My Favorite Ways to Stay Fit This Summer: Preparing your summer bod starts way before the temperatures hit the 100s and continues throughout the summer!
In order to save you some time researching and planning out your workouts for the summer, I’ve put together my top four favorite workouts to keep you fit (while still leaving you time for the kids!):
- Four Minute Tabata Workout
- Oxygen Magazine Booty Building Workout
- Dog Friendly Workout
- Top Ten At-Home Exercise for Total Body Toning
*And if you’re just beginning your transformation journey or want some amazing transformation tools, here is THE all-in-one post (filled with lots of links!) to get you started: How to Begin Your Transformation Journey?Step-by-Step
My Go-To Smoothie and Shake Recipes: On a hot summer day (and really, any day, right?), a smoothie or shake is a perfect meal! Smoothies help pack in those healthy micronutrients without even realizing you’re drinking your veggies.
They’re also a great way to stay cool and save yourself some time with meal prep?exactly what this mama needs with four littles running around all season long. Just add the ingredients to your blender and voila! Total plus: All of the recipes below are Powell Pack approved, kid-friendly treats that our family loves to drink! YUM.
Top Family Activities + Family Workouts: For me, summer is all about savoring that extra time with the kids and trying new things. While swimming and splash pads are a great way to cool down, we can’t ignore the fact that workouts are still a necessity too!
Adding a kid-friendly element to things like a Tabata workout is a great way to stay fit AND enjoy quality time as a family. Fit some “screen free” time into your daily summer schedule and get your whole family moving this summer with some of my favorite kid-friendly activities below.

- Get Outside and Celebrate Earth Day!

I would like to win because since becoming a mom having an umbilical hernia and diastasis recti, being a mom and a full time teacher…it?s hard to put myself first.
I found this mom group that helped me but now that I work and am on my own at home it?s hard to stay positive and motivated.
I would love to win the lifetime access because ever since I started following you and Chris. I read the blog constantly and remind myself to stay positive and knowing that you had diastasis recti too that makes me feel like it can get better too!
Thank you for this chance!
Hi Heidi!
My name is Arlena and I am 26 years old. I have been following you and Chris since your Extreme Weightloss Days, which btw I miss. In 2012 I moved to Kentucky to be with my bf at the time and started gaining weight. Then in 2014 I was diagnosed with PCOS and finally had somewhat of an answer as to why I kept gaining and wasn?t losing. (This is not an excuse for my weight gain). Now almost 4 years later I am at my heaviest, unhappy in my marriage and am looking into moving on with my life. My health however is my main concern and I could really use some help. Having the lifetime access to the app would give me tre tools I need to get to the healthy weight I want to be at. Due to the separation there isn?t much I can afford other than food and bills. Being gifted and blessed with the lifetime access would mean so much to me. Thanks Heidi for all the tips you give us!
I love the transform app!! Healthy lifestyle is my passion and I just love the positive energy I get from both of you through the app and through social media. Love you guys!
Because I always end up stopping and putting others first, myself last. The last year and a half have been the worst, and I can see and feel it. Makes me depressed in a way. I would love to win this and share with my 2 teenage daughters. This would be life changing and almost like someone there for me, cheering me on, supporting a dream of mine.
First of all I love y?all so much and feel so connected to what y?all are about. It?s not just about getting fit- it?s living your best life and being the BEST VERSION of you!! I am on my third pregnancy currently and y?all have changed my life forever with these workouts and meal plans! It honestly couldn?t have come at a better time and I truly have so much admiration and respect for you both. I want to do this plan forever!!! It?s so tailored and when you do it the right way the results happen and I?ve never experienced it to be so true than with your approach! After this pregnancy I want to even dive in deeper to get the best body of my life and go for it and with this giveaway it would change everything for me especially with having three little mouths to feed!!
Bonjour heidi et chris!
Why me?!… Why not me?! (No? Not enough?)
Ok then..
i love love love you and chris! Im watching reruns of chris? show on youtube, and my favourites are the ones you?re both in. You can tell that you?re really sincere and caring people.
Im 30 years old and my life have been on pause for years! What i mean by that is that i stop myself from doing anything i would want to, travel, sports, dating, and i tell myself that i will start doing those things once im ?skinny? and in shape but it never happens. I feel like its now or never!! Im wasting my life away. I would love to have you and chris help me with that. I always tell myself that the first thing id do if i win a lot of money would be to contact you and chris lol (still waiting for that winning lottery ticket)
Merci!

Gday from Australia ! I have watched every single episode of transformation . I have always found inspiration and managed to loss 30kgs . But I have found it hard to stay on track without support . And I?m getting marriages next year tot he love of my life and having the support would really help .
Even if I?m not chosen thank you for the inspiration to keep trying
I am from Switzerland, a mom of 2 girls, nd working parttime.
I try hard to transform, but its not always easy. With the app it would be a huge help.
Chris and Heidi, I?ll first start by saying that you have changed the fitness game for life! I have been following you two since extreme makeover: weight loss! The way you and Chris train really gets you going makes you really believe in yourself. You two have been amazing and honestly so inspiring. I see all that you do Heidi (I follow your IG religiously) and it really shows you how much one woman can accomplish. So let?s be honest, we all need this right? Well, I can tell you I have done the whole eat right and lose weight, I lost 50lbs last year in less than 6 months! Well after I started school and worked full time (I?m a single mom of two boys) I didn?t hold myself accountable. I need something that keeps me in check, that has a plan for me so that it becomes apart of my routine. I already have so much going on that I find it hard to get a meal plan and workout routine set. I sometimes barely eat, therefore starvation mode kicks in. I just know something like this will keep me going and change this lifestyle I fell back into. This honestly would mean the world to me. And I would be able to get myself back together. I struggle with anxiety when I?m not working out and then all these things pop up. I am at a high risk of type 2 diabetes because I had gestational diabetes with my last son and that scares me more than anything. I see my weight go up and I get scared. Amongst that along with hereditary high cholesterol, vericose veins and the diabetes problem I need something like this more than I can explain but i know you guys understand! Please pick me for this! Thank you for taking the time to read this! You guys are amazing!!!
I?d love to win this for me and my husband. We?re both using the Transform app and seeing results. Using the Transform app has changed our lives. Transforming has become our new norm. We?d love to continue this transformation journey and grow with the app. I don?t want to ever go back to being a couch potato!
