[joshuagil1]

I listen to Hardstyle music XD

[singlemindedgirl]

City Chic - I have that book, too! :)

[SupaJohnful]

just listen to the rocky theme song

[ImMo1256]

I think its funny that behind you are a bunch of diet books.

[urhighness0]

Hm I Was Wondering If You Could Motivate Me Becuase Every time I'm Done working Out I Just Go Straight To Eating And Can't Stop Thnx For The Help ^_^

[Celene9877]

I find it better to plan what time i am going to start and what time im going to finish say ill start at 8:30 pm till 9:00 or 9:30pm i like running at night because i run faster because its darek and i feel a little scared :P even though i have nothing to worry about :) that is just how i feel you dont have to do this :P :D i hope this helped

[SuperHefner]

i think you should do the next video topless. just a little tip to make it watchable.

[lilbitparanoid]

Drink water drink water drink water until you puke, except immediately before you work out. (don't want to get a cramp) carb up a few hours before, cup of coffee and a vitamin B-12 45 minutes before. warm up slowly for 10-15 minutes and all of a sudden, your body is ready to blow the cobwebs out, so to speak. Too much caffeine restricts blood flow in the body and is actually counter productive, so don't over do it. Substances that dialate blood vessels in the body help- i.e. Mary Jane

i like the new music idear

[RonQE]

Some good ideas. A little evident, perhaps, but good for beginners or the people who haven't put much thought into motivating themselves, yet.

Please consider limiting your ads to 15 seconds for videos of this length, though. It can discourage people from watching your videos when they have to sit through an annoying ad for 30 seconds to watch a 2-minute video.

blast these toyota commercials.

[TheHealthKitten]

You motivate me, Sarah!

[b413au]

Hey Sarah,

I have recently suffered a back injury from an accident at work. I used to work out all the time, and now I can't do as much as I used to. Do you have any tips on what types of exercises I can do so that I don't cause stress on my back? It'd be much appreciated!

[imabigfatblah]

I really love your videos, Sarah! Anyway, my fiance recently went to a continuing education conference, and the spokesperson dietician said you can only absorb 15g of protein at a time. What are your thoughts on this?

[MJgal125]

i luv ur tips!:D

and somehow when I'm running,I'll imagine my boyfriend/celebrity crush cherring me on and I could run super fast and not get out of breath!:D

[beforethestormx31]

Thanks for the tips! :)

[JGP5217]

Hey, yeah! Jillian gets me pumped, too. Mostly it's when I feel I'm about to collapse in a workout, like running or a really tough circuit. She provides a...scary sort of motivation, but effective nonetheless. Haha. Seriously, thank you for giving your own brand of motivation, Sarah. It's been a big help, and I look forward to more videos from you!

[hdryver]

Didn't mean to post twice. I thought the post button wasn't working, so I posted again at a later time.

[hdryver]

Ha Ha. Hey Sarah. I totally think of biggest loser when I run. I always think, if they can work out hard and sweat the way they do, then I can run these "easy" 3 or 4 miles. =)

-Heather

[JasMine1307]

I love the biggest loser too!

[hdryver]

Ha ha. Hey Sarah. I totally think of biggest loser when I run too. I'm like, if they can do all that hard work and sweat the way they do, my 3 or 4 miles seems like nothing. But it keeps me motivated=)

[TheMchirico]

SarahFit, your beautiful. Goodluck on the Oprah challenge, you look like quite the competitor.

[djmixmind]

What kind of Caffeine do you drink ??

Soda? Coffee? I didn't think it would be good to have some Caffeine at all.

LOVE THE VIDEOS!!!

[SarahsFabChannel]

@djmixmind coffee and yerba mate - it's tea

[indian838]

Hey Sarah, what do you recommend drinking while working out? because i work out atleast like 2 hours, and chilled cold water doesn't do any good for me, it just makes me hungry. I was thinking about getting gatorade, but i would have to buy lots and lots of packs for gatorade, which will cost a lot. So, please reply back, thanks.

[siamesesunshine]

Hi Sarah, so i just bought a dance mat to play on playstation and i was wondering if it would work like cardio excercises or not? and can i just dance on it instead of going out and run? (it has a workout mode and i want to know if it really works..) cos i live in Thailand and it's just too hot outside and i don't wanna get heat strokes lol Thanks :)

[motyyam]

getting 6 abs .. I gotta burn this little fat on my belly ..

thanks for posting this SARA... you're the best on Youtube.. Love you ..

