New Week!New Workout! New Run Week! Yup Last Do This!!

My First Time At the Sunday Morning Breakfast Club Crew!!
You are Healthy!
Hey Readers, Update since Wednesday, that I have completed my goal to run a at 25-30 miles per week. Well I did it!! 27 miles this past week, and workout went great. To plan for this week, you must reset, your plan for this week to accomplish whatever you are trying to do. I believe that running and workout out is a weekly plan to stay determined to stick with it. Plus, food for the week and just plan life in general. At times to stay motivated I visited websites to find out more I should do to be better at running and workout. It is just like when you set out for a career, you have to study, and plan for that career. Once you obtain that goal, you work the job, and even invest in getting better with additional course work etc. The same goes for the workout, I love to go to my group class, it is so inspiring it keeps me coming and motivated, even when I am tired because my instructor and classmates keep each other in the loop to stay motivated. My runs, oh awesome I do several group runs a week and weekly one alone. But this Sunday I went to a awesome group run this morning and we had a ball. One area that is a must is eating, if you do not plan to eat well for the week and that is even when you go to work because I find that the must challenging pack a lunch and eat it. Make sure you add fruit and tons of water 64oz minimum. One can even sabotage yourself if you do not plan the food and drinks especially if you are losing weight. Everyone will not be your supporter, sometimes the famous line is" Don't Get To Skinny" ! yuck, If you are working out you will be fit not skinny. Find people that share the same passion for your fit lifestyle. My runningmate and fitnessmate we always send a text to encourage each other. Also, hey read my blog I will always encourage you and say Get It ! You can Do it!!..

Mid Week Workout Review: Stay Strong Run/ Workout ! Get it Girl

Hey readers, well I am getting the hang still of posting, I had posted on Monday, but I guess it did not up date or something, I will get better. It is the mid-week and my workout has been great and consistent. I am testing out a detox this week so I will updated everyone next week how it went and what the results are .I added this because it is good to do a spring cleaning of the body. I use to get colonics  all time but got away from it since  I moved from my hometown. As of Monday I have completed 8 full months of non-stop workouts YEAH!, have not stop. Have I seen difference? Yes, I am much toner, and stronger. I love it shape has changed with less looseness. I think is the combination for running also. I will state, I did not have a weight loss goal but a few pounds and much need toning, because that is so sexy to me. Also a tight body keeps you looking good and youthful no matter the age. But as you age it is important to keep it tight. Far as running my lovely best friend, well it is on track, no miss group runs and have gotten on the schedule of long runs on the weekends by myself.. I decided to try to keep 25-30 miles per week run schedule. This also help with keeping my caloric count at 3500 per week. Have a few races scheduled coming up before it gets to hot outside. One other thing I am admin of a workout group online, so look out!. Getting ready for the Summer, it will be 2 piece swimsuit this year, and leaning down for a fabulous dress to go to a party celebrating a running mate weight loss accomplishment in May...

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

Accountability Partners For runs or Workouts: Love them or Leave them!

Today is January 4,2014
Already, 4 days into the new year. As it is January the beginning and the weather is certainly cold. I do not do new year resolutions because I feel they must be things that are short and obtainable an that you can tie into your daily hustle and bustle lives. I like to incorporate goals because it become habit forming and part of the imprint of your life. For instance, people all of a sudden get accountability partners to share a fitness goal. However, it can turn to a bust if you both have not made a true commitment to self. That means sit down with yourself and say" Why are you doing what you are doing". Then write it down. for yourself. Because once that person stops base off of life circumstances out of their control or really did not make a true dedication to self. You will fall off the commitment. Make sure if you have a accountability partner and groups please spot the Debbie Downers" One sided encouragement, you got to push them, call them to remind them of the workouts or runs etc. That's not accountability partner that is a negative drainer, and you will fall prey to it. Oh' let me not forget the one that if they are not orchestrating the plan to workout or run they find a way to discourage the other one. Also, take time to observe the person you have selected to be a accountability partner what is their workout habits previously, do they stop and start all the time?. Take the time to really know who they are if you select them as a partner.
