Spring Into Fitness With Support and Motivation From a Busy Woman Like You!!!



"Spring into Fitness" Challenge Group


Don't you know that summer bodies are made in the winter?  There is approximately 12 weeks until June.  The time when everyone is ready to go to the beach.  The stores are starting to put summer clothes out even though it's 30 degrees outside.  This is the sign that summer is coming and now is the time to start preparing.

Now, is the perfect time to start.  Every time you make a healthy choice you are closer to your summer body.  So, when you are ready to have a dessert, stop and think about that bathing suit you want to wear in June.  Think about it, 12 weeks is not a long time and it takes 21 days to create a new habit, 8 weeks to see change and 12 weeks for others to notice!! So, make the commitment now to start making progress toward June!!  If you wait until May, like I have in the past, it's too late and very frustrating and you will try unhealthy approaches to losing weight. Take ACTION today!








Start Your Healthy Journey

I am getting ready to kick start my Spring into Fitness support and accountability group on March 7th and another group on March 28th.  My goal is get as many women ready for summer without stressing out, without feeling restricted and view this as lifestyle change instead of a diet.  I want to show you how to fit exercise into your busy schedule and make meal planning as painless as possible.

Healthy Snack Ideas


Are you tired of eating the same snacks everyday and would like a change?  There are days, I can eat cucumber and hummus everyday and other days I want something different.  Before you get to that point where you run out of options, look at this list.

Some may ask, if I am trying to lose weight, why are snacks important? Our bodies need fuel to function properly and small snacks throughout the day will help our body function properly and help us to reach our weight loss goals.  A person should aim to eat every 2 to 3 hours and depending on your weight loss goals the calories for snacks varies.

Here is a short list of healthy snacks to help you satisfy your body and reach your goals!!


  • 1 apple and 12 to 14 raw almonds
  • 1 medium cucumber and 1 - 2 tsp hummus - my favor is Boar's Head Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
  • Protein shake - 1 scoop vanilla or chocolate protein powder, 12 - 14 ounces and frozen fruit
  • Shakeology
  • Raw pecan halves and 1 green apple
  • Turkey slices, low sodium, nitrate-free (minimally processed) and homemade honey mustard dip (yellow mustard mixed with a drizzle honey)
  • 1 apple and 2 tsp almond butter
  • 1 cup 1% plain Greek yogurt, 1 large banana, sliced and 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Lettuce, turkey slices and red bell pepper
  • 2 plain  unsalted brown rice cakes with 1 - 2 tbsp all natural peanut butter 
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt with 1/2  cup strawberry or other berries with 1 tsp raw honey to add sweetness. 
I hope you find a variety of snacks to help you fuel your body for weight loss and performance!!

The Master's Hammer & Chisel Available December 1st

I am SUPER EXITED for the new fitness program.  I feel this program is a game changer.  Since I have On Demand, I will get access to the workouts and nutrition plan before it arrives to my house.  The challenge pack comes with 30 days of On Demand access, so you can start the program immediately. 

Are you Ready???

I'm kicking off an EXCLUSIVE HAMMER AND CHISEL LAUNCH PARTY  starting December 7th - You need to be part of this group.  Hit me up for details. Complete form for more information!!!

What is The Master’s Hammer and Chisel™?

 For the very first time, trainers Sagi Kalev and Autumn Calabrese have teamed up to create an expert program designed to help you craft a powerful, perfectly defined body. The Master’s Hammer and Chisel is an innovative resistance training system that incorporates three muscle-sculpting phases—Stabilization, Strength, and Power—or SSP Training. This is how Sagi and Autumn help you efficiently build, chisel, and refine a masterpiece physique in just 60 days.





About your Trainers

 Co-creators Sagi Kalev and Autumn Calabrese are experts when it comes to incredible physical transformations. Sagi has been crowned Mr. Israel— twice—and is a Master Professional Personal Trainer, IFBB Pro, member of the IFBB Propta Hall of Fame, Certified Nutrition Specialist, and Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist. Autumn Calabrese is a celebrity trainer, best-selling author, and working mom who has held certifications from the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and the American Fitness Professionals & Associates (AFPA), and has competed at the national level in various bikini competitions.

What makes The Master’s Hammer and Chisel incredibly effective and unique?

 The Master’s Hammer and Chisel is built on the three phases of SSP Training— Stabilization, Strength, and Power. Other workouts only focus on one or two phases, which might give you decent results. But The Master’s Hammer and Chisel program incorporates all three methods to help you relentlessly chip away fat and carve every muscle for a strong, visually stunning body in 60 days.

