Have you ever eyeballed your stairs at home and wondered if you could use them for a workout? Maybe you’ve even walked or jogged up and down them a few times – or tried a few jumps – but then you weren’t sure about safety, or you got bored of endless stair laps. Maybe your […]
Partner up and leverage each other to improve your squatting technique! While I filmed this routine with a child, it could also be used by two teens, two adults, one adult and one teen… You get the idea! Notice our special guest puppy, Mandie? Other Fit2B routines that would improve your squat would be Squat […]
This workout builds on Weightlifting 101 and 201, but there is so much more I could (and will) spin off of this strenuous series.

Those stairs you have in your house, or the ones at that park or store you frequent… Why not turn them into a toning tool and use them for some cardio and body resistance work? This is the first of a big set of workouts that utilize stairways, and I’m so excited to make more! […]
I taught “aquarobics” for several years, including my pregnancy and recovery with my son. I’d set him in his carseat on the pool deck, and the class participants would coo and croon to him whenever they went by. It was so fun to teach, but I admit I was a bit stumped to get repeated […]
If this workout doesn’t turn your muscles to mush {in a good way} then you’re ready for heavier weights, because, as I say many times throughout the routine itself, “Oh. My. Goodness.” I practiced and practiced this workout to prepare to not be so sweaty and out of breath while filming, but nope! This pattern […]

Okay, I admit that title is long and cheesy, but it summarizes the choreography theme in the patterns you’ll be doing with me in this fun routine. You’re going to be all over your bench on every side, pivoting all over. As always, I’ve got your back with modifications if you’re not ready for jumping […]
As long as you’re moving and exercising that’s all you need for a healthy body right? Nope. You are more than your muscles, and since your posture affects not just the shape of your belly, but also your digestion, pelvic floor function, emotions, chemistry, and also how you present yourself to others, we need to […]

Thanks to all your positive feedback on the Bag A Better Back routine, we are excited to debut this, and we have plans for “Bag a Better Bust” as well 😉 And in case you’re wondering if it’s awkward to control a swinging grocery bag as the training tool for a toned tushie, yes! But wow! […]

Wait, wasn’t basic step aerobics only popular in the eighties along with big hair and thongs over spandex? Ha! Thankfully, it’s still a favorite among many minus the perpetual wedgie-wear, and it was Bethany’s first favorite in group fitness! Of course, she had to get some throw-back pants as a nod to the flashy style of […]
Guess what? Beth – that’s me, the one who writes all these descriptions – doesn’t spend a bunch of time on her arms at the gym each day. I spend about 10 minutes, 2-3 times per week doing the same moves you’ll see in this band workout and the other routines in the “Amazing Arms” […]

Just like Beth, you don’t even have to get out of your slippers to do this mini-workout that shows you how to bring some small hand-weights along for […]
The chief resistance your body fights every day is gravity: The pull that holds you against this Earth we live on. The surfaces we walk upon effect how we interact with gravity. Walking on grass is different than walking on sand which is different than walking on wood floors… especially in slippery socks. As you do […]

After all, these muscles play a key role in one very crucial daily activity: using […]
Newly filmed and re-released, this routine will put a jump in your step! Every transition in this workout is accomplished with a jump, but several options and levels are provided. The pace and attention to the transverse abdominus makes this a very “tummy safe” workout. It is good for bone density and your heart rate, […]
How long can you hold a pose? This workout encourages you to hold each position for at least 10 deep breaths. Don’t let the lack of repetitive motions fool you into thinking it won’t get your heart pumping. Holding a muscle in place can be harder than moving it! This workout was originally filmed in […]
This workout features six exercises done tabata-style, meaning each movement done for 8 sets of 20 seconds each with a 10 second rest between each set. However, unlike mainstream tabata classes that perform the exercises as fast as possible, Bethany pays careful attention to form and core positioning and keeps things at a safe pace. […]

Originally filmed in 2010 as part of our first set of workouts, there were some seriously unhappy members when I took it down to refilm AND then we had a glitch with the new one! Needless to say, I’m very excited to debut this new version. It’s almost ridiculous how many attempts we’ve made to do this. […]
