Hi there! So I’m a 23 year old military wife who is very
passionate about working out and being active. I’ve been looking for a new
hobby, so I thought why not make a fitness blog! It’s what I know and it’s what
I love, so I’m going to share my passion with you.
About Me
Like I said I’m 23 and I’m “married to the military” (lol
that saying is so true!). My husband is a Marine officer, making it hard to find a steady
job while we’re living in places for only a short amount of time. Which is why
I find myself working out a lot. Anyways, I graduated college a year ago, where
I was a division 1 soccer player. Soccer has always been the number one thing
in my life, so now that it’s over I’ve had to learn how to 1. workout on my own, without anyone telling me what to do, and 2. Do workouts to stay toned and fit,
rather then big and fast (I was never really able to get that “big” but you
know what I mean). Currently I
coach two girl's soccer teams and just became a certified personal trainer. I hope to someday in the future run my own fitness class- possible on the beach if I’m living
somewhere that has a beach.
About My blog
In this blog I plan to share the workouts I do everyday, and
to help motivate you to get active and workout daily too. The thing about my
workouts is that they are challenging, but fairly short. They are mostly done
at home, with limited equipment. I like to focus on body weight exercises to
prevent from bulking up. Although people say it’s impossible for women to get
“bulky”, through experience I know it’s totally possible, and that’s what we
are trying to avoid. This is about getting toned, fit, healthy and hot!
My workouts are usually at most 30-45 minutes. They are
usually alternated day by day between cardio and strength. Pretty much everyday
is different and depends on my mood. Some days you wake up and don’t feel like
working out and pushing yourself, so on those days I do something easy. I like
to mix in some Yoga too. It really gives you energy and makes you feel centered
and focused.
I will talk about nutrition, I love learning about nutrition
and trying new things. Although I will admit I am not a “health freak”. I eat
pretty healthy most of the time, but I love ice cream and brownies, cake,
cookies, pizza and cream cheese… so sometimes I eat them! I believe it’s all about
moderation and balance. So I will share recipes and new things that I learn
about food along the way.
Finally I will share motivational quotes, cool athletic
clothes, new athletic gear gadgets and shoes that I find to be worth it and
awesome. Sometimes all it takes to get motivated to workout is a new pair of
running shoes and a stylish new workout outfit!
I hope you enjoy my blog! I’m very excited about this!! Woooohooo here we go, LETS GET FIT!
