Wire. All right. Also, what was this young couple doing with deadly homemade weapons . Explosives used and manuals in making bombs and booby traps. All reportedly found in their apartment by police. Its a very bizarre case. Very strange one. Indeed. If you are looking for sam this morning, well, you wont find him because hes on his honeymoon. There he is. Sam and rubem celebrating their second wedding in miami. And the happy couple with their delighted moms. We want to wish them all the happiness in the world. We miss you, sammie. Come back soon. Rest assured, theyre not watching this morning. Happy honeymoon. Lets get to the latest on that fiscal deal that almost wasnt. All kinds of drama right up to the new years deadline. And abcs jon karl on how it all came together. Good morning, jon. Reporter good morning, george. It was a dramatic end. To a bitter, highstakes debate. And late last night, it looked like it could fall apart. Was speaker of the house john boehner, pushed ahead anyway. It went right down to the wire. But at long last, they finally did it. The motion is adopted. Reporter just minutes before the stroke of midnight, the president welcomed the news. This law is just one step in the broader effort to strengthen our economy and broaden opportunity for everybody. Reporter but the bill almost went down in the face of heated objections from many house republicans. Theres no spending cuts. Were adding 4 billion a day to the debt. What were really doing is raising taxes to give the president more money to spend. We think thats a bad idea. Reporter even eric cantor, the secondhighest ranking republican in the house, was opposed to the deal struck by his colleagues in the senate. I do not support the bill. Reporter but others said, like it or not, the bill was the only way to prevent a big tax increase for virtually every american worker. Republicans and the American People are getting something really important, permanent tax relief. Reporter the bill will prevent an income tax relief on workers earning under 400,000 a year. It also will extend unemploym t unemployments for people looking for work. But the bill leaves a lot left to do. In two months, the government will hit the limit of how much money it can borrow, unless Congress Raises the socalled debt ceiling. An automatic, acrosstheboard spending cuts to the pentagon and other agencies, are only to be delayed for two months, setting up yet another fiscal cliff on march 1st. Congress has adjourned. The president is off to hawaii to meet up with his family. And hopefully, he thinks for a few days vacation. You mentioned the breathing for feelings got raw at the last minute. Reporter it got really nasty. In a story first reported by politico on friday when the congressional leaders met here at the white house, speaker of the house john boehner told the democratic leader, harry reid, off, using language i cant use here on good morning america. You cant even paraphrase. Lets get a closer look at what the deal means to you at home. Lots of paycheck changes right now. And Bianna Golodryga is at the smart screen to break it down. About 99 of americans protected from an income tax increase. But most workers will take a hit. Taking a hit from payroll taxes going up. This affects everyone making 110,000 or less. So, this year, anyone making 110,000 will be paying an extra 2,200 in taxes. People making 50,000 will pay an extra 1,000. And someone making 20,000 a year will be paying more 400 a year. But most of the burden falling on the top 1 . Lets take a look. Your typical hollywood movie star may be taking over 20 million in year. Theyll be paying 1 million in income taxes. Were talking about a lot of money. We heard jayz and beyonce earned close to 80 million last year. Theyre going to pay an additional 4 million in income taxes. Close to 5 increase in income taxes. One of the surprises. This deal is going to increase the deficit over the next ten years. But Financial Markets like what they see. Thats right. Markets like stability. They wanted some sort of resolve. Thats why we saw the markets rally on monday, assuming we were going to have a deal. And overnight, they liked the news. Big rally expected on wall street. We have the fiscal cliff coming up in a couple of weeks. Its not over yet. Another one is coming on the debt limit. Okay, bianna, thanks very much. Lets hope its not a wild ride. Now, we turn to Hillary Clintons health scare. The secretary of state has been in a hospital here in new york since sunday, when doctors discovered a blood clot near her brain. Were going to talk to dr. Richard besser about her condition in a moment. But Sharyn Alfonsi is here with the latest on secretary clintons condition. Good morning. Reporter good morning. This morning, clinton is being monitored closely and being given blood thinners to break up that clot. Her family rallying at her bedside, as the normally globetrotting secretary is grounded, preparing to spend a fourth day in the hospital. The former president and Chelsea Clinton leaving the hospital where the secretary is being treated this morning. The secret service stationed outside. Chelsea tweeting, thank you all for sending good thoughts my moms way. Grateful to all her doctors. And that shell make a full recovery. Reporter