30 Day Challenge

 

I’ve been running a 30 day challenge on my Facebook page, but decided to share it here as well!  It is a simple, short workout routine that can be fit into any part of your day.  It shouldn’t take more than 5 minutes to complete and if you haven’t been working out, then it is a great place to start.  I highly encourage you to start on a healthy eating plan to reign in your eating habits and start with this simple, yet effect workout plan.  I’ll start with the first 5 days in this post and then add 5 more days each week.

 

Day 1 – 50 Crunches and 2x 60 second plank hold:

 

 

Day 2 – 100 Bicycle crunches and 2x 30 second plank hold:

Bicycle crunch & Plank Hold

 

Day 3 – 50 Burpees and 50 Kick Down Crunches:

How to do a kick down crunch:
1. Lay on your back on a mat with your hands on your side. (Alternate version: You can do this on the bench holding the top of the bench with your hands)
2. Lift legs 90 degrees from your body while keeping your legs straight.
3. Then using your core lift your hips off the ground, rolling your spine up.
4. Hold this position briefly.
5. Lower hips back to the ground.
6. Lower your legs back to the starting position.
7. Repeat.)

Day 4 – 200 Crunches and 100 Skater Slides:

Day 5 – 100 High Knees and 75 Russian Twists:

There are also so great Beachbody programs on sale during the month of May if you are in need of more in depth workouts and complete nutrition plan:

No Foolin’ Here

It actually feels like spring where I am today!  Hoping that it stays that way!  I wanted to share the April Specials with you, because my FAVORITE program is on sale for the month of April!  And I want to extend the invite to join my No Foolin’ Here Challenge Group that started today.  This Challenge Group is focused on nutrition and workouts with group support and accountability to help folks reach their health goals for Summer 2014.  We all have different goals.  My goals include being healthy, getting back some muscle definition and sporting my bathing suit with confidence!

I previously posted a special incentive for the first male and female that purchased the T25 Challenge Pack and I’m extending that offer to ANYONE who orders a T25 Challenge Pack from me in the month of April.  Who doesn’t like a little bit of workout swag?  There are tanks and tees in the Beachbody shop!

t25_cp_promo_header

 

I’ve stated in another post, that T25 is my favorite workout program.  It has the intensity of Insanity but in only 25 minutes!  I would love to help you reach your goals in 25 minutes a day!  If you have any questions about the program, please comment or email me at coachmoholland@gmail.com.  If you’ve all ready heard enough about T25, follow this link to order!  Once you show up in my customer list, I will send you an email asking for your size and color preference for your T25 Swag!  http://teambeachbody.com/shop/-/shopping/BCPT25205?referringRepId=340323

April Specials also include the Brazil Butt Lift.  I will admit to you upfront, I do not have this in my collection.  But here is what I can tell you:

Brazil Butt Lift works your booty from all angles, focusing on the hips, slimming the thighs and giving that booty a lift!  Most people think that the butt is just one muscle. But it’s not. It’s three muscles—the gluteus medius, maximus, and minimus. Who doesn’t want a great booty?!  The booty makeover guide will introduce you to the program and lays out the schedule for the 5 booty-blasting workouts.

If you have questions about the Brazil Butt Lift program, please ask and I will give you as much information as I can!  If you are ready to jump in, follow this link to order: http://teambeachbody.com/shop/-/shopping/BCPBBL160?referringRepId=340323

