    Woke up early this morning to a crabby 19 month old with a fever! BOO!

    Anyway, while I was planning a treadmill run this morning, it didn't happen. But I did manage to get in a 25 minute kettlebell workout which definitely got me sweating. Love those workouts...may start to incorporate them more over this next 30 day period rather than contining my P90X and Insanity hybrid.

    Good morning everyone! Turbo Fire day for me...Fire 45 today. Burned 446 calories as a result.

    So I have a question for you all...very personal so don't feel compelled to respond if it makes you uncomfortable. Many of you know that I was recently laid off from my job and that I've been focused on building my coaching business to see if that's something I could actually make money doing full time. My family is encouraging me to create a website specifically for clients to pay me to coach them 1 on 1 through their health, fitness, and nutrition challenges. I am not a licensed therapist nor have I formally studied any of these subjects in school. My education comes from a) my own personal journey and the success I've had with my own results and b) research I've done and continue to do for my own knowledge.

    So, my question for anyone that wants to help me out...do you think this is something I can and should pursue? Be honest please!

    Thanks guys!
    Sharon

    Sharon,

    Most definitely!! To me, as long as you are doing your research as well as using your positive experience, and you love it - you should go for it!!

    I believe when you do something you are passionate about and that means a lot to you, it shows!!

    Best of luck! If you need a website developer, my brother has done lots of work, including work on CNN and other nationwide sites. He's also created iphone apps. :)

    Thanks,
    Kim

    Sharon,

    I think you most definitely should do it. Training, in my opinion, comes from personal experience. I think you would be great at it because you are very encouraging on here. Go for it.

    Hi everyone! Is it too late to join this great challenge? I just found this thread today and am searching for some motivated people to help me along - swimsuit season is causing me a lot of anxiety and we are going on vacation in 7 weeks. I need to get fit now or never.

    Hey all Max Cardio conditioning today burned 681 calories. My body is tired it took a lot of energy to get it done but glad I did. I'm sure my lack of motivation had something to do with TOM. Hopefully I am more motivated tomorrow for recovery day. Enjoy your Wednesday everyone.

    Got my C25K training in as well this evening (W3D2). Another 311 calories gone.

    Sharon as to your question...yes, I think you should go for it! You're very passionate about health & fitness. It's obvious in how motivating you are on here. And in the fact that you keep educating yourself in regards to health and fitness. You have to love what you do. And you may have found you're calling. :)

    Sharon I think this is something that you would be very good at. You may want to however consider looking into some formal classes just to have certification on your side it may justify the charging element a little more. Most community colleges offer certification courses for a pretty decent price and health science courses. Just something to think about.

    Today has been a rough morning between thunderstorms and tornado warnings, being late to work (because of 2 car accidents), and forgetting my lunch. Trying to turn my day around. I did do my Turbo Scuplt last night burning about 300 calories in 40 mins (my legs and arms were extremely sore which is always a good thing). I will be doing Ab jam and my 20 min workout tonight which will burn about 433 calories. I hope everyone has a great Thursday.

    Hi everyone, I thought I would change things up this week, I have been doing the 30day shred to see if I would see any other progress. I have to say, I seem to have a better burn on my thighs after one of her workouts as apposed to Chalean Extreme. not sure what I'm doing wrong with Chalean.

    Seems the sickness is still sticking around the house, My daughter was home again today from school, picked her up yesterday early with a fever. now son is losing his voice and my nose is not feeling to great :( I am going to keep pushing through this and working out. I have to!!!

    Sharon, I think that you would be great doing that. Sometimes you don't need that piece of paper to know what you're doing. You are very good at this sort of thing! Best of luck to you on your endeavor!