its been three weeks since the secretary of state was last seen in public. During an overseas tour where she picked up a bad stomach virus. Days later, she fainted and got that nasty concussion. An mri later revealing she had a blood clot. Her doctors saying the scan revealed a clot in the vein thats situated in the space between the brain and the skull behind the right ear. The secretary did not suffer neurologic damage. But its a setback. Shes the mosttraveled secretary of state ever. Visiting 112 countries. Logging nearly 1 million miles and spending the equivalent of an entire year of her life on a plane. Clinton telling barbara walters, the schedule has taken its toll. Youre leaving at the height of your career. Why are you leaving . Ive been, as you know, at the highest levels of american and now International Activities for 20 years. And i just thought it was time to take a step off. I wanted to take some time. And just really collect myself. Are you exhausted . I am. To be honest, i am. Because when i do something, i really want to do it. I want to do it to the best of my abilities. Reporter and the secretary is reportedly in good spirits. Engaging with her doctors and her husband, former president bill clinton, who has been at her side. It is unclear when she will be able to return at the state department before the new secretary of state is sworn in. Elizabeth . Sharyn, thanks so much. Lets turn to dr. Richard besser. Rich, we talked about this on monday morning, about this blood clot. We werent really clear what this was. The news has not been good. Its much more serious than what we thought. Yes, this can be very dangerous. Its called a transverse sinus thrombosis. The two big concerns if the clot breaks off, it can go to her heart and her lungs and be fatal. If it gets bigger, it can go to the top of the head, increasing the pressure on her skull. That can cause stroke and be deadly. They have been very clear to point out she did not suffer any kind of a stroke. When is she out of the woods for this . Shes been in the hospital now for several days. Being treated with blood thinners. At what point is the allclear given . It wasnt picked up due to neurologic findings. It was a followup mri. When shes out of the woods is when her blood is thin. Its been anticoagulated. Theyre able to see on the scans that the clot is starting to get smaller. Those are the things theyre watching for. Two things you have to be careful about with blood thinners. If they dont make her blood thin enough, the clot can break off. Or it can get bigger. If they make it too thin, she can bleed into her head or elsewhere in hee body. That can be severe. In the meantime, because she is a frontrunner, potentially, for the democratic president ial nomination in 2016, a lot of people are watching this closely. What kind of longterm ramifications are there for her health and general wellbeing . Well, really, the longterm consequences could be nothing. If they can control this, the clot would go away. Shell be on blood thinners for a period of time. But shell be able to go back to regular activities. Did this come because of the concussion . The fall . Thats not the conclusion. Well, thats still unanswered. Were going to hear more about that. Lets check back in with josh for a look at the morning headlines. Hey, josh. Good morning, elizabeth. Were going to begin with a poignant day for the survivors of the Sandy Hook School shooting in connecticut. Preparing now to return to classes for the First Time Since the tragedy. Classes actually resume tomorrow. But today, families will get a first look at the new location. The previous Chalk Hill Middle School in nearby monroe, just a few miles from newtown. A meticulously renovated school the students will now attend. And Abcs Amy Robach is in monroe this morning, to show us. Good morning to you, amy. Reporter josh, good morning to you. Were just down the street from chalk hill school. And we understand some families here, in an effort to show support to the students from sandy hook who will be returning to School Tomorrow morning, they have lined the streets, the bus route, with green ribbons, to make them feel the support of this community, as they head back into the halls of a classroom. We also know theres a new sign up on Chalk Hill Middle School that now reads sandy hook elementary school. As students go to class tomorrow, many of them will see a familiar face. Their former principal, donna page, who retired back in 2010, will be greeting them at the door. School officials and teachers have been getting those classrooms ready and really focusing on every, last detail. Making sure backpacks and desks, even the placement of crayons, is exactly as the students left them on that day back on december 14th. So they feel some sense of familiarity in their surroundings. We also know from the school superintendent, there will be counselors onhand. The focus will be academics. They want to get students back to learning, teachers back to teaching. They want to make sure everyone feels comfortable. And i think one of the most important thing we heard yesterday from a town official, josh, he said to abc news, this will be the Safest School in america. Josh . That is very good news. We wish them all the