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 don’t deserve to win any more or less than anyone else, but I’d love to! I just know that I need all the support I can get to achieve my goals and help the people around me. I’ve struggled with my weight since I was a child. I do not remember a time when I felt truly uninhibited by it. Not as an 8 year old in swimming lessons, or running through sprinklers at 10. Not auditioning for groups in high school or walking across the stage at college graduation. Not in relationships or developing my talents. I have let it dictate far too much in my life and I need to change that, but at 44 it is hard to even imagine what it might be like to be at a healthy weight. I love the Transform App because you and the community are so motivational, and it maps out a realistic, whole lifestyle change. It makes weight loss seem simple and do-able , but doesn’t say that it is easy. I want to use the Transform App to help me help myself, and to lead my whole family into a healthier lifestyle, especially @mypaljeremy. Jeremy is my brother, who was born with Down syndrome. Just last month, at 33 years old, he had a stroke that has (very luckily) left him nearly blind in one eye. We know that lifestyle changes must happen to reduce his chances for further problems. I know that the Transform App can help us to help ourselves, and with lifetime subscriptions, we could do it together. I’d love the opportunity to do that with the amazing @mypaljeremy for a long, long time!
Thank you so much for a chance to win a life changing opportunity! I have never been severely overweight, but was a chunky kid and weight loss and maintaining a healthy weight has consistently been a struggle for 30 years. It has been quite the roller coaster ride. I would love to learn from you, so that I could help others along in their journey. I would love to share this with my brother the most!
I am just restarting my fitness journey. I have started and restarted a couple more than a few times. I am motivated with no buts now. A lifetime membership to your fitness?s app would help give me extra motivation on the days that my 12 hour shifts as a nurse, followed by caring for my children leave me so tired I don?t want to work out. The recipe ideas would help me meal prep and plan on the go, during the short lunch breaks I get, helping me be prepared to grocery shop in my spare time. All combined with my heard work will help me live a better lifestyle and be motivation for my children and those around me.
Hello Heidi and Chris. After going thru so much lose in my life, both good and bad, I’ve learned from your inspiration and motivation that things can only get better. During hurricane sandy I lost almost everything in my home. It took years to rebuild our lives to get back to a stable lifestyle. But having lost almost everything I realized that the stuff we had, wasn’t worth the value of having life, family and friends. This lose, though heart wrenching brought so much good too my life. It centered me with God. It brought me closer to my then boyfriend who later became my husband. It made me focus on bettering me. I had lost over 150lbs prior to this. And after having my baby using your motivation and advice I once again lost 75lbs. After losing my job you inspired me that following my dreams relentlessly in developing my own business I could make anything possible. I would love to invest in the program but every penny counts right now. I’m at a plateau in my weight loss journey but with your coaching and motivation I know that I can reach my goals and inspire others the way that you’ve inspired me. You see I’ve learned that thru great loss sometimes it might be outward loss, but the gains within, are so much greater! Hoping that you will become my lifetime coach along with my favorite workout partner my husband, Sherwin. @fit2inspireyou @mago139
I d love to win this for myself and my teenage daughter!! I?ve watched you guys on tv and now on Instagram for years and you are both so encouraging and empowering to others! I am currently in the middle of a divorce after almost 24 years of marriage, and I need a positive reset in life!! I need to lose half my body weight and I want to teach my teenage daughter how to get healthy for life. I can only do that if I model that behavior myself and I need help and a like-minded community behind me in order to be successful! Plus finances are tight and winning this would be so amazing!! Thank you!!
I would love to win the lifetime giveaway! I was subscribed but had to cancel due to funds. Y’all are so motivational and I always look forward to that time in the day when I get to catch up and learn more. Crossing fingers I get picked because I tell everyone about you and know they’d be more than thrilled to join in with me!
I?ve watched your show, I?ve bought your books, and currently I am on ?Pause? with the Transform app.
I am 54 years old and in menopause and am in desperate need for personal coaching. I have put weight on over the last 4/5 Year?s and really would L?VE to design my body similar to Heidi?s and show that a 54yr. Old can start from a menopause frumpy body and get to a fit sexy well toned, well defined physic.
Thank you for considering me. ?
I would like to tag my best friend of 20 yrs. Carie Gress. She has always struggled with her weight due to stress, an accidental death of her husband leaving her with a five-year-old boy to raise, years later to have married again and have that man cheat on her. Etc…. I would love to see her feel beautiful again.
I have lost 65 pounds since Christmas but I still weigh 311 pounds. I need your help.
Oh, goodness!
I have used the app now for a little over a year. I have had a few people come up to me and ask me questions about getting into shape and nutrition. I always point them to the ?Transform App?.
Recently my daughter, who just turned 13, has started to workout. Just last month I signed her up with the ?Transform App?. Her and I now both go to the gym and workout. I would really enjoy this lifetime subscription for her and I.
Thank you for all you guys do and the information that you have made available for a very reasonable price!
Hi there, my name is Monika and I would love to win this giveaway. Last year was a ruff year for my family. I was diagnosed with colon cancer and went through chemo and 3 surgeries. Prior to my diagnosis I had just competed in my first NPC competition. 2 months later I was in the hospital fighting for my life. Like you can imagine, I wasn?t able to keep my fitness level. All my hard work was gone. So the chemo and treatments actually made me gain 20 lbs that I can?t seem to shed now. I feel like I?m starting at square 1. I would be forever grateful for the opportunity to have the transformation app. I don?t have the financial means to buy the membership or higher a trainer. I feel that the app would give me the resources I need to get me back to the place I was. Thank you for your consideration!
