It's Not Easy, But It's Worth It. Daily Motivation

Hard work is called hard for a reason, but it doesn't mean that you don't do it because of its true meaning. If it was easy, everyone would do it!!  Everyone would be healthy, fit and successful, but its the strong willed, the determined, the fighters that work hard to achieve their goals.
YOU ARE THAT PERSON!
Get out there and make it happen!! If it is fitness that is hard to stick with, find a partner to motivate you. Take a class that the instructor motivates you. Find a stranger in class, that has a story that motivates you. Right affirmations and place them around your house, car, work place and remind yourself that you can do anything if you put your heart and mind to it. Buy healthy foods so you are not tempting to snack late nights. Buddy with your significant other or a friend to help each other when you are tempted to do so.
IT IS WORTH IT!

Daily Motivation

Whatever your motivation is...use it, remember it, write it down, post it all over your house, at your workplace, put a reminder on your wrist. Be creative and make it fun. You have the power to achieve greatness. You have the power to achieve your goals.
Make fitness fun by trying new things. There are so many options for people. If you love to dance, take Zumba, Hip Hop Hustle or Zumba Tone. Barre Sculpt is another way to feel a smooth rhythm while sculpting your buns to tightness.
If you like a more structured fitness routine, try Kettlebell, Sculpting classes or Bootcamp or RIPPED. If you like to do a more relaxed form of workout, yet want a great sculpting and stretching class, try Pilates, Bootie Camp Yoga or any form of Yoga.
There are so many to choose from. The hardest part is deciding which one to do. Try them all and see what works best for you.
Stay fit, Be well,

A limitation is only an excuse- Daily Fitness Motivation

We all have limitations. One kind or another. Its what you do to overcome it, or get around it, or use it to your advantage that makes us stronger. Believe in yourself and do what it takes to get to your goals.
I want to tell you a story a client told me the other day..
She went to the Survivor Mud Run in Lake Elsinore last year which is a very intense 5k/10k obstacle course style race. It isn't for the weary. It isn't even for the average 5k runner. This race if for the hardcore. She wasn't sure if she was going to enter the race because she heard how hard it was. I didn't mention that she went to watch last year, but not race.
She decided this year to enter the race because she saw not one, but multiple people hustling through this treacherous race with prosthetics. She was still thinking "I'm just not that tough." Till she saw a team of 2 in the middle of the pack.  This was a team with 2 people and only 2 legs. One of the teammates was missing both of his legs. During all the obstacles he used his upper body and made it over every leap and bound, during the run section he was carried on piggy back. This changed my clients mind, and said that if that guy can do it "I should have no excuse."
This is a story about a women with fears and a man that showed her that there is NO EXCUSE not to do something that you want to do!
My client is entered to do this race March 2013 when it comes back to Lake Elsinore.
If you are interested in this race check out  www.survivormudrun.com for more information.

Monday Official Start Day-Daily Fitness Motivation

Why is Monday always the day we say we will start something new, something fresh, a goal and task?
Well, today is Monday so do as you say. Start your diet of eating healthy and feeding your body nutrients that it can use to fuel those workouts you are going to start. You are going make yourself a priority. You will exercise at least 4 times a week, or hit the gym so hard you are shredded by January. You shouldn't need a new year's resolution. You will stay on track and make it easier for yourself during the holidays to have a few bites of junk food or your mom's amazing pumpkin pie.
