I have a great walking workout to accelerate your results this week:

1. Clip on your Pedometer (don’t forget to use your lanyard. The lanyard is essential to use to prevent losing your pedometer).

2. Start off with any easy pace, making sure that you’re keeping your arms bent and moving.

3. Make sure to contract your abs, stride strong and now.…..

4. 10-minutes into your walk (your aerobic steps are now activated), do 1-minute of squats making sure you sink back on your hips, keeping your knees behind your toes and exhaling when lifting. When done.

5. Continue walking for another 5-minutes.

6. Stop for 1-minute for a set of Push-ups either against a wall, bench or on the grass if possible. When done, continue walking…yeah…feeling great!

7. Continue walking for 5-minutes increasing your intensity, either by walking faster or a jogging…oh yeah!

8. Slow down and for (you guessed it!) 1-minute Walking Lunges or Stationary Lunges

9. Now if your goal is 20-minutes of cardio end with a BIG FINISH by sprinting/jogging or running for 1 minute. Burning?..Oh yeah…Increased Calories…Definitely!

10. If you want to continue on change your walking with 1/5 combo (1 minute of walking/sprinting/running followed by 5 minutes of walking).

11. Make sure you cool down, followed by stretching. YEAH YOU DID IT!

If you have any questions for me, I’m now online for live chat support every Friday from 4:30 - 5:30 (pdt), so don’t hesitate to log on or email me.

Hi WalkingSpree Members!

TrainerLisa here with some fitness news that I hope you’ll use! You know, as a Personal Trainer I’ve trained just about every type of person you can think of (and some you haven’t):

The I’ll-Do-Whatever-It-Takes Exerciser

The Eager Exerciser

The I-Hate-Exercising Exerciser

The Excuse Exerciser

The I-Know-More-Than-You Exerciser

The I’ve-Tried-This-Before-And-Failed Exerciser

The I-Can’t-Do-This Exerciser

The Social-I’ve-Come-To Party-Exerciser

and of course the I’m-Trolling-For-Hot-Girls/Guys Exerciser!

Does this sound familiar? Recognize yourself in any of these types? If you do and it’s not the first 2 types, it’s time to do a mental attitude adjustment! We all have goals and dreams that we want to accomplish, the problem is that often we don’t know what to do or where to start. Even those of us in the Fitness Industry need support when we feel that we just can’t get our workouts done, we’re feeling tired, unappreciated…. trust me, every feeling you can name every Personal Trainer, and Group X Instructor has experienced it.

Now how do we stay motivated both for you our clients as well as for ourselves? We BELIEVE! WE BELIEVE Both in YOU and OURSELVES! We BELIEVE that we can make a difference! We BELIEVE that every person we come in contact will catch the fire within themselves and make a difference in their health, life, community and the world at large. We BELIEVE that when you feel good, you look MARVELOUS!

Believe it or not, we get really excited and energize when you meeting your goals. Your energy and enthusiasm is so contagious that it becomes a “domino” effect to everyone that you come in contact with! If you’re currently working out in a gym, but not getting the results that you want, please meet with one of the Certified Personal Trainers in your facility. If you’re not sure which Trainer you want, check them out with their clients and then schedule an appointment to discuss your goals and what they can do for you. Never settle for just any Trainer! Make sure that you and your Personal Trainer are a PERFECT FIT!

Now how does this tie in with you? Well here it is: With all this information, please keep in mind that your Coaches at WalkingSpree have many years in the Fitness Industry. We have an enormous amount of knowledge, skills and ideas just waiting for you, and best of all we’re already here for you! Keep that in mind when you need help or have questions on your workout or setting your fitness goals. Email your Coaches with all and any of your questions or concerns and get ready to make your fitness dreams your reality.

Until Next Time….Stay Strong and Keep Moving! Fitfully yours, LisaAka TrainerLisa
