It’s a gloomy, rainy, MN Friday

BUT…

Look Great at the Lake Boot Camp ALWAYS LIFTS MY SPIRITS!!!

Every week my boot camper friends bring the thunder – no pun intended today.  I swear they motivate me as much, if not more than, I think I motivate them.  It’s truly my pleasure to coach them.

See them kicking butt once again with our Workout Video of the Week.  It’s another Freaky Friday 50:10 5-exercise circuit training workout powered by Workout Muse: Boot Camp Dynamite.

Exercise 1:  Deadlifts

Exercise 2:  Front Raises

Exercise 3:  Alternating Forward Lunges

Exercise 4:  Reverse Flys

Exercise 5:  Prone Knee-in

Finisher:  Swings

We always do a total body resistance training circuit, but today we put a little extra love towards the shoulders with the raises and the flys, and then having to hold the body up for the prone knee-in.

Summer is just around the corner and we want to make sure our shoulders and arms are looking sexy!

Now, GET AFTER IT!

For today’s post, I thought I’d share some exceprts from Dr. Ben’s (Eniva’s Vice Chairman & Chief Medical Officer) March newsletter.  It’s perfect timing actually, since today is kind of a gloomy gray MN day…imagine that. ;-b

But, Spring is just around the corner!!  So, let’s talk about Vitamin D: “The Sunshine Vitamin.”

Vitamin D is often referred to as “The Sunshine Vitamin” because your body produces it in response to being exposed to sunlight.  You also know Vitamin D is important for helping promote healthy bones and teeth in the body through facilitating calcium absorption.  What you may not know is Vitamin D is critical to regulating over 2000 genes in the body involved in multiple areas of health.  Vitamin D plays a critical role in supporting a healthy heart, healthy cellular replication, a healthy immune system, a healthy mood and mental health [giving it another nickname, "The Feel Good Vitamin"], comfort within muscles, and even promoting healthy blood sugar levels – to name just a few!

So, what makes Vitamin D so unique in how it works?

“One Ounce, One Cell at a Time”
- Bob Britz

Wow!  This has truly been an inspirational week.

I started off the week sharing a story of how one of my very awesome Look Great at the Lake Boot Camp members made some changes in her life to fit in fitness for her family.  Then on Tuesday I introduced you to my friend Steve, his incredible philosophy of giving, and Send Out Cards – my new favorite feel good service.   Yesterday, of course, was my honey’s birthday – by the way, Janell is very appreciative of all the birthday wishes.

Today, I’m going to share with you an honorable experience I had Tuesday night.

Let me give you a little background though…

It’s Janell’s 28th Birthday!!

As many of you know, Janell is my girlfriend, best friend, confidant and major supporter.  It’s very fitting that this week I’m talking about inspirational figures in my life.  Janell is major inspiration to me in so many ways.  I can’t even begin to describe the support, love and faith she has given me over the past couple years, especially this last year as I completely changed courses in my life and started my boot camp programs and website.

Janell is one of the strongest people I’ve ever met.  She’s been through a lot in just a few short years; I’ve dished out quite a bit of stress for her myself :-b.  But, through all of it, she always takes the high road and knows that in the end everything will work itself out.  I think it’s that positivity and outlook on life that makes it so for her; kind of like the Law of Attraction we talked about in yesterday’s post.

For those of you who don’t know, Janell and I used to work together at Life Time Fitness.  That’s how we met.  She was one of my top trainers and eventually became my Lead Assistant Department Head – basically, she was my right hand.  She kept things running at the top notch, record setting level that the we became accustomed to when I was traveling and performing my other roles for the company.  We made one hell of a team along with my other assistants and program leads (thanks Nick, Liz, Phil, Derk and all the other previous assistants that were eventually promoted).  Who knew that our friendship, trust and faith in each other would eventually blossom into the amazing relationship we have today?  We certainly didn’t.  In fact, we still joke about how there was zero attraction between us for the first couple years we knew each other.  LOL.

Anyway, please join me in wishing her a very happy birthday by posting a comment below.  And, it also happens to be one of my Look Great at the Lake Boot Camp member’s birthday as well.  Happy birthday Cassie!

In honor of Janell’s birthday, I thought it would be fun to run a special today.

Since Janell is 28 years old today, I’m giving a 28% discount on our regular boot camp prices when you enlist for an 8-month program.

That’s a KILLER DISCOUNT on my Look Great at the Lake Boot Camp and Online Video Boot Camp programs!

If you’d like to take advantage of one of these awesome deals just shoot me an email at justin@justinyule.com and I’ll make it happen for you.

Once again, happy birthday to my inspiration and the true love of my life – Janell.

“You get back what you send out. ”

- Steve Wein

I love that saying.  My colleague and friend Steve Wein from Send Out Cards says that all the time; in fact, it’s the tag line for his business.  It really couldn’t be more true.

In keeping with my “Who inspires me?” theme for the week, I want to talk briefly about Law of Attraction, my friend Steve, and an amazing program that helps you let others know how special they are to you.  And, YES, I will tie this into achieving your weight loss, health & fitness goals.

Grab a cup of coffee and sit with me for a few minutes.  If you don’t have one, save your money.  $2 for a cup of Joe is insane anyway.

Everyday I’m inspired by my members.  It’s truly a blessing getting to do what I do for a living.  Today, I want to share with you an especially cool “story” I’m going to call Coffee Boot Camp.

You see, I have a relatively new member who’s just rocking it.  She’s a very standard client that most people can relate to in the sense that she’s a mom and wife who has put on some extra weight over the years since having kids.  Oh, in addition, she’s been laid off.  Yeah, she’s got some stress in her life.

We had another AWESOME week in Look Great at the Lake Boot Camp.  Over a dozen new members started up with us on Monday, and they absolutely rocked it!!

As we do each Friday, we got after it hard with a 50:10 5-exercise circuit powered by Workout Muse: Boot Camp Dynamite followed by a killer finisher. This is a favorite high-intensity interval training (HIIT) format, especially for dramatically increasing endurance, boosting metabolism, and melting some serious fat!

Check out our boot camp rockstars below as they perform this rocking circuit training workout:

Exercise 1: Sumo Deadlifts
Exercise 2: Incline Chest Press
Exercise 3: Wall Sit
Exercise 4: Standing Rows
Exercise 5: Total Body Extensions

The Finisher:  Mountain Climbers

How to Get 6-Pack Abs Without Crunches or Sit-ups

Face it- we all want a flat, sexy midsection. But for many of us no amount of crunches or sit-ups seems to get the job done. I can’t tell you how many times people have asked me the following questions:

“I do all kinds of crunches and sit-ups every day and I still have a flabby midsection. What’s the deal?”

Well, before I reveal your six-pack abs blueprint, let’s first debunk some very important myths about how to get six-pack abs:
