This Week Recap Remix of the Run/Workout, Get It Girl Plan 4/11/14

Hey Readers, today is Friday, and want to update each of you of the run/workout week went this week. I went pretty, good I stuck to the plan of my goals this week, accept today Friday I was going to, do circuit  training, but my running group we did 6 miles this morning more of a mild run, and then the next group of my running crew came and we all hugged and talk to where I ran out of time to hit the gym to get home on time by 6:30am. The recap is I did add Beta Alanine and Creatine to my pre-workout drink and had a better push of weights. I did add a extra day this week which is not on my plan posted last week. I add 3 miles on Thursday. I decide to keep up a mileage of 25-30 miles per week. During my half training, I did a good mileage, so I decided to stick with that plan. One of the reasons also Hey, I love to run. This weekend I will do a run as plan hills, 6- 7 miles. This week I am trying out this detox called Sassy Water for 7 days I am on my 4th day, I will share about the results next week. I am getting good results with my body, seeing some leanness, and muscle definition. I would say to each of you to get a plan and stick with a workout plan that works for you. Every workout is not for everyone, the one that I have  is good and doable, please if you have any questions about the plan, you can do it to. One thing about me I go to the gym, I am not good with video tapes and need the atmosphere, plus it is my time by myself from the family focus on my health. Most mommys I believe my opinion need sometime to do something for themselves physically, who says that you have to look like a mom, and forget to keep the body tight. I truly think one will feel better about themselves. Hang in there everyone, stay focus!

The ReCap of a Run/Workout Week!: Remix of The Get it Girl 4/4/14

Hi everyone, well it is the first of the month of April and I am off to a good start. The weather has held up so I was able to run outdoors three times this week and do 15miles. My goal per week is 20 to 25 miles. So this weekend if the weather hold I will do my long run Saturday or Sunday. My in the gym mode "Get it Girl" workout was awesome and I have added more weight during my hour of power class, squatting more heavier very proud of that. I will be adding some supplements to my regiment, and will discuss those  soon. At this time I only use pre-workout, pre-natal vitamin and MSM for my joints which is works fine for running. Oh,  I do magnesium and biotin as well magnesium for muscles and biotin for hair. The biotin I do not use daily because I breakout in ache I use it for my hair especially after each wash I double up. I have signed for two more races this month. Reason well the prices tend to go up and trying to save money on them to fit the budget. I do love racing however, as a Mommy on a budget, and a Budgetnesta, love fun but want others to know that yes, you can race and not cost you. A part of racing and running that it is one of the low cost hobbies a person can have. All you need is a good pair of running shoes which you should go to a specialty running store to get fitted very important for your feet. Another is please you do not need all of the gadgets that are out there to run. I have learned that, for instance, I track my miles for free with a running app on my android. I so wanted the Garmin or the Tom Tom, but because it is a costly item, I have put that on the backburner. My run app does just fine, and heck I pay a cell phone bill use the free applications. I thought I needed the compression socks immediately, because being new my running group talk about them how great they are then they(not me) fell off running during the cold months. I am a true believer that you should be consistent in taking care of your body so I had  to re-think through what is it for exactly, not saying I may buy them in the future, but I have learned after my long runs, to do a recovery run the next day and drink protein shakes. Oh, don't forget the awesome clothes, well that is lovely which of course love the workout gear, I am at the gym five days a week at 4 or 5 am plus run 4 days a week so this is a budget item as well. Walmart, Ross, Kohls, Marshalls have great things and for the low. I do get really cute for my race for pictures so that is my splurge but cheap. I have found name brand upscale items at Ross for $14 and $10 bucks!! can't bet that. I want people to know don't think this hobby is expense it is not but people can make it that way. My goal also includes, run a Full Marathon in 2015, and get my speed up so that I can join the Track Club Competitive Team in my age group. Hope you enjoyed this ReCap/Remix... Stay inspired
