Journey2fitNhealthy with Karen

Author: Karen

Hi, I'm Karen. I help people who struggle with reaching their health and fitness goals figure out how to transition from quick fix solutions to lifestyle changes that last. I've been helping others work towards their goals since February 2015. When I'm not working my full-time job or helping others I can be found spending time with my family. We enjoy quading on the dunes and spend as much time RVing as we can. My husband and I also enjoy riding our Harleys. Start working with me on making lifestyle changes that will last now.

  This is a PSA to have multiple backup plans for your workouts! I made sure everything was set up and ready to go last night.  DVD in player, clothes out, etc.  Unfortunately, our power protector/cleaner for our entire entertainment system had been tripped and I couldn’t get power back on so no TV or DVD, ugh.  Option B was to use Beachbody on Demand and stream to Kolon’s tablet…..unfortunately he left it on so it was dead, lol.  Considered option C of just going for walk but opted for D instead.  Option D was a total body Kettlebell workout[Continued…]
