I'm Here

Dear Fitness Inspirers,

I'm here and I want to coach you! I would love to coach you at the highest level I’m offering right now which is the VIP package, but if that is not the right fit for you right now or yet. The Inspired level of the signature program is just phenomenal, and it will rock your world if you let it! It will give you the tools, the coaching, the accountability and team! It will help you show up for better health in 2021! And a better mindset, waist line if that makes sense for you as well, and other positive ripple effects are here when you notice.

With the virtual options that all of us need for 2021, I don’t need to put a cap on these two groups. But we made the decision to anyway. Because I want to know who my team is! I want us to show up for each other, and for your goals too! I am so excited to see your potential in real life! I promise you, if you stretch yourself, if you challenge yourself even a little bit each workout/program/session on repeat, you will amaze your self/family/friends/team with how much you are capable of!

I am going into this year, with renewed and fierce belief with what you are capable of. With what this Fitness Inspired community is capable of. And the ripple effect of positive impact and the decision to invest in ourselves like we invest in others. Your generosity, joy, knowledge and impact will overflow when we “but first” make the choice to put some water in our cup to start our days and keep on doing that!

Here’s to you! Here’s to 2021! There are seven spots left in our VIP level right now let me know if you want in on that or the Inspired level!

You’re A Star!

3 cozy Fall Fitness Inspired tips

9/21/2020

0 Comments

 
Happy Fall y'all! Below are the bullets/cliffnotes if you will of this episode with the same name on Making Changes You Love to Live With Podcast, where I go into more detail and of course invite you to take a little walk in the crisp fall air or drink some fall inspired tea while you enjoy the listen too!
  1. Treat Yourself, in healthy, non-food ways more. The more your brain associated these new healthy indulges the easier it will be to reinforce the habit :).
  2. Steer clear or limit to intentional splurges "drinking your calories." I know, I know indulgent festive drinks or all the rage this time of year! I give you a few ways to upgrade your experience without having it sabotage your healthier food plan.
  3. Use those delicious fall scents in the form or candles, essential oils! Our sense of smell is an incredible trigger for emotion or memory--let's use it to our advantage instead of detriment!
Do you have any ideas of non-food and drink fall treats that we should totally do this season? I want to hear about them in the comments :) Happy Fall y'all!

Who feels better when they have great energy?! Me. Me. Me and I can always feel it when I’m around people at a workout or around someone in general what their energy is! If we are being honest, we know that this makes a difference right? The energy we bring to a situation and what vibes other people are bringing makes a difference! We are in the middle of a fired up 4 day challenge here at Fitness Inspired and I wanted to share these 3 ways we can do to get and keep us fired up!
  • Fired up! What are you thankful for?  Excited about? Or fired up about right now? What you appreciate will be appreciate. Let’s take notice and express gratitude for what we can be and are fired up about right now :)
  • Fired up! For what’s coming!! During the quarantine I have found myself many times getting in a mind rut because I wasn’t finding something or planning something concrete to look forward to. Let’s plan, look forward to and get fired up for the future we are creating today!
  • Fired up purpose and in the present by being playful with our plan and the process! If the plan is to get a fired up workout in for the next 4 days (which it is) let’s have some fun with it!! Let’s bring the energy to each workout! Let’s notice when someone crosses your mind and reach out to them! You never know when you might make someone’s day! Let’s encourage and elevate our friends who are rocking this 4 day challenge too!
Join in on our FREE to you - Fired up 4 day challenge at: www.LiveFitnessInspired.com/firedup

How do you get and stay fired up?! Any hacks you practice to keep your mind right and pump you up to bring your best self to the situation?

Here are five strategies you can try that I think could really help you when you are not feeling motivated! Or maybe you are in a downward spiral of emotion or mindset muck (like I was the other day ). Or it could be that you keep on not doing and being the person you set out to be.

Do you need some help coping with the COVID-19 crisis?

