 HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!!
Since many of you told me you loved the personal video message at the beginning of last month’s newsletter, I’m bringing it to you again.
As I mentioned in the video, I cannot wait to head to New Orleans to attend the Super Bowl of Beachbody, which we call Coach Summit!! Coach Summit can energize your mind, body, and your business. I would love to have to you join us and become my business partner for many, many reasons, and I would LOVE IT if you attended Coach Summit with me next year. There’s a preview video of Summit below.
How do I become your business partner, Ingrid? I’m so glad you asked. Click Here if you are ready to own your own life and start paying it forward and begin blessing the lives of others both physically and financially by becoming a Team Beachbody Coach with me.
I’m looking forward to hearing your feedback on the Newsletter this month. Have a blessed and healthy July!

8 Tips for Exercising in Summer Heat
 Summer is the perfect time to go outside and have fun. It's one of my favorite times of year because there are so many outdoor activities to choose from. Everything is more fun outside, whether you're swimming, running, or cycling. Plus, you can stream Beachbody on Demand on your electronic device and work out anywhere you want!
The summer heat can be a problem if you're not careful, particularly in areas with extreme heat and humidity. The biggest heat-related problems are staying hydrated and maintaining your body's electrolytes and salt because your body sweats these essential components right out. This delicate balance of water and electrolytes is crucial to keep your body functioning properly.
If you don't drink enough water, you can get dehydrated and suffer from light-headedness and nausea. If not recognized, dehydration can even result in kidney failure, or in extreme cases, death. However, if you drink too much water without replenishing your electrolytes, you can experience hyponatremia. This can lead to confusion, nausea, muscle cramps, seizures, or even death in extreme cases.
You may not be racing in the desert, but there are some things to keep in mind when it comes to exercising in the heat:
- The time of day is important. Unless you are training for an event that takes place in the daytime heat, avoid exercising from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. It's the hottest part of day. Generally, the early morning is the best time to workout, especially if it's going to be a scorcher that day.
- Wear loose, light-colored. The lighter color will help reflect heat, and cotton material will help the evaporation of sweat. You may also want to try specially designed, "hi-tech" running shirts and shorts. They are often made from material meant to keep you cool.
- It's important to protect your skin. You can get burned and suffer sun damage to your skin even on cloudy days.Sunscreen is a must.
- Take a drink every 15 minutes, even when you're not thirsty. When you're done with your workout, have a few more glasses of water.Stay hydrated. Before you go out, drink a glass or two of water. Carry a bottle of water or even a hydration pack such as the CamelBak.
- Try something like SUCCEED capsules - small, simple packs of sodium and electrolytes that keep your system in check.Replenish your electrolyte and salt intake while exercising.
- If you can, choose shaded trails or pathways that keep you out of the sun.
- Check the weather forecast before you start your workout. If there's a heat advisory, meaning high ozone and air pollution, you might want to take your workout indoors. These pollutants can damage your lungs.
- Most importantly, listen to your body. Stop immediately if you're feeling dizzy, faint, or nauseous.
