Response To a Workout-my change, your change

Working out for fitness and seeing the body’s response can be fast or slow.  This is the tea- WE ARE ALL DIFFERENT. Knowing that we are different is to say there will be different responses.  The worst thing is to compare your body’s response to another.  I learned this and had to refocus on ME.Continue reading “Response To a Workout-my change, your change”

Small Changes and Then

Do you know the value of small changes? I am aware there are people that really want to make a physical change and begin their fitness journey but will not because of easy excuses: 1. I don’t have time or my time is limited – I know but just start anywhere, 5 minutes of aContinue reading “Small Changes and Then”

Change Isn’t Always Instant….Unless

That’s right, change isn’t instant.  On my fitness journey I hear this, “what are you doing?  How long do you workout? What time do you get up to workout? How many days do you workout? The most common conversation is I need to join you, I think we can do it together don’t you.  OfContinue reading “Change Isn’t Always Instant….Unless”

Overworking The Muscles…is it possible?

Follow Your Strength

Follow your strength is a nice and polite way of saying don’t under lift but don’t over lift. I recently listened to two guys brag about their weight lifting . One  said I may be able to lift that in a few days.   They had stated their lifting weight one with bulging arms (Continue reading “Follow Your Strength”

The App or The Containers

I know you are wondering what the heck? An app or containers, what does it all mean.  On my fitness journey I am really focused on my intake, with any fitness journey  change is NOT made by exercise alone. NUTRITION has a major role and with my years of eating disorder I must always beContinue reading “The App or The Containers”

STOP Pretending

Now what is this? Stop pretending, well yes I once pretended so many times and let me share this is not with an imaginary friend, it was all about me. I’d gain weight and I would go from mirror to see which mirror exhibited the best looking body I wanted, mind you still over weightContinue reading “STOP Pretending”

Isn’t It Time

This is exactly what I once had to ask myself.  Isn’t it time I take control of my excuses of fitness.  I had excuses greater than a thousand as to why I couldn’t workout and when I did workout I had excuses as to why I couldn’t perform a specific workout. Okay I’m a FAN,Continue reading “Isn’t It Time”
