Feel the Burn: Treadmill HIIT Workout

3/6/15


With revamping my life comes revamping my body.  I have been addicted to the gym lately. So addicted.  I love the way the gym makes me feel.  Theres something about the spending an hour or two completely alone, in the zone, blasting music that makes me feel like a professional twerker (ha!).  
When getting back into a workout routine I try to use my time wisely.  By working in HIIT workouts (high intensity interval training) into my routine I can burn optimal calories in a short amount of time without busting my knee or pulling a muscle I have never herd of.   
I do HIIT workouts on any cardio machine: the treadmill, stair master, elliptical, or cross trainer! 
Put on your favorite play list, watch an episode of your favorite show, and kill it!

just a few fitness tips!

2/27/15


I am proud to say that I have stepped up my fitness game and have been consistently working on eating healthier.  It's a daily struggle.  I have found that once I get into a routine that it is much easier to stay on track.  I have learned that tweking small actions increases the chances on exceeding goals.  Small changes like drinking more water, ordering less food than you think you need, and doing that extra workout may seem obvious but seem to enhance progress.
My goal is not to be skinny or hit a certain weight, it's to be the best version of myself.

Some things that work for me:
1. Constantly drink water (plain, sparkling, flavored)
2. Take photos of your progress (you look at yourself everyday, it's hard to see changes, document it for yourself)
3. Set achieveable goals (rigorous goals can be motavating but can also lead to stress)
4. Track meals (you really have no idea how bad some foods are)
5. Treat the gym as a form of therapy (don't dread the idea of a workout, embrace it)
