I love my Team!!!

I just have to say that I really love being apart of Team BLUE because when I couldn't take part in group training because I had not been feeling well for the past few days (don't worry I am all better now!) they let me take the role of 2nd trainer and take pictures of them. It really cheered me up!! Thanks so much guys!!! Here are a few pictures from Team Blue's Group Training!! Enjoy!!

Dedication is vital!!

A little coordination is Key!! Way to go JULIE Week 2 BIGGEST LOSER!!

And the ability to laugh at yourself!!!

Don't be afraid to bear down to get the job done!!

A little explaining is needed for this one.. MJ brought her recorder for interviews and she keeps it in a bright blue bag.. She wanted to keep it safe so she gave it to Kevin to protect it.. and I was there to capture him with his pretty blue bag!!!

Keep up the great work Team BLUE!!!

game time....

GO TEAM BLUE!!

Everyone ready for another great week? Weekly workout with Kevin is less than a half hour away, and I am genuinely excited!

I felt good today, not so much the painful sore, but the sore that let me know that I did something.

Kevin sets up great circuits for us, and by the time we finish the last time through, I'm shot! I even tried to go hit racquetballs after the last workout. I had nothing...everything was spent.

Anyone else have trouble getting to sleep the evening after workouts? Any recommenations to take care of this? I hate being up till 11:30 wide awake and have to get up at 4:30! Not that I am complaining...but it's rough some days.

Everybody keep up the good work! My goal is to be able to run the bases in softball without passing out this year...oh yeah, and to keep putting em out! Driving the golf ball 300 consistantly would be nice too!

Rock on losers!

Taking that work out to the next level???

How do you take your work out to the next level?? Is the question that fellow TEAM BLUE member Jeremy and I were discussing while we were working out last night. Side note before I continue with my answer to this question. I am so proud of the other TEAM BLUE Members that I saw working-out last night!!! 5 out of 10 team members were there when I was there!! SO GREAT JOB GUYS!!



Now back to the answer that I came up with.. It's one thing to just take part in the group training sessions and do what is asked of us at a nice weight without really pushing ourselves to go to that next level. I am completely guilty of taking the lighter weight instead of the weight that I should be at... Or not doing those few extra jumping jacks or pushups which I know that my body can do but my mind is telling me that I don't have to do them because everyone else isn't doing them so why do I have to do them why should I work out harder than everyone else. This is why I should go that extra mile.. Because I am in control for how much weight that I lose and no one else.. And if I want to reach my goal than I have to go that extra mile...


Now that this is been going on for a couple weeks I am beginning to figure out that if I want to accomplish my weight loss goal than I have to have the confidence and trust myself to go to that extra step. Let's be honest I know that it's going to be harder to do the other exercises that are coming down the line and the idea of being really tight the next day but for me at least I need to get that out of my head and focus just on the exercises one at a time and not look ahead.. We are in charge of achieving our goals not the trainers.. They are there to help guide us to reach that goal but it is our selves that really have to commit and go to that next level in order to achieve our goals.


Starting tonight during my group workout I am going to take the heavier weight and go faster and longer on the other exercises.. Because I know that I can do it.. Now I am challenging anyone who is reading this too take your workout to the next level by bumping up the weight/ resistance on the exercises, going faster and longer on those jumping jacks and pushups or whatever you may be doing... Just believe in yourself!! Good Luck to all the teams!!


GO BLUE!!!
