2 years ago, 8mos. pregnant with baby #4, I knew I needed a plan. A plan that would allow me to stay home with my baby and contribute to the household income. Some of my most highly respected mentors in the fitness industry were talking about this Beachbody coaching. So, I took a peek. I have never looked back. Working PART TIME from home around my kids' schedule has allowed me to create a full time income that pays our mortgage, car payment, groceries, and so much more. And the best part is that I am so in ❤️ with everything about coaching!! I'm opening up my September new coach mentorship to 5 women who are: 🔹Ready to call the shots and create their own destiny 🔹Have a passion for health and fitness and helping others! 🔹Are focused, no excuses kind of ladies who are committed to building their dream life 🔹Are coachable and ready to be a part of something so much BIGGER than they ever dreamed 🔹 Ready to earn $500-$1000/mo. in your first few months with just 1-2 hours/day (Nice little nest egg in time for Christmas, perhaps?) TOMORROW night, my team is hosting a LIVE Facebook event to show you exactly what we do as Beachbody coaches! This is a 1-hour, no obligation, no pressure, FUN event where we will make sure all your questions are answered and give you a behind the scenes sneak peek at coaching, including what our day looks like, how we earn our weekly paycheck, what we do and DON'T do as coaches, and bust common myths surrounding network marketing. MESSAGE ME for the details if you are a motivated mama who wants to make an income from home with your kiddos while helping your friends and family get healthy! I love working with focused ladies who want to create a better future for their families. #TeamRockstarFit #buildyourdream #entrepreneur

Campground workout: Get up before everyone else (no matter how many beers you had last night), find a hill, sprint up, walk down...for 2 miles. BAM! I brought by earbuds but never ended up using them. Instead, I paid attention to the scurrying Pika's (rabbit-like creature), the chirping birds, the cute squirrels, my breath. There's so much to be seen and heard if we just pay attention. Now for mimosas and waterfalls. #noexcuses #bettereveryday (at Ainsworth State Park)

I am quite the hummus connoisseur lately. This one is pretty tasty! This brand also makes a beet hummus, which is next on my list. 😜

Surefire way to get the kids out of the house: "I'm taking my preworkout and if you're still here by the time it kicks in, you're working out with me!" 😜😜😜. It did the trick! I'm loving this new 'Energize' to give me an edge during my workouts. It helps me push harder, longer and go the extra distance to do more WORK ==> hence, better RESULTS! Message me if you need an extra kick in your workouts. 💪🏼

FIT TIP FRIDAY: Why strength train? Here's a good reason. After the age of 30, we all lose a quarter pound of muscle mass each year. Yikes! With less muscle, our metabolism slows down and we gain fat—averaging about 15 pounds a decade. While muscle is metabolically active (each pound of muscle burns approximately 35 to 50 calories per day), stored fat is not, burning far fewer calories. The more muscle you have, the more calories you burn throughout the day, whether you're walking, vacuuming . . . even sleeping! What's more, while aerobic activity burns fat during exercise, weight training utilizes fat hours after exercising, so your metabolism stays slightly elevated for a longer period of time following a strength-training session than following an aerobic workout. And that, my friends, is why we lift. 💪🏼

Ladies: Do you want to know the secret to melting fat, revving up your metabolism so that you burn more calories all day long, and tightening up that stubborn muffin top and soft tush? The answer is in the iron. STRENGTH TRAINING! There are so many benefits to strength training, (weight lifting, resistance training, pumping iron), not the least of which is a toned physique! Don’t be afraid to lift weights. Heavy weights. We don’t have the genetic makeup to get bulky, so grab those dumbbells and get to work! #girlswithmuscle #girlswholift (at facebook.com/shellygonzalesfitness)

DONE! Won't get the butt we want by sitting on the one we have, right? All it takes is 30 minutes (if you do it right). 😍 Hope my legs don't give out in the shower! #21DFX (at Shelly's Backyard Bootcamp)

Do you ever just sit there in a F-U-N-K and don't feel like doing anything? What are the first things that come to mind that help you snap out of it? Mine are: Vacuuming and exercise (not necessarily in that order) 😜 Already did the vacuuming (under the couch cushions, too! Very therapeutic). Now I need an A$$ kicking workout. My backyard is calling my name! (at Shelly's Backyard Bootcamp)

Didn't break any records, but we just lapped everyone who hit snooze! 😜👊🏼 #nikeplus #5K (at Starbucks)

You had me at 'Sriracha', lost me at 'carrot' and pulled me back in with 'sunflower seeds and apricots'. #illtryanythingonce

My workout time is not about getting it done so I can check it off my list. It's about finding out how deep I can dig, how much I can push, how hard I can challenge myself. I love to take it outside on a hot day so I can see the sweat drip off my nose and leave sweat angels on the mat. I want to be hunched over, gasping for air. I want to have to press pause to catch my breath. I want my water bottle to be empty by the time I'm done. I strive to earn my shower. And during that post-workout high when I can sit/lay down and stretch and breathe and clear my head and feel so proud of myself for leaving it all in the floor... that is the icing on the cake. Do you do it to get it done or do you really enjoy it? (In my entire life I've met maybe a handful of people who live for their daily workout because they love it deep in their soul). #T25 #fitmama #happymama #thisismyfightsong (at Shelly's Backyard Bootcamp)

☀️Never miss a Monday!☀️ What you do (or don't do) on a Monday sets your tone for the week. Starting off Monday with a workout tells my body that we are in this thing for the stretch. Took my work and my superfood lunch outside on this beautiful day to play with the kids and conduct some new coach training calls. It's entirely too gorgeous to be inside! #SAHM #bosslady #coachlife (at facebook.com/shellygonzalesfitness)

Outside: grey skies, raindrops and a 60 degree day. Inside: sunshine all around! It is what you make of it. My alarm setting was off so I missed running with some of my favorite ladies. BUT, my husband brought me coffee in bed as I read my devotional. I can hear the littles waking up, saying good morning to each other in their room (so sweet!) and today will we pick (and maybe, can) peaches! #makeyourownsunshine