very best. Thank you for that, amy. Meanwhile, a connecticut lawyer suing the state for 100 million in the wake of those shootings has now dropped the case. The attorney representing a 6yearold survivor had claimed that the state didnt do enough to protect students. And new legal action in the wake of the Jerry SanduskySexual Abuse Scandal at penn state. Today, pennsylvanias governor is expected to sue the ncaa over the 60 million that it fined the school. That money is being used for a National Child abuse awareness campaign. Lawmakers not happy that taxpayer money is being spent in other states. And rough weather keeping the coast guard from getting to an oil rig that ran aground off of alaska. The rig owned by shell broke away from a tow ship during a powerful storm monday night. The crew was evacuated safely. But the rig is carrying roughly 150,000 gallons of diesel fuel. So far, theres no sign of a spill. And a rogue wave is being blamed for pulling a man out to sea off northern california. He was trying to save his dog in the 20foot waves. And finally, video going viral this morning. It shows you that you can be a hero and maybe look good doing it. A boat in new zealand, engulfed in flames. They needed a massive amount of water to put out that fire. Look what the driver of a nearby speedboat did, making that turn four times before finally extinguishing the fire. Thankfully, no one was hurt. Wow. He got so close. Yeah. That is really a great thing. Great stuff. Great stuff. Josh, thank you so much. You bet. Now, we go to that startling arrest of a young, manhattan couple for alleged possession of weapons and explosives popular with terrorists. She was nine months pregnant and gave birth to a baby girl in custody. Abcs john muller has more on the strange story. Reporter she is from a prominent family on new yorks ritzy upper east side. He is a harvard graduate. But this morning, police are investigating why 31yearold aaron green and his girlfriend, 27yearold morgan, had an arsenal of weapons, capable of massive destruction in their Greenwich Village apartment. They had a terrorists encyclopedia. They had improvised and modified firearms. Deadly homemade weapons. A doityourself sub machine gun. Reporter police had been investigating him for credit card fraud when they received a tip from a couple they invited into their apartment. When police went to investigate, a shocking discovery. Seven grams of a chemical called hmtd, a powerful explosive used in bombmaking. So unstable and dangerous, the entire building had to be evacuated saturday. Police also seized a flare launcher, a sawedoff shotgun with dozens of shells, nine rifle magazines and various howto manuals on building bombs and booby traps. My best professional guess is that, they are just two very drugaddicted, delusional people that got into this sort of way of thinking of, its sort of us against the world. Reporter so far, potential targets or a motive have not been determined. And police say the couple have no known links to any terrorist organizations. Now, we spoke to aaron greens lawyer. He has enter a plea of not guilty. Is expected in court again on friday. Morgan has yet to be arraigned because shes in the hospital after having a baby girl while in custody. We have been unable to reach anyone for comment on this. Police say the couple admits to being heroin users. A lot of questions here. Returning to josh. Much happier story. You brought this one back from the rose parade. This one got us all. Even if you saw it coming. A soldier home from afghanistan, brought yesterdays parade to a halt with a surprise reunion that had the crowd standing as one and cheering. And his young, little guy, smiling from eartoear. It was the reunion that warmed the hearts of millions during this years rose parade. A secret kept from just two people, miriam and her little boy, 4yearold eric. She thought they had won a trip to california and tickets to the parade. But they were about to get something far more precious. What did you have to do to win . My husband just entered his name, i guess. I just got a call letting me know that we won. He is a soldier stationed in afghanistan . Yes, hes in afghanistan right now. Reporter thats what she thought. Meanwhile, her husband, Army Sergeant eric pazz, was hidden on this float. Thats when it happened. Little eric recognizing his dad. And no ones arms could hold him. The crowd stood as one to watch, as pazz hugged his family, sweeping up his son and handing his wife a rose. It was a really great experience. I think the first thing i thought, oh, my lord, i hope shes not going to slap me for lying to her. And seeing our sons face, how he reacted. You know, i was really caught up in the moment. Reporter a warm embrace. A precious memory. The ultimate new years day surprise for a family reunited after seven long months apart. I can tell you, abc, we were in on it. And keeping the secret from her was quite a challenge, i must admit. And it does, again, allow us all to thank, not just the servicemen and women who are sacrificing so much for us. But military families, as well. Especially this time of year. It was great to watch. That little boys smiles not going anywhere. No way. Lets get the weather. Ginger zee in for sam, on his honeymoon.

