It’s time to get moving.
No, I mean really moving. I mean move like you mean it.
I have a formula that will get you into the shorts that are tight around the waist, the blouse that the sleeves are uncomfortable, the pants that just feel too tight around your bum.

But you have to challenge yourself. When I say ‘challenge yourself’, I don’t mean that you have to start doing crazy pull ups and burpees like me. I know I’m a little over the top. What I mean is that you have to just do a little more than you did the day before.
If a workout doesn’t challenge you, it won’t change you…
Your body needs a new stimulus to change. If you expect change and do the same thing over and over, well, that’s just the definition of insanity.
I have a new program called Challenge Fat Loss. Now it sounds pretty tough, and it is, but it’s only as tough as you make it.
It’s all follow along videos and I coach you every step of the way. My other coaches, Brian and Sean and I will show all the ways to modify and intensify each exercise.
You need to make it the challenge that’s right for you, we provide the workout and motivation. You decide how much you can safely do at your fitness level. It’s a winning combination to get you into last year’s wardrobe.
You’ll feel so good though, you’ll want to buy some new summer clothes
Here’s a video with a challenge you can try:
I don’t use age as an excuse for belly fat.
My new M2A method of training helps beat belly fat. If you increase lean muscle tone, you’ll increase resting metabolic rate. You’ll do short intense workouts that create after burn so you’ll burn calories long after your workout is over.
Here’s the workout in the video:
Do 30 seconds of work with a 5 second transition:
sit outs (do mountain climbers or jumping jacks)
plank reach
prisoner squat jumps (or squats)
push up shoulder touch (kneeling squats)
prisoner reverse lunge
Repeat up to 6 times.
Find out more about Challenge Fat Loss and how M2A can help you get ‘beach’ ready just in time for summer.
