Workout Wednesday

How is everyone's hump day!? The week is about half over and we're that much closer to the weekend! (For many of us, that's a 3 day weekend for Labor Day) :) My day is going pretty great, I just had some fabulous chili for lunch that my boyfriend made! :) So delicious.

So, today I'm going to gush about how much I love sweating!💧

One thing I start to feel sometimes when I'm working out is how tired I feel, how I am out of breath..and well sometimes how I just don't feel like doing the work. One of the simple things that really keeps me motivated is seeing those beads of sweat dripping as I'm struggling to hold my plank or get those last five squats in...it fuels me! It's awesome knowing that I am changing my body and therefore changing my attitude towards my workouts and my life in general.

Tonight I have Pure Cardio and Cardio Abs. Pure Cardio is my favorite workout from the first half of Insanity DVDs because it's non-stop cardio. I feel very strong here. 💪As far as cardio abs go..well, who doesn't like that burn in your abs!?

Get your workout in!

Fit Test

Today I took my fitness test for the second time :) Below are my results from the first test to the second. (Before the slash are my results from the first time around and after the slash are my results from the second time around)

Switch Kicks: 73/90
Power Jacks: 50/55
Power Knees: 97/115
Power Jumps: 19/27
Globe Jumps: 7/9
Suicide: 18/23
Push Up Jacks: 11/15
Low Plank Obliques: 40/64

My results changed a lot I think! I know I can do better and I cannot wait to see what my results are from the next fitness test in two weeks! :)

One thing that I love about working out is the way that I feel after I finish. The confidence I feel is completely wonderful. If you are looking for a booster for your mood...then no doubt, you should put on some workout clothes and start working out. Whether you have a program that you're doing, you have your own workout plan, you lift, run...whatever it is or whatever you're interested in...GO GET IT DONE! :)

Find the time in your day to accomplish something that you won't regret. After all, a one hour workout is only 4% of your day...Excuses? Nah. :)

To Discover What's Possible With Your Body, You Must First Conquer Your Mind

Let's get started!

My name is Chasidy and I am here to write a simple blog about fitness. First, I suppose I could start off with a little bit about myself. I spent a lot of time saying that I was going to start and complete a workout program. Finally, something happened in my life where I decided that enough was enough. I wanted to help myself and I did. I completed the Insanity program a few months ago and ever since, all I can think about is working out. 

Within just the first month, this is how much I changed...


One thing I learned while going through the program was that, obviously it's not easy but it's worth it. Getting in a good sweat makes you feel powerful, confident and a sense of overwhelming bliss that I can't explain. 

So, where do I want to start? 

My goal for this blog is to share my story, and hear other people's stories. This page is for motivation and positive comments only.

Comments are always welcome! 

What are your goals? What workout program works for you? 

Let's do this together!!
