Ways to keep warm this week!

Wow! It's cold out there. Makes me want to curl up on the couch and eat comfort foods!

OK, to ward off the couch potato urges, try one of these: Go for a run (I just did, it really helped!), Get out to the park and run around with your kids and/or come to one of my sessions this week!

Schedule for this week is as follows:
Tuesday and Thursday 9:30a
Friday at 10am

As usual, we will be at the track in Redondo (Aviation Field corner of Manhattan Bch Blvd and Aviation)

The 6 week Intensive continues this week at our usual times Wed & Friday at 9am. Although this Intensive is full, if there is enough interest, I am happy to kick start another intensive if there are enough people. (4 min, 6 max)

Also here's a healthy and tasty way to stay warm with Stuffed Cinnamon French Toast (from Men's Health Nutrition Guide). My husband, Bryan, made these Easter morning and they were REALLY good, hard to believe that they are actually good for you! Enjoy! Barb

Stuffed Cinnamon French Toast

2 tbsp part-skim ricotta cheese
2 slices whole grain bread
1 tsp honey
pinch+1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp slices almonds
1 egg
1 tbsp 1% milk
handful of fresh berries

Spread the room-temp ricotta on a slice of whole-grain bread. Drizzle the honey over the cheese and sprinkle lightly with a pinch of cinnamon. Top with sliced almonds and another slice of whole-grain bread. Whisk together the egg, milk, and 1/2 tsp cinnamon. Dip the bread into the egg mixture and cook over medium heat on a nonstick griddle of skillet coated with cooking spray, until the bread is lightly browned and the cheese is melted. Serve with berries. Makes 1 serving

The Barbfit Website is Live!

Hey Everyone!

I'm happy to announce that I have the first version of my website live! Woo Hoo!

Check it out at http://barbfit.sports.officelive.com. Here you will find info about the workout sessions. Bookmark the site and share it with your friends. It's the first version, so I will be adding more pix and more info over the next month. Let me know if there is something more you would like to see on the site and I will try to incorporate it.

Note that I will continue this weekly blog as it's a great way to send you info, articles, recipes etc. And also an easy way to let you know what's going on every week.


Week of April 11th Session Times:
Workout Sessions will be Tues & Thursday at 9:30a at the Redondo Track (Manhattan Beach Blvd & Aviation) I am also holding a Wednesday session at 9am, as I am heading out of town early Friday morning and cannot run a session on Friday. Let me know what day or days you can join so I can plan accordingly.

6 Week Intensive: The Six week intensive is currently scheduled to start next week (Week of April 19th). I have space for 2 possibly 3 more if you are interested in siging up. The days and time that currently works is Wednesday and Friday at 9am. Note for those who cannot attend the 6 week Intensive, I will still run regular sessions on Fridays, but will need to move the time to 10a-11a. Hope that still works for you all. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Follow this link for a more detailed description of the 6 Week Intensive: http://barbfit.sports.officelive.com/SessionDescriptions.aspx

Hope to see you this week. Have a great one!

Welcome Back Workouts

Welcome back!

I hope all of you had a wonderful break and are all rested up and ready to come to a session this week! I will be doing workouts Tues, Thurs & Friday at 9:30a this week. Please let me know which day or days you would like to join.

6 Week Intensive:
I would like to start the 6 Week Intensive the week of 4/19. The goal is to have 2 sessions/week (ex:Tues/Thurs or Wed/Friday). The 6 week program will still focus on a core workout, but each week will be designed to increase the intensity of the work we do. I need a minimum of 4 participants to run the sessions. If you pay in advance, you will get 1 class free in the 6 week session. (12 sessions for $110) I would also like to start earlier (8:30a-ish) so that I can still run the other classes at the regular 9:30a time frame. So let me know who is interested and what days work best for you.

See you soon. Have a great week.
