Pickerington, OH I'm a forty-something homeschooling mom who doesn't have time to go to the gym. I got tired of being out of shape, so I started trying to exercise at home and training in taekwondo with my sons. Although I started becoming more fit, I wasn't coming close to the same level of fitness I enjoyed before having children. It was too easy for me to simply not do my at-home workouts. With a I'm a forty-something homeschooling mom who doesn't have time to go to the gym. I got tired of being out of shape, so I started trying to exercise at home and training in taekwondo with my sons. Although I started becoming more fit, I wasn't coming close to the same level of fitness I enjoyed before having children. It was too easy for me to simply not do my at-home workouts. With a Beachbody team to support me and the P90X program laid out for me, I have begun an exciting journey toward a whole new level of fitness and feel better than I have in years! In addition to teaching my own children at home, I teach a natural childbirth class. I love helping expecting couples give their babies the healthiest start in life, beginning with healthy habits during pregnancy. I love to help people achieve a healthier lifestyle later in life, as well. I chose the screen name "Balanced Fitness" because I believe fitness is about much more than exercise. I strive to have a balance of spiritual, mental, emotional and physical fitness and would love to encourage and support you in doing the same.

I had always been super-fit. First as a gymnast up through my teen years, next as a martial artist through college,then just by going to the gym and working out. Then I had kids and no time for the gym. Bye-bye fitness; Hello fatigue! Fast forward 12 years: arthritis in my knee, back and neck. Wii Fit came into my life, slowly getting me back into exercising. I added some random exercise routines, including P90X YogaX, CardioX, and KenpoX. Soon after, I started doing taekwondo 3 days a week with my boys, but got lazy in the "off days" and skipped working out on those days. I was beginning to have more energy. I thought I was in great shape again. Then I decided to quit flirting with P90X and just Bring It! I wasn't in as good of shape as I thought. I couldn't get through most of the routines! I decided to commit to the classic program. Just 3 weeks into it the arthritis pain in my knee disappeared, my constant lower back pain was now rare, my chiropractor noticed that my spine held adjustments better, and I had more energy than ever! It took me 104 days because I had to take a 2 week break due to a back injury when I was 10 weeks into the program. I could do all of the routines, too, although I still modify a little bit on Plyo. I'm now stronger than ever with lots of energy. A manicurist told me I had the most ripped arms she'd ever worked on :)
