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.

I?ve been with you guys from day 1!!! Extreme Weight Loss on ABC, to losing 60 pounds after baby 2 with the Vemma Bode program. So far I have lost 7-1/2 pounds In the last few weeks with the Transform app! This is after baby 4, so I feel like there is more work to be done!! I would LOVE to stick with you guys for a lifetime!! You definitely wouldn?t regret choosing me and I would be thrilled to continue enjoying your recipes for life!!
I would love to win so that both my mom and I can use the app. I’m expecting baby #2 by the end of June and so could definitely use some help with losing baby weight again and getting back on track. With being a busy working mama who commutes a long distance it would be so helpful.
I also would give the other membership to my mom who does so much to help me and my family out by watching my daughter and who has been trying to get healthy again and back on track and lose weight. I think this would be the perfect motivation to help her out.
Also I’m a huge fan of you and Chris and have watched all your shows and would love to get coached by you both!
I would love to win this lifetime access to The Tranformation App for myself and my boyfriend! I?ve been following you and Chris for years now and absolutely love everything you all promote and how dedicated to health & fitness you all are… let?s not forget your adorable family! My boyfriend and I workout as much as possible and I follow so many tips you each provide on social media, your app would be amazing to continuously use.
I have struggled with my weight for years. I keep it under control because I do like to be active and eat healthy and live a healthy life.
However, I was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 46 in January and was not able to work out much through surgery and radiation.
As soon as I was released to exercise, I started with the Transform app and even though I have not been 100% yet I do the workouts at least 4x week and love them!
My 20yo daughter is overweight and I would love for her to start on the app and get motivated!
Hello, you beautiful lady!
I would love to win because I have struggled with being fat for a very long time. I weigh 300 lbs and I have hit the end of the road. I don?t know what to do anymore. I have tried everything. A year and a half ago I gave birth to an adorable baby boy! I want to be able to run around with him without feeling tired. I need someone like you in my life!!
Thank you for the consideration!

You guys are amazing and inspiring to watch
Becoming a new mom and not knowing what to expect my after baby body to look like. I would love to be able to be pushed and get my pre baby weight body back and to be able to do it with you guys would be a life changer. It would be amazing to win and share with my mom shes a huge fan as well. Being a new mom and after college I havwnr been happy with my body I would like to feel better about myself and with this I believe I could with the help of your app.
Heidi and Chris,
I would love to win the Lifetime subscribition to the Transformation App. I got sick about 9 years ago. Shorting after I ended up doubling my weight. I have been on massive doses of steroids and unable to walk or stand for more then a few minutes at a time. Lately, I have started to feel a little bit better and have lost over 100 pounds on my own but I have a long way (or should I say weigh LOL) to go. I?m starting to feel stuck and don?t want to lose my progress. I need to learn ways to excersice while sitting or only standing for a couple of minutes at a time. I also can?t do a lot of cardio due to heart rate issues. I know there are ways to continue progressing towards my goals dispite my challenges but l really need help figuring out what to do and how to get the most bang for my time. I would also love to find more creative, tasty meals. Right now being a single parent living on disability with a son in college and a ton of medical expenses I just can?t afford the app. That is why I am hoping to win the Lifetime app. For my friend I would choose my son. Now that he no longer plays competitive baseball, he needs to get into a workout routein so that he does not end up in my shoes someday. Thank you for all you do for so many. I hope you have a blessed day.
I?m not the typical candidate for this type of contest, I?ll admit. I?m not a busy working mom or someone with a huge weight loss journey ahead of her. But I am a former athlete that?s fallen off the wagon more times than I can count. I?m a college student balancing classes, work, and taking care of my mom, who became ill right as I started school. Working out went from a passion to another chore for me, as other stuff got in the way.Back in the fall, when I wanted to start lifting weights and getting in shape again, but didn?t know where to start, I used your app and fell in love. I actually looked forward to going to the gym after work as stress relief! Then big life stuff got in the way and now months later I still haven?t restarted. Lifting gave me peace of mind before, and that?s why today I am headed to the gym, phone in hand, app ready to go. Whether I win or not, I?ll still use your program because I love it. But having a lifetime access to it would allow me to set my goals long term and sights higher! Thanks for the incredible opportunity! You guys are angels.
Ever since I was a little girl I have been on one diet after another. Sometimes with success, but most of the time with failure. ?Weight? has always been a word I have dreaded hearing. I would love to win this contest so that maybe I can find a program that works for me and will be able to stick with it long term. I am a mother of two girls, so it?s important to me to model a healthy body image to them. Currently, I am facing some serious health issues that would either greatly improve or even disappear if I can get this extra weight off. Heidi, you have always been a huge inspiration! Thank you for doing what you do!
What an awesome giveaway??????
As a military wife and mama of two,
some days there just isn?t any leftover time for myself. I have definitely lost my groove after adding the second baby (New schedule, who dis?????) and having access to the app for liiiiiiiife would be an amazing item to have in that fit mama toolkit.
