Hi all……
Well Karen has finished her 2nd week on her new program, and, although it is hard, she is rising to the challenge!
Her business partner Janice came over last week to take some pictures of Karen working her butt off. They are also taking pictures of all the other business participants, and are going to be doing some video fairly soon. Karen can use the makeup skills she has learned from Mary Kay to make sure she looks beautiful for her movie debut!
She’s doing great , and working hard, and she’s reallllly fun to work with!

Well, time for another Blog entry!
Alison has had me on my new program for 3 weeks now. I LOVE IT!!!
At first I thought there is no way I could do the circuit once, but I have already worked up to going through it twice in my hour work out. I always start on the treadmill for a 20 minute cardio….complete with hills and moving at 4.0 mph.
Then Alison gets me right into the more advanced exericises that are not only a great challenge, but
feel so good when I am finished them.
What a great coach Alison is!! I love the way she always counts down how many more presses or squats I need to do, & when she sees me straining she really encourages me to finish my set of 15. Alison has a way with words & really helps me to believe in myself that I can Do It, & I REALLY CAN!!
Alison is always checking my posture & positioning when I am lifting the weights or doing leg squats to ensure I am not straining my neck or lower back. She will use her hands on my shoulders or arms to keep them in the correct position. She has taught me the correct alignment for every exercise
& I now realise how often when I did try lifting weights in the past, that I was not getting the full benefits from my work out.
Alison still has me doing Jumping Jacks & skipping & like her newsletter says, it is a great work out (as much as I hate to admit it…I know I will be buying myself a skipping rope to keep my legs in shape!!)
Thanks Alison!!!
