Happy Labor Day!

I just wanted to drop a quick message to you to say Happy Labor Day weekend to everyone!  Have a great weekend and please take some time to relax and enjoy your family and friends (I’m mostly talking to myself here, LOL!).

Many of us work so hard all the time that we frequently find our personal lives “out of balance”.  Personally, I work hard on my fitness every morning, I work hard all day/week at my day job, come home to work all evening and weekends helping you guys achieve your goals (which I love by the way!)…but, sometimes I need to remind myself what is really important in life!…my God, my wife and my son!

It doesn’t matter how successful your are, or how great your fitness level is, if at the end of the day your loved ones aren’t by your side to enjoy it with you.  Time management is crucial to keeping a balanced life!  It takes practice.  I’m blessed to have a wonderful wife that helps keep my priorities on track!

This morning I took several hours (after my ASYLUM GAME DAY workout…ouch!) to go hiking with my son, climb some rocks, and hit a few baseballs.  We had a great time and it was a great male-bonding day.  I hope you all take them time to do the same with your loved ones this weekend also.

I’d be remiss is I didn’t remind you that you can still eat clean and healthy at Labor Day picnics.  Typically there are lots of fruits, veggie trays, and lean meats.  If you think you will have a hard time saying “no” to the temptations…fill up on healthy food before you go so you won’t be as tempted.  Stay away from the brats and brownies!  There I said it!…carry on.  Enjoy!

Lastly, don’t forget that there are only 2 more days to get P90X2 Pre-Order with free shipping and all the other benefits of ordering through your Beachbody Coach.  On Monday the coach exclusive will end and pre-order will be open to everyone else.  They are expecting another tidal wave of orders so the chances of getting it by Christmas diminish greatly.  Also, there will be THOUSANDS of people starting a P90X2 Challenge on Jan 2, 2012 (our team included).  If you want to participate in that event, you need to pre-order so you get it in time.  Everyone will be doing the same workouts everyday, all over the world…how cool will that be!

There is plenty of time to complete a round of P90X before then to prepare (join our P90X Challenge to Honor Our Heroes!).

Have a great weekend team!

Keep Bringing It! and inspiring other to do the same!  NEVER SURRENDER!
