It never ceases to amaze me how easy it is to lose all workout motivation after you’ve taken one too many days off. Excuses of why you don’t need to workout today are everywhere, and I’ve been listening a bit too often lately. But no mas! I’m determined to get back into my much-needed sweat…
So Fit & So Lean Workout + My Favorite Things
As promised on Instagram Monday, I have a workout to share today! I decided to create this full body dumbbell circuit after wanting/needing a change of pace. They say, “Never miss a Monday workout,” and that was one of my goals for my new weekly workout schedule, so a new routine was exactly what I…
Pure Cardio HIIT Workout + My Favorite Things
For those days when you’re full of energy and want to have an awesome, heart-pumping workout, cardio feels amazing. I recently craved the intensity of an HIIT, cardio-focused circuit, so I crafted a new workout. It took me around 25 minutes to complete three times through. The old lady that I am, my hip was…
No-Equipment Buddy Workout
In honor of tomorrow being Valentine’s Day, I’ve created a partner workout for you to do with a woman or man friend in your life. Although Matt and I don’t usually do the same workouts, it can be fun sometimes to join forces and push each other to work harder (exhibit a: P90X). We did…
My Favorite Things + Upper Body Dumbbell Circuit
Now that P90X is over, I have the freedom to do whatever my heart desires for workouts. Not sure if I like this freedom yet. I spent awhile putting together an arm/back circuit and a core circuit last night, so now it’s time to share the goods! As we did the P90X workouts, I made…
The 30/30 Pushup Challenge
Workouts Wednesday: Did the following elliptical workout, which had me exhausted by the end. Yesterday: Completed my 30 Minutes to Speed It Up treadmill run. Once again, I felt exhausted after, which I didn’t even realize until I finished and began walking back to the apartment. I looked like a robot. Today: I’m about 88.2% better from…
My Fitness Christmas List
Workout Yesterday: Tried out a few yoga videos because my hips need the extra stretching love. I’ve never done yoga before, so I had no idea what I was doing. I just went on youtube and found 2 that looked legitimate: Yoga for Runners and Tara Stiles Yoga for Balance. Afterwards, I did my own little…
A Few of My Favorite Things
Today’s workout was a 16-mi run (time was 2:30). Movin’ on up in the mileage department! And my legs aren’t very thrilled, seeing as how tired they are now. ‘Twas a brisk 40 degrees during my run, and I’m actually starting to like that temperature. It requires a bit warmer clothing, but the air still feels…