Lets get to the trial of an arizona woman who has been charged with brutally killing her boyfriend after he tried to break up with her. She stabbed him, get this, 27 times allegedly. And shot him, as well, allegedly. And jodi arias could now be facing the Death Penalty. Dan and nancy are waiting to weigh in. But heres ryan owens with the background. Oh, holy night reporter that attractive woman singing Christmas Carols behind bars could soon be on death row. Prosecutors will argue that 32yearold jodi arias, should die for the onetime murder of her onetime boyfriend, travis alexander. She may sound softspoken. But police say she stabbed alexander 27 times, slit his throat, and shot him in the head at his arizona home, in 2008. Arias has pled not guilty. The two met at a work conference six years ago. Jodi says they fell in love, traveled the country together. And to strengthen her ties to the devout mormon, she even converted. But travis friends say, after dating a few months, she tried to break it off. And told them this. There is nothing about her that i see as marriage material or wife material. But its hard to say no to a woman that sneaks into your house, crawls in your bed and tries to, you know, seduce you. Reporter Travis Family and friends say jodi was stalking him in the months before the murder, something she denies. But at first, she denied being at his house at the night before the murder. Then, police found a camera in travis washing machine. It had pictures of the two having sex. And pictures of travis after she was killed. Faced with that, jodi told the show, inside edition, she was there, but didnt do it. I witnessed travis being attacked by two other individuals. Who . I dont know who they were. I couldnt pick them out in a police lineup. Reporter now, the accused killer is singing a new tune. Of hope reporter she admits she did kill him, but in selfdefense. She claims he was sexually and physically abusive throughout their relationship. It makes me sick because i know her true side. And i ask people to please not buy into this sweet, innocent, you know, personality that she puts on. No jury is going to convict me. Why not . Because im innocent. And you can mark my words on that one. No jury will convict me. Reporter for good morning america, ryan owens, abc news, dallas. For more, were joined by gma legal analyst, dan abrams. And nancy grace will cover the trial tonight on her hln show. It looks tough. Three different stories from jodi ha jodi arias. She wasnt there. She was there, but other people did it. She did it but it was selfdefense. When a witness begins to change their story, thats the kiss of death, pardon the pun. And another problem for her at trial, is she may want to insist on taking the stand against her attorneys advice. Remember, youre talking about the winner of American Idol behind bars. And that may be the shot youre showing right now. It is. She loves the limelight. And all this business about them being broken up. They werent broken up. They were having sex right before the murder. And with her changing stories, she also said she killed him in selfdefense. Thats three different stories she told police. How do you begin to defend her . I think in the end, the selfdefense claim is an effort to get seconddegree murder. I think they know theyre in big trouble here. She is now, by arguing selfdefense, effectively admitting that she did this, right . Shes not saying, i wasnt there. Shes not saying there were intruders. She is saying, i did it. I think this is an effort by her to say, youre not going to be able to prove premeditation. It happened in the heat of passion. We had a stormy relationship. And theres a big difference between seconddegree murder and firstdegree murder. They dont need premeditation. They also charged her with felony murder, which simply means the death occurs during the commission of a felony. Here, theyre saying the felony is burglary. Which means you enter a structure with the intent to commit a crime. She went into the home with a gun. Listen he was shot. He was stabbed. He was beaten. Boom. But those are two different legal theories that are requiring the same idea, which is she went in there with the intent to do something. And theyre going to argue, with this seconddegree murder, i think, that she didnt go in there with the intent to commit any kind of crime. She went in with a gun. I heard a lot about crazy sex. But when you introduce a gun into the scenario, thats little too crazy, even for a jury. Do you think the prosecutions overreaching by going for the firstdegree . I think the prosecutors are overreaching going for the Death Penalty. That may be funny to you. But thats not funny to me. Took pictures of him dead in the shower. Okay . Theres no question this is a legal matter. One question theres no question it is a legal matter. They can pursue the Death Penalty. They have theory here, which is not out of bounds about why the Death Penalty applies. The Death Penalty should be the worst of the worst. This is a Domestic Violence case. She ought to be charged with murder. She ought not to be charged with the Death Penalty. Because that was her boyfriend, that makes it less valuable . She stabbed him 27 times. And she took pictures of him, dead, naked, in the shower. She took her own crime scene photos, for pete sake. There was blood all the way down the stairwell. Thats why she is charged with murder. This is a classic, Death Penalty case. Youre passionate over this. Hold on. Does she take the stand or not . I think shes going to argue selfdefense, she has to take the stand. But i cant see how she does. I think, if theyre serious about a selfdefense claim, shes going to have to take the stand. Well have you both back on this. Nancy covers it tonight. Time for the weather. Ginger z ginger zee, in for sam. It is the coldest morning, from chicago, to boston. You can see steam coming up from the buildings. Temperature right now is 18, windchill 7.

