What is a workout?
"A workout is 25% perspiration and 75% determination. One part physical exertion
and three parts self-disipline.
A workout is a personal
triumph over laziness and procrastination. The mark of an organized,
goal-oreinted person who has taken charge of his or her destiny.
A workout makes you better today than you were yesterday. It strengthens the body, relaxess the mind and toughens the spirit. Work out regularly, you problems diminsh and your confidence grows.
A workout is a wise use of time and an investment in excellence. It is a way of preparing for life's challenges and proving to yourself that you have what it takes to do what is necessary.
A workout is a key that helps unlock the door to opportunity and susccess. Hidden within each of us is an extraordinary force. Physical and mental fitness are the triggers that can release it.
A workout is a form of rebirth. When you finish a good workout, you don't simply feel better. You feel better about yourself."
by George Allen

Achieve More
Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought, "man, I look good." Well I sure have. At that moment, I thought I could slack off. I thought since my workout was going smoothly I'd be able to keep the toned muscle. Well I was wrong. Even if you feel you have gotten to your goal, go further. That's where you'll surprise yourself.
Never give up on what you wanted in the first place.

Mild winter
You know what I realized?
This year, people don't have excuses not to get outside. Let's face it, everyone procrastinates during the winter when it comes to working out. Well this year, that's no excuse, this winter shouldn't even be labeled as a winter. When I think of winter, I think of cold air, snow days, and being sick. Well..wheres the snow?
It hasn't snowed in the past month, we don't have to clean off our cars in the morning frost, and we are able to walk the dog without having to bundle up. One thing's for sure is I don't like this winter. There isn't enough snow to go snow shoeing nor is there enough dry paths to go hiking on. Some towns are having road races, in february! How awesome!
Take care of your body this so called winter,
Because trust me, It'll pay off!

No Regrets
Hey Everyone,
I wanted to share a quote with you that really inspires me to succeed in everything I do.

you
didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail
away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore.
Dream. Discover." -Mark Twain"

Sick...
Even though I love working out. One time I won't workout is when I'm sick. For my 21st Birthday yesterday, I was in bed by 10:00. I still haven't experienced the bars yet! But if my body is telling me no, I should listen to it right? However, I am feeling better now!
"A positive attitude is not going to save you. What it's going to do is, everyday, between now and the day you die, whether that's a short time from now or a long time from now, that every day, you're going to actually live" - Elizabeth Edwards

Never say: what if...
Every day of our lives, we have an option. We can either do it or not. Growing up, I told myself, "what ifs." I soon realized: The only person that'll make you do anything is yourself.
So here's something I want everyone do to...
Make a bucket list..Write down everything you want to do before you die. Always have this list available to you at any time.
My list consists of: paintballing, skydiving, surfing, ride in a hot air balloon, and visit all 50 states..my list goes on and on.
Create your list, remind yourself that you can do anything.
I told myself I could do p90x..and I did!
Now its your turn...go for a winter hike! It's beautiful out today!

Exhausted? No Excuse
Exhausted? No excuse. If your like me, you're crazy busy, with meetings, classes, homework, work and hanging out with friends. Schedules get very busy. Start planning ahead telling yourself that you'll make at least 30 minutes to workout. If you want the change, you'll make it for yourself.
Working out will wake you up. Even if your going on a 10 minute run or decide to workout for 2 hours...whatever you do will help get your blood flowing, get your heart rate up and kick the tiredness out of you.
When I'm limited on time, I go for a short run, do a workout video, or even browse YouTube to see what workouts I want to do. YouTube is a great source of some incredible workouts.

Never give up on something that'll change you for the better
Working out is the key to my success. It has changed my way of thinking, learning and the respect I have for other people. Someone once told me, I workout too much. After thinking about it, I thought to myself, people enjoy drinking, smoking, hanging out with friends, tanning, snowboarding... my high is working out. The intensity of a workout allows me to distress myself. It's the way of life.
How I got motivation? Summer 2011, I wanted to do something I've never done before, I did p90x. One of the most intense workouts. My friends thought I couldn't do it, had doubts I would be able to last the 90 days but in fact I lasted 110 days. I would come home everyday from work around 4:00, go for a run barefoot on the beach (best thing ever) , do my 1 hour p90x workout. After one week of doing p90x, I got addicted, I couldn't stop working out, I saw incredible results. I found my motivation was based off of the change I wanted to make for myself. I thought to myself, if I wasn't happy with myself I could change it, so I did...and you can too :)
