The Triathlon: First combo 

I asked my husband today how he thought I should approach my training for the triathlon. Should I just start combining running and cycling? He said he read my post about feeling the nervous butterflies and yes that I should start there because water is my element so the run and cycling is what I… Continue reading The Triathlon: First combo

Day 7 

   I started a 21-Day Fix Extreme workout and I’m so proud of myself because I completed the first 7 days!  One of our neighbors and my mommy friend is the Coach for this group and I’m so thankful that she invited me to join. The program is part of Shakeology but for now I’m… Continue reading Day 7

When downward dog seems like the best alternative 

   I’ve started to do Yoga. I try to go twice a week, on Mondays and Thursdays, usually the 6am class. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn’t. What I like though is I’ve gotten to that point in the workout mentality where when I don’t get to go, I miss it. My family was… Continue reading When downward dog seems like the best alternative

The House Wife Workout

I was feeling rather ballsy yesterday. It was my day off (I work part time) and that meant it was a full day with our daughter. By 11am I had already picked up around the house, done a load of laundry, played and fed our daughter her breakfast, made my husband breakfast, and vacuumed the… Continue reading The House Wife Workout

Another Victory!

This morning I got another great workout in. My husband suggested that we go workout together, so after he took Biggie for his walk, we put Celeste in her stroller and then headed to a nearby park. While I started my run, my husband took the baby to a spot in the park and started on his… Continue reading Another Victory!

I want my sexy back too!

A few days ago I read the post Operation banging body, day effing 1 written by Ness at One Thousand Single Days, which you can find at this link http://onethousandsingledays.com/2012/08/13/operation-banging-body-day-effing-1/#more-570 Since then I’ve kept thinking about Ness’s words and the challenge she’s made to herself, so much so that I went back and re-read her post,… Continue reading I want my sexy back too!

Trying Not To Be “Bullyfied” (In the Bulldog sense)

For the sake of today’s post, the term “bullyfied” (which my husband and I coined) will mean: Trying not to maintain laziness. Ever since becoming a new mommy, getting a decent workout has become something of a challenge. As it was, before I became a mom working out was something of a love-hate relationship for me.… Continue reading Trying Not To Be “Bullyfied” (In the Bulldog sense)

Staying Fit Sure Isn’t What It Use To Be

I love being in my 30’s but dang it I sure do miss how easy it was to workout and stay fit in my 20’s. Nowadays it seems like any little bad thing I eat just sits and builds up in the most inappropriate little spots if I don’t work out, immediately. I shouldn’t complain so… Continue reading Staying Fit Sure Isn’t What It Use To Be

Coffee? No thank you, I’m a morning person…

You know those kind of days where you wake up and you just feel delicious and energetic and like you could do anything? Well that’s the kind of morning I’m having. I feel like I could be bouncing off the walls right now, I have so much energy it’s ridiculous! I’m just not quite sure… Continue reading Coffee? No thank you, I’m a morning person…
