Now on to other matters.  I have started putting little simple tips on my facebook page which I will then transition onto mytrainerbob because what I have decided is that people need motivation and that is my job, to keep you motivated so what I want to start doing is just give you a little tip that you can think about as you go through your day and just keep your “head in the game”.  Some tips might work for you and others won’t but what is important for you to know is that I’m here for you and I’m thinking about what I can do to get you motivated and keep you motivated.  I want us to work together.  Today’s tip was try a group fitness class at your gym today if you have access to a gym.  I love group fitness because I think that “misery loves company” hahaha!!  Seriously, it keeps me going to be in a class where there are other people doing exactly what I’m doing at the time.  Like I mentioned earlier, I love teaching my spin class but I also love taking spin classes.  I like getting in there with really loud music, sweaty dark room and just zone out and be left in a pool of sweat.  It keeps me going.  So try something different this week and try taking that class that you thought you would NEVER do for whatever reason.  If anything you could get a really good laugh and laughter really is the best medicine.

Have a great rest of your day and I will talk soon..
