Circuit Training this week

Hello!

Hope you all are well and enjoyed the Thanksgiving week.

I wanted to let you know that I'm offering a new circuit training format that I think you'll enjoy.  It combines some of the work we've been doing in our core sessions with other exercises using jump ropes, medicine balls and athletic drills.   I'm having a lot of fun training folks in this format and would love for you to try it out too!  Check out the schedule for Group Circuit Training below and let me know if you'd like to join.  As always, the schedule is below for our regular Core Sessions, if you haven't been to one in a while, maybe now is the time to get in a few sessions before the Holidays.

Note:  I am out of town next week (week of December 4th), so I will not have any midweek sessions.  I will be available on the weekend, so please email me if you would like to schedule a session then.

Have a great week!  Hope to see you soon.

1-1 Training:
Whether your goal is to lose weight or to run your first marathon, I would love to work with you to create a customized program to meet your goal.  Your first session will be 90 minutes and includes an assessment of your goals and current fitness level, so that I can design a workout program just for you.   If you commit to 6 weeks of training, I will also provide you a weekly plan to help guide you through your workouts and meal plans.  So now all you have to do is email me and let's schedule that first session!

Last Chance Workout

Ok, so I'm definitely watching too many episodes of The Biggest Loser.  ;-)  However I did want to make sure that you knew that you still have time to get a bunch of good workouts this week before Thanksgiving week food, travel and getting out of your normal workout routine.  So, take advantage of the sun and get out there!

I've also added an easy healthy pancake recipe that I use with the kids often.  It's packed with protein and quick to make.

Hope to see you this week for a workout!

A quick and easy "Good for you" Meal

I had a craving for fried rice last week, but didn't want to eat such a greasy meal.  So, I improvised with brown rice from Trader Joe's and whipped up a healthy fried rice alternative that tastes good and is also pretty quick to make.   Try it out, ingredients are below.  Hope you like it.

Have a great week.  Hope to see you soon.

Healthy Fried Rice:
What you need:
-Trader Joe's Frozen Brown Rice

-1/4 cup Lean Cooked Ham (preferably diced )
-1/4 cup chopped avocado
-Handful of spinach
-Salt & Pepper to taste (careful on the salt though)
-Optional - 1/4 cup black beans and/or corn

Mixing it up:
-Microwave the TJ's brown rice per directions on the box.   Then, mix the cooked rice with the egg whites in a frying pan on medium heat that has been lightly greased with Olive Oil or Canola Oil and mix until the eggs are cooked in (roughly 2-3 mins).   Mix in the ham and stir fry for another 2-3 minutes.  Finally, mix in the spinach and the avocado and lightly season with salt and pepper until all the ingredients are heated up together.  Makes about 2-3 servings.
