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.
- Mommy & Me Tabata Workout
- Get Outside and Celebrate Earth Day!

Aahhh!!! I would so love to win this! I?m such a young, hard worker! But just can?t give up the food! I need something to help me go in the right direction and not give up on me! I?ve been back and forth with weight my whole life and just want to break that I find a healthy lifestyle that?ll stick! ?? ??????
Hi Heidi and chris i feel I should win this because I am on my own journey and have been for two years and I want to be motivated and I would lobe to win this. I am a mom of these boys and I have always hated my body I was bullied in school and am starting to love myself. I want to win this to keep going on with my journey thank you for all you guys do

Hey Heidi,
I believe I deserve to win this giveaway so I can be healthy, strong & fast enough to keep up with my two littles! I’ve battled with hashimoto’s for over 10 years- which makes daily living almost impossible with awful fatigue, sore muscles & bones, anxiety/depression, & even worse is it feels like no matter what I do, I just keep gaining weight! I feel so defeated most days because even though I feel like working out my body won’t let me. Some days it breaks my heart to just sit & watch my boys play instead of running around with them. It would be amazing to learn from the best & truly have a life changing transformation. I would love to enter a bikini competition as well but have a long road ahead & don’t know the best way to get there. I’ve watched a few of your transformations and you guys are so inspiring! I believe with your app & wisdom I could truly enter that stage as confident as hell & prove that even with a crippling autoimmune condition that I can do it too! My kiddos would thank you so much to have their old mommy back. ?
Because I love what you do and am a huge fan and because I don?t think my husband would let me PAY for your app but I know it?s legit and woulD LOVE to have it. ??????
I think I should win the giveaway because I don?t know how to get healthy properly. I?ve paid for three coaches through my gym (they?re not cheap) and all they did was work me out. They never taught me anything I could keep long term. I don?t know if it?s just because I?m in Alaska and people don?t go through proper training that they may have elsewhere. I just know I want to get healthier but I feel like every step forward sends me two back and then I get discouraged. I think you and Chris are awesome coaches and I fully believe it would all make sense. I want the whole package. I want to get healthy and stay healthy long term. It?s something I would love my husband to learn and also I would love to pass the knowledge on to kids I hope to have in the future! Please pick me!!!! My future needs the tools and skills to move forward.

I really don’t know why I am better than every other person in this contest. That’s maybe I am not! Everyone deserves to win but i really want this chance to reach my final destination. I’m fighting with extra weight since I was little. I know I’m almost there but somehow I lost focus and I’m struggling.
P. S. Your show motivated me to take care of my body and be a better me.
Would love to win this!!!! My husband is my best workout partner and we always make time to get our workouts in. I have knee issues so I?m always trying to find new workouts I can do. We are saving up for building our own home so don?t really make room in the budget for apps like this. We have loved you guys since Extreme Weight Loss! Love learning new health/fitness things all the time. Thanks for always being an inspiration! Would LOVE to win this! ??
?Winning? would be the absolute best, But haven?t we already won, you and Chris consistently inspire. I?m Betza aka Bratty Rosi, mother of 4 , struggled with weight ALL my life…currently 100 lbs overweight, no motivation, and currently feeling like ?who really gives a f?-? what I look like, honestly, life has been hard….this would be great….I just want to start new….for once and for all. Be Blessed.
I would LOVE to win a lifetime membership! I?m about to have my first child this summer and all my fitness routines will be changing and I?ll need all new inspiration, ideas on family fitness balance, guidance and motivation and the app would help so much!
I would love to win this!! Have recently found a love for lifting weights at the gym but tend to get stuck and don?t know what to do every day and I think this app would be life changing and help me with that! I am a mother of 4 so i definitely need to make sure I am healthy and taking care of myself so I can best take care of my kiddos!! I also always need healthy ideas for meals that will also be family friendly because i need to feed my kids without making 2 separate dinners! I know you guys understand this because of having 4 children yourselves!! Please pick me!!
