Week Two Is About To Begin

For those of you who are looking to continue on with the program that we started last week, here is the second week of walking that is encouraged to be used. This is an easy program that can be used quickly in 30 minutes and if used properly with correct diet and exercise you should already be feeling a bit better in terms of energy and better sleep.
Please understand that this is a day to day process and that you will have to know that the time it took you to get where you are was also a process. In other words, it did not take you a day to gain the weight it is not going to take a day to get the weight off. I suggest that in this process of looking good that you make the time to understand that you are required by me to feel good as well.
Feel good about the process, feel good about the energy, feel good about the fact that you are not perfect but you are trying.

Now know this as well. This is week two. You made it to week two. Check back with us and lets get your cupboards and your refrigerator filled with good wholesome foods.
See you soon.



Week 2: Circuit walk

Length: 30 minutes

Goal: This walk mixes everything up so your body stays challenged and your mind doesn't get bored. You'll do some untraditional walking, which will work your muscles differently, in the end challenging you even more. The bonus? These untraditional moves engage the abs so you'll get a little tummy toning while you walk. One note: If you're on a treadmill, slow down a little so you can do these moves. You might even want to do the entire walk on the floor, marching in place when the plan calls for regular walking.
