Legs in the Morning and Cardio in the Evening
21 October 07 02:45 PM | Trish | with no comments

I haven’t done this in awhile, but I split my routine today because I woke up at the crack of dawn and couldn’t go back to sleep. All I had time to do was knock one or the other out and since my weights routines are so intense I decided I should do it...

Sunday and It’s a New Week
21 October 07 02:42 PM | Trish | with no comments

The definition is starting to pop on my upper body. Legs are looking better, but with my loose skin they may always be a mess. I’m very happy with my upper body though. Looks like the new training and eating is really working. I took off yesterday. Business...

Listen to Your Body When You Diet and Exercise
21 October 07 02:41 PM | Trish | with no comments

Today I woke up sort of sore and just feeling a little sluggish. After coffee and breakfast I decided I had too much to do today to try and force a huge leg workout and cardio session that would likely leave me washed out for the rest of the day. Using...

Tuesday - Awesome Arm Workout

For all of us ladies who carry our weight in our lower half, working your upper body can be a great way to “reshape your body.” Although you can’t spot reduce, you can build out the areas of your body that are naturally leaner so that the eye is drawn...

Mixing It Up With a Full Body Cardio Routine
21 October 07 02:39 PM | Trish | with no comments

Today I met with my personal trainer and I gave him two options: we could do a full body cardio routine inspired by Phat Camp and exercises inserted by me or do my scheduled chest routine. We opted for the full body routine. These types of workouts are...

Leg Strength…It’s a Good Thing
21 October 07 02:39 PM | Trish | with no comments

Today I did my leg routine and a little cardio afterward for a cool down. Legs are one of those body parts that I feel you should work hard and if you work them hard enough you shouldn’t have a lot left over for cardio. Sometimes I will try to blow them...

My Arm Workout…Not a Creative Title
21 October 07 02:33 PM | Trish | with no comments

Today I couldn’t think of anything nifty to start off the post. I think I’m just exhausted and sitting in Panera with the sweet smells of breads and pastries is about all I can freaking handle! It was arm day and I had to hustle through the workout to...

Working Out ALL DAY…or so it seems
21 October 07 02:28 PM | Trish | with no comments

Today is one of those days where I’m so busy with work and life that I am squeezing it all in when I can. Many of us forget that a workout doesn’t have to be XXX amount of time at X o’clock. It can be thrown at your body all day in shorter bouts with...

One of the services I offer my online training clients is daily review and commentary of their food journals through the use of our member’s only discussion board. I teach them to eat clean and suggest small, liveable changes to their menus so that they...

It’s the start of another Phit-N-Phabulous week here at PNP. Clients are weighing in and losing fat, new exercise plans are starting, and some of us are trying a new eating style I designed over the last few weeks. It’s not earth shattering, but it is...

Seeing the Results of Your Weight Loss Efforts

How long before I can start seeing results of all my dieting and exercising? That is a great question and I wish I had a simple answer. It’s not terribly hard, but it does take a little explaining to get to the right answer. Seeing results can be misleading...
