Butt and Ball Workout

 

I am a part of a great workout community called www.SparkPeople.com.  This is a community of people that come together to journal about their health  and encourage one another. 

You can create your own webpage, visit all the forums, watch exercise videos, chart your fitness workouts, chart your eating habits and so much more.

I am presently working on getting my lower body back in shape after being out of commission for so long. 

I found this great 6 minute workout for the lower body here

I just finished the workout and man are my legs feelin’ it!!  It feels good!  I am very excited about these little videos (you can print them off as well) as they are short and concise and work well!

Try it…you’ll like it!

Let me know if you sign up with Spark People….we can be friends!

To your health,

Sandy

Welcome

Welcome to Sparked Up Fitness where you will find me rambling about all things healthy.  You will find articles on the latest fitness craze, healthy recipes, proper supplementation, workout tips, fitness challenges, and anything related to fitness that strikes my fancy.

I have been in the fitness industry since I was 9 years old….yes, I said 9.  I started at 9 as a competitive gymnast.  I worked my way up (all 25 hours a week, every week) to being an Elite Gymnast.  I was training for the 1984 Olympic team when my knee decided to give way and end my career.

At the age of 14 I thought my life was over.  I new nothing else but the gym! What was I going to do with my time now? 

Fast forward 30 years…..I am now a happily married stay at home mother of 5. I do fitness and nutritional coaching on the side.  I am no expert…just have lots of years of experience.

My goal is to be healthy physically, spiritually, emotionally, and financially. I love helping others to their goals as well.  I have coached many over the years with great success. 

I hope you will find great resources here as well as a nurturing community of friends that you can get to know on your journey to better health.

To your health,

Sandy
