Hello to everyone! Thanks for following my blog! How is everyone doing this week? How did last week go? I have family coming into town this week and so I am really busy. That's why I am a day late sorry!!! I have been cleaning and using my wrist weights. I must say that I do feel like by the end of the cleaning my arms burn a little more than when i don't use them. I promise you won't become muscle builders from these things but they do help tone. Let me know what you think or how they helped.
For this week goal: This week get your kids involved in fitness too!! Here is a fun way to get kids involved with your fitness. While summer is coming to an end. (leaves are already turning colors out here its amazing) here is a great way to get your exercise and have kid time too. Remember hop scotch? Okay put together your own hop scotch playground with numbers. Teach your kids to hop on the numbers and play the game. You get involved too! I did this with my step daughters and we had a blast. Also get some jump ropes and hop and play you will be suprised how much cardio you can get in doing this. Have fun and let me know how it goes.
Fitness Tip: Are you taking time out for you? Stress is the number complaint when going to the doctors office. Try reading a book on your own time, take a bath, or start a new yoga meditation time for yourself. You will be doing yourself and your heart good. Its not just about fitness to make you healthy. You must think about your spiritual side too! Namaste my friends

Workout Wednesday!!!
Hey everyone! Especially Haylee, thank you for following me, love ya girl. Where is everyone else??? Ok so its workout Wednesday everyone try to get in at least 30 minutes of exercise today. If you haven't exercised for a long time, take a walk with a loved one tonight or take the kids to the park and run around with them. Its a great start. I would love to hear how this past week has gone with everyone, you can email me at tdancerc@gmail.com . Did anyone have success or feel differently? Remember its the little things that count.
Here is the Tip of the Week: Since we have moved we now belong to a beautiful fitness center and clubhouse. As I was working out this week I saw some very creative routines that people were doing on their own. I noticed some people would sit on one weight bench and stare at the ceiling for awhile, while others seemed to be lifting weights at a million miles a minute and then drop to the floor and do crunches like they were having convulsions. NOT the way to go my friends. I helped a few of the people out but didn't want to give to much info since I am the new girl in town. I feel its very important to make sure people exercise correctly and safely. Why injure yourself when your trying to better your health? Doesn't make sense right? So here is my tip. If you are lifting weights try going at a slower rate. FASTER DOES NOT MEAN BETTER OR QUICKER RESULTS!!! Your muscles have to work harder when you go slower so. When lifting a weight it should take 2-3 seconds to lift it and 2-3 seconds to bring it down, for real. Try it this week and you will feel a difference. You will be sore I promise.
Goal for this week: Take the stairs when ever possible, even the stairs at your house is a great workout. You don't need a $5,000 stair master machine to get a great workout. Hello use your own stairs and you will get a workout. Go buy some wrist weights for $5.00. They are around 2lbs. When doing your house work put them on and its a great way to tone your arms, just maybe don't let your neighbors see you. In good health my friends!

The First Day of Your Fitness
Hey Everyone welcome to my fitness blog!! I hope that you enjoy the information I share and most of all hope that this will inspire everyone to live a healthier life. Remember its the litttle things that matter most. When I am training clients I also start with little steps and then the rest becomes a habit I promise. Each week I will have some goals and tips that will help everyone. Please pass this along to everyone you know. Ask me questions and lets get healthier together!
This week Goal: Park further away at the parking lot. Instead of taking the first spot up front try going back a little bit further. Its the simple things that add up!!! I know its hard with kids but remember you are setting an example for them that you are going to be healthy and plus you burn more calories unloading the car seats and hanging on to them!!
Tip of the Week! Did you know that if your pee is not clear you are dehydrated??? The darker the color the more dehydrated you are. So lets go clear this week!! Have a water bottle with you all the time and pass on the soda. I have had several clients lose water retention weight just from dropping the soda. The excess sodium is what causes the water retention! Go Clear my friends! Good luck and look forward to hearing how this week goes!
