We are currently burning off our turkey in my morning boot camp class!  I know it has been a few days since that turkey dinner:)  According to ACE (American Counsel on Exercise) the average American eats a 3000 calorie turkey dinner on Thanksgiving Day.

Yes, that is the Week 4 Challenge!!!  If you do 10 sets of the Capitol Hill Stairs on 10th AVE E and E Blaine St that would be 2930.....you'd be more than half way there!!!

Seriously, Seattle is the stair city.....they are everywhere.....Queen Anne, Capitol Hill, Ravenna, Lake Washington, Leschi, UW, your house, your office building, school, your Reebok Step.

I am writing to you from Denver Colorado….where we are watching the Women’s Final Four Basketball Tournament!  Did I mention that we were on TV (only because we sat in front of Condoleezza Rice….I thought maybe it was my bright yellow shirt and my sunny personality). That doesn’t mean I am not thinking about your fitness!!!!  Are you ready for the WEEK 3 CHALLENGE??

In week 3 our challenge is to get 5 cups of Veggies and Fruits per day-

Preferably 3 cups of veggies and 2 cups of fruits.

We all want a nice booty, right?

Incorporate the following best backside exercises in your regular strength routine and you'll burn fat, shape and firm your booty, sculpt surrounding muscle groups, and rev up your metabolism.

1. Kettlebell Swings

Kettlebell swings combine strength and cardio training to redefine your backside.

OK….I have been thinking about kids lately…..why???!!! Well I am adopting a little girl from Nepal, her name will be Orion Kirchoff and it has been a long 2 and ½ years of waiting….but I am so excited!
So with kids in mind and the summer weather to enjoy, outdoor play seems like a great topic to talk about.
