That is the question!
After a long winter, it is time to think spring! Then Summer! It is around the corner!
It is possible that our birthday suits may need to be “re-sized” at this point.
Spring is a great time to get back into a routine. The days are longer, weather gets warmer, and the idea of summer is on our minds.
Cardio and diet are great ways to lose a couple of sizes. But don’t forget that free weights are an important part of that program.
So if you can’t get outside, or to the gym invest in some quality equipment for your home!

Spring, is this season just a myth?
Summer, flies by in a blink. Fall, shows up for a couple weeks, feels like summer in the beginning, and then snows by Halloween. Winter. WINTER goes on forever and ever! For example, It’s almost March and April will be knocking on our door. Technically, Spring has almost arrived! Tell that to Mother Nature who keeps dropping nor’easters on us left and right!
Keep praying it will be warm enough soon to take that workout routine outside. So what does that mean for us? Well, we are still hitting the gyms and home workout routines best we can, but something is missing. That feeling you get when you can take that walk outside! The longer days, the warmer weather, the flowers and buds on the trees. Hello? Has anyone seen them? I mean, I see sand, salt and dirty roads. It is very hard to stay motivated. I mean come on, we are 3 months away from bikini season? Are you ready? (And no guys, I am not talking to you!) How do we keep it together without losing it all completely?
First idea, book a trip and head to warmer weather! If you can’t do that, then get some vitamin D the natural way! It will help believe me. Then, revamp your workout routine. It is time to change it up, and try new things to inspire you to launch into the spring/summer season.
Group classes, hire a trainer, invest in a quality treadmill, elliptical or gym for your home. Think about how you can invest in yourself, by investing in your health. That’s my motto, and the one I stick by!
So hang in there, eventually this long winter will turn to spring. Well for maybe a week, then turn to summer, but whatever the case, you will be ready for it!
This has been your “inspiration” to do so..
You are welcome!

Oh yes…It does exist!!
That dreaded period of time between Thanksgiving and New Years! The “no diet” zone! The “ah the heck with it all” lack of motivation! It is for real!
Do you know the average person gains anywhere from 5-10 lbs during the months between Thanksgiving and New Years? If you are not accountable for what you eat, and getting in your proper workouts, it can sneak up on you that fast!
Now by all means enjoy your holidays! Even indulge a little…but get back on the horse the next day! Get in that walk or strength workout! Start eating well again, and take in enough water! You can manage your holidays AND stay in shape!
Holidays are about family, friends and being thankful. So please remember that is important and enjoy it! However, so is your health, and you should try to balance good habits with some bad too.
Accountability is crucial, and living a healthy lifestyle is important. Make a plan ahead of time. Decide what “cheats” you want to have, and how you will work them off the next day and through the long weekend. Stay consistent, keep your routine the same and vary the intensity throughout the holiday season. Lastly, make long lasting memories of family and friends, and keep them as your inspiration and motivation to stay healthy so you may enjoy more of those wonderful times!
Happy Holidays All!

Let the countdown begin…
Just about a week away from Thanksgiving, or as I like to call it, the most amazing food fest/cheat day of the year!
A time to get together with family and friends, and celebrate all that we are truly thankful for. So please explain to me how it always revolves around food? I know it sounds funny, I mean I truly enjoy the turkey and all the fix-ins, however, I am left thinking how did this holiday really translate to food?
People who try so hard to eat well and exercise live a healthy lifestyle most days, but Thanksgiving..well that is the best cheat day of the year! I mean who the heck “diets” during Thanksgiving? Does that even make sense? As Chris Berman would say, “Come on Man!” It is not possible! Dieting should be against the law on this holiday!
I think everyone should get a free pass, in fact I will declare it right now! YOU! Yes, you! The person reading this.. I give you permission to enjoy your family, friends, and eat whatever you want on Thanksgiving! However, there is a catch. You have to get back on track the day after! Thanksgiving is ONE day. Not Thursday-Sunday. Nope! So let’s make a deal! You work hard to stay fit, eat well, exercise? You owe yourself a “day off” to be thankful for all that you have. If you don’t live a healthy lifestyle, well, perhaps it is time to use this as your wake up call. Start! One day at a time!
If everyone took time out to celebrate themselves, we may have more positive and happy people around. The world could be a better place! Now how about we commit to living a healthier lifestyle. Not just for ourselves, but for those around us. The “trickle down” effect can be huge! Spreading to family and friends in a very good way!
The holidays are meant to be enjoyed. They are meant to be a happy occasion. If you are not happy with yourselves, how can you enjoy this time, or anyone around you? Think about it! Deep thoughts with Laurie.
May you find peace, and be thankful for all that you have today! For living your best life is the best gift you can give yourself! Happy Thanksgiving All!

