I know I posted awhile about finding my body, and diet and exercise-which I did and ended up winning one of the challenges, But its time to take the next step.
So we signed our life away and joined a gym. A gym that has daycare! So I can go workout in peace... I don't have to worry about nap time ending or spending the whole nap time working out instead of cleaning or work on homework, or napping myself.. And did you notice I said "WE" yep T joined too. So this time I have him on board. So we are working hard on eating better and keeping each other accountable. He worked out with a partner.. And I have a trainer. She keeps me working hard! We have been working on strength training for my whole body right now. Then on days I'm not w/ her I normally do cardio and a few classes. So far I have worked out almost everyday! I track my calories (for the first time really ever!) and she can see what I've eatten... So I have to make good choices! Its nice being able to go to the gym. Gets me out of my head and I feel great afterwards (Sore, but good) Plus I enjoy watching T feel better about working out. And I love example we are setting for Z. We are not just trying to loose weight, but get into shape and have a healthier lifestyle.
I am still doing some of the beach body stuff.. like Shakology, which I love!! And the protein drink after I work out is theirs too. On days I don't do strength I try to do ab ripper (part of p90x) if I have the energy. So now I fit (at least) an hour of work out in my already busy crazy days! Its not always easy to find an hour (not counting the drive time of 1/2 there and 1/2 back) but so far I've done it-and its worth it. I feel refreshed after working out. I will for sure be keeping track on my progress and any tips I learn!
Like this tip:
When working out on a treadmill you should always have the incline at at least 1.0 b/c treadmills are natural pointed down and if you have it on anythign below 1, you'll hurt your knees.
