I have ONE THING TO SAY, "I'm getting much better at Mountain Squats" =)
It's getting closer and closer to the end of my 22 Minute Hard Corps Challenge. My Dad and I have two more workouts, one of which is a make up workout from a previous week, but we are almost done =) It's been great hanging out with Tony Horton for 60 Days, but now it's time to workout with Autumn Calabrese, she's much prettier ha ha =)
Here's our workout accountability videos from Day 4 and 5 of Week 8:

The group will focus on creating a community and accountability channel to help people connect with other like-minded individuals.

Ok this is going to be a very short post ha ha, but I just wanted to share some good news with you and let you know that my pull up strength was ON POINT today!
Just to give you a quick story, I actually injured my elbow mountain biking a few years ago, and it would hurt so bad while doing any type of pull up movement. Before the injury, I was able to crank out about 28 strict pull ups, and my goal was to get at least 30, and then guess what happens =)
Anyways, since starting this challenge, I feel that my pull up strength is getting much better. I still want to stay safe because I would hate to re-injure my elbow, so I am just doing what I can. After I complete my 22 Minute Hard Corps Challenge, I will post a video on how many pull ups I can actually do, so I'm pretty excited about that. If I could hit 20, that would make me happy!
Anyways, lots of things to do (like EAT lol), so just wanted to share my workout accountability video, see you all tomorrow =)
Day 3, Week Eight - 22 Minute Hard Corps | Resistance 2
Do you enjoy Beachbody Workouts and Obstacle Course Racing? I just started a FREE Online Accountability Group on Facebook called "Beachbody OCR Fit", it's free to join, message me here if you would like to be added, see you soon! =)
I was feeling a bit under the weather today, but I did what I could. It's actually pretty tough for me to slack on my workouts, but here's the kicker...... I procrastinate a lot, so it may take me awhile to workout, but once I'm in, I am ready to kill it =)
I definitely find it to be more productive to workout earlier in the day because it leaves me a lot more time to go about my day and stick to my schedule when it comes to business tasks. My issue is that I will get so involved with my online coaching business, that I will actually pile on more tasks to delay my workout =) Anyone else do that?
BUT THAT'S ON MY LAZY DAYS!
On my good days, I somehow just wake up and automatically start my day, sometimes putting my shoes on before I eat breakfast secretly preparing for a morning run, and then later doing my workout shortly after.
I'm human. I'm not trying to impress anyone =). Staying fit and healthy is still a challenge for me on certain days, but what I've found to be very helpful is finding an accountability partner who will keep me in check. I'm so blessed that my father decided to do this 22 Minute Hard Corps Challenge with me, because everyday he asks me, "what's our workout for today?", and something simple as that really keeps me on my toes. Do you have someone to keep you accountable?

Today's workout was Cardio 3 + Core 2, and my Dad and I recorded our last round of the Cardio 3 workout on Facebook LIVE, so that is what I'll be sharing on this post =)
Anyways, thanks for following my fitness journey, and if you are ready to start your own journey, I'd love to help you. I work with all fitness levels and goals, so shoot me a message here, and I'll chat with you soon =)
Day 2, Week Eight - 22 Minute Hard Corps | Cardio 3
So I'm finally on WEEK 8 of my 22 Minute Hard Corps Challenge with my Dad, and it's hard to believe that we're almost done! We actually missed one workout last week, so we will be adding the last workout this Sunday, and that will be our last workout, and when we will officially have completed this 60 Day Challenge =)
I filmed an obstacle course race this past Saturday, and I was planning to do my missed workout on Sunday, but I was so BEAT TIRED that I didn't get it done, so I'll add it to the end of the week =). I'll share the obstacle racing video below from the Mud Titan 6 event which was held about 30 minutes outside of Tampa. It was a great local race organized by some very amazing people.

Getting my little workout in before I film the Mud Titan 6 race the next day! (I did this workout on 8-26-16) I ended up being really lazy and not wanting to go down to the hotel gym, so I did my workout in my room. It was pretty tight, but still doable =)
Today's workout was Resistance 3, which is the only resistance workout that requires no pull-ups. I think the most challenging move on this workout is the MOUNTAIN SQUATS, they get me every single time, and there are a ton of reps! It's definitely a great full body move which targets your core, legs, arms and shoulders. It's the ones you hate that will make you stronger!
Here's my 22 Minute Hard Corps accountability workout video!
Day 5, Week Seven - 22 Minute Hard Corps | Resistance 3
After my workout, I attended an exclusive Diamond Beachbody Coach Team Dinner in Trinity, FL. It was an amazing event, and I ate pretty good. I did cheat a little and I know it isn't an excuse, but I'll have you know that I burnt the crap out of those calories at the Mud Titan 6 Race the next morning, I'll post the race video that I created in the next post =)
Here are some photos from the Diamond Coach Dinner event which was hosted at my friend and Million Dollar Coach Earner Seay's house.

The 22 Minute Hard Corps Workouts are challenging enough, let alone posting a video and blog of each workout, but I'm pretty happy that I'm almost done =) Just a little over one week left, and my Dad and I will have completed 60 days of this challenge.
What's next? Well, I think we are leaning more towards the 21 Day Fix Extreme Challenge. I've been missing some good ole classic weight-lifting, and although 21DFX is not classic lifting, it will involve a WEE_BIT more weights than 22 Minute Hard Corps, so that's good enough for me =) I will probably do a P90X3/Body Beast Hybrid Workout after 21 Day Fix Extreme, but we shall see!
I believe in bringing back the strong man mentality from the past,
technology has made us weak, it's time to #SpartanUp and
Just a little summary on how I've been feeling on week 7. My core is definitely getting much stronger, and what I mean by that is I am able to complete more reps than usual without getting burned out or tired. Yesterday was a good example when I was doing Cardio 3 + Core 2. My accountability partner Steven complimented me and told me that he noticed my improvement in my core exercises, so that confirmed everything for me, other than what I've been feeling.
This past few days, I've been in Tampa visiting my daughter so I haven't been able to workout with my Dad, but he's been sending me his workout accountability pics, so yes, he's still killing it!
On this post, I will be sharing bot of my Day 3 and Day 4 accountability videos, so here they are =)
Day 3, Week Seven - 22 Minute Hard Corps | Resistance 1
Day 4, Week Seven - 22 Minute Hard Corps | Cardio 3 + Core 2
And of course, here are my Dad's workout accountability photos from Day 3 and 4, Week 7. I am so very proud of him for staying consistent even though I am not able to workout with him. Not only is he committed to his workouts, he's been staying on point with his nutrition and drinking his Shakeology everyday =)