 • 12 brand-new, 30- to 40-minute workouts that combine Sagi and Autumn’s proven techniques for 60 days of hardcore resistance training.

 • Sagi and Autumn make eating for your goals simple. That’s why they included their easy-to-follow and completely customizable nutrition plan, along with 7 portion-control containers that show you how to portion out the right amount of food to help you reach your unique fitness goals.

• Flexible nutrition that allows you to lean out, sculpt and maintain, or build muscle.

• Includes options to adapt certain exercises if you have limited access to equipment. 

• Includes a modifier who demonstrates some moves at a lower intensity.


Team Beachbody® Exclusive Workout: The Master’s Cardio

Ever wonder what Sagi and Autumn’s favorite cardio moves are? Find out as they tag-team this challenging workout that will get you shredded fast!  You can only get this workout when you purchase through a coach which is ME!!  So, if you don;t have an account or a coach, make sure you go here and sign up!!

A few dumbbells, a bench or stability ball, and a chin-up bar or resistance band with a door attachment kit.  I have several dumbbells and they range from 2 to 40 lbs.  

Other options: 

1. Stability Ball 
2. Red Resistance Band 
3. Door Attachment
4. 8-lb. Medicine Ball


Nutritional supplements

Q. How does The Master’s Hammer and Chisel differ from Body Beast®? 

Body Beast is a bodybuilding program that focuses on muscular hypertrophy. The Master’s Hammer and Chisel includes aspects of bodybuilding, but also focuses on improving endurance, power, agility, strength, balance, and range of motion to sculpt a tight, defined physique.

Q. How does The Master’s Hammer and Chisel differ from 21 Day Fix EXTREME®? 

21 Day Fix EXTREME is a shorter, goal-specific program, whereas The Master’s Hammer and Chisel is a full 60-day program with slightly longer workouts. 21 Day Fix EXTREME focuses on getting you shredded, while The Master’s Hammer and Chisel also helps you improve other aspects of your fitness, such as muscular endurance, power, strength, and agility. It’s a whole new approach to getting you ripped.

Q. What equipment do you need for The Master's Hammer and Chisel? 

• A few dumbbells of various weights appropriate to your strength and fitness level.
• A bench or stability ball. • A chin-up bar or a resistance band and a door attachment.

Q. How does The Master’s Hammer and Chisel nutrition plan compare to Body Beast, 21 Day Fix®, and 21 Day Fix EXTREME? 

Like the nutrition plans in 21 Day Fix and 21 Day Fix EXTREME, The Master’s Hammer and Chisel uses the portion control container system. However, it is tailored to meet your specific goals and the nutritional demands that a challenging body-sculpting program like The Master’s Hammer and Chisel requires.

Q. Can you customize The Master’s Hammer and Chisel nutrition plan to meet your unique goals? 

Yes! If you want to gear your nutrition toward building more muscle (a surplus), or toward shredding fat (a deficit), you can use the Nutrition Plan Quiz to recalculate your calories to help you reach your goals.

Q. How do the calorie charts for The Master’s Hammer and Chisel work? 

The Nutrition Plan Quiz included in the program and nutrition guide will determine your appropriate calorie chart based on your goals. Like the calorie breakdowns in 21 Day Fix and 21 Day Fix EXTREME, the ones in The Master’s Hammer and Chisel Program and Nutrition Guide also include the number of color-coded, portion-control containers your bracket requires each day to meet your goals.

Q. How does the 60-day calendar work? 

The Master’s Hammer and Chisel program is a 60-day rotation of hardcore strength training built on the three phases of SSP Training—Stabilization, Strength, and Power. Sagi and Autumn strategically structured these workouts to train in all three phases efficiently, so following the calendar is important.

Q. How does the Beachbody Performance™ line fit in to the program? 

Because these workouts are so demanding, we highly recommend you consider adding Beachbody Performance supplements to your regimen to help support your energy, muscle-building, and recovery.* Instructions for incorporating Beachbody Performance into your nutrition regimen are included in The Master’s Hammer and Chisel Program and Nutrition Guide.

Q. Is there a Team Beachbody exclusive if customers order The Master’s Hammer and Chisel through me? 

Yes! Customers who purchase The Master’s Hammer and Chisel through you will get a FREE bonus workout—The Master’s Cardio (a $19.95 value)! When Sagi and Autumn want tough, fat-chiseling cardio, The Master’s Cardio DVD includes their go-to moves.
