Back to the Gym!

After 8 months of no gym, I'm finally headed back to get the body I want. I joined the local fitness club yesterday and I'm more than ready to get my body back! I'm doing well so far... I had a peanut butter banana smoothie for breakfast this morning and I'm already in my gym clothes.

I'm starting off like a beginner again for two reasons: I'm out of shape, and I have an erratic heart rate. Sometimes my heart rate and my breathing don't sync up during exercise and I get a little fuzzy. So I'm going to take it slow.

There are two main workouts I'm focusing on today. One is a month long challenge you can find on my Pinterest Fitness board called Mad Abs March. This is day 1 for me!

The second I'm doing is focusing on certain body parts on certain days. My workout days will be Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. On Fridays I'll focus on legs and cardio. Though cardio will always be my warm up, it's my primary on Fridays. You can see how I'm getting started here.

I will not be posting crazy pictures of myself. You guys don't wanna see that, nor do I want you all saying "well you should be doing this" or "you're doing it wrong" or my personal non-favorite "you don't need to work out!" Yes I do! I have my future and the future of my family to think of. This isn't just for me.


Love as always,
Courtney
