10 Tips for Mom's to Make Time for Fitness!!

Boy oh Boy! I know how tough it can be to try and squeeze in a workout each day while raising a little one & keeping up with life. But there is a way!!! I can pretty much guarantee you will feel happier, more energized and healthier by doing so!! So you can spend even more time with the ones you love :) . 

Here are my TOP 10 Tips for Mom's to Make Time for Fitness!! 

Share to a Mommy Friend that would find this useful! 



1. First Things First- Work out before the day gets away from you.

2. Block It Out- If you have an appointment on your calendar, chances are you show up. That same tactic helps with your fitness schedule! If I set aside specific times in my planner, they feel more like an appointment I have to keep!

3. Have a Plan for How You’ll Sweat- Once you’ve penciled in your workout, don’t forget to think about what you’ll actually do once you get the time!!

4. Don’t Worry About Your Outfit - If your in your PJ's and you get an extra 20 minutes, don't waste time trying to figure out what to wear :p

5. Include Your Kids- It’s hard to find dedicated “alone time” as a parent — but do you really need it? Plop your baby in a baby backpack or have fun doing squats while holding your toddler ! Just don't forget proper form !



6. Make the Jungle Gym/Park Your Bootcamp - Test out the monkey bars, chase your kids around the park, try tricep dips or step ups off the bench !

7. Be a Workout Ninja- If it so happens that each day your workouts don't fall at the same time, take it upon yourself to sneak in mini workouts when you can! 5 minutes is better then none!

8. Don’t Beat Yourself Up- Let’s face it, life happens in the form of sick days, tantrums and gigantic messes that won’t clean themselves. Being a parent is tough work! Life will happen, but as long as you give your "A" game when you can that's all that matters!

9. Get a Mommy Workout Buddy!! Go for a stroll around the block with a neighbour or your partner! Make this a daily routine.

10. Get some Accountability!! If you are looking for some extra motivation or support message me!! I would love to help you!!

December Coach Internship

Take this as YOUR sign !!




I have officially opened up registration for my December Health & Fitness Coach Internship group ! This opportunity is for ANYONE who is passionate , driven, loves health & fitness & social media ! 

Just over a year ago I found this opportunity through Instagram and it has completely changed my life. I make a full time career income from home , while raising my daughter and doing something I love every single day : Helping people !! Working less then 2 hours a day so I can focus my life around what really matters: my family ! 


Check out @christinakleinfitness on Instagram for my journey !



Through my 18 months as a coach I have: 

created a prosperous career

travelled with this company ( earned free tropical trips )

helped hundreds of ladies become healthy, fit and confident

mentored over 150 other ladies /mom's / college students to start fitness businesses


made the most incredible friendships

have become the healthiest and happiest I've ever been in my life

gained confidence, passion and independence

I never in a million years would have pictured myself running a successful business at 26 and being my own CEO !

The best part of it all... is being able to pass all of this on to other woman. To mentor , empower, support , cheer on and help other ladies do the same. You do not need any experience in the field, you by no means have to be in the best shape and you do not need to invest everything you own to get started. All you need is a positive attitude, the desire to help others and excitement to make 2016 your best year EVER !



If you are the least bit interested or would like me to fill you in with more details EMAIL christinakleinfitness@gmail.com 

I can't wait to chat more with you and to meet my new #girlboss girlfriends!!!

Ingredients:
1 Bunch of Kale

1 Tsp Sea Salt
1 Tbs Olive Oil
  1. Directions: 1. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a non insulated cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  1. 2. With a knife or kitchen shears carefully remove the leaves from the thick stems and tear into bite size pieces. Wash and thoroughly dry kale with a salad spinner. Drizzle kale with olive oil and sprinkle with seasoning salt.3. Bake until the edges brown but are not burnt, 10 to 15 minutes.Enjoy !!!
