You would be an amazing personal chef. Ever thought about doing something like that? I would buy some of these snacks already made, since they sound so good. I just wish I had the time and patience to make them.

Lauren,

I constantly think about how I could, not only make some kind of money making food, but more importantly teaching people and helping people do it on their own.

That's why I lean toward cooking classes.

Seriously, it's not that difficult!

At some point, would you give some ideas for a bare-bones, I-don't-want-to-workout-but-I-have-to kind of routine? :)

Mark Reifkind said...

zorbs,
this is mark, tracys husband. why don't you start where tracy did;
4 two minute sets of swings( any combinations) with 2 minute rests between sets?
4 sets and only 16 minutes total.Tracy spent a lot time in the beginning with this routine done only TWICE a week.
the key is NEVER missing workouts and pushing those two minute sets harder whenever you can.

I just can't think about eating beets :( The rest of it looks great though.

Hope your week is going well.

Tracy Reifkind said...

Colette,

Why? What did beets ever do to you? lol

Tracy,

Way cool workout, I can't wait to try the in person!

Tracy Reifkind said...

Fawn.

Yeah, this one was pretty straight forward. And since I've recommitted to yoga regularly, I can squat easier early in the morning, I've increased my flexiblity!
