Traveling This Week

This week I am traveling for business and we are staying at the Marriott Century Center.  Usually when I travel I either skip out on workouts or when we are in the Caribbean we do things like snorkel, walk on the beach or things like that. 

But with my February Fitness challenge, where I promised myself I would exercise every day, I knew I could not mess up. So Thursday after we flew in and had lunch, I went to the hotel fitness center.  You’ll see below the hotel workouts I did through today.

Home Gym Workouts This Week

What a great week of workouts! It’s so nice to get back to our home gym after traveling for a while even though I’ll be heading out again at the end of the week on a business trip.

I have every intention to exercise while I am gone.  Whether it be in the hotel room or hotel gym, I am going to do something.  Too bad the pool is outdoors (in Atlanta). This conference I go to is constant go go go but I’m going to take time for myself and get it done! [Read more...]

 

A Real Quick Office Workout

Mike is back with a great chair workout video.  This would definitely make a great office workout when you are short on time.  The moves are not easy but  it looks like a nice quick workout.

What did you think of that workout! Crazy good…

A lot of my work at home friends have an exercise ball as their chair so it would work just as well, I think.

Thanks Mike!

Make it a great day,

 

5 Exercises for One of the Best Apple Bottom Workouts

Here is another guest article from Mike D with five exercises, using virtually no equipment, to help get you an apple bottom.  To be honest, I had to look up  the term apple bottom. I had heard the term in a song before but never really knew what it was.

So in case you are wondering the same thing, wikipedia says, “The term “Apple Bottom Jeans” refers to a woman whose curvaceous figure is elegantly revealed by her tight-fitting jeans, resembling the shape of an apple”.  So there you have it…now it’s time to go workout!

Enjoy!

No Excuses

This week, the first week of 2012 was interesting.  I have been sick since New Year’s Eve so it the week wasn’t too exciting. This post will be short and sweet but I did want to say that I am proud of myself.

If you recall I posted my goals for 2012 and two of them were to keep a food journal AND follow the mantra fitness every day.  Happy to report that I did just that.  Although I was sick, I did very VERY light moves but I did them.