4/20/2020

Yeah, me too! I want you to start by doing two things: 1) know that you are not alone! 2) Let’s take a big deep breath together, hold the air in, and blow out the air with a long exhale. I wanted to share a few ways we can all use exercise as medicine (please note I am not a doctor and this doesn’t replace any medical advice) to help during this time. Think of exercise as an incredible tool, especially if you are feeling like your schedule, sleep, or stress is out of hand! Check and see if one of these ways of looking at exercise helps you, and I invite you to disregard anything that doesn’t apply to you, and your current situation. Don’t forget to apply these tips in a safe way given our current health and pandemic recommendations :)

Staying Healthy and Strong and Inspired During Difficult Times - Part Two

3/25/2020

0 Comments

 
If you didn't already, be sure to check out Part One of this post HERE.

FUEL YOUR BODY (AND MIND) THE BEST YOU CAN
What we are consuming for our physical body and what we are consuming for our mental and emotional health matters! Period. end of story, right? Yes, it matters. Now what do we do about it? There are several traps I see people in the middle of and find myself in the midst of too at times. Here are some strategies that have worked for me and other Fitness Inspirers too. I will go through a list of ideas for you— give yourself some grace, find one that feels good to you, and be proud of yourself for even going “there.” Bring your awareness to what and when and how much of what types of food, drink, water, media you are consuming? It helps a lot of people to get it down on paper. Ask yourself some questions, one idea—does this feel healthy for me in this season of life right now? Another idea is what I call the “But First” principle. You know the shirts that say But First, coffee? It goes with this idea if we can change just one thing, change what you lead each meal with for example, But First, I eat my veggies. And what we start our day with, and out of transition how do we start our next “thing.” This has been a life-changing principle that so many Fitness Inspirers are so happy to have adopted! Your day just goes that much better when you start your day with a workout for an example.

Staying Healthy and Strong and Inspired During Difficult Times - Part One

3/24/2020

0 Comments

 
As I write this, gyms are closed, social distancing is becoming increasingly important and there is fear of the unknown.  With this current reality, it's easy to get in a head-spin of fear and negativity.  However, we don't want to live in that place for long or often.  Research tells us, and I think we all know deep down, that getting stuck in fear will erode our mental and physical health.  Like always, we have a choice of how we will react to our situation.  Will we stay down or will we rise?  We have an opportunity to make the best out of this situation and we ALL have it in us to do so!  Let's get some strategy and tools to stay healthy, strong, and inspired during difficult times like now.

Adapting to the new *temporary* normal

3/22/2020

0 Comments

 
Fitness inspired is here to support you in this temporary new normal.

The hardest thing for me at a time like this is the unknown. And right now is no different. I have been hearing from some of you and we are having a cocktail of fears, uncertainty, overwhelm, and big emotions. My best strategy that I have to reverse this spiral -is to get into action. Physical action and strategic action to take even the smallest step forward will help!

No one would blame you right now for shutting down, living in a state or overwhelm and trying to firefight all these issues that may or may not even come true. But I think we can agree that’s not going to serve us. So let’s do this thing! And each day let’s choose courage and get into action.

Let’s get into action together and focus on the foundations that will keep us and our families healthy and strong (mentally and physically).

How can you focus on something you can control and get into action?

Here are a few ideas to try:
  • Get into action physically each day with a fitness inspired workout. Try writing down the workouts you are coming to and holding yourself accountable by checking in with other(s) to meet you there virtually.
  • Think what the core things I know I need to keep me feeling healthy strong. Do a brain dump of what they might be or if that feels overwhelming...finish this sentence each day: In order to feel healthy today I will...
  • Times of stress we are tested. How are we going to deal? Let’s acknowledge our feelings and be present for each other AND get into action! Because you are the type of person who is resilient. You are strong and brave. Let’s see this an opportunity to take action ++ create a positive ripple effect.

Would love to hear what strategies are working for you right now and if you have any other ideas!