It was a cold, wintry december night. And espn anchor, hannah storm was rushing to get dinner on her table for the kids. We have a propane grill. I went outside to light it to cook the meat. Went back inside. It was a windy night. The flames had been blown out that i ignited. So, i turned the gas off. I went to reignite. And there was an explosion. A wall of fire, like something you see in a movie. It came right at me. An explosion so powerful and fierce. It literally blew the doors of the grill off. I looked down and i saw i was on fire. And thats you know, thats a terrible feeling. So, i yelled inside to my daughter, mommy is on fire. Call 911. Reporter her daughter, rushed to her side. Nothing phases her. To have a calm person like that, in that kind of situation, is unbelievable. My other daughter, who was home, was so terrified. She couldnt even look at me. She was huddled with our dog in another room. Reporter and the unknown. Wondering what she would see when she could see herself again. What i saw in the mirror was scary. I looked completely disfigured. Lost a lot of my good bless the nurse who cut off my hair off. This is all fake. I had my kids changing my bandages. Come on. Leaving little sticky notes.

I dont know if i could have done this day with anyone other than you. Thank you. Reporter the feeling is mutual. It has never, ever been better to see you. Happy new year. Happy new year, josh. Dear, dear friend of mine. I worked with her for years. We coanchored sportscenter together in the mornings. She told me, though, this is important to note. What happened is the propane in the tank, its heavier than air. Especially in the winter. It doesnt just blow away in the winds. She thought she had stepped away, everything had blown out. When she went to light it again, the propane had lingered. Theres a lot of warning signs on grills now. Wait at least 15 minutes, if the same thing happens before you reignite. Its important for people to understand that so what happened to hannah doesnt happen to them. Everybody would have done that. You have to be really careful. It was wonderful to see her.

To the break. You do that. Were going to keep talking about the stories that people are talking about. Kate middleton take pride in what she wears. Thats during her pregnancy. Were wondering about her maternity fashion. How will she do it . And what trends will they spark . I think every trend will be sparked. A morning wouldnt be complete without grown men vr versus gators. Oneonone with the ninefoot beasts. Right, now, we get a final check of the weather. Ginger zee in for sam. This is the best crowd this morning. These folks are from austin, texas. And these two are not warm, either. Hi, mom. They want to say good morning and get their shakes out. It is cold. I cant believe the dancers are out here. Thank you for everyone braving this. And speaking of snow, lets talk about whos going to be cold and snowed the next couple of days. Marquette, theyre picking up a little more. And watertown, new york, buffalo, all in it. Lets slide across the nation to give you an idea of what you can expect today. If youre in ft. Collins, right around freezing. Most of the nation experiencing some of the coldest air of im telling you. I swear, this crowd, all brought to you from texas. The Weather Report brought to you by aig. Where are you from in texas . Odessa. Were trying to stay warm out here, for sure. Lets head back in to elizabeth. Ginger, thank you so much. Now, to the royal baby watch. All eyes are on Kate Middleton as the baby bump grows. The big question, of course, is what will she be wearing . We have four style iicise iie i turnty looks to show you. Just as pressing a question, is the question on all fashionistas minds. What will she wear . She is going to look fabulous when she is pregnant. It will be chic, stylish. Reporter kate is a fashion icon. Prompting whatever she wears to fly off store shelves. Her favorite, items that show off her figure. Like the blew issa dress. And the Alexander Mcqueen wedding gown she donned in 2011. Shes well on her way. Burton designed the wool evening gown kate wore to her december event. Her First Official engagement since announcing her pregnancy. While kate is going to stay away from the flouncy fashions Princess Diana made famous, mras insiders say, dont expect her to be too edgy. You can expect it to be conservative. Nothing too over the top. Joining us now with four stylish looks we could see on kate, is rosie pope, founder of rosie pope maternity. Good to have you here. We were talking here, when i was pregnant, i couldnt find clothes for working