Robbie's Birthday Present and My new friend:CLA500

Reduce body fat and support lean-muscle retention. This essential fatty acid helps your body do both. Get the most out of your workout! -www.amway.com/betterchoices4u 
Robbie and I cannot wait to pump-up our workouts with the help of this supplement. I am hoping to get toned and develop muscle definition. Robbie wants to bulk up so I will be taking less of the supplement. I will blog on how well it is working in a week or 2.

This is what we plan on stacking our work outs with  Rhodiola 110.

















Helps increase mental and physical performance. Research suggests that it may also shorten recovery time after exercise by improving your bodys stress response system. - www.amway.com/betterchoices4u 

 Robbie's dad has been stacking these products for about a week and has had killer work outs. The great thing about Rhodiola is that it increases your energy without making you gittery like other products out there. My cousin takes it before an exam because it helps her focus. Who wouldn't want an increase in energy and an increase in mental and physical performance?

Vitamins,Vitamins,Vitamins

Recently I learned that if you are insufficient of certain vitamins and minerals your body cannot properly work, and it can be much harder to lose weight. I am an Independent Business Owner so it was an obvious decision for me to invest in several vitamins.
My Perfect Vitamins:







Some background information on Nutrilite: They are the leading vitamin and supplement company in the world. Nutrilite has been helping people lead healthier lives since 1934. They own organic farms in Mexico, California, Washington state, and Brazil. Nutrilite is the only company who makes a multivitamin/multimineral and also phytonutrients. Phytonutrients are the natural nutrients found in plants. Although some of the vitamins pictured above can be up to $30, they will last 2 to 3 months.

Jillian Micheals!!!

Ok, so lately I have been trying to work out like a mad person and watch my diet because I'm ready for killer results. I have also been thinking that if I document my workouts and results in my blog it would make me more accountable. Granted, I am not so certain anyone reads my blog, but in case there is a small chance that someone may track my status I am prepared to blog about it and maybe if I am that confident in my results I may begin to track pictures. BUT NO PROMISES ON THAT ONE!

2 DVDs I am currently obsessed with:
Jillian Micheals' Yoga Meltdown and also Jillian Micheals' No More Trouble Zones

I love yoga but also love pilates and this is an awesome combo. It focuses more on yoga moves but fast paced. It is 30 minutes which is perfect because you are stretching and using your own body weight which Jillian says is the perfect way to blast fat because you do not want to build muscle over fat but rather tone your muscles. I am sweating and feeling great by the end of the dvd and because of all of the plank poses and glute exercises I feel so sore, and it's awesome!

Now the No More Trouble Zones focuses on the Muffin top, saddle bags, and the wobbly underarms. I love this! Every area that a woman is self conscious of. It is 40 minutes long and will make you very sore! It works in quick circuits and I personally use 3 pound weights and wouldn't recommend using more then 5 pounds.

Robbie and I are also loving the P90X dvds. The Jillian DVDs are only 9 bucks and I love that you can get a killer work out at home and not have to get a gym membership or expensive equipment. Although, the gym is nice to have.
