She Does Lower Body Workouts
As you can see from her Instagram post, Dees doesn’t skip leg day. Lower body workouts are extremely important. Piedmont states, “Having strong glutes, quadriceps, hamstrings and calf muscles gives your body a strong foundation and can: Tone your lower body muscles. Boost your metabolism as you increase muscle mass. Give you a higher calorie burn as you train larger muscle groups. Improve your balance. Strengthen your bones. Reduce joint pain. Reduce your risk of injury, particularly in your back and knees. Decrease lower back pain. Prevent injuries.”
She Cooks
Dees makes sure to cook healthy meals for herself. In this Instagram post, she shared her favorite breakfast meal. Dees captioned it, “One of my Favorite Breakfasts that makes the start of my day amazing! @cutlernutrition has coco puff #protein powder (link in bio) that makes my coffee taste like a lil mocha with all the goodness! And this Ninja coffee maker, it’s so easy! Recipe as follows: 1/2 sc protein powder in 12oz of favorite coffee. 2 pieces of Dave’s Killer thin slice bread. 1/2 tbsp smart balance. 2 whole eggs (can sub for just whites). 1/2oz of avocado.

She Hikes
Dees shared this video on Instagram of herself and some friends hiking in Utah. She captioned it, “I wouldn’t say I’m a ‘hiker’ .. is that a term?! Lol! But I will accept invites when friends ask, and I am never disappointed in my #beautiful Home Town #UT 🍁🌲🏔 I am always in awe just looking at the #Mountains !! Being in them is another level! #BloodLakeTrail is about a 6 mile round trip! Elevation was 10,076ft Max .. carrying #Roomi some of the way definitely increased the intensity haha! So fun! Thanks for the invite @vdreadre .. with @karliita_1 & Sandi we had 4 decades between us! Love being around my #women ! 💖”
She Dances
Dees likes to dance to keep herself in shape. She shared this video on Instagram of herself dancing with an instructor. Dees captioned it, “THERAPY! .. Dance lessons have become therapy through movement and connection. That is the best way I can describe my new found love for soul coast dancing! I have found there’s so many parallels to the way you move through life & how you move through dancing! Grounding, getting out of my head, being in flow not control, trusting myself are all tools that have came through #soulcoastdance … as I have learned from @jakeytrim !”
She Doesn't Make Excuses
Dees doesn’t believe in making excuses. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram video. “Why do you tell yourself you can’t?? Time to get rid of all the excuses! No to age limiting beliefs, Yes you do have time, Yes you can feel good again, Yes your body will! Stop the reasons! The time is going to pass either way… make the time for health, make the time to feel good about yourself! We are here to Help!”