women. There were big sweaters and leggings. But that was about it. I think kate is going to change that. She is a working mom. And she has to look professional and not wear all of the baggy sweaters and leggings. This isnt just about what is kate wearing when she is pregnant . This is a huge business. She sells clothing. This is amazing. Its going to transform the face of maternity fashion. Nonpregnant women are going to turn to maternity fashion. Lets get to the looks you expect to see . Kate is going to have working engagements. Shes going to have ribboncutting. And this is an example of how kate will stay tailored. This is a dress, in a very regal fabric. Its maternity and structured. She wears formfitting clothes without being too sexy or revealing. It has a high neckline. When she leans down to shake peoples hands, she, of course, stays elegant and professional. And its not a tent dress. And it looks lovely on her. Shes going to wear a leather jacket, which she does. And jackets are a great piece if pregnant women want to splurge. You can wear them after the baby. During your pregnancy, with the raging hormones, sometimes you need to take the jacket on and off. Its a good way to think smartly about the changing body temperature. I think a lot of us think about the outfit. And the jacket takes the outfit down a level. You can feel great when you have it on. And fitted . She always is fitted. We have to be careful because of how the bump grows. I suggest one button at the top. The next look, this is another jacket. I saul this the sloan ranger work. Sloan rangers are ladies in the upper class in england, that wear the boots, the hunter boots, tight leggings. And hang out in the square and look to marry the eligible bachelors like prince harry. This is a sloan ranger look. A great hacking jacket. A maternity belly legging. And the boots. Its great. And it doesnt have to be a maternity jacket. And jackets are more expensive. Theyre more of an investment piece. Next, we have prints i was surprised by. You have lace and plaid. We all remember the dress that kate wore at the premiere. This is the maternity version of that dress. Its lace and stretchy. Its pretty. And the nude pumps. Her in the nude pumps. Im surprised you thought plaid would be a trend. Kate was at st. Andrews. Plaid will be a part of her past. You will see the plaid, when shes being very casual. And its great for optical illusion. I think kate will try to hide the bump for as long as possible. And plaid, with this lovely model here, who is very pregnant, makes the bump harder to see. And i say go with the tailored. Were not talking log cabin here. Very tailored and pretty and british. Its important to note that this is made for pregnant women. Theyre longer and stretchier and more fitted. And more airier around here, is why the buttons are so great. And we have our models. And theyre using a special sweater to commemorate the baby being born this year. You look great and glowing this morning. Thank you for modeling. Coming up, trainer to the stars, Tracy Anderson is here to jumpstart your january with secrets in fitness you dont want to miss out on. [ cheers and applause ] come on, josh. Lets do it. Were jumpstarting our january here on gma. Doing things all month long. Were here with, there she is, superstar trainer, Tracy Anderson. This crowd is so excited, in case you didnt know it. Tracy has transformed some amazing bodies. Superstars like Jennifer Lopez, on the cover of red book magazine this month with gwyneth paltrow. On redbook sharing her secrets, right here and in redbook for getting that alist body. Excited to be here. Happy new year. Dancing, weve been watching out morning long. Tre teens love to do it. Gwyneth wasnt a natural dancer opinion but it helped change her body. We spent the last week together, rocking it out. Shes quite the dancer now. She stuck with it. And now, she is a dancer. Why is dancing so good . Its good because it works all of the muscles in your body. It requires your brain to be participating in your workout. And its movement in a balanced way. If youre running, youre always charging up the same muscles. When you have to learn to dance, you use everything. And youre having fun. You get into it. When you learn to perform, when she got the dancing down and she got to perform it, her results became even better. It seems like its makes it an easier sell. Interestingly, the cdc says more than onethird of all children and teens are overweight or obese. I know this is something that you address in your video. It really does help, you know, selling it to the younger people to get going. Its a big