THANKS GIVING AND GIFT GIVING

In keeping with the theme of giving thanks and holiday gift giving which is suddenly upon us,  lets

think about giving a gift for health and wellness!  Buy a gift certificate for 10 classes at $80.00.  Or a gift certificate for one or more personal training sessions, starting at $50.00/session.   So for that person on your Christmas list who is incredibly hard to buy for,  who does not need any more
Diamonds, Gold , or Pearls.  The gift of exercise and personal training,  may be the just the right fit.
Thanks!  Mary Ann's Exercise

UP A TREE!

This weekend we had to vacate our house because the bedroom ceiling was being replaced,  whch turned out to be a lot more complicated.  However, that is a subject for another blog.  My cat had been out all night and yes, she was up a tree about 15 feet n the air and out on a limb.  I thought about callng the fire department, but then decided to do it myself.  With my husband holdng the ladder, I climbed shakily up.  I got to the second to last rung and was able to hug the tree with my left arm and reach for her with my right.  After several minutes of coaxing,  which seemed like hours,  I grabbed her and hugged her to my waist and climbed down the ladder.  We both made it unscathed, but I was never so scared in my life!  I guess balance really is a challenge when you need it!

ALMOST SUMMER!!

Believe it or not, it will be summer soon, with all the cook-outs, parties, and festivities!  Will you be ready and be pro-active against all this fun?  At Harwich Community Center, I can help you design a weight fitness program using machines and free weights.  This will help you build more muscle to burn more fat.  So you can party away and not have a care in the world!  So who do you know that is a summer resident of Harwich and would like a personalized fitness program?  That would be a great referral for me!

MARYANNS EXERCISE WHERE BALANCE IS THE CHALLENGE!

OLD SPRING CLOTHES

With the nice warm weather last week, I pulled out some of my spring clothes   I tried some on and they fit and even were a little loose(just a little)!  So this low carb diet is working!  I'm not being crazy.  I went to dinner one day last week and had rice and dessert, and this weekend I had ice cream and a small serving of mashed potatoes.  This way I don't feel deprived and won't go crazy.Today, I had protein for breakfast and salad with protein for lunch and will do protein and veggies for dinner.I did 2 miles of my jog/walk today and yoga.  I'll do my weights in the morning tomorrow and maybe a walk.  I may not have time tomorrow, but I can probably fit one in today ( a walk ).  Hope you all have a great week, and keep on exercising!

CARBOS.

It's really getting tough to stay in shape.  I'm still doing my interval training 1-2 times a week.    I

also increased weights to twice a week.  I also just read in my fit bit news that squats, lunges, planks, upright rows and one legged deadlifts are great to do.  I do squats and lunges, but need to add the rest.
I am also cutting way down on the carbohydrates  which of course turn right into sugar and fat.  I just started today, so I will report back in a few weeks and let you know how it goes. Until then, keep on exercising!
