HIIT! High Intensity Interval Training

Posted by

0

I didn’t feel in the flow of this workout. The ground is a bit uneven in my backyard, thanks to George the dog.  My hips could have been a bit lower in my jump squats. It doesn’t need to be perfect to do it. Just start. If you are a beginner try for 2 minutes and build up.

I have been adding more HIIT into my week. I include it in every Fit and Fab workout.  I love it. It takes 4 minutes and it is amazing how much better you feel when you are finished. Sometimes, I will turn a 4 minute song on and when the song is over, I am done! Here is a Fun Peppy Song unless you are over it. I would love your musical suggestions.

After my HIIT workout, I like to do Eric Goodman’s Foundation Training.  Some impact is important, helps build strong bones! I am looking for the right balance, too much impact is not a good thing.  Foundation Training, stretches and strengthens all at the same time. Give it a try. It is the perfect way to end a workout.

Workout 

20 seconds on 10 seconds rest

Tuesday morning check in. I am down 2.4 in a week! I measured my waist last week and it was a tight, suck it in 31 inches. Today it got there with ease. Whew~

This has been an easy process, cutting back on my eating and bumping up the exercise a little bit. I had a daily glass of organic red wine and Sunday night is always ice cream night at our house. A cup of vanilla with a spoonful of caramel sauce. AND I am 2.4 pounds lighter! No deprivation here.

I am putting this all together for a September program. Interested ? It is amazing what accountability can do. We will raise each other up! Let me know, I will put you on the list!

Menopausal Belly Video?

I weighed myself this morning.

WOW...

WOW…

 

 

 

 

 

I know I have put on a few pounds. My belly is expanding. I am Miss Fit and Fabulous so it is really hard for me to talk about this. I am being honest with myself and all of you. In the past, I would have done the 5 day Reset program which works really well if you have a sugar issue. The first time I did Reset I definitely had sugar issues and I lost 5 pounds in 5 days. It worked  great and I no longer have sugar issues. The last few times I did Reset I lost 2 pounds. I don’t want to Reset to lose the weight.

Yes, there is a chocolate shake in the box!

Yes, there is a chocolate shake in the box!

 

I do have a wonderful morning shake from my healthy gut program. Nutrimeal Free, strawberries, cucumber and Fibergy. I had a shake at 6:30 and wasn’t hunger for lunch until 1.

I have decided not to be hard on myself but to exercise a little more and eat a little less.  I take my Fit and Fabulous supplement, so important to nutrient your cells properly. The weight will come off easier.

I shot my own video, debated whether I should post it. It is my first one, they will get better, it is a bit shaky.

Please, I would love to hear from you. This was not an easy post. You will be my accountability partner!

Thank you.

Love,

Mary

Snacking is SO not Chic!

I snack everyday. How about you? I actually text a Fit and Fabulous group everyday around 3:30 to have a snack and take their supplements. (only the best supplements of course.)

I am reading a new book. I found Jennifer L Scott of The Daily Connoisseur on youtube. I became obsessed. I bought her book Lessons from Madame Chic 20 Stylish Secrets I learned while living in Paris.  It arrived in the mail and I open up the book to find an adorable 5×7 book. I am savoring it. It is all apart of a Fit and Fabulous lifestyle!

Live a Passionate Life

Live a Passionate Life

Part 1 Diet and Exercise. (“MAKE DINING WELL A PRIORITY”)

Part 2 Style and Beauty. (Jennifer Loves An Apron.) (Who doesn’t?)

Part 3 How to Live Well. (“CLUTTER IS SO NOT CHIC.”)  Jennifer is also a fan of the LIFE CHANGING MAGIC OF TIDYING UP by Marie Kondo.

The first chapter of MADAME CHIC, Snacking is So not Chic.

I agree, sitting down on the sofa, eating potato chips and watching TV is SO not chic. I do better especially in the afternoon when I have a snack. Here is my favorite snack. I try to sit down and enjoy it instead of shoving it in my mouth as I go out the door. I think the point is for me, slow down, take a moment and savor what I am eating. I not only enjoy it more, I noticed that I am eating less and feel more satisfied. AND bonus round  less bloat!

I love reading lifestyle books. I love when people have their rules that they live by. It is always inspiring and motivating for me to do things a little differently and little better. You don’t have to do things exactly their way, tweak it to create a wonderful life for yourself and your family.

Let me know what if this resonates with you. I love to hear from you.

Love,

Mary

I have been BENCHED!

It is time to rest, which is not an easy thing for me to do. I love working out with my group. I love how I feel when I workout. Doing pushups, mountain climbers and burpees is  all very empowering.

Sometimes your body tells you to slow down and take care of yourself. My body probably has been telling me that for awhile but I don’t like to hear it.

This weekend went spent hours in the car and my back seized up so now I really need to rest, ice and some foam rolling.  Movement is good but I can’t push it to the pain level. I tend to push through the pain as an athlete you learn to do that. Right? I don’t need to anymore. The goal is to be healthy, fit and feeling good.

So for now I have been benched.

Sometimes you just need to sit on a swing.

