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!

Hey Heidi! I would love to win this access to your app! After my last pregnancy, twins- with one of my boys not making it, I just ballooned out and have been struggling to get back on track. I would love to win this, so I can become fitter for my kids, and show them how to live healthy!
Would love to have this lifetime membership with my mom! She?s such an amazing healthy role model and whenever I visit my parents we workout together. I?d love the opportunity to bond even from far away by planning our transform workouts together even if we have to do them on our own. I?m always in need of an accountability partner and I know she?s my best cheerleader!
Hello!!!! I would love to be given this opportunity. I am a long time exerciser and have been Keto for two years (on and off). I have just survived the hardest year if my life. Grief kicked my behind and I gained weight. Now I am in the throws of menopause and am very frustrated. Not giving in, but frustrated.
I have loved following the transformations shows and love the connection you make with your clients. Your compassion and empathy along with the ability to get the most out is someone who is hurting touches my soul. To have the ability to have that in my life through the app would mean the world to me. I would be in this field if I had found it earlier in my life.
As for my partner in crime I would love for my friend Amy to also receive this opportunity. Amy and I have been friends for 12 years. Amy is just now stepping into the healthy lifestyle. She has a long way to go, but has two beautiful daughters and she is doing to be around for them. All of those ladies are the most loving and kind individuals and this would be the extra hand up that she needs. Honestly, she needs this more than I do. The gift of health and improved quality of life for this beautiful lady would mean the world to me.
Thank you for reading this and considering me and my girl Amy.

Family who stays healthy together stays together. I would gift my sister Macy Dippert the transformation app because she is my go to number one supporter and side kick! Together we rock! We talk to each other on the phone during our cardio sessions! True love!
Simple- I want to learn from the best to
Be my best. Bonus – to learn from the best to help others. ???
At 65 and 69, while we work out and eat well, we could use professional assistance. We are looking at renewing our vows next year on our 15th anniversary and I’d like to find a dress that is not one of the biggest sizes available! We want this last quarter of our lives to be healthy ones and would love to win your giveaway. Thanks for doing this!
I’d love to win this with my love and father of my beautiful son as we talked about tying the knot when we’ll both be fit and confident but life being what it Is, we’re struggling to get it done and we need help !
Anyway, thanks for all that you do. I’ve been following for a while and i can’t tell You how much you and Chris inspires me to be better and try to take Care of myself and my family.
Firstly, I have to say… I?m addicted to your stories! Your so real!! Your authenticy makes me admire you, mostly your role as a mom!
So for the transformation app, I don?t have a ton of weight to lose, but due to injury, I?m just getting back on my feet and looking for something different. I?m limited in my movement. I have a whole garage gym and now I just need the trainer. I can?t afdord the program at this time, but if I did win, I would be over the moon. ? thank you for your inspiration, not just with fitness and nutrition, but for being a kind, giving person.
Hi Haidi.
I would like to win , because when i was in my teens i have lost 1/3 of my weight. it was pretty cool but now i am studing at the university to become a doctor and you know, lot of studies and no motivation to workout properly , just home workouts and running but i think i dont have the right excersices to toned my body. it would be super cool to be a winner ?? xoxo, Karin?????
Hi Heidi, Chris and family
I feel my husband and I should win this give away. We have been married for 19 years and I can not remember a time in those 19 years that we have been happy with our bodies. I enjoy working out and he does not. So I think we need something to bring us together in that area. But I have to admit as the primary cook in our house I am completely lost. I make the food I?ve grown up with. ( high everything). We have a child ( adopted) and he eats 5 things only and eats like a bird…. So I pray for an intervention on food, exercising, and personal help …