[Anahellalina]

Great tips! This will help me alot.

But I need HELP! I'm trying to cut sugars from candies, cakes, cookies, ect out of my life. I know i can eat fruits but i feel like its not working. My mom bought the Biggest Loser Cook book, and my mom makes dessert once a month if i'm lucky (and she only buys when she plans on making) and to make matters worse I live in Florida and its getting hot, meaning tempting cold ice cream. Any tips or suggestions are very much appreciated! Thanks for all you do!

[mettabee]

i find the biggest motivatory is seeing the progress i'm making

[KroetenKuni]

great tips, thank you!!!

[14Kaley]

Thanks sarah!

[pongman]

Thanks. So how do you get motivated to want to get motivated? I think I'm in that category.

[vsdreamangl22]

Thank you for these tips Sarah!! Your awesome! I'm going to try them all!

[deborahlau18]

thanks for the video :)

[abhishekh14]

my goal is to get to my appropriate bmi :D

[PoshPopulation]

Please subscribe to my channel for tutorials and makeup reviews!!

[genuinelysarcastic]

I love you! I use the EXACT same biggest loser analogy. I hate squats and I'm like if J-Mikes has 400lb men doing them, I can too!

[Kahalasama]

Sarah forgot to mention her cuteness as good motivation. She should say that guys who work out really turn her on.

Aside from that, music works the best for me.

[ducky917]

Hey Sarah! Every tip you mentioned is the same things I do to get motivate to workout:-D for me the biggest loser is a BIG motivator for me cause I think the same way as you...If these people that are 300/400lbs over weight with health problems can DO IT then why can't I. And that is what pushes me to do those last few min of cardio....I LOVE Bob and Jillian!!! This June Jillian is starting her own show. CAN'T WAIT!:)

[thePrettyPrettygirl]

Thank you,it is helpful...I love Jiliaaaaan Micheals!

[t3rmin4l]

Awesome tipes! Next time you do suggestions would you put a list of songs you HAVE to have on your ipod for running? that would be awesome!

[SarahsFabChannel]

@t3rmin4l just uploaded a new video with my new fave songs!

[bambams87]

Love your vids Sarah!

[mrrandy1]

I wish we could see you dressed up like a lady sometime.

[speedgirl131]

Hi!

my goal is to get to a healthy weight and size for my age. i'm doing weight watchers right now and lost about 10 pounds!

[svavakr]

That thing you said about The Biggest Loser is so true for me too. Jillian Michaels is my imaginary personal trainer haha... And just watching the show makes me want to go work out!

Thanks for some great tips:)

[ninaf8]

hey sarah, a personal trainer at my gym told me to start my work outs focusing on "primary movements". can you make a video about those? he told me about just focusing on push ups, lunges, squads, etc. also, i love your channel ! please post more often on tumblr ! :D

[kosovitacielo]

what kind of music do you hear when you exercise?

[SarahsFabChannel]

@kosovitacielo I posted a video on this on Monday- I hope you got to check it out :)

[leoisillon06]

great tips, thanks!

[vida130]

I have come to find out that I actually love the feeling I get after a workout! I am in a weighloss plateau right now and it's got be going insane!!! Any suggestions? I know that I won't be giving up and going to the junkfood buffet but somethings gotta give!!!

[bintmasrya]

thanks for the tips! i watched you on my iphone today at the gym with your new app :D

[dianarazzberry]

I love the biggest loser too!!!

Can you do a video on some of the books/dvds that we see in the background of this video? Ones you recommend and such.

PLEASE???

[doubtfuldreamer]

I worked out and ate right for a month and still nothing changed so I gave up

[drkraven15]

thanks for this, my motivation has been severely lacking this past month. i used to work out every day, but lately i'm lucky to get a work out in 3 days a week. but i'm trying to get back on track. today's the first sunny day we've had in 2 weeks and i'm determined to run a mile today.

[krusher611]

thats awesome sometimes I am just like you I don't really feel like going to work out and then I get a song with a killer beat and have to try it out running or lifting

[beckybeck8]

sarah, can you tell what you normally eat on a normal day.. on a diet.. or just to maintain.. how do you maintain your GREAT body. Do you work out everyday?

[xStuStux]

i love biggest loser too!! I actually just purchased one of Jillians workout dvds just so i could have her yelling at me lol

[accebernosam]

thanks for your tips! i'm not just saying this... these actually helped! i never thought of having caffeine before working out :) thanks x
