If you love to sweat, and want to build strong legs and a firm butt – this workout is for you!!
Hey ladies!
I did the 9:15am bootcamp class today. It was an amazing workout – so good and so tiring, I needed help getting off the floor by the end of it. I love that feeling…. that feeling when you can say that you put it all out there, that you didn’t hold anything back and gave the workout your 110% best effort.
That’s when I realized how powerful my thoughts are!
We did a 1-mile run for our warm up. As I was nearing the finish, running towards to door, I felt myself start to slow down. In an instant, I thought to myself, “Why am I slowing down…? When I see that door handle, I should speed up and finish strong!” So I did. And that was my mindset during the entire workout. When I saw 10 seconds left on the clock for each exercise, I finished strong and fast. I had to reframe my attitude from, “Oh, I’ll stop now, only 5 seconds left” to “Only 5 seconds left to get as many reps in as I can!”
End result – I had one of the best workouts.
It’s all about your mindset. Everything you do. Everything you think. Everyone you meet. All of your experiences. How you choose to interpret those experiences. Everything is all about your mindset.
It’s the most important part to any person. And the best part is that it’s completely under your control. It’s completely in your hands. You control what you make of the things and people and places you experience. You control what kind of day you have. You control how you interpret and react to everything that happens around you. You. Not anyone else. You.
So much power exists in one simple thought. Your thoughts can make or break you, so what you nourish your mind with is crucial! Think positive, always. Look on the bright side of every situation. Be forgiving, but don’t forget. And choose your surrounding with care. Most importantly, believe in yourself and believe that you can do amazing things!

In celebration of Hallowe’en, WOFB is hosting a GLOW WORKOUT & Costume Contest for all ELITE members! Space is limited and will be on a first RSVP basis. To RSVP, comment below with full name. Also mention if you are bringing friend.

You’re sitting at a restaurant studying the menu, a little apprehensive about what to eat. You’ve just embarked on a fitness challenge and you know that eating out could slow your weight loss results if you’re not careful.
When the waiter comes you’re still deep in thought over what to order. “What can I get for you?” he asks with a smile. You look up and frown, no closer to arriving at a decision. On a whim you blurt out, “I’m trying to eat healthy but I have no idea what to order. What do you think I should eat?”
The young waiter looks startled but quickly rattles off his idea of a healthy meal. “The eggplant and roasted pepper pasta is filled with vegetables. You could get that with a salad.”
You smile. Yes, vegetables do sound healthy. So you order the veggie pasta with a side salad and a diet soda. Then the bread comes to the table and you figure, “Oh, a couple of pieces of bread won’t do any harm since I’ve ordered a salad and vegetables”.
Not surprisingly, you weigh in and are a little disappointed. Your weight has not moved enough for you to be satisfied despite the hard work you’re putting in, exercising regularly.
It is said that 80% of your weight loss results are derived from diet, and the remaining 20% from exercise—so you can see how important it is for you to stick with a healthy eating plan. Bread and pasta are dense foods, therefore high in calories. If you MUST eat them every now and then, you HAVE to consider the rest of the day’s meals to balance out your overall caloric/macronutrient intake.
Here’s Your Guide to Eating Out Healthy…
APPETIZERS
Appetizers are a great way to start out a leisurely meal, but can also quickly derail your good intentions.
Don’t Order:
Do Order:
BEVERAGES
Calories in drinks are sneaky because they don’t fill you up. This means that you end up taking in far more calories than you bargained for.
Don’t Order
Do Order
ENTREES
This is where the real damage is done. When you order something carb-loaded you leave the restaurant feeling heavy and lethargic—you may not even realize this until you start eating better and experience the light, energetic way you’ll feel after eating a healthy meal.
Don’t Order

LET’S STAY FOCUSED…TOGETHER!
