B∅RED w/ Excercis∃? Mix It upΛ

Exercise is necessary for a healthy mind and body. You know what it feels like to get BORED! Falling into the same routine of exercise not only bores you mentally it also stops you from making any fitness/weight loss achievements.

Here are some tips that will help you stay out of the exercise rut.

1. Mix up your routine: rotate between different types of cardio, like swimming, dancing, rock climbing, cycling. You don't have to always stick to the treadmill or elliptical. Add some intervals or hills into your routine. Not only will you challenge yourself, you will also stay engaged.

2. Join a team. Playing a sport like volleyball, basketball, tennis, soccer, lacrosse, etc..will give you an awesome workout, fun interaction and good competitive drive.

 

3. Extend the invitation. Invite a friend to workout with you. Having the company will allow you to mix up the routine while you chat away during the workout.

 

4. Try a new class. Search your local gym and community centers for classes that will mix up your routine. Give a yoga, Pilate's, kickboxing, circuit training, spin, or dance class a try. It will be a nice break from your usual routine.

 

5. Take a chill pill. Remember to give yourself time to rest and recover. If you push to hard, you will burn yourself out and not have the motivation and drive. This can come across as boredom. 9 times out of 10, you just need to take a day or two off to recover from the stress. Give it a try.

 

Where have I Been ♥

Hey Guys!

Wow it has been over a month since I have posted anything?! You know when life wants to kick up the notches it defiantly does. I have been pretty consumed with charities and events these past few weeks, and I have sadly neglected my love for sharing information.

Check out those ABS!!!

I wanted to update you all on what has happened:

I have reached my Goal Weight! Yay!!...great

news. I started my weight loss journey over a year and a half ago weighing a hefty 250lbs on my 5'8 frame. I am currently down 75 lbs weighing 175lbs.

I feel lighter, younger, and rejuvenated. This was a hard road to travel but it was well worth it. I will go in more depth as to what worked and didn't work for me. Just let me know in the comments if you would be interested in hearing My details.

I also got a gym membership, since I have reached my goals, I wanted to focus on more toning with weight training. I have a small gym in my house, but I have out-grown all of my equipment.

Zumba for Autism was a Hit! We almost raised 3,000 dollars for a great cause. I want to thank everyone that took the time to support, donated and attend this marvelous event. I am defiantly looking forward to organizing the next one.

Work is still the same, but I am focusing my energy on the next chapter of my life. I need to just take the leap of faith and dedicate my life to all things fitness and health related. I have given myself a deadline of 12 months. This way I can align all the necessary pieces and transition as smoothly into my 'calling'

This post is short. But I wanted to let you all know that I was thinking about you and I will have more information coming up soon. xoxo

PS. I have a new found obsession with Under Armour...great stuff just wish it wasn't so expensive.

Love and Peace
