About Me

A little about me. In my normal life, I am a civil engineer who sits behind a desk everyday. I got married to my wonderful husband in 2006. Since meeting him and our many days of eating out and less working out, my weight started to creep up. In August 2007 my girlfriend wanted to get back in shape after her pregnancy. She talked me into running weekly with her. I agreed, and this began my plan to get my body back in shape. I wanted to add some additional workouts to my run, so I pulled out my old Slim in 6 videos. At the same time, I re-found the online message boards at Beachbody where I meet a lot of great people who kept me committed to my fitness goals. I also found a great coach who was there everyday to help me stay on track! Today, I'm still working to sculpt my body and get it into the best shape ever. As I have progressed through my body's transition, I decided to become an Independent Beachbody Coach to help others reach their fitness goals! I realized it was easier then I thought, and I really believe others can change their lives too!

Lean Intervals Done

Today was Lean Intervals, yes another round of torture with Chalene.  Ok, so maybe not to bad.  But, after doing shoulders and back yesterday, doing Lean Intervals with 5 lbs weights was a challenge.  My arms just did not want to go over my head!

I also think I am beginning to have a love/hate relationship with the turbo resistance band.  How can a big rubber band that I put around my ankles make my butt/thighs burn so much????  So ever leg lift, jump,... I do with that band on all I keep saying is- But, it will give you those thighs you want to be sporting this summer in that bikini!  I repeat over and over until Chalene says, ok you can take that band off!

Ok, so pushed through and felt better.  I think once I finally finished and wiped all the sweat off me, I felt a little better anyway!

But, now I'm thinking I need a good massage to get the knots out of my back!  

I have to say, I take the P90X Recovery Drink after all my Chalean Extreme workouts.  I really think that with a little glutamine in it helps me from being totally sore!  I'd recommend these 2 supplements to anyone doing Chalean Extreme!  You can learn more or order the recovery drink by clicking here.

Tomorrow is Lean Circuit 3, and after doing bi's and tri's, shoulders and back, I'm thinking this workout will be a lot of lower body!  Do my legs ever get a rest?

If you have any questions about Chalean Extreme or any other program/supplement, make sure to check out my website (www.TheFitnessSpot.net) or drop me an email at HeatherB@BeachbodyCoach.com.

Now, BRING IT!
