All the small (and big) healthy choices you make will add up to a huge difference over time.

Thanks for the simple reminder – little things do add up! It will help me remember to stay positive and move and make little choices to be healthy!

Your hard work made it possible, Marie! There is nothing like consistent, long term exercise at the right intensity for making huge differences.

One of the many things I enjoyed about your style of training was your “moving targets”. Always adjusting and seeing success in small increments really motivated me!

Nancy, Good luck on your half! Be sure to let me know how you do – I’m super excited for you! Researchers and trainers alike now agree that it is during rest that the body “learns” what it is training to do, so it is a critical part of the process.

I like that you included rest Amy! It is important to recover from our training and to not feel guilty about it. I’m 54 and just ran my first 12 miles in preparation for my first half marathon in two weeks. I have finally learned to stop saying never! For years, I said I would never run such a long race and here I am, ready and excited to participate. Working with a personal trainer like you, gives people confidence to do what they never dreamed possible.

And I neglected to mention the long, lean, smooth look that such movement gives your muscles.

The focus required for Tai Chi quiets the mind, while the flow of the movement enhances balance and flexibility. So glad to hear you tried, and liked. something new.

I was in a rut with my routine of morning stretches. Then I started taking a Tai Chi class and it’s the perfect replacement. I like the gentle, smooth movements and the concentration it requires to learn the form. It’s a great way to start the day!
