbs total and 12 inches overall. And now she is doing the 22 Minute Hard Corp with my test group. And she is powering through this tough program. I am beyond proud of her but also so inspired.
So yesterday after I got off of work I just wanted to sit on the couch and watch tv, but because of ladies like these two I got home changed into my workout gear and pushed play on my Cardio 1 and Core 1 for 22 Minute Hard Corp. And I felt great afterwards physically, then I was able to sit on the couch and watch tv with my hubby. It was a good night.
If you are looking for support and accountability please fill out the form below and we'll get you set on the right path for your own personal journey.
Yesterday I hand to make a tough decision not to do my workout which was Resistance 1 from the 22 Minute Hard Corp program. We are on week 4 of this program and I am loving it but sometimes you need to listen to your body.
Wednesday is one of my days off work and I normally pack it with all the things that I love. I get to ride Bella and have my personal training. Since, I started this program I have been doing the prescribed workout and riding Bella and doing my personal training. I will say that I'm tired at the end of the day but it hasn't been bad. Well, yesterday I woke up and needed to get some work done for Beachbody so I just didn't get my workout in before I needed to get ready to go to the barn. I head down to the barn and end up having a fantastic lesson on Bella. Then I go to my personal training and have a very good workout. I also have a massage planned later that day and boy did I need it. Since, I have been working out 6 days a week along with all my other activities my body has gotten very tight and has a lot of knots. My massage therapist spends the majority of our hour working on my back and it was great. Afterwards I have a decision to make, am I going to workout after this? I decided that after getting such good work done on my back that the pluses of not working out outweighed actually working out. So, I didn't do my prescribed workout yesterday and I didn't beat myself up about it.
Now on to today where I did get my workout in and it is a new workout. Cardio 3 is Killer. Here is a little taste of the craziness that I love so much.
Monday, April 4, 2016
Started my 4th week on the 22 Minute Hard Corp program by Beachbody and got to try Resistance 3 for the first time. Can I say I loved it. So I have totally figured out what type of program I like. Fast paced, body weight or lighter weights. Doesn't take a long time to do the exercise but is pretty intense during the workout. 21 Day Fix, 21 Day Fix Extreme, and 22 Minute Hard Corp are my type of programs. I really wanted to love The Master's Hammer and Chisel but I had a very difficult time finding the motivation to do the workouts because of the type of structure. I may try it again this summer we'll see.
Some short videos of today's workout. Loved it.
If you are interested in learning more about this program or any of the Beachbody programs please fill out the form below and I'll get back with you.
Well, if you can't laugh then you don't have a sense of humor! Dane, called me down to the basement to check out what he was doing and this was the result. WHAT?? Too funny. He knows me so well, I had a very good laugh. And then I started craving some chocolate cake. LOL
Okay lets do a quick update on how I am doing with the workout program and eating. So far out of the entire 3 weeks I have missed only 1 workout (and that was yesterday). I feel strong overall and the workouts seem to be getting easier physically but a little harder mentally since I know what is coming up next. Once I push through the minor mental block I really enjoy getting the workout done. Again its only 22 or 33 minutes long so its not that bad.
Now on to the eating part. We are suppose to be doing clean eating with portion control and I would say that 65% of the time I'm doing good. I want to be able to say that for the rest of the program I will do better with 85-100% eating great! My food prep has been going well but somehow I find myself at one of the local bakery shops after work. Yummy for my tummy but not good if your trying to eat clean. Every once in a while its okay but I've been doing it more then once in awhile. Oops! Now back on track for the rest of the program.

It was great today doing my workout with my hubby. After playing with his new toy which is the "little secret" that I will be sharing with you in a post very soon, we got home and I still needed to push play and get my Cardio 2 done for my 22 Minute Hard Corp program.
Now I almost didn't do this workout tonight because I will say I was just plain ole tuckered out. I had already ridden Bella and been to personal training and been outside with Dane playing with his new toy. So when we got home it was late and I didn't feel like doing it but I told myself that if Dane said he would work out with me then I would do it. So I went upstairs and asked him and he said yes and away we went. It was actually a ton of fun working out with him and will say that I probably work out a little harder when he is with me which is really good for me. But boy am I done now. It is time for a shower and some tv and relaxation time. I think I earned it!
