Then, I had to remind myself, I ’m not a beginner. I worry about beginners getting burned out from the high volume of work.

I worry about beginners picking them up, hurting themselves and being turned off of exercise. I’ve never done, or really been a big fan of, super high intensity programs like Insanity. She’s fun but tough, encouraging but not obnoxious. I love Anja’s Dailyburn workouts – especially Bikini Butt. When Dailyburn launched their updated website and a new slate of workouts – including the Inferno program by Anja Garcia – I saw the opportunity to try something fresh and challenging. So it’s time to step out of my comfort zone and try sometime new. But I also say I never ask my clients to do something I wouldn’t do myself. I have a rotation of workouts for myself, changing them out at regular intervals to match my schedule and goals. It’s the challenge, pushing myself way past what I think I can do.


The funny thing is sometimes I need a little of that too. What they really want is accountability and someone to push them a bit farther than they would push themselves. Why do people hire a personal trainer? Most people know how to exercise.
