Is this REALLY my life?!

What do I do for a living?

The FIRST thing that comes to mind is *HAVING FUN* and *CHANGING LIVES*!

BUT...my ACTUAL title is a Beachbody Coach! Most of you already know this, and if you didn't...NOW you do!

**It's hard to call this a JOB!**

For those who don’t know what exactly a Beachbody Coach does--->>

Here's my TYPICAL day:

*Wake up, workout, and drink my Shakeology.
*Check in with all Challenge Groups/Coach Training Groups
*Answer emails {{listen to people’s goals and help them find a life-changing solution}}
*Snuggle with my furbaby
*Drive my sister to work, get some errands done.
*Check more emails and read/listen to personal development.
*Check in with my challengers{{see how they're doing}}
*Team calls or coach calls
*ME TIME! <3

What I love about Coaching:

I have the opportunity to make a DIFFERENCE in the lives of others. I am fulfilled. And, I get to do all of this while I live my life the way I want to live it without missing out on the PEOPLE in it! Did I mention that I LITERALLY can do this from ANYWHERE I have an internet connection?!

And, you know what? This is possible for YOU too! I am planning to mentor 2 more people before the start of summer {{busy season}}! If you've EVER considered Coaching in the past or if you’d like a little

21 Day Fix Extreme: Day 3!

Day 3 in the BAG!

Today was Pilates Fix Extreme--and apparently I thought this workout would be easy for some reason? Wayyyy---WRONG! I actually had a tough time getting through the workout. I wanted to give up a BUNCH of times.

We used the resistance band 100% of the time with this workout. What's the trick with that thing? I had such a hard time getting it in the right place--it always felt like I was doing it wrong. It cant be just me?! HAHA!

We worked EVERY part of our bodies. My legs were still SUPER tight from Monday's workout--and now they feel great! I'm not going to say that this was my fav--but I have a new found respect for Pilates. Definitely looking forward to tomorrow's workout--and its LEG day!

I LOVE leg day. Probably because I have some BEASTLY legs!

Check out the preview of Pilates Fix Extreme here!

Progress so far:

-4 lbs!

SAYYYY WHATT?!

A little short on time today, so i'll get back on track with posting about my meals tomorrow!

Be sure to check out my Day 4 review tomorrow!

Balsamic Baked Asparagus with Parmesan

Are you ready for asparagus season? This has to be one of the easiest ways to cook asparagus. Just trim the ends, lay out on a foil lined baking sheet, toss with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper, Parmesan, and whatever else you might want on them. I eat them like French  Arrange the asparagus spears on a foil-lined baking sheet. Addictive? Yes.

They’re a perfect side to pretty much ANY protein!

I took a normal Baked Asparagus recipe and REALLY jazzed it up! So DELICIOUS! A MUST try!

Ingredients:

• 1 pound asparagus
• 2 Tbsp olive oil
• 2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 2 Tbsp minced garlic
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• 1/2 cup loosely packed Parmesan cheese

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F
2. Break or cut off the woody ends of the asparagus spears. For an added touch, if you want you can use a vegetable peeler to peel the skins off the base of the asparagus spears for a more elegant presentation.
3.  Arrange the asparagus spears on a foil-lined baking sheet
4. Sprinkle with 2 Tbsp olive oil, 2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar, 2 Tbsp minced garlic, salt and pepper to taste and lastly 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese.
5. Bake until cheese begins to brown. Usually 8-15 minutes.

All done!

If you're following the 21 Day Fix meal plan, each serving accounts for 1 Green, 1 Blue and 1 Teaspoon.

Crockpot Basalmic Chicken

Before this recipe I had NEVER cooked ANYTHING in the crock-pot before--but now it is my NEW best friend! So simple and very little involvement--just add ingredients--turn it on and DONE! Throwing something in the crock-pot on a Sunday and having it for the week makes life a lot easier. I knew I wanted a protein for the week, something I could eat on its own or toss on a salad or in a wrap. So I decided to make THIS!

Ingredients:

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 tsp. of minced garlic
1/2 tsp. of dried rosemary
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
pinch of kosher salt
1/4 tsp. of freshly ground black pepper

I only used 1 pound of chicken, but you can always reduce or increase the recipe depending on what suits your needs!

Directions:


1. First things first, I coated the boated of the crock-pot with coconut oil (21 Day Fix friendly!).
2. Lay the chicken breasts on the bottom.
3. Sprinkled in 1/2 tsp. of minced garlic, 1/2 tsp. of dried rosemary, a pinch of kosher salt and a 1/4 tsp. of freshly ground black pepper.
4. Then add 1/2 cup of balsamic vinegar.
5. Turn the crock-pot on high and cook for about 2 and a half hours.  
6. Flip the chicken about an hour to an hour & a half in!
7. After about 2 and a half hours, turn the crock-pot down to low and shred the chicken (it was so tender, it took about 2 minutes!).  
8. Let the shredded chicken sit in the vinegar mixture on low for another half hour.  I also added about 2 tbsp. more of the balsamic vinegar.

And that's it!  
If you're following the 21 Day Fix Meal Plan--just fill a red container up and this would be considered 1 Red and 1 Teaspoon!

21 Day Fix Extreme: Day 2!

Today was #UpperFixExtreme, and boy did I work EVERY.SINGLE.MUSCLE in my upper body. The thing I love about the #21DayFix (Regular and Extreme) workouts is that Autumn has a way of kickin' your BOOTY without you really even realizing it until the end of the workout---FACEDOWN--on the floor--in the fetal position--crying! :P

I was DRENCHED in sweat after this workout and didn't even realize it. That's MY KIND of workout! Loved every minute of it and I cant wait for tomorrow's workout! This workout requires you to use light weights, heavy weights and a resistance band--and it really shakes things up a bit--so you are constantly working and constantly moving!

Here's a little preview of the Upper Fix Extreme!

I survived ALL 6 meals yesterday. I've ALWAYS had a hard time getting in all the food that I'm realistically suppose to be eating. The meal plan makes things a lot more IDIOT proof--but lets face it--there is a LOT of food in this meal plan. Going strong today so far. I did ALMOST give in when I passed McDonald's on the way home from Target today. Seriously LOVE Target! I went to get HEAVIER weights! After yesterday's workout, I realized I sometimes needed a little bit more of a challenge! Any who...2 hours later I come out with weights and MANY more items that I don't need. Target ALWAYS does that to me :P

Meal break down for today so far:

Breakfast: Vegan Chocolate Shakeology (with almond milk)

1 Red, 1 Yellow

Snack: Carrots and Hummus (my GO-TO snack!)

1 Green, 1/2 Blue

Lunch: Crockpot Basalmic Chicken and Balsamic Baked Asparagus with Parmesan

1 Red, 2 Green, 1/2 Blue, 1 Teaspoon

Snack: Oatmeal, Pineapple, Raspberries and Edamame with Almond Milk

1 Yellow, 2 Purple, 1 Orange

I have 2 more meals to go! If you need help with any recipe ideas, check out my clean eating page!

Check back tomorrow for my Day 3 Review of the 21 Day Fix Extreme!

3. 1 cup of greens (I use spinach! Strawberries mask the taste)
