I’m new to the blogging world. After stumbling upon several blogs through Pinterest fitness boards I found myself inspired to create one of my own. I have made a huge change in my life- to no longer be content with laziness, no longer letting myself get away with benging, to stay off the couch and stay active. I am no longer wishing for that dream beach body, I’m making it happen! I don’t expect results now, it will take time and dedication. But I’m in for the long haul!
So far for the last three weeks I’ve been staying active 6 days of the week. I do various exercises from straight up running my frustrations (boys, boys, and more boys) out on the treadmill to Zumba and weight lifting.
I am 24 years old. A former cheerleader of 9 years which has helped me a lot with the weight training room> look out meatheads that bench press is MINE!!! I am not doing this for a guy. Who are we kidding? Guys will take anything! I believe Julia Roberts put it best in Eat Pray Love, “Let me ask you a question? In all the years you’ve undressed infront of a gentleman has he asked you to leave? Has he ever walked out and left? No… Because he doesnt care, he’s in the room with a naked girl. He’s won the lottery.” This is all my desire to become healthier. Five years ago I was very athletic, very fit and very healthy and I felt great! I rarely had a bad day! And shopping was ALWAYS fun. Things have changed over the years- mainly my habits. But no more. It’s hit the road jack! Literally!
Day 1 of my new fitness regime: 3 miles on the treadmill with 1/2 mile cool down. 20 minutes toning- squats, goalies, pushups off my yoga ball, bench press and other various arm weight exercises.
