Working Out Pays Off
If you have been following this blog you know that I have been attending boot camp faithfully daily and on a regular basis since October 2012. You also am up to date that I do Essence of Vitality on a regular basis and am about to start on my 4th bottle. It gives me energy, mental clarity and helps clean out the gut where diseases form. ...
Back In The Saddle – SOF Boot Camp, Week 3, Day 3
I must be a glutton for punishment. I am signed BACK up for boot camp and we just completed week 3 of a 4-week 1-hour session. This week was BRUTAL. I can't lie. We did more sprints, mile runs, jumping jacks, 1000 abs, squats, lunges, did I say jumping jacks than any top fit athlete, let alone a regular every day Joan like ME has gotten ...
Bootcamp Season #2 Session 12
Thursday - SUCCESS DAY!
Yes folks! I finally completed the minute drill within the MINUTE LIMIT!!! What is a minute drill you ask? It is a sprint drill where you run between 2 baselines 15 times all within a minute. They tell you, if you haven't hit at least the 7th drill by 30 seconds you are going to struggle to make all 15 within the ...
Girl on Fire #Workout
Ya'll...I did something I do not ordinary do. I did an evening workout on Monday! I am usually so tired from the rigors of the day I can't usually squeak out an evening workout but I made some promises to some acquaintances of my son's pee wee football league. My boot camp had a free session this Monday so I went in the evening to particip...
Bootcamp Season #2 Sessions 8&9
Wednesday
What I gained in those 2 days off this week I expended in energy at boot camp on Wednesday and Thursday! Those two days were no joke. But I was determined. I went to bed late but was determined to get at least 6 hours of sleep. Did not happen. I got up anyway. My regular partner in crime stayed in bed and skipped this ...
Bootcamp Season #2 Session 7
Hi everybody!!! I hope everyone had a productive and ACTIVE weekend! I know I did. I actually did the online workout prescribed by the SOF boot camp and did pretty good. It included 10, 10M sprints which I did on the treadmill at 9 mph. Clearly I need to amp that up to 10 mph because my sprints this morning were still short. But I am ...
Bootcamp Season #2 Session 4&6
Much like the hurricane - this week is a BLUR with stiff bodies left in its wake. I did not attend the MOnday morning session even though they still held it at 5:30 am because I just did not want to risk it. I felt I could work out at home - which I did not. Tuesday I ran for 35 minutes with sprint drills and did 100 squats due to an online ...
When You Say You Are In Beast Mode You Betta Mean It
Beast mode is a term that should not be thrown around lightly. There is a lot of responsibility that comes with that term. I am finding OUT! I committed to boot camp 3 days a week which comes with 3 days worth of online workouts and working with my trainer 2 days a week. Going back to back M-F and Saturday is SERIOUS BUSINESS!
I made it ...
Bootcamp Season #2 Session 4&5

Chicken Wing
I actually set a goal for myself. Starting Wednesday I will be working out 5 days a week every week for the next four weeks. Why? Because I feel like I need to turn it up and get into BEAST MODE!
This is my chicken wing.
I want more definition in the shoulder, bicep and tricep. My trainer went up on the weights to 20 lb bicep curls and ...
Monte Sanders Optimum Total Body Boot Camp
Who has participated in a fitness boot camp? I have never done it and am quite intrigued by the idea. As many of you know I work out with a trainer 2 times a week and have been doing so well over 14 months. Every now and again I feel like I need and/or want an additional challenge. Not saying my workouts are challenging - but I like to ...
