How will I fit a workout in to this busy summer schedule?

I cannot believe it is June 6th already! Summer vacation is underway in my home and I am trying to workout a schedule to fit in kid's activities, my workouts, my business, house cleaning, grocery shopping, pool cleaning... you get the picture... too much to do, not enough free time to do it in.
My plan? To schedule my days! I tend to operate better with a schedule and get a bit flustered with last minute changes so this won't be a bad thing for me, but I know that if I don't get my workout in during my "workout window", it very likely will not get done with creating chaos in the house! I am on week 10 of P90X, so I can't exactly stall out now after all of my hard work! Part of my passion behind my fitness is being a great role model for my children and for the people I am coaching through these programs... a good role model finishes what they begin (unless they are injured or have another really good excuse), but stopping because I didn't schedule it in (after the laundry and before the swim lessons), is not a good excuse in my books! I love my children and I plan to have a fun summer with them, but I also think that keeping my fitness where I want it to be makes me a much happier and fun mommy than I would otherwise be :) (side note, this is my personal opinion for me - I don't judge others choices, just sharing what is important for me!!!)
Whether you exercise with your children, take them to childcare at the gym, workout before they get up or however works for you, just make sure you model for them the importance of good health and fitness to a level that works for you.
My children start swim lessons this week, then soccer camp... I think during the week of science camp we might need to get some extra energy burned off with lots of evening swimming. There are a few great workout programs for kids too on DVD if it gets too hot out and you can't leave the house... Shaun T's Fit Club for Kids and Tony and the Kids.

If you would like help working out a schedule that will fit with your lifestyle, finding a program that you can work with or how to get started on Shakeology, please contact me and sign up on my website at www.GetFitWithNicola.com to make me your free coach!

Is it really almost June?

Where has the spring gone?  For most people I know they haven't even had spring weather yet and my kids are out of school for SUMMER VACATION in ONE WEEK!  That is crazy!  I am looking forward to a more lax schedule, fun summer camps and lots of pool time, but the problem with the lax schedule is that momma will have to work harder to fit in the workouts and the office work!
Do you have plans for fitting it all in?  I will plan my weeks and my daily activities... this is why we do camps, so I can be structured as I get a little bit out of whack without structure!  I do foresee problems with getting to the gym regularly so thank goodness I have my P90X on the go so I
can get my daily workouts in ...plus I have good reason to stay on track with my nutrition (although I did buy plastic wine glasses so I can enjoy a drink by the pool!). 
My kids will be worn out by days end with swimming lessons, soccer camp, Bible camp, Chemistry camp, Country Club camp and Family vacation!!!  Plus playdates and LOTS of pool time!

A few months ago I told my Turbo Kick class that I would love to teach in a bra top to better demonstrate the value of full body movement to working the upper abs... I had big plans for RevAbs to get me ready for that in April, but I did not stay on track with my nutrition to reach my goals in time.  Some one finally called me out on it the other day so I have made a new commitment for Wednesday June 15th... I better get my nutrition on track as my fitness sure is!  I will clean up my eating, find some great recipes to post on here too and keep you posted!  Right after June 15th is the Beachbody Summit annual meeting in LA... which gives me two things to look great for!  Who wants to join me in a clean eating challenge?  I will have details ready to go for Monday!!!
