All the Details

If there’s a comment I get more than any other on my YouTube videos, it’s this: I had no idea my balance was so bad until I did your workout!

Believe me, I understand this on a soul level.

I vividly remember the day I found out I had terrible balance. I was visiting the Sports Medicine doctor for yet another running injury, and she asked me to stand on one foot. I did, and immediate started wheeling my arms and then toppled over.

“Well, there’s your problem,” she said.

Killer Bs, have you ever had one of those pivotal moments that changes everything in your life?

That was mine.

Standing (and falling over!) in the doctor’s office that day 14 years ago set me on the path to practicing my balance with YOU on YouTube as often as I can.

Because balance is everything.

And the Mini Challenge is here to help you BALANCE it all: your life, your workout routine, and your actual… you know… balance.

This week’s 7-day plan has plenty of BALANCE, with just the right amount of cardio, core strength, weight training and balance practice to keep you on your feet for years to come.

Here’s how the Mini Challenge works:

Choose a GOAL – weight loss (for weight loss) or body shaping (for maintaining your weight and improving your fitness)
Follow the WORKOUTS for your goal – if you’re losing weight, each day’s effort should feel very moderate and consistent (because weight loss over 50 is driven by eating the right number of calories consistently); if you’re shaping your body, one day should be an intense push (you choose which workout, any of them can be intense!), one or two days should be very relaxed and the rest of the days should feel mild to moderate. Changing your intensity is what changes your body.
