Intro

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!