deal. But you know, its the fun factor of the dance. But yet, just dancing and just stopping and going is not focused workingout. Just like how we brush our teeth. We cant take them to the hair salon or get their nails down. We have to empower them with the tools to have a sustained fit and healthy life. Thats what Team Metamorphosis is all about. The moms and the kids can dance, too, now. Its about the whole family leading a healthy, happy lifestyle. Completely. Another trick is switching it up. Something that Jennifer Lopez learned from you. Absolutely. You cant just switch it up without focus. You wouldnt build a house without plans. You need to turn to your experts and take a program that has the body results that you want. And with my program you have to change your workout every ten days. But theres the same end goal result. Im going to make sure that jennifer looks fantastic. She switches it up every ten days. And shes done it on her amazing world tour. You used the word goal. Really important, pick a goal. You are how you move. And you are how you eat. We should be eating clean and eating things that are organic. Hormonefree. You can eat whatever you want, as long as youre making these choices. Your muscles will be designed how you move them or dont move them. Its important to pick the program thats going to give you the body that you want. My clients want to own their own beauty. And five to ten minutes, if you can commit to even that, if youre a work mom, if you work long hours, you can start small and still see results. You can start small. But its about being consistent. You can start small. If you can only make it through five minutes because thats the reality of how where youre at physically, you start with five minutes. The next day you do 10, the next 15. And hopefully you work up to 30 minutes to an hour 6 days a week. And you brought in the ta trampoline. I made sure the movements are dance oriented. People dont have is a lot of room to dance in their homes. Its really easy on your joints. You can dance on it, you know . Go, go. Woo, in the dress. Much more from tracy coming up a bit later. Also coming up, were going to meet the gator boys, going oneonone with animals in the wild. As they go oneonone, with these trampolines. [ cheers and applause ] were back with a behindthescenes look at a day in the life of the gator boy. They trap gators from backyards, swimming pools. They get a big kick out of it. And took abcs matt gutman along for the ride. Reporter youre thinking to yourself, so what if its a 230pound gator . Plus, im with professional alligator wrestlers. Theres no way im going to squeal. Luckily, im with the gator boys. This motley pair of gator whisperers, of sorts. Ready . Up. Reporter three, grown men carrying a ninefoot slap of rehistoric muscle, with teeth. Gator boys, men whose abiding love for gators is so strong, theyre rescuing the beast with a bite that can crush a car, just to save his skin. For them, its this or being shot. Or turned into a suitcase or a handbag. Nuisance gators have to be in captivity or be destroyed. Reporter here at the homestead alligator farm in the everglades. Theyre right there. They have to go over the rocks. Reporter the boys get closer to gators that seems sane. In their second season, they track gators in the mississippi mud. Theyre distinguished by an apparent immunity to fear. And trademark quirks. The no shoes, for example . Since i started wrestling alligators, i started with shoes on. And you didnt feel right. You didnt have the right footing. I started going barefooted. Reporter no props. No prods. Thats real blood. Youre the epitome of dont try this at home. Exactly. Reporter how many Years Experience do you have in this this. Well over 34 collectively. Reporter how many bites . I have seven. Over probably 40. Reporter on this day, the gator boys have two gators to dispose of. The ninefoot monster and this little guy. What are we doing with this guy . Were going to bring him out. And because hes under four feet, we have to release him to the wild. Reporter this guy doesnt do damage, right . If this guy bit you and kept spinning, its going to pop a finger off. Reporter we drive off in an airboat to the heart of the everglades. And we release the little guy. How do you love these quote unquote killers . We love them. But they wont think twice about biting you again. I dont like puffy things. Like puppies. I like sharks, gators, snakes. Reporter we head back to the gator farm. You get in front of them. Reporter im not doing this. To safely trap a gator, one must tire it out first. But quickly, pauls gator tires me out.
