Winter Home + Gym Cardio Workout + Giveaway

We all know it’s that time of year where it seems like every weekend (and sometimes weekday) we are eating Christmas cookies,  some sort of casserole, or those darn Starbucks holiday drinks.  On top of that we are trying to figure out a new routine with the cold temperatures and the sun going down at 5:00PM. On top of this, the last thing you want to do is to gain a few pounds.   Anyone else have the struggle of finding the time to fit in a workout in this cold weather and busy schedule?  I know I do.

6 Minute Core Sculpting Workout

Are you the person who exercises regularly but can’t get a trim waistline? I may have be able to help you with that.

I typically do three 30-40 minutes of cardio focused workouts each week.  Cardio is great, but it will not tone or sculpt your muscle.  I have already shown you in my 15 Minute  HIIT workout how I tone and sculpt my body, but that workout is only meant to be done 1-3 times per week.  What can I do the other days so I do not neglect my core muscles?  It is simple, add-on a 5 minute core workout at the end of your workouts.  Continue reading “6 Minute Core Sculpting Workout” →

My 1 Hour Playlist

My 1 Hour Playlist

I have been thinking this past week on what I should write about next.  I never want any of my posts to seem forced, so I patiently waited until it was clear on what I should write about. The clarity came this morning during worship time at church.  We were all reminded that singing and praising God should be more of an outpour of what is coming from our soul than just feeding the words in our minds.  I bet we all can admit that at times we will sing a song and not truly reflect on the lyrics.  I was challenged to use those lyrics to praise and worship to where it stirs up my soul. That is when I knew what I wanted to write about.  I have decided that my next couple of posts are going to be fitness related due to a high demand of requests on my Instagram.   I am already working on my favorite fitness routine so I thought why not mix fitness and faith together.  Continue reading “My 1 Hour Playlist” →
