SUNDAYS!

Sundays..I have a love/hate relationship with them. No need to explain why haha. Today I had Yoga Fix and although it's not my favorite, you really do get a good stretch in! Active Recovery day!

So, I was reading Fitness Magazine today and stumbled upon something pretty shocking! The information I'm about to share with you is not my own, it's information I got from Fitness Magazine and their source says Center for Science in the Public Interest.

"2,780 calories in the Cheesecake Factory's Bruleed French Toast, one of the nine unhealthiest menu items in America! To make your own French toast (stuffed with strawberries and cream cheese!) for only 300 calories, go to fitnessmagazine/frenchtoast."

Now personally, I don't eat out a lot but I know a lot of people that just love the cheese cake factory! I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with the restaurant, but just take a closer look into what you're eating! You may be eating one mean that contains more than a lot of people's calorie intake per day! (or what it should be)

Let's eat healthy and be healthy together!

Making Excuses As To Why You Can't Workout

Everyone could get the body that they want.
All you need is hard work, dedication and excitement about what you're doing! (Which is easy because you'll just feel so good!)

I hear so many people say that they don't like the way they look and that they're going to start working out and eating healthier. A lot of times, however, this only lasts a few days to a week or so. I have been there! I know what it's like!

You may find yourself saying things like:
-I'm too tired
-I worked too long today
-I work too early/too late
-I have kids
-I'm sore
-I have plans

Whatever you can come up with...excuses. You're tired? Go to bed earlier! Get some zzzs! They're good for you! You work a lot? So do a lot of people...make the time! It'll improve your mood which will help improve your work ethic! Kids? Get them involved! Kids love being involved! And if they don't like it, don't make them! Its okay to have time to work on yourself while they entertain themselves for a little bit! Sore? Good! Stretch & strengthen! Plans? Work around them. You got this.

So tell me one thing...
A few days/weeks compared to your whole life isn't very much is it!? No! If you want something you've never had then you have to do something you've never done! This is a life change! And an amazing one may I add! :)

YOU WANT THIS. Why not give yourself this!? Fall in love with the process and the results will come. Don't put yourself down. YOU are enough! You can do anything you put your mind to!

If you don't take care of your body, where will you live?

Getting started is always hard...but that's the point. Pushing yourself. Finding out what your body is capable of..because it is capable of so much more than you know! It's your mind you have to convince.

Why not start?
Why not feel amazing?

Remember, a one hour workout is only 4% of your day. You don't find time...you make time.

what you do everyday matters more than what you do every once in a while

Hello, sunday! How is everyone doing? Great, I hope!

Today I'm going to talk a little bit about what some of my favorite workouts are within the different days through out 21 day fix.

If you're curious as to what the workouts are, you can google them in images and it'll show you how to do each one! :)

Total Body Cardio Fix: 

Squat To Woodchop 

Upper FIx:

Lat Pull Over

Lower Fix:

Calf Raises with 10 second hold at the end

Pilates:

Plank Series as a whole

Cardio Fix:

Burpees

Dirty 30:

Chest Fly Raise

Leave comments, I would love to hear what moves you like from your workouts!

One thing I love about 21 day fix is that it incorporates weights. I am feeling stronger everyday and I can feel my confidence going up!

Remember, what you eat is a huge part of working out and being healthy! What you eat will inspire your friends and family to eat better too! I just happen to be lucky...my boyfriend loves to cook and loves to eat everything so it's awesome! He cooks us very healthy different meals all of the time!

What is one of your favorite meals?

Coming Back After The Holidays😊

After the holidays it's always hard to get back into your healthy eating habits and getting those workouts in...but you have to push through! You can accomplish anything you set your mind to!

How are you feeling so far?

I'm actually feeling amazing! Fully energized and ready to tackle the month ahead of me! :)

This morning I had Upper Fix and it was great! I can feel myself getting stronger :)

So I was reading women's health mag online & of course I stumbled upon something I'd like to share.

