Hey DanceBody Babes,

The summer months are finally here, I feel like we spend all year waiting for these days! With the warmer season comes new fitness challenges for us to navigate, such as: vacation time vs. workout time, how to sweat-proof life, and daily balancing of summer indulgences. I think one thing we can all agree on is that the concept of the “summer body” is officially cancelled. It’s not about perfection, it’s about progress!

Summer is a great time for travel, but this can also affect our regularly scheduled workouts. If you’re away from your usual routine, give yourself a little grace while also holding yourself to a certain movement standard. Traveling with a resistance band and DanceBody LIVE is your best bet to keep a few structured workouts going while you’re OOT. Remember, you can always download your On Demand workouts ahead of time if you know you won’t have access to wifi!

Summer = SWEAT: we all know it! Make your sweat work for you. If you are rushing from your workout to a meeting or day date, slick back that hair into a low, messy bun. I love styling mine back with John Frieda’s Frizz Ease Secret Weapon Touch Up Cream - it’s never failed me, plus you can find it everywhere. My newest find is Supergoop’s Unseen Sunscreen - not only does it provide sun protection, but it leaves your skin looking and feeling matte. Another new product in my sweat-proof arsenal is Summer’s Eve Active Spray. I spray this on my leggings or shorts before my workout to keep things as dry as possible - also I sneakily double it as a quick spray deodorant - why not!? Last, my waterproof mascara is a non-negotiable must have. I have been obsessed with L’Oreal’s Double Extend Waterproof Mascara for years. Stays on all day long as I run (sweaty!) from place to place.

Burgers, apple pie, ice cream, fries, ROSÉ, these are a few of my favorite summer things. I know they are going to show up in most places this summer - which is why I try to have less of them sitting around at home! I don’t deprive myself of food and drink indulgences, especially while celebrating summer, but I am aware that they make more frequent appearances at this time of year. One of my rules is: for every glass of rosé, I have a glass of water - this keeps me hydrated and less likely to off a bottle haha. As for summer treats, I enjoy a little bit of everything, but make 80% of what I normally eat centered around proteins and veggies to give myself some sweet/savory wiggle room when I need it - because I will need it!

Bottom line is: Summer is a time to enjoy life. Balance it the best you can, because as we all know, total deprivation simply doesn’t work, and will lead to oversaturation in the end.

Xx, 

KP
