A studio near my office is offering this starting tonight.....how cool is that?
Image and Classes: www.Zfitstudio.com

Any thoughts its called Zglo????

Would you try it??? I would but I have a client tonight, so its out for me and once I leave Fenton I don't want to head back for the night. *sigh.

Last night I finished up the "back to school" shopping for my nephew, and spent more then I thought but got some great buys. Old Navy 4 hoodies = $40 on clearance that's just $10 bucks each!

No way was I going on the TAX FREE crazy weekend starting today!

I managed to get home late, so I made portabella mushrooms with squash and Mozzarella Cheese. D-lish I think all the cooking stuff I have been watching paid off. But I forgot my last Whey Casein so my protein was not as high as I wanted it to be.

I got in about 10 minutes of Zumba last night so I am NOT counting that. I also did my stats this morning and no change. I was a bit low on my calories but I felt really great, unless I was on a shopping high lol.

Killer Stability Ball Workout


Last night I decided to do a ball and band workout with my client and it was pretty brutal if I say so myself.

The killer was wheel barrel walks with a stability ball at your ankles, this takes so much core and upper body strength its RIDICULOUS! Love it of course, and the walking pushups are also good.

In the end, I thought I would finish up with some guitar practice but I decided to get watching the cooking station again. Now I want to make some great Mexican food next week, so I have most of the things to make it with I just am going to do a big batch cook up.

Today at lunch I went for a spray tan, since I had a B-day coupon it was only $10 buck half what it is normally. Now I wish I was doing a video!
