Thank-you to the men and women of the Armed Forces of the United States who serve this country with distinction and preserve our freedom throughout the world.
I don’t care if you are liberal or conservative, democrat, republican, libertarian or in between – Go out of your way to thank one of these brave men and women and honor the memory of those who have gone before. America is not perfect, but it is still the greatest country in the world. I am pretty easy to get along with, but don’t mess with me on this one!
Memorial Day also marks the unofficial beginning of summer. Soon the weather here in the northeast will be scorching, the shirts come off, the bathing suits on.
Not always pretty!
Dean reminded me recently of the importance of DEADLINES when you set a goal.
So if you aren’t quite “beach ready” yet, the next deadline to get there is July 4th – five weeks away.
What can you get done in 5 weeks?
A lot!
Here’s some recent stats from Cr8 Fitness:
Susan just completed 2- 30 second hangs from the bar on her first attempt.
Lindsey lost 7 pounds in the first week of S3.
and Roni told me she had just crossed the 11 pounds in two weeks!
It can be done, and YOU can be the one doing it!
Here’s what you need to start dropping that unwanted body fat:
- Create a calorie deficit – Gotta do it. Burn more calories than you consume.
- Optimal nutrition AND exercise is the most efficient and effective way to accomplish the deficit.
- Green veggies, lean proteins and healthy fats form the foundation of a fat-burning plan. Starches, sugars and alcohol will kill your energy and the ability to burn fat.
- Resistance training and interval training. Get off the treadmill and get to work. You want to get lean, you have to earn it. Check out what Coach Dean has been writing about regarding aging and training.
Getting lean is simple, but it’s not easy. Take the steps every day to Make It Happen.
Don't forget on Memorial Day we'll be kicking off the day with the entire group at Cr8 Fitness training together at 8am. It will include some time outside so be ready.
To Your Best Health,
Coach Nancy
