I LOVE MY JOB!

As most of you know, I am a personal trainer and work primarily with seniors in their homes.  It's so great to able to drive to a house, pull out my equipment and set up anywhere!  I recently got a new client who lives in a beautiful home right on the water!
As I wheeled my suitcase with my bosu ball propped on it,  it was so nice to see him sitting in his kitchen with his wife, family and dogs(who were barking at me of course!)  I can go into that warm home and make a difference.  My client has spinal stenosis and is in a lot of pain.  He tends to walk stooped over, so I'm working on strengthening his upper back and shoulders.  I'm also working on his balance and posture.  The bosu is for leg strengthening and balance.  It's so cool to be able to go anywhere and be able to set up my gym in any home!  Have a great weekend everyone and enjoy this beautiful Fall weather!

FAMILY REUNION!!

On Monday September 15th, the Willey family was all together!  It has been almost five years.  The last time we were all together was for my Mom's funeral which will be five years ago this October.  We all met up in Franklin, Mass at a terrific restaurant called Incontro!  It was pretty much a central location for all of us.  My brother Matt and his wife Loni drove the longest, two hours from the Berkshires.  They live in Virginia, so that's why we have not been all together for so long.  So it was me and my four brothers, my hubby and my nephew back together again!  It was great fun and I posted a picture of us on facebook!  We are truly the land of the giants!  I'm the smallest at 5feet 9inches.  The rest are 6 feet, 6 feet four and five!  My hubby and nephew were the smallest.  We have to make the effort to stay in touch.  I am going to try to e-mail once a month.  In this crazy-busy world it's really vital to remember who is really important- God, family and friends.

GREAT WEEKEND WOMAN'S WALKING RETREAT!

Hi!  I had a great weekend and a very busy Monday, so I wasn't able to post yesterday.
Today I am up and ready to go after a terrific weekend and a great retreat with my Life
Coach/Business Coach Helen Kosinski.  We started at Nickerson State Park at 9:30.
There were six of us-all very interesting people.  The theme was stepping into our dream lives.  Most of us realized that we were already partly living our dreams lives.
All of us doing what we want to do and happy with our partners.  I realized that I want to be a writer someday(which I am right now)  I also just published an article about one of my clients and it's in my fitness journal.  I'm very excited!  So I'm on my way!
My personal training business is humming along too!  It was a day to contemplate, meditate and relax, which I don't do very often.  So google Helen at betterthanevercoaching.  She has another retreat this weekend!

SEPTEMBER- BACK TO SCHOOL,WORK,ROUTINES

Here we are again in September!  While you are getting back to school and work,
why not start an exercise program!  Starting today I will be teaching a fun, low impact
aerobics class at Harwich Community Center.  The time is 8:30 in the morning on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  The cost is $10.00/class or 2/$15.00.  We do 25 minutes of
fat burning aerobics and 25 minutes of abdominal work on the exercise ball.  If You don't have a ball there are some available at the community Center.  However not many, so bring a ball and have a ball!  This program combined with healthy eating will
help you lose weight.  Not only that, it's fun and stress relieving.  I also have great music!
