NO REGULAR
CLASS SCHEDULE WEEK OF
APRIL
4th @ TEAM FIT
GREETINGS!
I
hope you are doing
fantastic and your April
is off to a great
start!
I
have always loved the
month because it
signifies "Spring"
time. And to me, Spring
time is one of my
favorite seasons because
it represents growth and
new beginnings.
At
Team Fit, we have plenty
of new beginnings going
on right now. Fantastic
things are happening and
I am so anxious to let
you in on them. As you
can see from the above
picture, our marquee has
finally been installed!
My team and I have been
waiting for this day
since we opened back in
January. It looks great
~ and it feels great,
too!
In
addition, great programs
and great trainers have
been added to the
schedule line up this
Spring. I
have the pleasure to
introduce to you a
phenomenal trainer and a
motivating individual
who I am sure you will
enjoy as well. Please
be sure to check out Kim
Ruth's bio by CLICKING
HERE. Kim will be
hosting the F.I.T.
Challenge outdoor camp
at Mae Steiner Park in
Shelby Township this
Spring/Summer as well as
our morning Combat
Boxing programs at Team
Fit.
Maria Mayer
also is coming on board
this summer to host Yoga
at the Beach. Join
Maria twice a month on
Saturday mornings at
Brandenburg Park in
Chesterfield Township.
She will certainly put
you in a relaxed state
as you start your
weekend.
Spring
session begins April
18th. On-line schedule
is now available for
viewing and paper
brochures are being
distributed in campus'.
We always stress the
importance of
pre-registration to
secure your spot. You

and submit via "snail
mail". Please be sure
to refer to our Blog
Page for the status

Boxing, Cycle

and tend to fill up
rather quickly.

APRIL 4th for
programs hosted at
TEAM FIT or on
school campus'.
Please
be sure to pick up a

positive and vibrant

Article
"In Order to
Lead Others, You
Need to First Lead Yourself"
It
doesn't matter if you
struggle with busy
days, a busy season or
a busy life. Here's a
short list of
suggestions that are
sure to energize your
mind and body and make
the "me" in your
message a lot
healthier and happier.
First,
find balance .
You've got to achieve
a balance between
meeting your own needs
and the needs of
others. Most of us
don't want to hear
this because we're
inspired to serve
others and find it
hard to focus on
ourselves. But you've
got to do it. You have
to get ahead of the
curve and stay ahead.
When you're strong and
healthy, you bring
energy and vitality to
your work. When you
aren't, you don't put
your best foot forward
because you can't.
It's that simple.
Educate
yourself about
recovery and
regeneration .
This is the opposite
of the weekend
warrior. Yes, first
you must exercise.
But, I'm talking about
what you do after the
workouts - sleep,
massage, breath work,
etc. These recovery
techniques help you to
relax and improve your
body. Regeneration
occurs when you
restore the quality of
your soft tissue -
your fascia, muscles,
ligaments and joints.
So, get your seven
hours of sleep a
night. Get a massage.
Get a foam roller.
Now. Today. You'll be
amazed at the results.
Don't
wait to take control
. Prevent
stress from
overwhelming your
system. "We're so busy
sprinting, that we
don't stop until our
bodies shut down and
force us to take
notice of the damage
we've done." Meditate
daily, start a
journal, start or get
back to your favorite
yoga
or Pilates class. Pick
one - because even one
will create noticeable
change.
Set
aside a few minutes
a day for YOU .
You may hear this
message all the time,
but when will you hear
it enough to change
your behavior? You can
make a difference with
just a few minutes a
day, even if it's only
10 minutes to start.
You get to pick the
activity: a power nap,
a walk around the
block, a chance to
stretch, to meditate,
to breathe, or to
write. And call it
what you will -
personal time,
me-time, quiet time,
etc. I challenge you
to start today and I
promise you will
remember the "why" in
addition to the "what"
of your busy life, you
will restore
perspective, and you
will renew energy and
purpose.
Friends,
don't let the madness
of any month weaken
you or your message.
You CAN tame the lion
into a lamb. And when
you do, you will be
stronger than ever.
Sometimes you have to
focus on yourself in
order to focus on
others. Just like,
sometimes you have to
go slow to go fast.
This may be one of
those times for you. Take
10 minutes for
yourself TODAY!!!

At Team
Fit, we assist our clients
with top fitness
work-outs, nutritional
advice and overall
wellness treatments. I
have the opportunity
to assess how both
physical and
mental/emotional stresses
affect the body and offer
suggestions. One of my
clients recently let me
know how much she's
benefited by some of the
remedies we've discussed,
so I'm going public with
my favorite things.

Cooking
with the Pros
Shrimp
Roll-Ups

- 1 pound of
whole grain lasagna
noodles with ruffled
edges
- 3 tablespoons
olive oil
- 1 pound of
fresh shelled,
deveined shrimp
- 3 garlic
cloves, chopped
- 1 shallot
chopped
- 1 tablespoon
fennel seeds
- 2 (15 ounce)
containers of part
skim ricotta cheese
- ½ cup freshly
grated parmesan cheese
- 2 egg whites,
slightly beaten
- ¼ cup fresh
chopped basil
- ¼ cup fresh
chopped Italian
parsley
- Zest of 1 large
lemon
- Salt and pepper
to taste
- ¼ teaspoon
freshly grated nutmeg
- 3 cups of
marinara sauce
(homemade or Trader
Joe's brand)
- 1 cup grated
part skim mozzarella
cheese
Preheat
oven to 350
Bring
a large pot of water to a
boil. Add lasagna noodles
and partially cook 6 - 8
minutes, do not overcook.
Drain, lay flat on a paper
towel.
Meanwhile
in a heavy skillet heat
olive oil over medium
heat. Add the garlic,
fennel seeds and shallot,
sautéing for about 3-5
minutes, do not burn. Salt
and pepper shrimp and add
to the garlic and
shallots. Cook for about 4
minutes until shrimp is
just cooked through.
Remove from the heat and
cool. When cool coarsely
chop the shrimp and place
in a large bowl with the
garlic and shallots, add 2
cups of the ricotta
cheese, beaten eggs,
parmesan cheese, basil,
parsley, lemon zest,
nutmeg and salt &
pepper to taste. Stir
until well combined.
**I
like to use 2 small
squared baking dishes or
you could use one 9x12x2
long baking dish. This
will make 12 roll ups and
you will serve 1 to 2 roll
ups per person.
Bake
until heated through
and just beginning to
brown, about 20-25
mins.
