What's SUP? Stand Up Paddle Boarding on Lake Las Vegas

Last weekend, my friend Dennis and I started the St. Patrick's Day Holiday Weekend by celebrating the holiday and amazing weather by going out to the Westin in Lake Las Vegas to paddle board with Kathy at Paddle to the Core, www.SUPLV.com.

30 Day Plank Challenge

30 DAY PLANK CHALLENGE

For this month's challenge group, I'm basing it on the  21 Day Fix workouts and meal plans and adding some fun to it. This 30 day plank challenge is a perfect addition to this month's challenge to tone up and boost our core muscles to the max.


The plank challenge from 30dayfitnesschallenges.com is their most popular 30 day fitness challenge. It's been taken by over 100,000 people over the past 12 months, so why not add it to our group?!

19 Reasons Why Working Out At Home is Better Than The Gym

19 Reasons Why Working Out At Home is Better Than The Gym

1.  I can workout anytime I want - I'm not restricted to gym hours, trainer availability, or class schedules. My trainer is ready at the push of a button. I just push "play".

2.  I don't have to leave my house and go out in the cold or heat.

3.  It doesn't matter what I look like. I can workout in my underwear and not be judged, have smeared or no makeup, clothes that don't match, no shoes, whatever I feel like wearing (or not wearing...).

4.  I don't have to worry about someone else's germs on equipment. Ewwww. Flu season…'nuff said.

5.  I don’t have to deal with traffic or trying to find a parking spot.

6.  No one tries to talk to me while I'm trying to get my sweat on.

7.  My iPhone won't be stolen. (Yes, this happened to me and it sucks)

8.  I don’t have to wait for a machine or equipment.

9.  The classes are never full.

10. I don't have to deal with a locker. Or forgetting to bring my lock, headphones, towel, water, shoes, etc.

11. I don't have any weird or old people walking around naked while I'm in the bathroom.

12.  I can be uncoordinated, make weird faces, be comfortable, laugh at myself, and I won't end up on a YouTube fail video...

13. It costs me less than a gym membership and I don't have a contract.

14. My friends can join me at anytime.

15. I'm done, from start to finish, in about 25-45 minutes compared to AT LEAST 2 hours going to the gym: driving there and parking, checking in, getting my locker, working out, realizing I left my headphones in my backpack, going back to my locker, working out, waiting for equipment, showering and getting ready (depending on the day), buying a protein smoothie, and driving home.

16. I have less laundry. (see #3)

17.  I have the best workout partner. My dog, who usually lays on my yoga mat and wants to cuddle at some point - giving me a breather.

18. I can't bring my dog to the gym.

19.  When I’m done, I can sprawl on the floor and lay there as long as I’d like. This is really frowned upon at the gym. Plus, the gym floor is gross and I don't recommend laying on their floor.

21 DAY FIX makes losing weight so simple…you never have to diet again.

I'm in the midst of the 21 DAY FIX and I've learned so much!  Before starting 21 DAY FIX, I thought I knew exactly how big a portion size was. I was close, but not close enough, which explained why I wasn't dropping any weight. I started drinking Shakeology every morning and following the 21 DAY FIX eating plan and I've lost 8 pounds in about 2 weeks (I may have slacked on a day or two, but we won't talk about that...) and an increase in energy and mood.

And now there's the highly anticipated 21 DAY FIX EXTREME!

At-Home PiYo Workout to Stretch, Sculpt, and Strengthen

At-Home PiYo Workout to Stretch, Sculpt, and Strengthen
From Shape Magazine, by  Caitlin Carlson

Get the most out for your exercise bucks with a high-intensity, low-impact routine that combines Pilates, yoga, strength training, and cardio.

When you're overwhelmed, it's hard to fine time to squeeze in a workout session into your already overpacked scheduled—even though you know any amount of physical activity can help you deal with both of those things. And nothing beats yoga when it comes to squashing down anxiety or stress, and an intense cardio or strength training routines to torch fat and rev your metabolism, so how do you fit it all in? This genius PiYo routine, created by trainer Chalene Johnson combines all of those elements, and gets the job done fast. The moves are inspired by both yoga and Pilates, and you use your own body for resistance, so you’ll build lean, fat-fighting muscle while getting a deep stretch. Plus, the short rest periods and quick pace mean there’s also a cardio component—so while you lengthen and tone your entire body and calm your mind, you’ll rev your heart rate to burn fat and calories. So if you’re looking to maximize what little time you have to get sweaty, this workout is for you.

How it works: Starting with the first exercise, complete 10 reps, then immediately move on to the second move without resting in between. Continue this pattern until you've finished all 6 exercises.

Rest for one minute. Then, repeat the entire circuit two more times for a total of three rounds

"Even I DON'T want to do an extreme workout all the time.
