Have a great Halloween! 

"Something is better than nothing."  Some days we get home mentally and physically beat.  All we want to do is drop where we are standing.  I understand this all too well.  Here's what I do to get my exercise in. 

Find short High Intensity workouts.  These workouts are efficient and allow you time for other things.  The fat burning payoff is awesome. 

Schedule your workouts into your daily planner.  This makes them seem like just another part of your day.  After you're done, you can then rest for the day.

If you normally have a long or heavy workout, lighten the weight you use or take  a piece of the routine out of the workout.

If you just can't make it to the gym or whatever you do for exercise, eat the healthiest meal ever and rest.  Rest is very important to physical fitness, but use this time to recharge and pick up where you left off the next day.

These are just a few things that I practice with much success.  Send me some of your ideas and I'll post them on future entries. 

Much success!

Rent or buy a basic Ballet exercise DVD.  I checked out the New City Ballet Video Workout video from my local Library and I have to tell you the leg exercises are easy to learn, and really work.  

Use the stairs instead of the elevator, and do a calve raise on each one.  Do this every time you use the stairs and you will definitely see a difference.

Jump rope.  This not only builds the legs it also builds cardio and running endurance.

These are just some of the things that I have been doing with much success.  There are tons of other exercises, but these are some basic tips that get results.

Train smart and be creative! 

The Bootcamp hit the road to Lockhart, TX.

The Lockhart High School practice field is awesome.  It is flat for sprints, bear crawls, crab walks, etc. and there are three big tires for pushing, pulling and flipping.   There is also an adjacent outdoor exercise course with parallel bars, chin up bars, a balance beam and various other obstacles.

Mick and Jess finished strong and then unleashed a hardcore full body workout on me.  They have worked hard for five weeks so as a reward they were given the reigns to run me through the gauntlet.  They are tough!

Friends and family are always asking us how to lose weight, and what we eat.  Here's a pic of tonight's dinner.  Greek Shrimp over Couscous with a salad.  Make more healthy meals at home and you will be well on your way to weight loss and abs if you really want it.
