BRITISH VIRGIN ISLAND SAILING TRIP 2011

 
We are having some cold dreary weather here in Tennessee, so I pulled out this video recap I put together after our 2011 British Virgin Islands sailing trip.  Watching this made me warm and happy inside 🙂  Thought I’d share in case any of you need to escape to the Islands!

LOOKING BACK ON 2012 FITNESS VACATION

One year ago, a group of us experienced the most amazing healthy week at THIS house
We learned to make good food choices together, practiced practical food prep that we could translate into life when we came home, and enjoyed yummy healthy drinks like THIS
We exercised 2 times a day, and we LOVED every minute because our gym looked like THIS
And when it was time to relax and recover, 
we were HERE
If you are feeling a bit jealous about now, I have good news.
There MIGHT just be another trip in the works for 2015!
We will also be playing with the NEW TYE4® in the workouts!
 
The crew will learn to use it and will be taking one home after our fabulous vacation!!!

TYE4® PILATES VIDEO – DEMO

In this video I am doing a Pilates sequence using the TYE4® in a 
LEG BUNGEE FRONT CROSS (LBFC) position.
 
Basically, you will put the right foot strap on the LEFT foot 
and the LEFT foot strap on the RIGHT foot.  
The bungees will cross in the front near your core. 
 
I do not use the arm bungees in this sequence, so I have tied them around my waist to get them out of the way.

Using TYE4 while doing Pilates is like doing Reformer Pilates.  The bungees are the springs. That’s pretty fantastic.  If you have a TYE4, I hope you will try this!  For more TYE4 info, check out TheMethodPilates.com
