Gym Motivation Form The Pros!

Getting to the gym can be tough sometimes. For whatever reason or excuse there might be, some times it just does not happen. And I can sit here all day to give you advice or tips on how to go to the gym and get the best workout there is, but it may just go in one of your ears and out of the other. So I did some searching and found something. It is an article I find motivating and informing also! It is hearing from pros themselves on getting to the gym! Listen up,

Dress The Part:
"Whenever I feel like I want to skip a session, I motivate myseld with a little fitness fashion show. I actually start to try on cute fitness outfits [some faves are lululemon, onzie and Nike]. Playing dress up helps me get motivate each and every time! If it is the weekend and I am running errands. I will put on super cute workout pants, so I am already dressed and setting that mood"

Strength & Cardio Circuit. [Beginners]

Many people stray away from circuit training. Either of it being the unknown or just it being 'challenging' in a way. I really do not want you to shy away from this type of training so let me explain exactly a few things about it. 

Common grocery store mistakes with solutions.

As a health coach, I have noticed that my clients often unknowingly make mistakes at the 
grocery store that ultimately sabotage their healthy-eating routines. [If you are someone 
who does also, it is okay. Many of us do. As I did the same thing before joining this field.]
 So I am going to just put out there a handful of the most common grocery store mistakes
 along with some very easy solutions.

10 days is all it takes. [lose 3-10 pounds!]

Lets be real. Everyone wants a quick fix, a magic pill or something that will give them the body they want in the matter of minutes or even over night. Trust me when I say that I understand because many times I want the same exact thing. However things like this that are a 'quick fix' usually are not healthy.. Sucks I know, but I do have something for you that is almost a quick fix and is healthy!!! All it will take is just ten day.

22 Weeks ! [Pregnancy Bump Update]

" A mothers joy begins when new life is stirring inside, when a tiny heart beat is heard for the very first time, and a playful kick reminds her that she is never alone. "

The past week has really opened my mind up a lot on some things. Sense Raul has left to Montana and well it is just baby girl and I. [Till about March, 20th something.] Ever sense he has left also, she has been extremely active kicking and turning like crazy. And when she hears his voice, oh my does she get rolling! I have also bought her crib [which I took back down so Raul and I could put it up together.] I even picked out the fabric for her glider also. I will be making her some clothes soon also, booking some pregnancy classes and planning my baby shower (: [talk about trying to distract myself.]

I am however thankful that now her kicks are harder, they are not just flutters anymore. And that is constantly giving me reminders that I am not alone. As I lay there now at night, I think how blessed I am to have my best friend with me every single day and every moment. It helps a ton with Raul being away.

So I started putting together a high intensity workout to burn fat, tone up and get moving! A easy to follow four week program, all to do inside the comfort of my WARM home!
