Be honest with yourself..

It's time to be honest with myself and STOP making excuses. This is the heaviest that I've been in 3 years. This is the most unfit i have ever felt in awhile. It's time to kick my own butt (which is going to be hard) and get back into training regularly again!

I've gone from training 4-5 times a week to 3 days a week, to NONE or once a week. Life outside of the gym can be always changing and challenging. When your on a fit journey, you come across "speed bumps". These "speed bumps" knock you down and you can either fall or get back up and keep going. There have been plenty of times where I've just kept going. But for the past 3-4 months i feel like, i fell off and i'm struggling to get back on track because of work, studying, being a new wife, etc.

I've been looking at older photos of myself from last year and the beginning of the year. Old photos can either motivate you to PUSH HARDER because your reminded of how good you felt when you looked after yourself! OR it can motivate you to push harder because you never want to go back there! Which ever it is for you, use that motivation to drive harder and stay on track!

I told my Instagram followers i was going to post my workout i did today. So here it is...

I started off with a 10 minute warm up on the treadmill, followed by some dynamic stretches. Then into the 1st part of my workout which was 200ft on the Jacobs Ladder, 400m Row & 400m Run for 2 Rounds. Minimal rest. Then i went onto the 2nd part of my workout which was 21 Deadlifts, 21 Kettlebell Swings, 21 Hang Cleans, 15 Deadlifts, 15 Kettlebell Swings, 15 Hang Cleans, 9 Deadlifts, 9 Kettlebell Swings, 9 Hang Cleans. NO REST in between or very minimal rest! I cooled down on the bike for about 10 minutes and stretched. I felt like dying after this workout and realized how unfit I've become. But the important thing is, i trained! And i felt AMAZING after i left the gym! :)

My blog is going to be a place of healing, honesty, learning & motivation. I hope to at least inspire or motivate one person. :) I'm ready to get back on track! And feel AWESOME again!
