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.

2 years ago I had a phrolactic mastectomy and ovary removal which through me into medical menopause. Three months later I lost my 39 year old brother to pancreatic cancer and since then my weight has spiraled out of control. When I was 24 (39 now) I weighed 262 pounds and over years of dieting and exercising I lost over 110 pounds. I stayed the same weight for some time and then decided to lose the rest, 26 more pounds down…. and then when all this happened I gained it right back. I’m desperate to get it back off. I lift weights on a consistent basis and eat fairly healthy, but I really need more guidance on the amount of food and what macros I should be following. I’ve tried carb cycling before (read all of you guys book) but end up getting confused and frustrated. I would love to win the app for a year to help me get back to a place of being comfortable in my own skin. I however cannot tag anyone on facebook/Instagram since I really don’t have any friends or family thay exercise/follow fitness. It’s just me in the battle against me.
I have been loving what the Transform App has been doing for me. As a full-time working mom in her 40s it is hard to get time for me. I let everything come before my own health. With this app I can do killer workouts in my own basement and I can see results happening already in the 8 weeks I have used it. I want to finallyyyy lose the extra weight I have been carrying the last 6 years, build muscle and firm up and overall become more confident in my own skin.
First off, thank you for this opportunity to throw this out there for a chance to win. I follow you on Instagram and love all of your posts/ stories of your life. You have a beautiful family and you seem like such a REAL person that shares so much of yourself to the world. Like yourself, I have a big family with 2 children, 3 future step children, and a fur child( puppy Baylee). Having a big family and all the responsibilities that come along with this has left me with little to no energy with consistency struggles. If I won this entry I would be so blessed to start my new lifestyle journey. I believe in being a positive role model like yourself to my children. We must set these behaviors of self love with food and lifestyle habits to our children. In order to take care of them all we need to take care of ourselves as well. So pick me to help me jumpstart my new journey.
I would love to win this membership to share with my mom.
My entire family has struggled with weight for a long time. Recently my mom had a health scare and it has made all of us take a hard look in the mirror and realize some the changes we need to make starting with exercise and healthy eating. I have followed the transform app from the beginning, and have told my mom about carb cycling. Its something we both feel would work for us. It would be amazing to share this with her
How generous! Would love to win this for my hubby and I. We always have to wait for sales as the app isn?t in our budget, yet we feel like we can?t live without it!
This took a while to scroll down because you have so many followers and continue to inspire thousands of people everyday. My self included. I love your transform app not only because I?ve found results but when I need a pick-me-up your life coaching is key. Thanks for being a great role model! And yes? I?d LOVE to win a lifetime membership!!
I have watched my gran diet, my mom diet, my aunties my cousins- all diet. Gain weight lose weight gain lose. Neverending cycle of unhappiness, judgement and low self esteems. I myself now have kids ( 2 yrs and one is months). I dont want them to grow up thinking and seeing me go through the same things and watching me beat myself up with negative self talk creating no self worth. I know what to do i just cant seem to do it. If i was rich i would hire someone to pretty much follow me around and make my meals, pump me up all day and slap my hand when i try to eat bad. I would love the opportunity to have access to a family friendly program like this and change my families life and create a new mindset around eating and healthy living before the bad habits get ingrained in my babies. Love what you guys do and how you support everyone. You’re truly special people.
You guys inspire so many people!!! I am a trainer and totally agree with what you said once about having someone else to tweak you!! That is why I would love this opportunity!! I need a tweak!! ?
I?ve tried various programs and it?s time to truly Transform my health and wellness!?
I have been struggling with consistency for awhile and love to try new things. Having access to an app that has multiple different programs as well as recipes and nutrition guides takes out all and any planning I need to do. Just follow the program and I have no excuses. I?d love to win the lifetime access to the Tranform App!