Sometimes you just need to sit on a swing.

Actually, I can move as I want as long as it doesn’t cause pain. Movement is good, pain causes inflammation. It is especially important to be taking my supplements now. They will help reduce the inflammation in my body.

How do you do with taking time off from working out? Does it make you cranky, irritable or are you happy to have a break? I would love to hear from you.

Take away…be nice to yourself!

Love,

Mary

What supplements do you take?

I have been getting asked about the supplements that I take. FIRST, let me tell you why I take them. Dr. Christiane Northrup told me too! These are the supplements that she list in all of her books. Her latest book Goddesses Never Age, they are included in something you do everyday. If you want to be a person that gets older but doesn’t age I suggest you get on her regimen. She has an amazing 14 day Goddesses Never Age Program to get you started.

I did not need to do any research nor do I have the background to research them. I certainly know that Dr. Northrup knows her stuff.  If they are good enough for her, they are good enough for me.

Some of my clients say they are too expensive. Would you rather spend half the price and receive very little nutritional support? Or invest in your health and make it a priority? I decided that there is nothing more important than your health. I could go off and write about my son Thomas who spent the first 13 months of his life in the hospital and came home on a ventilator. One sentence explains enough. Health is a priority for me and my family.

So I created my own AM and PM health pack. So convenient.

My Ageless Goddess Pack! #Fitandfabulous

My Ageless Goddess Pack!
#Fitandfabulous

My AM PACK

2 Antioxidants

2 Chelated Minerals

1Fish oil

1 Vision Support

1 Glucosamine

1Grape seed extract

My PM pack

2 Antioxidants

2 Chelated Minerals

1 Fish oil

1 Vision support

1 Glucosamine

1Co Q 10

At bedtime, I take Calcium Magnesium,  melatonin and liver detox. I take probiotic every day.

Here is a video from the company that describes the Quality Guaranteed.

As I am writing this, I think wow, that seems over the top. You know, it is very doable, takes 10 seconds to take your vitamins. I feel great for the most part, I get up early and workout hard three times a week, moved 5 yards of mulch this weekend, and I plan on getting better.

Fit and Fabulous…Aging Optional!

Full disclosure here. I love the products so much I decided to sell them. If you are interested in the supplements click here. If you are not in the US you can click on the link on the top right hand corner of my website that says change countries. Contact me and I can get you the best price.

So there you have it!

Menopausal Belly???

“If you heard of menopausal belly, or wondered why it’s so commonplace to misplace your cell phone and keys when you hit midlife, let go of the idea that the problem is your hormones or “early old-timer’s disease.” Don’t think that way or talk that way. It isn’t your hormones, or early dementia, or a natural part of midlife that’s got your belly sticking out and your brain muddled. It’s what you are eating. The culprit is probably grains.” Dr. Christiane Northrup, Goddesses Never Age

So what do you think about that? My belly is certainly bigger, even though I work out and eat well most of the time.

I think it is super important to keep your blood sugar stable, get off the sugar and grains. I have reduced both but over the winter but the grains have started creeping back in.

I am going grain free for two weeks and see how I feel. I will probably continue past that but as you know, I don’t want  to be overly strict. It doesn’t work well for me. Actually, it makes me crazy,” no elimination diet” for me.

Yesterday, Easter Sunday was a FUN sugar day. Sunday, is a “day off” and it is beginning to feel like I don’t really want it but I do it anyway. Tom and I have an ice cream sundae every Sunday. I will stop that for two weeks as well.

If grain free feels to extreme to you. It is a great time for the gluten free 5 day Reset program to get you back on track. It will change you from a sluggish sugar burner to a vibrant energetic fat burner!

So important to take a high quality supplements. I have the inside scoop on amazing Ageless Goddess’ supplement pac. On your way to fabulous, vibrant and healthy! I can customize a energizing pac for you here. #fitandfabulous #agelessgoddesses

Let me know if you are interested in going grain free. Always great to do it with a group. I sent a text to Ivone and Karin last night and they are in as well. Keeps us all committed!

That is it for now, let me know what you think.

Love,

Mary

Are you concerned about impact? I love a little impact.

A year ago, I injured my low back, debilitating pain in my left glute, tingling around my knee. I went to my chiropractor and he said to me, how old are you? He wanted me to stop the impact, talk a walk, swim,  AND no impact.  I rested, took a few pain killers, went to physical therapy and I am back to working out.

I did change things up. I have created an effective workout that you do in a minimal amount of time.  I focus on recovery. I foam roll everyday sometimes twice a day, get really good massages, epsom salt baths, etc. After every workout, I include the Foundation training, the work of Dr. Eric Goodman.

I also eat a low-glycemic, low -inflammatory diet. I take really great supplements.  I especially like glucosamine with turmeric.

Today’s workout is a FUN one of course. When was the last time you jumped rope?

Here is the link to the Foundation Training that I do after every workout. You will finished feeling LONG and LEAN…an inch taller:) Go slow with it, build up, you don’t need to do the whole workout all at once. It is not easy but very effective. Strengthens and Stretches!
