Be Healthy

If you're anything like me you need a plan to get most things done.  Creating a fitness routine can seem daunting because you're new to it and you want results, but where do you start?  I've put together a general full body workout that is sure to get you results.  It is called....

My No Excuses Just Results Workout

Warm-Up:  Do each for a minute.

High Knees

Run in Place

Jumping Jacks

or 

Run 1 mile

Main Workout:  Do Each Circuit 2-3 times before moving to the next 

Circuit One:

20 Squats (weighted if advanced)

15 Squat Jumps

10 burpees

15 Leg Lifts

10 Calf Raises

Core Work: Do each move for a minute

Now this is just for starters, you can always customize your workout to fit your wants and needs.  I hope this helps someone who has been thinking of starting a workout plan.  Remember that in order to get results you must have consistency.  Don't get discouraged when you don't get what you expected, be encouraged and motivated to try harder. 

Happenings This Weekend #2

I hope that everyone is having a wonderful Monday morning.  I also hope that everyone had an exquisite weekend.  This past weekend for me was very busy.  I had way too much going on and I was able to do everything but relax.  

This weekend was my last chance to actually indulge in unhealthy eating and overeating since I do have to prepare myself for a huge opportunity that is coming my way (I'll explain later).  I also attended a birthday party and I went out to dinner with some friends.  After the birthday party we went out to another party and it just went on from there.   Majority of my weekend was actually spent in the gym.  I'm trying to tone up and lose a little bit of pudge around my midsection.  This week will not be the happiest for me but the results will at least be rewarding.  I'll definitely fill in the details a little later.  Well, that seems to be about it, ttyl.    

Side note:  working out while hung over is the opposite of fun, I repeat it is the exact opposite of fun.  In fact, that is why my stats were so terrible.  1.24 miles in 20 minutes...really?  It was pitiful.
