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!

I'm here! Love this idea and will try it out. My house has no stairs though....sad. I've been doing good on no soda...I think it's been 3 weeks since I stopped drinking it. I haven't noticed much difference except that I miss my daily Dr. Pepper. Oh well, I know I'm healthier without it. Love you girl!
