Keeping Workouts Fun and Engaging

We've spent the last four weeks learning two new workout routines. Now, that you've got some dynamic exercises mastered, it's time to mix it up and have some fun!

The next four weeks, we'll be changing up your workouts by adding more kettlebell exercises, some cardio blast segments, maybe even a little obstacle course!


Fabulous Food Found Locally: Some of you may have seen on the hungry girl website (www.hungry-girl.com), a delicious muffin called Vita Muffin Vita Tops. The healthy name may lead you to believe that it's doomed to be dry with a cardboard like texture. At least that's what I expected when I saw that they contained: 100 cal, 1.5 g. fat, 21 g. carb, 6g. fiber, and 3 g. protein (they're actually good for you).
I spotted these in the "healthy freezer section" at the back of the Target in Urbandale. Even though they were a little pricey, I must say they were worth it. YUM! Try it with a cup of skim milk and a hard boiled egg for a quick easy breakfast.

Other Fabulous Finds: Get yourself to the farmers market to find the most delicious, fresh fruits and vegetables. It's a great way to explore a new vegetable side dish. Not sure how to prepare something? Ask the people selling the items, they usually have great ideas, or hop on the internet and find a recipe you're willing to try!