Why do I show you the specials on Beachbody?  Because I believe in the products.  It took me a long time to order Shakeology.  It’s an INVESTMENT not just a purchase.  What makes these challenge packs so awesome, besides being on sale, you get to save money.  Let me break it down for you…the T25 Challenge Pack normally sells for $205 which gets you the Alpha and Beta workouts and Shakeology for that price.  Shakeology alone is $130.  That special savings comes in when your favorite program is finally on special!  T25 is now $180 and I’ve all ready shown you how much of that is Shakeology 😉  Now you might wonder, ‘why should I spend that much on a shake?  I can go to GNC and get a protein shake for less than that price’.  Shakeology is going to be your healthiest meal of the day.  It is going to give you vital nutrients AND is a protein shake.  I eat plenty of fruits and vegetables in my normal diet, but I attribute making through the cold and flu season unscathed to my daily Shakeology consumption.  This winter, at least half of my office had nasty germs of some kind, nothing brought me down.  I may have felt run down here and there, but my body was using it’s next level of health to ward off the germs.  Then the nastiness hit my own home, my husband was out for a week and still nothing hit me.  Now let me ask you something, how much do you spend on fast food or coffee everyday?  If you grab a specialty coffee at Starbucks every day, you’re spending about what the daily cost of Shakeology is per day.  I have a shake at least 6 days a week.  There is always that day I miss a shake because of something and I honestly miss it.  I have had less cravings for sweets since I’ve been using Shakeology regularly.  And I have a HUGE sweet tooth.  I know that when I get home in the afternoon, I’m going to have a chocolate “milkshake” and it satisfies that need for chocolate.

I would love you help you reach your health and fitness goals.  Not ready to commit to anything?  Not a problem.  Come learn more about me on my Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/coachShannonMoholland.  Once you get comfortable with me and what I’m about, then we can work on your goals!

 

Remember, Don’t Wish For It, Work For It!

Challenge Pack BONUSES!

I cannot express how much I love T25!  I really enjoyed Insanity but sometimes I just couldn’t talk myself into those 40 minute workouts at the end of a work day when I had a million other things that had to be done that evening (sound familiar?).   So when I heard about T25, I was curious…the premise, 25 minutes a day.  In, out, done.  I’m going to be honest with you though, I’ve never completed the full schedule.  I got through 3 weeks of sporadic Alpha Cycle workouts and was just starting the Beta when I joined my coach’s Challenge Group for the 21 Day Fix.  I was conflicted, because the first Beta Cycle workout I tried was Beta Speed 2.0 and LOVED it.  The music is just right to get you pumped up for the workout and elevates my mood and motivation instantly.  I could do Beta Speed 2.0 everyday!  Although, doing the same thing everyday doesn’t do a body good, so I do change it up!  After I finished my first round of 21 Day Fix, I decided to combine the two schedules because I love both programs.

I will be starting up a Challenge Group next week that will run at least 6 weeks and possibly until Memorial Day to help folks reach their health/fitness/nutrition goals for Summer 2014.  This Challenge Group is non-program specific and there are only 2 requirements to join: 1) register through http://www.jotform.us/coachmoholland/challenge_group_registration  and 2) must purchase a challenge pack of your choosing (I’ll help you pick the appropriate program for your goal!)  I will provide daily motivation to Challenge Group members and assist with your meal planning.

For added incentive, I’m offering a special for the T25 Challenge Pack.  The first male and the first female who order the T25 CHALLENGE PACK through me will get his/her choice of T25 top FREE!  Must order here: http://www.teambeachbody.com/shop/-/shopping/BCPT25205?referringRepId=340323

Once your order has been confirmed, I will reach out to you by email to find out what size to order for you.

What if I’m not interested in T25?

How about P90X3?

I just confirmed a special on the P90X3 Challenge pack if you order now through April 9th, 2014, you’ll receive a free P90X3 hat with your purchase.  http://www.teambeachbody.com/shop/-/shopping/BCPX3205?referringRepId=340323

Image

What is P90X3?  P90X3 is a 90-day extreme fitness program created by Tony Horton designed to get a customer ripped in just 30 minutes a day. It combines a highly structured, plateau-busting schedule with an unprecedented variety of moves that keep every muscle challenged.

I heard P90X was hard, is P90X3 right for me? Every P90X3 workout includes modifications to accommodate all fitness levels, beginning to advanced.   I don’t know about you, but I can talk myself into doing any workout for 30 minutes.  While I haven’t tried P90X3 yet myself, it is on my list and it is super appealing because it is only 30 minutes instead for 45-60 minutes.

Do you need a quick and easy way to track your workouts?  Tracking for your P90X3 workouts is NOW available on the P90X App. Download the update now in the iTunes store or the Android app store.

