I know I have been a little MIA lately but I had flown the coop\u00a0with Amanda\u00a0on Aug 11th\u00a0to\u00a0attend the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ideafit.com\/conference\/idea-world-fitness-convention-2011 \">2011 Idea World Fitness Convention<\/a> in Los Angeles (well and a\u00a0little post convention vacation in Hawaii &#8211; post and pics to follow!)<\/p>\n<p>Our days were action packed with such great fitness workshops, information sessions and nutrition seminars.\u00a0 It would take me way too long to share all of what we experienced so I thought I would share my top highlights of the 2011\u00a0Idea World\u00a0Fitness Convention:<\/p>\n<p>1. Stocking up on delicious snacks at my fave US grocers &#8211; <a href=\"www.traderjoes.com\">Trader Joes!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>2. Doing an outdoor bootcamp at 7am in front of the Staples Centre (where the LA Lakers play)<\/p>\n<p>3.\u00a0Getting my butt kicked at an indoor bootcamp style workshop with the awesome <a href=\"www.todddurkin.com\">Todd Durkin<\/a><\/p>\n<p>4. Tabatas &amp; high intensity interval training with\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mindymylrea.com\/\">Mindy Mylrea<\/a> and her evil gliders<\/p>\n<p>5. Feeling fierce at an MMA course taught by Kenny Florian&#8217;s UFC coach (have you ever heard of hell -bows?)!<\/p>\n<p>6. Listening to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apoloantonohno.com\/home\">Apollo Ohno<\/a>, world record holder of gold medals at the Winter Olympics and my jaw dropping when he said during training he could leg press over 1900lbs!<\/p>\n<p>7. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amenclinics.com\/ \">Dr. Amen<\/a> &#8211; the brain doctor&#8230;you have to check out his studies.\u00a0 So fascinating!<\/p>\n<p>8. Meeting other fab peeps who are just as pumped to help others get fit and healthy and feeling inspired all over again\u00a0(insert warm fuzzies!)<\/p>\n\n<p>Last night, I tried some of my new found workout moves on my <a href=\"www.fitchicks.ca\/locations\">Toronto Bootcamp<\/a> and the feedback was awesome! I promise to share soon or you can come check them out at my next bootcamp that starts on Sept 5.<\/p>\n<p>Have a fabulous day!<\/p>\n<p>Laura xox<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey Chicks!
