Summer is over…the kiddos are back to school…but you still need to worry about the heat when exercising. . Just because summer is over doesn’t mean we have beautiful fall weather yet (and yes I know some parts of the U.S. and the world are all heat all the time ;) ) . Here are a few things to keep in mind. . Sunscreen: Still working on this habit ( don’t worry, I am too). Here is a quick way to always remember to apply it before heading outside. Leave a bottle by the door, so when you head outside it’s right there and have a bottle to take with you if you plan on being in the sun for a while. . Water: Be sure to always carry water with you. Being dehydrated can lead to exhaustion as well as impaired performance. The average person typically loses around 84.5 ounces of fluid per day and that doesn’t account for exercise or being in the heat. So the best way to combat dehydration when out in the heat is to drink 8 ounces every 15 minutes or so. . Lastly, Attire: Be sure to dress appropriately for the heat. Light colored and lightweight clothing are ideal. Stay away from dark colors because they tend to attract the sun. . Information changes the world. The more we know. The better choices we can make. . Happy Friday y’all! . . . . #ahcoachingandfitness #teamchangeonfire🔥 #usmcspouse #mommaof2 https://www.instagram.com/p/Bml-KVMgfMz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ujux1ic2b2pw

Week 5 day 4! . The sweat is rolling and I am excited to mark off another week of this amazing program. . Plus Josh had me rolling with his statement today: “Onion butt, so good it makes you want to cry”. . Now for some recover and taking the hubby his lunch! . . . . #ahcoachingandfitness #teamchangeonfire🔥 #usmcspouse #mommaof2 https://www.instagram.com/p/Bmljfp5A_yP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=aj5b11n5ppkx

Week 4 day 1 in the books 📚! . Feeling much better after 2 rest days and getting rid of that darn migraine. . Starting the week off right and in schedule. . Planning to keep on track all week with my schedule and my to do list. . Workouts are easy, lately it has been the nutrition that has been challenging. . But I am going to own this week and keep moving forward. . . . . #ahcoachingandfitness #teamchangeonfire🔥 #usmcspouse #mommaof2 #strongertogether #strongereveryday💪🏼

It is not very often we get fancy with breakfast, but one of my favorite breakfasts at the hotel while moving from Okinawa was eggs Benedict. . I was determined to learn how to make it. . Sadly when I first started researching recipes for it all I seen was a super calorie laden hollandaise sauce. . I kept searching though and found a super easy and 5 ingredient recipe for my sauce yesterday among all the running around we did and it was on. . The kiddos even agreed to try it for breakfast this morning. . I am one happy momma with the way they turned out! . . . . #ahcoachingandfitness #teamchangeonfire🔥 #makeitathome #eggsbenedict #yum #usmcspouse #mommaof2
