Summer Fitness Challenge: July & August 2018

Summer Fitness ChallengeSummer Fitness Challenge: Let’s Do This!

The summer fitness challenge begins on Sunday. Through July and August the goal is to MOVE, MOVE, MOVE. Kind of a replay of May the move it more challenge.

We just returned from a fun vacation with 3 of our youngest granddaughter’s. We went to Southern California and spent most of our time walking around Hollywood, the Santa Monica pier and Venice Beach. Plus Universal Studios.

I think I walked over 15,000 steps a day. It was painful at times but I made it. I like city walking much better than country walking that is for sure.

An awesome day had by all at the Santa Monica Pier yesterday #santamonica #santamonicapier #california #cali #californiatrip #californiavacation #californiaadventures #californialove #socal #visitcalifornia #greatoutdoors #outdooradventures

I think walking that much really helped ease my back pain so I really need to get back to moving more every day. We came home and then I got a sinus infection and have been coughing like crazy. I’m on the back end of it now and ready to get moving the remainder of the summer.

Hunter at 2 monthsI know many of you are waiting on an update on our grandson Hunter. He turned 2 months old while we were away on vacation. And for those that don’t know, our grandson was born early at 27 weeks. He continues to grow (he’s over 5 lbs) and work on his lungs.

We sure appreciate all the prayers and ask that you continue with them. I sit with him a couple hours twice a week at the hospital. Those two days I spend about 4 hours in the car to and from the hospital. It’s so worth it but we really can’t wait for him to come home!

I apologize for not keeping up and pushing you all to keep going with the challenges. It’s been a tough year but I’m hoping to be back in the game.

My goals for July & August:

  • Walk more (in the home gym mostly doing Walk Away the Pound videos)
  • Mini Trampoline
  • Strength training (start light so I don’t overdo it)
  • Get more sleep (5 of my tips for better sleep!)

Speaking of sleep, my friend/client Kelly owner of FitFluential did a great Facebook Live on the topic of sleep. Take a listen.

Kev and I really want a Sleep Number® bed (the 360 i8 looks perfect for us). We have had an iComfort for quite a few years but it’s time for a big change where we can customize each side of the bed for ourselves. Santa come quick!

And check out this article my friend and co-worker Lauren from FitFluential wrote.
