What Do You Mean I Am Not the Only One?

September 30, 2012 by

While I respected my friends’ positive changes made through Genesis, I also thought they were a bit overboard with their GT ways. I thought they only cared about the scale and were not “living life”. I thought,  MY life doesn’t work like that.   I have too many social events with friends and family to […]

I just love the weekends.  It is time to get away from the rat race of a 40+ work week as a pharmaceutical industry project manager and Genesis coach.  Every Friday afternoon from spring to fall, my husband and I pack up and head an hour north for a weekend on our boat. Fellow GT’er […]

Windex vs. Clean Food…is there a difference? Not when it comes to the mirror, both will you give you a beautiful reflection!  Prior to my journey with Genesis Transformation, the image in my mirror caused me a great deal of confusion AND pain. The confusion came from my lifestyle at the gym and in the […]

I’m writing this blog entry from Naples Italy because I’m working here for three weeks. While that’s quite a statement in itself, I am very happy to say; “I MADE IT TO 199!” WOW! What a memory this will make being able to tell people that I hit 199 while traveling in Italy. This is […]

Gratitude is the blending of the words “Grateful” and “Attitude”.   To walk around and acknowledge what you have in life and let that feeling come back out in your spirit and energy. In the hustle and bustle of everyday life it is easy to get lost and fail to notice the many blessings each of […]

These Genesis Coach ‘How We Roll’ articles are made up of two parts so you get full disclosure.  The first part is a diary in the ‘day of the life’, and the second is a set of interview questions that the coach will answer. A “normal” day in my current life (working with crime victims, […]

Beginner Workout #20: featuring Coach Courtney Townley

July 17, 2011 by

The most important thing to remember as a beginner exerciser is to GO SLOW and PAY ATTENTION to what you are doing.  Slowing down movement when performing new exercises helps to prevent injury and actually challenges the endurance of muscle tissue.  Paying attention means focusing on your form and proper execution of the movement to […]

Sheri’s Workouts: Power of Six 4: TORSO

When weight lifting, the first 2-3 sets are really just about blood distribution.  When you’re a beginner (in your first couple years of lifting) then this is good – you’ll build muscle at this level, you’ll regenerate tissue, and you’ll recover fast enough to keep you enjoying what you’re doing.  Increased blood circulation is really […]

ALTERNATE NOSTRIL BREATHING Alternate Nostril Breathing is a breath exercise (pranayam) that brings balance to both the left and right sides of the brain. It also balances out our emotions. Research shows that we don’t breathe evenly through both nostrils and this helps us overcome our dominance over one side. 1) Sit comfortably with your […]
