I've realized there is some confusion when posting a comment to the blog. I think I figured it out to make it as easy as possible for us to stay in touch during the week. Use the following steps and let me know if it doesn't work
1. Under the blog article click on the comments link (it should say 0 comments, 1 comments etc. etc.
2. A new screen will pop up with a place to type your question or comment.
3. You will need to select a profile to post your comment to the blog. Here you have two options. A) Select the name/URL option and only enter your name in the Name box
B) Type your name in the same block that you asked your question and select your profile as anonymous. This should display your name with in the message of your question.
4. Sorry for the confusion. I hope this helps clear it up. I'm hoping the blog can serve us well over the next 7 weeks. Thanks again

Nutrition is key
Great job today everyone! One workout down. I hope you are all feeling great today and are as excited as I am about the next 8 weeks. Remember a little soreness is normal so just make sure you are drinking water taking care of yourself as this can help the soreness subside more quickly. You will notice over the next few weeks that each workout will progress in difficulty but your body will respond quickly and with less recovery time needed between workouts.
A couple quick things to get you on track. Keep this in mind during our Challenge. Whether you are trying to lose weight, tone up, or just feel better. Nutrition is key. The workouts are important but what you are putting into your body the other 23 hours a day is extremely important.
When thinking about nutrition, try to:
1. Eat whole natural foods - fruits, veges, etc. etc
2. Cut out most if not all processed simple sugars like cookies, cakes, etc.
3. Avoid high fructose corn syrup and trans fats.
4. If the food grows on a tree, bush or in the ground or if it ran, swam or flew it's probably safe to eat.
5. Watch your portion sizes - think Plate Method
6. Drink water and cut out the sodas, fruit juices and other non-essential liquid calories.
Our workouts are designed to increase your metabolism, build strength, cardiovascular endurance, power and burn tons of calories. Make sure your eating helps and doesn't hinder this process. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Oh, You can visit my own site http://www.getfitcarlisle.com/ for this week's "fitness blueprint" I post a new one every Monday on my site. I'll put a video on here as well for you to follow.
