Be The First To Get The New Program PIYO!

You may have heard about this new program called PiYo. This is Chalene Johnson's (Creator of Turbo Jam, Turbo Fire & Chalean Extreme) newest program that will be released today!!! When I first heard about this new workout, I though the name sounded a little funny, until I broke it down.....

 Pi (Pilates) + Yo (Yoga) = PiYo....then it made sense to me!  This program will use YOUR body to make your body stronger! I have always loved cardio but recently have been mixing it up by adding weight lifting into my routine. I love it! I feel stronger by the day. So, I'm super pumped that this program is going to increase my flexibility. When I was younger I was super flexible (weren't we all) but that has decreased with age, so I cannot wait to see where this takes me (and hopefully you)!

 

 

 

So what is PiYo???

 

 PiYo focuses on building strength, endurance and flexibility by mixing yoga and pilates together. The whole program is low-impact and requires nothing but YOU! No weights or bands, it uses your own body weight to sculpt you into something amazing! No jumping, just burning tons of calories! If you have ever done pilates or yoga before, be prepared that you WILL sweat and you will see results!

 

 

Who is this workout program good for??

 

If you are aiming to increase you flexibility and strength this program will be perfect! There is a modifier on screen to follow at all times, so your current fitness level does not matter. Anyone can start with this! Which is great because I am not the greatest at either pilates or yoga! I will be starting a Beta Test Group for PiYo on July 7th. We will work day by day together, encourage one another and hold each other accountable. If this sounds like something you would be interested in learning more about.. shoot me a message or find me on Facebook!

Strength Training to lose fat!?!

Strength Training and Lifting Weights

Muscles are an amazing part of our bodies! They constantly burn calories and fight fat even after you are done working out! It is recommended to add some kind of strength training into your workout routine 2-3 times a week. When this is done on a consistent basis, you will begin to see changes.  Muscles take up less space than fat, and the benefits are crazy!

Strength training:

Make bones stronger--by increasing bone density and reducing the risk of osteoporosis and making you less susceptible to fractures.

Help Control weight--Muscle burns more calories at rest than fat does, therefore making your metabolic rate higher. The more toned you are, the easier it will be to control your weight.

Boost your stamina--You wont get tired as easily. Things you do on a daily basis will slowly start to feel      easier as you do them. Ex...not feeling out of breath or have tired legs after walking up the stairs.

Help manage chronic conditions-- By decreasing some of the signs and symptoms of conditions such back pain, arthritis, heart disease, diabetes and obesity

Sleep Improvement- It has been found that those with more muscle mass tend to fall asleep more quickly, 

   awaken less, and sleep longer. 

Confession time!! Just a few years back I never did any type of strength training. I was the girl who would go to the gym and do an hour of cardio. I just never knew! But over the last few weeks, I have seen the benefits of adding in some lifting into my routine. I can feel myself getting stronger each day. One of the reasons that I love Brazil Butt Lift so much is that they incorporate strength training right into the schedule! To be honest, I have learned to the the "burn". 

I hope you learned something you can apply to your life by reading this. I would love to hear from you, contact me anytime and I would love to chat!!!