It’s that time of year again!
Candy and more candy! A festive time of year, the start of the “Holiday Season”.
If we are not careful, it all can go downhill starting now!
Halloween leads to Thanksgiving, which in turn leads to Christmas and the New Year. Yes, “resolution” time! However, if you take time to get a handle on things, you can “keep calm and carry on”.
It is important to live life and enjoy it! Just try to keep your healthy habits in perspective! Stay to the diet best you can during the week, and allow that Halloween party (candy and all) and other fun times in check!
Exercise! This is crucial. If you want to play you have to pay. So have a good attitude about it! Make sure you have a realistic routine. A back up piece of equipment is important to have in your home. If you have one, make sure it is in working order BEFORE the cold weather hits. If not, maybe consider investing in a newer piece with a full warranty.
The gym is great! If you have a membership, it is important to use it. However, we all know what happens in January! All the “newbies” coming in for their resolutions.
How to beat the frustration of that time of year? How about adding some free weights, resistance bands, dumb bells or many other items to make an inexpensive home gym of your own at home? A go to piece of cardio at home, like a treadmill, elliptical or bike?
Well we have you covered! Come on down to visit us at Fit Equipment in person for demos, give us a call or check us out online at Fit Equipment ETC!!
We have what you are looking for!

Ah…what the hell happened? I blinked and the Summer of 2017 is over?? Say it isn’t so!
Well I for one will not go quietly! I want summer to NEVER end!
However, the body has enjoyed the Summer of 2017 very much!
So we are all in the same situation now, time to “reel” it in from all the bad habits, and fun parties and get togethers. Diet? What diet? Training? What a regular routine? Come on!
Time to get a schedule/routine again! Perfect time is now!
See kids go back to school, fall starts to hit here in New England (when I say fall, I mean the two weeks of cooler temps and crisp Autumn leaves) We all know here we have two seasons. Winter and Summer. Summer lasts 4 months, Winter 7 months. We have two weeks of spring (if lucky), and two weeks fall (when we go from 90 degrees to 20 and snow)
However, with “fall” we have FOOTBALL! So here in Patriots country we shall still have those “get togethers” and continue the eating and drinking and being merry…because the Patriots are a fun team to watch with WINNERS.
So get to the gym, walk that treadmill, and dust off those weights!
Have to train so we can enjoy all the Fall season Brings!
Head over to our website, and pick up some great fitness accessories! Maybe even update those treadmills, ellipticals, or bikes! WE HAVE YOU COVERED!!
Here is to a Happy Fall All! ENJOY!

Let’s talk about being POSITIVE! Especially in the world today..
Ever here the terms “Negative Nellies/Normans”, “Debbie/Donnie Downers”??
It is true! So many people tend to focus on the “negatives” instead of the “POSITIVES“.
Why is that? Maybe if we just take a minute to stop, and change our mindsets to something that makes us feel happy, and not let the little things get us down. Do people realize that NO ONE really wants to hear you? Maybe go take that workout you have been putting off, and use it to let off some steam? Before you take your bad day home with you, take a moment to change your head, and make a positive change!
I myself find exercise a way to “release” the worries/troubles/frustrations, anything negative, and change focus and attitude. It can be as simple as taking a walk listening to your favorite artist. You know, that song that makes you smile, makes you want to be in your happy place! It is amazing how quickly you can turn your day around!
Nowadays, social media can be something! Reading status updates all day long, makes us wonder how people deal with things. It is funny. Either you have someone who just feels the need to complain with every post, or someone who wants to keep you motivated and smiling. I vote for the latter! I love to see people happy, a funny joke, a light-hearted story.
I think positive thoughts bring about positive results! So if you have been focusing too much on the negative, take this blog to make you “re-think” your attitude!
Go do something that makes you smile! The joy you feel is infectious! It will bring happiness to all that surround you. If everyone takes time out to do something to make someone smile, this world will be a better place!
In the words of the famous, and very talented Bob Marley, “Don’t worry, ’bout a thing, ’cause every little thing..gonna be alright”.
