Have you been diligent and consistent with your workouts? (I’ve got a cool finisher style workout at the end of this post that you’ll want to try).
The bad news about your consistent workouts is that your body is bent on adapting and if you’re doing the SAME workouts, the best you’ll do is stay the same.
While staying the same isn’t all bad, if you’re training, I’m sure you’ll want to make progress. You want your body to look like you’re putting in the sweat, right?What I’m talking about is called ‘exercise adaptation’. It’s your enemy… and it’s what you DON’T want.
This is how ‘dreaded’ exercise adaptation is defined: Adaptation refers to your body’s physiological response to training. When you do new exercises or load your body in a different way, your body reacts by increasing it’s ability to cope with that new stress. It’s a good idea to change the frequency, intensity, time and type of exercise you do periodically to avoid plateaus and continue challenging your body.
Did you see that?
You need to CHALLENGE your body if you want to CHANGE it.

You don’t have to ‘go it alone’.Folks are raving about Challenge Fit Club, like Meryl:
I love the Challenge Fit Club workouts! Overall I’ve lost 10 inches and 7 pounds. My clothes fit better, but most importantly I feel better.
And Judy:
I love the variety with the timed and AMRAP options so I can decide how I want my workout to go on any given day. There’s very little equipment needed for those of us who train at home so we don’t need a full gym to enjoy a great workout.
And Kate:
I really enjoyed the challenge of competing with myself each week and getting progressively stronger and fitter. I noticed big improvements with strength and endurance and I can now bang out 10 pull ups! Keep the modules coming Shawna!
Studies show that those with support are much more likely to meet their goals. Let me train along side you to challenge you to do your best.The cool thing is that when you focus on the ‘challenge’ your body will magically transform.
Well, we know it’s not really magic – it’s hard work and sweat, but trust me, you’ll love every workout and all the variety along the way.
Check out Challenge Fit Club and watch your body transform.
