Summer berries and the fight to stay fit - 13abc.com Toledo (OH) News, Weather and Sports


Spent time with Rebecca on her syndicated show Full Plate and we had a lot of fun and shared some good advice about fighting to stay fit. We also talked a bit about my new book "AM Fight Club: The Fight to Stay Fit."

Click the link below and watch the show, and click below the book cover to read an excerpt from my book.

Is Multitasking Real?




Multi-tasking isn’t just a word we toss around anymore— it’s now a very real way of life!  Without it, many things would go undone. But with it, we have the chance to use our time efficiently and productively. Even when it comes to meeting our physical fitness needs!
As the owner and operator of three separate businesses, I have to multi-task every single day! Since one of my jobs is to inspire you to be healthier, I have a few tips on how to infuse your everyday “To-Do List” with several mini, but mighty, workout moves. Use these simple suggestions and you’ll not only cross items off your chore list, you’ll be on your way to a fitter, more-fabulous, YOU!
First off, the next time you’re wiping down your countertops, use small circular motions, moving your arms forward and back. Think about igniting your core as you bend to reach across the surface, pressing your dishrag down with intention and force. Bam! Your arms just received a workout, and your tummy just became a little bit tighter!
Next, re-think your chore of vacuuming floors! It can be about more than just achieving lint-free carpet! Add in leg lunges every time you push the handle forward, moving from one side of the room to the other. Turn and repeat, back to the other side, lunging on your other leg! Bam, Bam! Two tasks done for the price of one! Your legs shape up right along with your floors!
No matter what you do, remember to tighten your abs, ignite your core. Squat, lift, twist, and turn. Use your body to its fullest potential, and before you know it, you’ll become a “clean, mean, fightin’ machine!”

Hurts So Good



Have you ever had those times after a great workout and your body hurts so freaking bad and you wonder why. It's because lactate, or lactic acid as it is also called, is produced when exercising anaerobically. Anaerobic exercises/workouts are those where your body is working at rate higher than it can supply and absorb oxygen to the muscles and completely break down the glucose in your body.


Just because you hurt don't give up on the working out --Remember  Exercise is a reward not a Punishment!
