“This is the year I will be stronger, braver, kinder, and unstoppable.
This year I will be fierce.”
This year, I am trying to be more active OUT of the house instead of getting my cardio in at home and lululemon has helped me do so by creating adorable clothes that make me want to be more active, especially when going for a run on the beach! It is so nice to go for a run through the park, on the beach, or in the neighborhood to clear my mind and to make 2019 my best year yet.
Shawn has always been one to love working out and being active. Me, not so much. I would much rather watch Gossip Girl and eat donuts but lets be real, we aren’t getting any younger and day by day, it gets hard to workout.
It can be hard to stay motivated and that is why having cute clothes to wear to the gym, on a run, or a fitness class always inspires me to do more. Last year, I kept up with BBG and while doing it I learned:
1. Workout in the mornings- With a little one at home and running 3 business from home, by the end of the day, I AM EXHAUSTED, aren’t we all? I have learned that working out in the AM is so much easier than putting it off, putting it off, putting it off. Plus, it is a great way to start your day!
2. Find a reason to workout- Whether it is for you, your wedding, your vacation, whatever it is, find something that makes you WANT to workout and do it! For me, it is for myself, but also for my little guy running around everywhere! I want to be in good shape physically and mentally for him!
3. Find something that YOU love so YOU will stay with it- There are so many different classes, different gyms, workout areas, etc., you should be able to find something whether it is an at home class, run through your neighborhood, at the park, or a class at the gym, find what you love to do. The more you love something the more passionate you will be about it and the more you will WANT to workout.
4. HAVE FUN- No, seriously! HAVE FUN, isn’t that what life is all about?! If you aren’t having fun, RESORT BACK TO #3! If you are finding a class for you, you are hopefully having fun and it is hopefully motivating YOU to be your best self, loving your body and HAVING FUN, even though it might be challenging!
5. LOVE YOUR BODY and know that it is ok to still work on your body! Remind yourself every day of what you have been through, where you are now, and where you are going. I know it’s cliche, but God made you this way. Of course we all have our insecurities but when you learn to love yourself and love your body, working out will be an even greater reward.
My vest, top, and leggings are all from lululemon as well as my water bottle that I love taking on runs with me! All of these pieces fit true to size and are great to transition from winter to spring. Lululemon creates long lasting pieces that help me maintain my goals and I am so excited to start taking classes with my trainer next week.