The following is from womenshealthmag.com

9 ways to become more active outdoors :)

-Act Like A Kid (play!)
-Hit The Mat (outdoor yoga!)
-Use Outdoor Things As A Gym (tree/pole with a resistance band for ex!)
-Be A Track Star (go running at your local track)
-Find Some Sand (yoga/jog on the beach for a extra push!)
-Get The Right Gear (shoes matter!)
-Pick Up Sticks (literally!)
-Clear Your Head (going outside in the fresh air for some YOU time!)

If you haven't, go get it!

Get fit or get out :)

It's been a minute!!!

Hey everyone! It's been a minute since I have had a chance to blog but don't worry! I'm back 😊✌
Today I'm going to write about a couple different things.

First things first...

Why morning workouts work best for me and why you should def try them! ⭐

-It's easier to wake up a little earlier and workout than it is to workout after a long day at work!
-It gives you that extra wake up boost that we all need!
-You feel way more confident through out the day
-You feel accomplished and it will help motivate you to get other things done during the day at work and at home!
-You're more likely to stick to a healthy eating plan!


Opinions? Comment below! :)


I also got off schedule waiting for 21 Day Fix to come in so I decided to restart Insanity again last week! :)
Today I finished week 2 day 4! Cardio Recovery- slow repetitive moves... "But it's not cardio, its control" -ShaunT
How do I feel?
Strong, Proud, Determined, Confident, Excited, Sore!

Tonight I have day 3 of 21 Day Fix. Its pilates fix. I'm kind of nervous because I have never done pilates!
So far, I love Autumn. I love how she always reminds you to work the booty. Everyone loves a nice ass!

Don't forget to check out my Instagram for more pics and workout motivation!

Hey everyone! :) How are you and how are your workouts!?

First I'd like to say a little about the title of this post. If you hate your body and dislike yourself, all your going to think is how you are not good enough...well guess what? You are good enough! You should try to start by recognizing that you are you. You aren't that person you see online or that person you see in your workout videos. You are you and that's amazing! You can help yourself and make yourself feel better...which is exactly what working out does! :) You have the time to do it, you just need to make the time! Don't forget...and I always remind myself of this...a one hour workout is only four percent of your day!

Alrighty, tonight I have a couple tips for you on how to wake up early and workout! (I know what you're thinking...yuck; but hear me out!) I found these tips on pintrest and just couldn't help but share them! :)

HOW TO WAKE UP EARLY AND WORKOUT

*Go To Bed Early
*Prepare The Night Before
*Put Your Alarm Somewhere You Have To Get Up To Turn It Off
*Keep Your Playlist Updated
*Make It A Date (find someone to workout with)
*Keep It Interesting


:) I found that the more I forced myself to wake up in the morning the better my days went! I had more energy for work and for life in general. I also had a positive outlook and more patience.

Today, I'd also like to share a song with you that I love to listen to that makes me feel unstoppable! :)

It's called "Touch the sky" from the movie Brave.

Above is the link to the song if you're interested! :)

Go Press Play...you won't regret it!

At first they'll ask you why you're doing it. Later, they'll ask you how you did it.

What's New?

Hey everyone! How are everyone's workouts going? For me today? Taking a break...pulled a muscle in my leg and am having a hard time walking around and don't really want to damage it more. As for you? I'd like you to do an extra little workout if you can MAKE the time! ;)

I like to read over Women's Health Magazine and find out some new information. Today, I found the Women's Health Weekend Challenge. Now, I know it's not the weekend anymore...but who cares right!?

Here is a little plank work I'd like you to try! (Because who doesn't love planks!?) This information is not my own and if you'd like to read more about it, you can go to: http://www.womenshealthmag.com/fitness/core-challenging-move

It's always good to try a new move and who doesn't want to make their core stronger!?
If you try it and want to let me know what you think, please leave comments below! :)


I would also like to share a really easy and delicious recipe that you could try for dinner soon! :) I had these a few days ago and they were so good! :)

All you need for this wonderful burger is four items! :)

*Ground Turkey
*Avacado
*Bread Crumbs
*Garlic

Literally all you have to do is mix the ingredients in a bowl and then shape them into burgers and cook! :) (Don't forget your wheat buns! You can't even taste the difference!)

I swear, I could put avacado in everything! I am a avacado addict! :) What do you like!?

As always, if you haven't yet, press play! :)
