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.

Plain and simple, I need help. It?s confusing trying to figure out where to start and how to start. Its hard to find good motivation and even harder to try and plan out what?s next. Winning would help immensely. I don?t want to be like this forever and this could help change everything. Thank you.
Holy mackerel. There are so many wonderful peeps who deserve this.
Here’s why I’m here.
I’m 34, mom of 4. I, like most people, have tried everything. Everything from not eating, eating sooooo little, to even weight loss surgery. Nothing has ever worked. I found the transform app but complete fluke and I love it. I love the food plans which a simple and so delicious. To the workouts that absolutely kick my butt every time. This time I’m determined because I’ve actually been accepted to university in the fall and I need to keep up to all the kids that are half my age and really I’m terrified. So i love this app and i thought I’d try to get the lifetime.
I’m a busy full-time working mom of two little girls. I’m up at 4:30 every morning to workout with your app before I go to work. It has made meal planning and strength training a breeze and I’m super thankful for that. I’m an aspiring triathlete with 20 races on my calendar this year and the cross-training from the Transform App has really upped my game. I would love to win so I can continue on my journey and show my girls what a strong mama looks like.
I should win the life time transform app because I want to stay healthy for the rest of my life! I am a nursing student and finding time to stay motivated is tough. I stumbled upon this app a little over a month ago and it has restored my motivation! Knowing what I need to do at the gym everyday and knowing how to do it keeps me motivated. Even if I don?t win the prize I must say I?m very thankful for you guys and taking the time to make such a great program for everyone. Also thank you for getting me back on tract to being a healthier version of me. ???
I don?t think I deserve to win this any more than the next person. But I will say, I will be forever grateful if I did win. Winning this would make me hope again. Being picked will finally be the reason I take control of my life. Getting this prize will help me finally be the mom and wife I always tell myself I?ll be but never am because I am always feeling hopeless. I?d use this to be an inspiration to all around me, in particular my dad who is struggling to get healthy after 72 years of unhealthy living.
I’m over 40 and have two kids under 5 years old. I have been working out consistently for the pass to years but still have some running up to doing and baby weight to concur. The transform app has been a life saver on busy nights as I plan my meals and food prep on the weekends. Budget is tight these days but I really do love using the app so to win a lifetime membership would be absolutely amazing!
I really struggle with losing weight and keeping it off. Having this app for LIFE would be amazing for my focus and drive! I love all the workout variations and the food options.
Heidi and Chris! I have been a huge fan of yours for years and I love you guys! I am a part of your private group on Facebook and love all the success stories I?ve heard and seen and how everyone lifts each other up I got the transform app the minute it was available! Unfortunately I was unable to keep it due to the fixed income I?m on, I have a young son with Down syndrome whose illnesses and therapy sessions can be costly! I really want the lifetime give away I would love nothing more than being with you guys for the rest of my life to not only see myself grow but the app and you guys and your family! I?m a single mother of two little boys and I?ve hit rock bottom after the birth of my son with Down syndrome I became depressed sad and gained 200lbs I am now at my heaviest 325lbs and I would love nothing more than to shed the weight be who god intended me to be and live my best life for myself and my sons. I know with the extra weight I am slowly killing myself and my boys need me for as long as possible and I know the time is right. In my heart I know God wants this for me and having this lifetime membership would be the extra push I need! So please pick me! Love you guys!
Being self employed it is very hard to find time to put a meal plan together with a shopping list. Also have all my workouts at my finger tip. This app is amazing finally has everything at my fingertips. I am so excited to find what I did with you. Wishing I was I was 20 years younger. My work out buddy Allison is ready to getter done.
First I love that the prompt here says “say something nice” lol!
Secondly, I would love this app because both my husband and I need to lose over 100+lbs each and need all the help we can get! I recently bought a customized meal plan from one of the people Chris (your hubby) gave a shout out to on his page and it’s not a very good plan :(. I spent $200 for nothing. I need this! I love that you are local and love that your brand is expanding-I’m in it to win it-just need a good leader to direct me! Love you guys!
