Fitness Update: March:

30.3.15

I'm not too sure about how I feel about this month fitness wise. My excersize has gone up and the healthy eating has improved without a doubt. I've been having a lot more water and green tea's too which I have to say isn't something I ever imagined myself enjoying drinking! My main issue this month has been going on night outs! I'm sure any of you who follow me on instagram will agree the level of drunk selfies with friends has definitely gone up. What with the amount of alcohol in my system and the four in the morning pizza runs that my stomach is hardly the most toned it's ever been!

One thing  I have been enjoying more and more is going through excersize videos. I think it's because the person you're watching is doing it with you and it's almost as if you're doing it with a friend. This so called "warm up" nearly killed me though! I really enjoyed it and I think in the future I'll be branching out into a bit more cardio!

This month I'm proud of the fact I kept going even through I've had so many nights out and the definition I'm beginning to see in my legs, next month I want to have less nights out and cut down th alcohol!

We'll see what happens next month let me know how you're doing if you're on a fitness journey?

My Fitness Update February:

3.3.15

It's been an up and down Month fitness wise I'll be honest. I've really kept up with my excersize though, which is something I'm proud of, although I do have to admit that there was a week or so mid-month that I was really dreading excersizing. I powered through though and now I'm seeing the benefits I'm beginning to fall back in love with it again. My routine hasn't changed much at all so I won't bother retyping all of that again, you can just check out last months fitness post for that one. I have been doing much more walking around this month too though. I really enjoy walking not only for excersizing but also for the fresh air that comes with it.


On the flip side to all those benefits however, I don't think I've had a month eating this much junk in a very long time. Dominoes orders, midnight chocolate raids and chocolate spread on toast for breakfast you name it I ate it. I'd say that with the increase in excersize and increase in junk food my body has stayed the same if not very subtly improved. The bad foods I've eaten seem to have had their impact on my skin instead.

All in all like I said an up and down month. This month I'm most proud of the definition I'm beginning to see in my arms and least proud of the bad food I've been eating. My goal for next month are to eat much less rubbish. I think I'm going to set myself a goal at the end of each month for the next one but instead of just focusing on the bad I also want to mention what I'm most proud of so I have the chance to be proud of my achievements.

Fitness Update: January 2015:

4.2.15


After making it my new years resolution to get back into my fitness routine I made a real effort to pick up where I had left off with the routine I had. Since then however it has already developed and grown to a real excersize addiction and I've already been adding to it! With that in mind I thought I'd attempt to do a monthly fitness update for you throughout 2015.

So far my routine looks like this:

Tuesday: 
Arm Curls - 3 sets of 10
Side Arm Lifts - 3 sets of 10
Diagonal Curls - 1 minute
Wrist Twists - 1 minute 
Front Arm Lifts - 3 sets of 10 

Thursday: 
Squats - 3 sets of 10
Side Leg Lifts - 3 Minutes
Leg Pumps - 1 Minute
Lunges with Weights - 3 of 10

Friday: 
40 minute Yoga (here)

Saturday: 
Crunches - 3 sets of 10
Plank - 30 seconds
Situps - 3 sets 10

Sunday: 
5 minute destress Yoga video (here)

It may seem like a lot but like I said I started small and built it up. I haven't gone into much detail of the excersizes here so if you'd like to see a video demonstrating them or something like that then let me know.
