Staying on Track and updates..

How's your week going? Are you so emerged in work, you've already made a dozen excuses how you don't have time to work out, have been eating badly, or are just too tired to care?? Stop!!! Don't let yourself get there. So you can't work out the way you planned to during the week..It doesn't mean this give you any right to overindulge on all that junk! Most of you are at desk jobs, so get up walk around, up and down the stairs, to and from work, but just try to stay active somehow!

If on the other hand, you're just being plain lazy...who's to blame when you start gaining all the fall/winter weight? Learn to balance your social life with your work, health and fitness. Schedule it in, plan your meals, and give your mind and body a rest when you really need it! Being overexhausted and overtraining won't help either. But why are you so tired? Did you eat your healthy 5-6 meals today? Did you get enough rest? Is your immune system lacking? Take your vitamins? Burnt out? Sometimes you need to take a step back and re-evaluate what you need to sacrifice and what you need to incorporate. We are all busy New Yorkers!! If staying in shape and feeling good in your mind, body and soul is important to you, then make the time!

I'm always running around like a madwoman but I don't feel guilty on the days I am not physically at the gym. You can burn enough calories by being on your feet all day and not being a couch potato. I will watch my eating more carefully that though. On other days, I like to enjoy my "scheduled" social brunches, dinners, outings, etc.
Don't you just feel better when you eat better? Cut out all that processed garbage and start incorporating veggies, lean protein, whole grains, drink more water.

It's really simple...Don't make it harder than what it is!

In the meantime, bootcamp schedule is now officially:

Central Park Tuesday and Thursdays: 600p & 700p
West Side Kettlebells: 900a Beginner, 10a Advanced

You must reserve with me in order to guarantee a spot.

Also, join me in the Capoeira Festival this Sat @5pm. If you've never experienced capoeira before (which I've been practicing for a few years), you need to come uptown and see it for yourself! There will be a lot of great capoeiristas performing. Details here: http://en.brazilny.org/index.php?/consulado/t_c/
