Get out of your comfort Zone!

Hey all.  What do you do to get out of your comfort Zone?? 
So recently I was with a friend and I really challenged her with a what I thought was a Fun, funky workout.  She thought it was too fast and too intense. 

We proceeded to talk about the workouts she usually does and which are her favorite.

I came to realize that is why so many people don't get to their goals. They don't go Beyond their Comfort zone!  You need to work all parts of the body to shape your body into the Body you WANT! 

One of the things to reach out of my comfort Zone, was to get Certified as a P90X Trainer.  I was not a super fit person. I'm a Mom that wanted to get healthy and wanted to help her family as well as others get Healthy also!
 
The Reason I Love P90X----  it works Every Part of Your Body!  This is why so many people from Obese to Slightly Over-weight people have done this Program and Have Achieved Results.  Sure some may need to stick with it for a lot longer than the 90 days.  Um, So what - they Did it and are so happy they did.  I met one of the Obese guys we've all seen on the Infomercials. He stayed with the plan and is now a happy and healthy husband and father.  He is now a role model for so many!  Wow- I can only hope to be a good example for my girls and my family and friends.

If you are stuck in a rut, Please reach out to me!  I am ready and willing to help you reach your goals!
I would Love to hear of Your Successes Also.

My First 5k

So last month My 10 year old daughter and I did our first 5k!
Yay  =)  we had a wonderful time.   We started out at 6am getting ready for our morning.
We were full of butterflies and excitement.  We drove to the round up spot and found our names to get registered.  We grabbed our T-shirts and found a spot to stand by and wait till start time.  

Finally the time came to get all lined up.  Everyone filled the street.  We found a couple spots for ourselves and anticipated the Start! 
Then off we were running in all the hustle and bustle!  Woohoo we were off to an excellent start! 
Yaxha, my daughter loves to run, she loves racing the kids at school.  She especially loves to beat the boys.  :)  She is a great sprinter but I found out she needs help staying at a steady pace.  But our first 5k was not the place to teach her that.  So we ran then walked then ran some more then walked! 

I was able to point out to her how the more seasoned runners were staying steady. They were not running Fast but a nice and even pace. It was great to see the variety of people out that beautiful Saturday morning.  We saw older ones and very young ones, Mom's pushing baby's in strollers and couples motivating each other along.  We enjoyed it so much we are determined to do more.

I love that I can share my love of health and fitness with my family.

What type of fitness do you do with your Family??
