Sunday Evening Inspiration!

Try it everyday for a week, no matter what! See how you feel. Report back! X

Set your alarm. Get up bright and early. Pull on a baggy top and jogging bottoms. Go outside, no matter what the weather. Walk for ten minutes. Skip for five. Jog for five minutes. Then turn around and walk back. Nice and early with no one around. Then get back home again. Cut yourself some fruit. Apples, oranges, magoes. All in. add a little yoghurt for a healthy start to the day. Go and pour yourself some water. Fresh water ice cold. Refreshing. Go to the bathroom. Turn on the shower. Wash your hair with nice smelling shampoo and matching conditioner. Wash yourself with body lotion. Come out of the shower. Dry yourself all over. Slather yourself in body butter. You smell nice, clean, innocent, pure. Put something nice on. A pair of jeans, a top. Your favourite bra and pants. Towel dry your hair, leaving it damp to try naturally. All natural. Go to the mirror. Look at what you see. Don’t like it? Pick out three things that your love. Your beautiful eyes, your shiny hair, your tinted cheeks. Go downstairs, ignore the kitchen. You’ve already had breakfast. Get a glass of water. Paint your nails. Read a book. Go for a walk. Call your friends. Spend some time with your family. Spend some time outside. You know this will be a beautiful day. The sun might not be shining, but you are. This day will be perfect. This day will be the most perfect day you’ve had so far. No binging, no purging, no cutting, no hating. Only loving and laughing and living. You can do this. I believe in you. You are beautiful.

Buns and Thighs....just incase snowboarding didnt kill them already!!

So, starting this whole thing with no internet access didn't really work out for me! And I got pretty slack with my Ab workouts coz I got a bit bored with it! Also, a few days at the snow was an eating write off! Anyway, back onto the wagon now with my first real contribution to the daily workout!

Enjoy!!!!

Stop the Granny arms!

Todays workout is focusing on the arms! (Mainly because my butt is too sore from the day befores workout plus run!)

Each exercise is for ten reps, and repeat the circuit twice. You just need two containers that weigh the same (cans, milk, detergent) and one heavier object (3L milk, Nursing book that I never used =))

- Bicep curls (slower if only light weights)
- Tricep dips
- Lateral raises (with weights)
- Plank circuit (start elbows, one side up to hand, next side, then down each side and over again, one circle is one rep)
- Tricep Extensions (larger weight, holding behind the head and elbows pointing up, lift up moving only arms not elbows)