For Android: http://bit.ly/P90XAppAndroid
For iPhone: http://bit.ly/P90XAppiPhone

 

P90X3

 

I’d love to help you reach your health/fitness goals!  There are other specials on Challenge Pack prices for Les Mills Pump and Les Mills Combat.  If you’d like to know more about those programs, or any other, just comment or shoot me an email (coachmoholland@gmail.com).

Round 1 of 21 Day Fix – My Initial Results

I have one round of the 21 Day Fix program under my belt and I feel that I had great results.  It certainly gave me the boost I needed to stay on track better than I had been previously.  I have always eaten healthy but have just found myself over-indulging on the weekends and that started trickling into the week days.

Here are my measurements (in inches) before I started the 21 Day Fix program:

Chest: 32,  Right Arm: 11.5 , Left Arm: 11.25, Waist: 30.5, Hips Before: 34.75, Right Thigh Before: 22.25, Left Thigh Before: 22

During round one, I missed three of the active rest days.  I went into the 21 days trying to commit to the weekend workouts, weekend workouts are difficult for me – can any of you relate?  I did a few doubles with T25 workouts, but not too many.

Here are my after measurements:

No change in my chest measurement, Right Arm: 11 Left Arm: 10.75, Waist: 26.5, Hips: 34, Right Thigh: 21.25, Left Thigh: 21.25

An overall total of 7.25 inches lost when you add it all up.  May not be HUGE losses, but I wasn’t spot on the full 21 days.  I did see results, I did make better choices, and I did get more workouts in.  My February calendar looked better than it has ever looked before, see the difference between January and February?  I also stuck with it into March.  My first round of 21 Day Fix ended on March 9th.

As much as I hate to post these pictures, as I’m still not comfortable where I am currently at, seeing it in a photo makes it easier to understand why my clothes don’t fit the way I want them to.  It also holds me more accountable to all of you reading this post.

AFTER                                    BEFORE

No major change right, but there is a change!  That’s what matters.  Could it have been better?  Yes!  But am I discouraged?  No!  Why?  Because I’m responsible for my actions and my results are a reflection of those actions!  The equation needs to stay balanced to achieve your goals.  What is the equation?  Fitness + Nutrition + Support = Success

I know that I need to work harder on the nutrition side of the equation.  I had plenty of workouts and plenty of support from my challenge groups, but I didn’t eat “perfect”.

I’m spending the next 21 Days and focusing in on my nutrition and ensuring at least 5 days of cardio and strength training workouts to help me reach the next “hash mark on my belt”.

How are you going to achieve your goals?

I’d love to help you achieve your goals.  I will have another FREE 5 Day Fast Fix Challenge group starting on March 24th.  This challenge group focuses on eating healthy and working out at least 30 minutes each day.  I provide you will a meal plan and shopping list to help you achieve your maximum results in those 5 days.  This is intended to jump start you.  What do you need for this challenge group?  Determination to start your journey to achieving your health and fitness goals, me as your facebook friend (all challenge groups are held on facebook), your choice of workouts (at home program, running, biking, weight training, etc. whatever you want to do…you just have to commit to 30 minutes of challenging activity each day.  What is optional but HIGHLY recommended?  Me as your coach for FREE with a team beachbody account (don’t worry, it’s FREE, you can sign up here: https://www.teambeachbody.com/tbbsignup/-/tbbsignup/free/340323) and Shakeology to have during the 5 days.  You can order the Shakeology Taste Sampler which is the perfect way to try Shakeology’s most popular flavors. Each sample pack contains 4 single-serve packets of Shakeology (1 Chocolate, 1 Strawberry, 1 Vanilla, and 1 Greenberry), a copy of the Shakeology Welcome Guide, as well as 6 mouthwatering recipes.  You can get that here: http://www.teambeachbody.com/shop/-/shopping/ShkTasteSampler?referringRepId=340323.  If you have questions or are interested in the Challenge Group, please comment or feel free to drop me an email at coachmoholland@gmail.com.

Remember, don’t wish for it, WORK for it!
