MOTIVATION I wanted to share a clip of me during one of my fitness competition videos . . . Some of you may have seen it on facebook when I posted a few weeks ago.  This is a 2-minute routine to demonstrate strength, flexibility and endurance.  It reminded me of how determined I was, and I often replay this video whenever I need to motivate myself to get back on track.  Our lives are so busy that sometimes we put ourselves last.  You only get ONE body so do your best to reprioritize so that you squeeze in time for regular exercise and healthy meal planning.  Hope you enjoy the video, and give some thought to what motivates you . . . let us know if you need any help:  http://youtu.be/LoN8Qt_gzVo

 OUR LATEST TESTIMONIAL

Dear Hillarie & Mike:  Thank you so much for all you did to make our son’s 8th birthday celebration at !MPACT so much fun! You both did such a great job with the kids.  By getting to know and addressing each child by name, you made them feel welcome and special from the moment they came in the door.  We also appreciate the effort you made to coach and cheer on each and every one of them as they did each new exercise.  It’s that personal touch that makes !MPACT so unique.   We loved the fact that you kept them busy for just about every minute of the hour and a half, except, of course, when it was time to have an ice cream break and sing happy birthday.  It was great to see each and every kid actively engaged in such a vast variety of challenging physical fitness activities.  We have no doubt that every one of our party guests slept well that night!  Most importantly, we are sure that everyone had fun!  Thank you, Deanna & Anthony Cannatelli

PROTEIN POW(D)ER:  Many thanks to our pal, Martin, for turning us onto this website.  If you are searching for ways to incorporate a bit more protein in your diet, this website can help.  There are even some great recipes – including a recipe book on how to make healthy protein bars!  The website also has a special page to educate people about the various sources of protein powders (whey, casein, eggwhite, etc.).  Remember that incorporating more protein with low-glycemic carbs will get you lean and strong in no time at all.  At !MPACT Training, we continue our pledge to pass along info that can help you take your health and fitness to the next level. Also, if you’ve got kids who only eat carbs, maybe some of these delicious recipes is just what you need! Please take a moment to log on:  http://www.proteinpow.com
