Is Body by Blue for you?

I have had so much fun working with several ladies that have become Body by Blue team members.  You may have seen a few of their post on facebook.  They all have experienced success!  They are learning how to eat clean, and train hard to achieve the level of health they are looking for, and the body they want. 

What is the Body by Blue program?

 It's a 6-18 week program that includes 3 different phases. Each week there are 5 different workouts.  Each work out is full body, with an emphasis on a major muscle group.  It's high intensity is addicting.  You will see muscle definition in places you never thought you could. For Body by Blue,  I used strategically placed compound movements in a targeted metabolic resistance training program.  It will challenge you, no matter what your fitness level.  I customize it to you.  I have women at all fitness levels, from post baby moms trying to loose the baby weight, to women just trying to build muscle while leaning out.

Example:

Here is the 1st circuit of 4 from Body by Blue, Day 1 LEGS.  Give this a try!

Walking lunges 10 each leg

Push up w/burpee  10

Squat to row  10

Rest 45 sec. and repeat for 3 sets

If you are frustrated with your weight and are not seeing the results you want, I can help you!  It's all in training with weight the correct way, and how you fuel your body.  Food is KEY!  Starving yourself is not an option.  I will show you how to make healthier choices that will give you the healthy body you are looking for.

Here are a few women who have already seen benefits from the Body by Blue program.  They have been awesome to work with, and I'm so excited they are reaching their goals!

My first Body by Blue experience:

I started the 4-week Body by Blue program just 2 months after having baby #3 via c-section. It was a good thing I was so excited and determined to try out the program, because the first hurdle came when I had to get dressed for the gym. I felt sexy as ever in a baggy t-shirt to hide the skin that didn't get the “baby is out” memo, and loose pants that say, “I work out”...yea, not so much! But, I'd done this before and I knew it wouldn't get better until I put in a little sweat, okay, a lot of sweat! I completed day 1 and immediately knew, this program is going to kick my trash! That's a good thing! Bodies like Amy's don't come from taking it easy! I managed to make it through week 1 and was rejuvenated by the results; I'd lost about 4 lbs, and 2''! I was feeling brave enough to wear clothes that really do say, “I work out!”. After weeks 2 and 3 I was feeling brave enough to try on some pre-pregnancy jeans that I love, and they fit – not perfectly, but they fit! This really gave me the final push to give it my all in week 4! I found that I had doubled the weight on most exercises than when I first started in week 1 and was taking fewer or no breaks other than between circuits. In just 3 weeks I'd managed to increase my workout weight by 100%!

My final results after just 4 weeks on Body by Blue show that I've lost 3 ½'', 6 lbs, 2% body fat, and 1 ½ dress sizes! But what I've noticed more is my endurance and strength levels (and my arms and shoulders are looking pretty hot too!). I feel great and that means I've set additional goals, including my first triathlon in just 11 short weeks -less than 6 months after having baby #3! I have lofty fitness goals in mind that surpass even my pre-baby body and I'm committed and determined to see them realized! If I didn't feel this good after only working out for 1 month, I don't think I'd be so excited and ambitious with my fitness goals! Thank you Body by Blue, and thank you Amy for the never-ending support and encouragement!

I am a mother of 4 and always on the go. I started Body By Blue when my newest edition was 1 month old. Its never fun to look in the mirror after having a baby and trying to wrap your head around how in the heck you are going to lose this baby weight with 4 crazy kiddos! Amy has made a workout for me to do at home. (No gym membership and carting my 4 kids around) She also made a meal plan for me that allows enough calories for me to continue to nurse but to also lose weight. This took a lot of dedication for me but I was SO ready to lose this baby weight. Change happened immediately!
My little guy is now 3 months old and I am 2 pounds away from my pre-baby weight. In 2 months, I have lost 12 pounds, 3 inches in my waist, 3 inches in my hips, and 2 inches in my thighs. My arms are more defined than they have ever been! With my cRaZy life, Amy has made this work for me. I am hoping to continue to lose weight after I reach my pre-baby weight and get in the best shape of my life.
I have learned so many cool exercises and how to use that stability ball... that had been collecting dust in storage. I have learned that I feel so much better when I eat the right foods. As much as I love my "cheat meals," I can tell a huge difference in how I feel after I eat those yummy cheese fries I had been craving all week. My stomach hurts and I feel bloated. Its a nice little reminder that that stuff isn't good for me.