First I want to start the day off by saying congratulations to my very beautiful and lovely sister-in-law Allyn Rose on her wedding day. No make that Allyn Oertel. We were able to join her in this very joyous, and momentous occasion via Skype. Got to love technology. She married the very handsome Christopher Oertel in his homeland of Germany. There is future date for a wedding that we can all attend in Germany for 2017.
The wedding was on German time so we had to get up for a 5:30 AM to make it! We all "dressed up" At least the top half of everyone did. I think my little hat thingy really pulled it all together for me. It was very nice being able to see the entire ceremony. I will say it was different that what I'm use to here in the US and I think I missed a few things in translation, but it was lovely and Ally looked so happy that I couldn't help but smile through the whole thing. So again congrats to the Bride and Groom.
Now I wasn't quite ready to get up and at it after the wedding so I wiped off my lipstick and went back to sleep for another hour or so. The furbabies really don't let me sleep past 7:30 so I was up and feeding everyone and getting ready for my day. I am on week 3 of the 22 Minute Hard Corp program and today it was Resistance 1. So I made myself an energize drink from the Beachbody Performance Line and pushed play and got it done. It always feels great afterwards. There are times when I just don't want to do it. But every time I make myself push play and push through a workout I feel so much better. And I think it sets the tone for the rest of the day.
After having a good workout I took the puppies outside for a little playtime. I am watching my brother's dog for the week and she and my Kia have really bonded and love playing and chasing one another. Hmmm is it time for another dog?! Then it was off to work for the day at the Spa. I love my job and saw some new clients and some clients that have been seeing me for years and had a great time. So in closing the day started off with a bang and just kept on going!
Don't forget to make your calendars for our upoming events. You have a few options. A free 6 day clean eating challenge group, a 21 day Challenge group and a sneak peak into what being a Beachbody Coach is all about and if it is right for you. If you are interested in any of these things please fill out the form below. We would love to have you join any of the above. Take your future into your own hands and be proactive.
This morning I posted about my over indulgence yesterday from Easter causing some sluggishness. And I wasn't sure if I was going to just lay in bed and enjoy a slow start to the day or get up and get it done. If the photo above is any indication then you know that I got up and got moving. I decided this morning that I need to do the cold start warm up for the 22 Minute Hard Corp before I really got into the workout. This was a nice choice. My body slow started waking up and by the time I started Cardio 1 I was ready. So, I completed cold start, cardio 1 and core 1. I will say that I felt much better after I got my workout done and it set the tone for the rest of my day.
I then went down to the barn and had another great and I mean great lesson on Bella. There were a few funny moments in the lesson such as the time Judy told me to keep my hands down by Bella's withers. I can't do that, my arms are to short and my torso is to long. I tried to follow her instructions but then I had to stop and tell her I physically can't do what she was asking. We had a good laugh because Judy has the opposite problem her arms are long and her torso is short, she would have found that very easy. After we made a few adjustments for my body type things just got better and better. So proud of my Bella girl for giving me her all again today.
After my great ride I ran to the store and bought a few things to meal prep for the week. As you know from previous post I have really been on a salad kick. Still on it. And these salads are delicious. I also decided to make cauliflower pizza. I haven't made it in such a long time but it is pretty yummy. So meal prep got done and I made the very yummy pizza (recipe in the recipe section of this blog). Now I'm ready to sit down and relax with my hubby before we have a super early morning skypeing with his sister in Germany because tomorrow she gets married!! So excited for her! Wishing her the best here in the US!
I know that it is ridiculous to feel pudgy but I do. My clothes are a little tighter and I'm all around just a little bit softer. I'm pretty sure that this is from my switching birth control pills recently. My new pill has a higher level of estrogen and this can sometime cause weight gain. I'm going to give it a few months but man so not fair when I've just started a new workout program!
And a workout program that I'm really digging. I like the 22 Minute Hard Corp a lot. I've pushed play everyday that I am suppose to and I'll admit that everyday I'm not going full out but I am getting it done. My eating hasn't been completely on par but it also hasn't been horrible. I know that in that department I need to do a little better and I am trying to and I will. So it should be very interesting to see where this takes me. With a new pill with new hormones and a new awesome workout program I can't wait to see myself after the two months time.
