Congrat Lara Korba!   
We just need to change your name to the "Energizer Bunny"!  This girl tore through the continuous 20's workout and still had enough left to push through, at a feverish pace, the last set of 40 second mountain climbers in the finisher.  Her energy was a definite inspiration and helped everyone get through the workout this morning.

Amanda

These girls did an absolutely fantastic job last night.  They all squatted lower, lunged lower, did plank ups faster and cranked out upper body twists until their abs cramped.  They are all most deserving of Boot Camper of the Day!

Top 5 Healthy Eating Shortcuts

Top 5 Healthy Eating Shortcuts
Help Me Get Lean!- I Don’t Cook & I Work Long Hours

Getting and staying lean can be a challenge for many women. If you don’t cook and have a relatively busy schedule, eating to support body transformation can seem impossible. Although eating to support body transformation is simple, it requires a bit of preparation and planning. Failing to plan meals is the most common busy woman body transformation mistake so I am sharing my top five Healthy Eating Shortcuts.

1. Rid your home, purse, car, and desk of junk food like starchy, sugary, high fat snacks.
You will eventually eat what you have in your possession no mater how good your intentions. This is especially true if you are on the go and pressed for time when it is time to eat. Since convenience is a driving factor for your food choices, make it inconvenient to eat unsupportively.

2. Stock your home, purse, car, and desk with healthy snacks.
Since you will eat what you have, make it convenient to eat healthy. Make sure you only have healthy, supportive food in your possession.

3. Buy supportive foods that require minimal preparation.
Think “done for you” when you go shopping. I am not advocating buying sodium laden frozen meals here. Instead, buy individual serving size yogurts, roasted chicken, sliced all natural deli meat, pre-washed bagged lettuce, cut veggies, etc. You will still need to put the components of the meal together but now you can prepare an entire day’s meals in about 10 minutes. You will pay slightly more for the convenience factor but at least you won’t skip meals or eat unhealthy selections because you ran out of time to prepare your food.

4. Become familiar with healthy options that you can buy on the go.
If you eat food prepared outside of your home more than twice per week, you will want to learn how to pick healthy options when dining out or picking up. Pick meals made mostly of grilled meat and vegetables. When you eat starches (ideally with your earlier meals rather than dinner when you are more likely to be sedentary), pick options like black beans or plain baked potatoes since these are less likely to be prepared with extra oil and butter. Speak up and ask for your items to be prepared without added oil or butter. Skip the cheese and croutons when you choose salads since most establishments give you servings that are more than one portion and use moderate amounts of clear salad dressing (think vinaigrettes instead of Ranch or Thousand Island).

5. Always carry water with you…and drink it!
It is very common to mistake thirst for hunger- especially when you are moving quickly from one appointment to the next. Always have a bottle of water with you (again making what you need convenient) and be sure to sip often. When it is empty, immediately refill or get another. You will be less likely to overeat and will feel refreshed and energized rather than feeling the lethargy commonly associated with dehydration.

Congrats to the Mother/Daughter duo of Amanda and Diane who were fantastic tonight.  They attacked each round of each exercise during all four stations.  It was an overall impressive workout performed by all especially considering the intense heat they had to contend with.