I have been training with Amy for the 3rd week now. First of all, I have been really impressed with how much time she has devoted to me. We live in different states, but that hasn't changed how dedicated she is to helping me reach my fitness goals. She has sent me a detailed workout & nutrition plan & is always available for any questions or concerns I have. My main goal is to build muscle and she has been so great in helping me find the right balance in my diet to achieve my goals. So far I have noticed that in most (if not all) of my workouts I am gradually lifting heavier and heavier weights as each week goes by which proves I am gaining that strength I desire.
I have thoroughly enjoyed her workouts! They are never boring. The time in the gym flies by because her workouts are fun, challenging and include a variety of moves to keep from ever getting bored. I would certainly recommend Amy to anyone looking for a personal trainer. She knows her stuff!

Everyone is different.  My goal is to get you to meet your goals. That is why I customize the Body by Blue program specifically for you.  It can be done at your gym or even in the comfort of your own home.  I can show you how to achieve the healthy body you deserve.

100 "LIKES"

I have reached 100 Facebook page "likes"! I'm pretty excited about this and to say Thank you, I'm posting a FREE work out! Most of you who voted wanted a FULL BODY work out and that is what you are going to get.  I'm going to cheat a little and give you a full body work out I designed with an emphasis on the glutes.  This work out is a 1 day work out you can use to burn fat and get tone.  There are 4 circuits with 3 exercises.  You will perform each circuit 3 times before moving on to the next circuit. Now, to keep you in fat burning mode you will only rest when all 3 exercises are complete.  You will rest 45-60 seconds and then repeat the circuit until you have completed it 3 times. Here is what it looks like:

Dead lifts 3 sets 10 reps
Stability ball chest press 3 sets of 10 reps
Inverted row 3 sets of 10 reps

Stability ball leg curl  3 sets 10 reps
Push press to calf raises  3 sets 10 reps
Stability ball lying pull overs  3 sets  10 reps

Stability ball hip raises  3sets 10 reps
Reverse lunge to curl  3 sets 10 reps
Stability ball skull crushers  3 sets 10 reps

Reverse hip raises  3sets 10 reps
Med. ball double crunch  3 sets 10 reps
Plank w/ alternating hip extension  3sets of 10 reps

Now, this is 1 day I pulled from a 5 day work out program that I designed for a client in California.  She is a few week into it and LOVES it so far.  You will all hear from her very soon.  If you are interested in the rest of this program, let me know.  I will NOT be posting the remainder of this program.

Because I appreciate ALL of your support, I'm going to post the demonstration videos that go with it.  Remember, this is only 1 day of a 5 day program. Only doing this work out will result in a muscle imbalance.  It is full body, but with an emphasis on the glutes.  You should be able to FEEL that. :)

Let me know what you think! This is my pride and joy right now...I really hope you enjoy it!

As for a personal update:  I'm FINALLY taking my CPR class on Monday and that will enable to FINALLY take the CPT exam! WHOOT WHOOT! I'm excited to make this official.  This is my passion and I'm so blessed to be able to share it with you. 

Thank you again!

Full body work out!

The audio on this is hard to hear...

This is a descending pyramid circuit.You will start with 10 reps each exercise. Then rest for 20 seconds and repeat with 9 reps each exercise. Then rest for 20 seconds and repeat with 7 reps each exercise. You will continue until you work your way down to 1 rep each exercise. You will then rest 60 seconds and REPEAT! The exercises are: bent over dumbbell row, body squats, push ups, forward lunges and floor sit ups.

You can do this at home or in the gym. You can add this to the tail end of a work out, or add it to your cardio days. It will get your heart rate up and work all the major muscles in your body. Warning: ITS TOUGH! 

For those of you who need to start on your knees for push ups, I have demonstrated the CORRECT way to do them. Notice there is a straight line from my knee all the way up to my shoulder. Too many make the mistake and bend at the waist. Do as many as you can not on your knees first. You will  be able to build the strength you need to get off your knees. Try it!

If there is something you want to see or hear my opinion on...let me know! I'm up for ideas.
