I’ve got something fun for you guys.  But don’t jump to the bottom just yet!!  We still have some Tuesday Trainer business to attend to.

Like the theme.

And might I add – one more theme before we take a rest week.  (AHHH!!)

This week’s theme was inspired by the public school system.  (That may be the first time that anyone’s ever said “inspired” and “public school system” in the same sentence.)

You see, this week, our county is on its SPRING BREAK.  One week for the students (Hi, Maddy!) to recharge and bug their parents, instead of their teachers (hi, Katy!)

Geek alert – my Junior year’s Spring Break involved me going to the beach with some fellow Cross Country runners.  We did two-a-days, complete with sprint work and long runs at the beach.  On our Spring Break.  Our “vacation”.  Lame.  (we DID win Regional’s that year.  We were SERIOUS about running.  Just not our social lives.)

A lot of times, Spring Break involves TRAVEL.  So that’s what we’re doing this week.

The theme for this week’s Tuesday Trainer is “Spring Break Travel”!!  Moves can be done on the road, with minimal or no equipment. 

What are the exercises that you do when traveling (in a hotel, in an ill-equipped gym, on the sand with your nerdy running friends).  Those are the moves I want.

Here’s mine:  Resistance Band Donkey Kicks and Fire Hydrants

The Logistics

  • ANYONE can participate – blogger or not.
  • If you do blog, be sure to introduce yourself AND your blog.
  • Feel free to give tips on proper execution and technique.
  • DON’T include a number of reps. I’ll do that part.
  • If your move isn’t correct, meaning improper form or instruction, I will not be able to feature it. Do your homework and get it right!!
  • On Tuesday, grab the Tuesday Trainer button, to provide your readers with an easy link to the workout! Simply copy the text in my side bar and paste it into your HTML code.

**DEADLINE for submitting moves is Monday night, the 12th, at 8pm EST.  I cannot assure that your exercise will be included if I receive it after the cut-off time.  Again, go here to learn how to upload your video!**

Now on to the fun part…

How about a giveaway? 

Maybe an entire MONTH’S SUPPLY of PopChips?  Would that work for you?

Did you know that PopChips is a BLEND Retreat Swag Bag sponsor?  And did you also know that they didn’t contact me about sponsoring, but that I asked THEM, because I wanted to try PopChips.  Shameful, but true. 

And I’m SO glad I reached out.

These chips are pretty amazing.  Not baked, not fried.

I’m not sure how they do it, but this new Sweet Potato flavor is pretty great.  I could easily eat two bags in one sitting without a second thought.  Good thing I’ve got a month’s supply to keep me company for the next, oh, 3 days.

  1. My favorite healthy snack is homemade wholewheat bread with organic creamy peanut butter with banana slices. =)

  2. My favorite healthy snack is apples! I try to eat one every day – and would eat them multiple times if I could!

  3. My go-to favorite snack involves a banana plus ________________(greek yogurt, almond or sunflower seed butter, slivered almonds, granola, etc.). I’ve never tried Popchips with a banana, but maybe now I can?!?

  4. My go-to favorite snack is a banana + ___________ (i.e. yogurt, almond or sunflower seed butter, etc.). I’ve never tried a banana with Popchips, but maybe now I can?!?

  5. My current favorite snack is bananas with peanut butter. Everything is better with peanut butter.

  6. Yum, I’ve never tried popchips before! My favorite healthy snack is probably plain greek yogurt with a little honey. Or an apple. Or a grapefruit. I.love.fruit.

  7. My favorite snack is probably a Chobani yogurt, but Pop Chips are very popular in our house. My boyfriend and I can’t get enough of them!

  8. BANANAS! No, not the healthy snack but how I would die if I had a month supply of Pop Chips. My husband can burn through a bag pretty fast so I hide them in the pantry as my special snack friend. Other favorite snacks- love clementine’s, apples with almond butter, carrots with hummus.

  9. I had pop chips today! the BBQ was really good.
    i am on a banana and blueberry kick lately for snacks!

  10. My favorite healthy snack as of right now is cantaloupe with cottage cheese! Yummy! I’m dying for some real (in season/ripe) cantaloupe…Come on summer!

  11. Oooh a giveaway! :D My current favorite healthy snack would be a handful of almonds…it’s too easy for me to eat too many, but when I’m gone and in between clients or away, it’s the perfect hold-me-over snack, esp when paired with an apple. Never tried popchips – seen them and they look great!

    And a Tuesday Trainer traveling themes…nice. Are strictly body weight moves okay too? Thanks L! :)

  12. when i need a snack i’ll chop up an apple and eat it with greek yogurt, cinnamon, and stevia. yum!

  13. My favorite healthy snack (at the moment) is ants on a long–you know, celery, peanut butter, topped with a few raisins!

  14. My favorite snack is greek yogurt with some cereal. But I am dying to try the Sweet Potato pop chips and I can’t buy them in Oklahoma yet!!

  15. My favorite snack is assorted vegetables and hummus, followed by a close second of a spoon of peanut butter. I really want to try this new sweet potato variety.

  16. My favorite snack is DEFINITELY either nut butter eaten with a chopstick (nut butter lollipops!) or hummus and veggies…although instead of hummus, lately I’ve been dipping (or covering) everything in/with this citrus avocado dressing/dip I made this week!

    I think the new Thai flavored Pop Chips might become my new favorite snack if I were able to try them. :)

  17. Gosh I would love to get these pop chips, they have been my new favorite obsession especially being allergic to gluten. My other favorite snack is probably microwaved scrambled egg whites with laughing cow cheese.

  18. My favorite snack is air-popped popcorn with mini chocolate chips, sweet and salty!

  19. I love hummus and crackers so I’d love to try these sweet potato Popchips with my homemade hummus dip! Appreciate the fitness inspiration and giveaway :)

  20. Trail mix with nuts and seeds and dried fruit is my choice of a healthy snack! Thanks for the giveaway!

  21. My favorite snack is probably hummus and veggies…although right now I’m a bit obsessed with this citrus avocado dip/dressing I made recently and have been dipping everything into it (and using it to cover everything) :)

    I have to say that if I could get hooked up with the new Thai flavor PopChip those might become my favorite…I already am OBSESSED with the salt + vinegar ones.

  22. I really want to try popchips! I’ve heard such great things about them but have yet to try them. My favorite healthy snack is greek yogurt!!

  23. considering i just did all that travel, this is perfect! i am a pro, right? and gimme some pop chips!! we love the salt and vinegar flavor. They still have that flavor right?
    HOPE SO!