If you are interested in trying this program fill out the form below. I would love for you to join me on this journey!
Started the day off with a this great scripture verse and I think it set the tone for the rest of my day.
Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things, Love Never Fails.
I Corinthians 13:7
This Wednesday just turned out to truly be an amazing day. So let me take you through it for a bit. On week 2 day 3 of 22 Minute Hard Corp and I really want to stay committed to doing this program so even though I had a pretty active day ahead of me I still got up and pressed play because I mean come on I can do it for 22 minutes. Did Resistance 1 today and I do like this workout until the very end when you have to do the bonus round of fast feet, burpee, pushups! Did it and felt pretty good afterwards.
Then it was on to the barn for a lesson on Bella with Judy Whyte. Needless to say we had a super awesome lesson and even went through a 3rd level test for the first time but I'm going to give Bella a post all to herself so I'll go into detail there. But I was incredibly proud of my Bella for doing a test in a level that I never thought she would be able to. Hard work has paid off there.
Then it was time for my personal training at Trinity Fitness with one of my favorite people my personal trainer Dona Batten. I had a new workout today and was excited to see what was in store for me. (the setup for my personal training is that I get a new program every month and build on it for the month) I made a little video of some of my favorite moves today. But I loved this workout and will be looking forward to doing it for the next 4 weeks!

My test group and I made it through the first full week of the 8 week program 22 Minute Hard Corp presented by Tony Horton and Beachbody. Here is a run down of how this week went for me personally.
Anytime I am starting a new program I fully want to commit and I want others to do the same thing. So for this group I named it "test group" because I only wanted people who would really try to stick with the program to the best of their abilities. Now if people weren't up to that task then I also have a 21 day challenge group that started today, so no one gets left out and there is a group for everyone!
I have done really great in the workout side of things with this program I am doing the prescribed workout everyday plus I ride my horse 4x a week and I have a personal training session 1x a week. I know this is a lot and because of that I take my time with the workouts. I don't push myself as hard on the days that I ride and I definitely not on the days that I ride and have personal training (Wednesdays!) But I am pushing play everyday and I feel like that's possible because the workouts are really only 22 minutes long and someday's have an extra 10 minute ab workout. So in total its only 33 minutes long at the most. Very, very doable.
Now on to the eating side of things. Overall I would say I'm doing very good for me. I have had a few minor mishaps which I have blogged about in the previous posts. But overall my eating as been pretty on par. This is in part to my meal prep which most consist of delicious salads but having them prepped and ready for the week really helps.
Overall I am feeling great. I can see some good toning and definition coming back especially in my abs. My weight has stayed the same but I'm not to concerned about that. I'll be excited to take measurements again next week and see if there is any improvement. Here's a little clip of today's workout Resistance 2.

On Saturday's I have a hard time getting up early to work out. It's my earliest day of the week for work. My first client is booked at 8:30 so I need to leave the house pretty early. Today the alarm went off and I just couldn't bring myself to get up. I hit snooze and slept for a little longer. It was bliss. Then I started the day right with my daily dose of dense nutrition, Shakeology. I love starting my day with my shake. It taste delicious and I feel like I'm getting a treat.
Work was super busy, pretty much booked back to back with clients. I had a quick lunch which was a great salad I had prepared earlier in the week and a snack of yogurt with granola. Then I finished my day and started walking to my car. Well, on the way to my car I have to pass a few cafe/pastry shops. Today I didn't make it past The Dogtag Barkery. UH OH. I walked in and ordered a delicious slice of raspberry cheesecake and can I say that it was totally worth it. It was one of the best slices of cheesecake. Now this is what I will say. Do not walk past a bakery when you are hungry!
Now I shouldn't have had the cheesecake because I am part of a "test" group that is doing the complete program of 22 Minute Hard Corp. But I had it and I wasn't going to let it derail me. So I got home totally exhausted and pushed play. Yep, you read it right I pushed Play. I did the prescribed workout for today which is Resistance 1. I did have to modify things because I was tired but I still did it because I promised myself that I would. I promised myself that I would do the best of my ability to stick with this program.
So there you have it. The day started off on the right foot with my Shakeology then veered off with the yummy cheesecake and got back on track with a good workout. This is to say don't let a bad choice ruin your day. See the whole picture there is so much more to it then one bad choice.
