New mom ... find your new workout tribe!

One word .. FIT4MOM !!

Fit4Mom has workouts for every stage of motherhood from being pregnant to wanting to get back that killer bod (or at least lose a few pounds and then some ;)  )

There is prenatal fitness classes called FIt4Baby ... studies have shown how beneficial it is to workout out while pregnant (with your doctors permission of course).  There classes are a great workout plus you get to meet other women on the same journey as you are.

After you have that cute bundle of joy, there is Stroller Strides or Stroller Barre.  Both classes enable you to bring your baby, both classes keep you and that baby moving so that they aren't stationary (and we moms know how babies like to feel movement) and it also incorporates singing and keeping your baby entertained while you get a fantastic workout.  Stroller Strides is more cardio and strength while Stroller Barre is more toning, posture and alignment.  Best part of class is that there are playgroups where the playgroup captain brings fun things for the kids and snacks for the kids and the moms!  There is also Mom's Night Out, where moms get together monthly at night, get to get dressed for a dinner one month, pedicure the next!  Where else can you find a community like this .. of moms that become friends and help you out when needed.  It's amazing!

If you are really serious about getting back into shape they have a moms only class called Body Back that also works in nutrition and keeps you accountable.  Classes meet twice a week  and there are a lot of before and after pictures of moms that really are getting their bodies back!


They also implemented a new class called Strides 360.  This class is neat, lots and lots of cardio with active resting strength.  It's great to mix it in with Stroller Barre or Body Back even Run Club.


Try it Mommas!  Click here to find your location.  Most locations do a trial, so you have nothing to lose and everything to gain for trying it out.

Love your body, it's the only one you have.  Honor it by working out and having the intention to live a healthy life for you and your family.

How about that Disney race ....

Ah Disney ... The most magical place on the planet.  I have hundreds of memories from going to Disney as a child from ages 4 - 15, at least once a year, sometimes twice.  Easily about 20 times in my lifetime.  So having the chance to run into Magic Kingdom through Cinderella's castle, not to mention the amazing medals that you can get ... How can you turn that down??   After paying the bargain price of $350 to run a 10K and Half Marathon the training commenced (after I gave birth to an almost 10 pound baby!!). One thing I have to say about Disney, their packet pickup and actual event is that they are extremely organized.  After working with a local running company, and just participating in other races, no one has the organization or man power like Disney has.   If you can afford it, staying within Disney property is worth it.  They had specific transportation for the run to the expo and to the races itself.  You don't have to worry about parki...

ProLon FMD Fasting time

I am a junkie .. a cleanse junkie.  The idea of not eating the junk processed, over salted, over fried, too much of anything appeals to me very much.  Now with studies showing intermittent fasting is on the trend and can be good for you, why not try it?  I have tried a few cleanses over time so I feel like I can talk about them, and how I felt and which ones I would do again.  This is my first "fast" though. Salt ~ Lemonade ~ Cayenne Pepper Cleanse This cleanse is hardcore and I at my age and where I am at in life would not do it again.  You down SALTY water first thing in the morning which almost immediately follows with a trip to the bathroom since it runs straight through your system.  You drink the lemonade cayenne pepper drink all day and a laxative tea at night.  You do this for several days.  Supposedly it helps clear out your colon.  Which I can see ... around day 5 there were still some solids which I had to idea where they were...

Haven't posted in a while ... but welcome running weather from the horrible Chicago Winter 2013/2014

Hello summer, you have been missed.  I for one cannot run in the cold, so I am greatly appreciative that you have finally gotten here.  So the big reason that I stopped for a while is because I had a bad fall skiing and partially tore and sprained two ligaments in my left knee... OUCH!  So with months of physical therapy, I was finally able to start doing a little running.  I did the Chicago Monster Dash Half Marathon in 2012 with a woefully sad time of 3 hours and 20+ minutes.  I had to walk a lot of it and my knee was in a lot of pain.  I did finish, so that was an accomplishment, but I know I was looking towards 2013 and better running times. Here is my race schedule for this year: Women's Half Marathon on the Mag Mile - August 31, 2014 Chicago Monster Dash Half Marathon - October 25, 2014 Naperville Half Marathon - November 9, 2014  This should hopefully get me a Neptune Moon level for the Half Marathon Fanatics, here's hoping! Training st...
