I started a new leg workout again today. It’s really not THAT different than the recent leg workouts I’ve been doing, but it’s a lot quicker and more intense. I got the workout I did today from Bodybuilding.com. (You can find the workout I did here today under their workouts section) Bodybuilding is my favorite [...]

Another heavy leg day! I had to skip working out yesterday and did legs today instead. I plan on doing some cardio tomorrow since everything got twisted around this weekend. My legs are way too tired now to have even attempted a run at doing some cardio today too.
My husband picked up the squat rack [...]

Today was heavy leg day followed up with a shoulder workout. I’ve decided that I’m going to start a new workout split next week, but I haven’t quite figured out exactly what yet. I’ll work on it tomorrow and Monday. I think I’ll probably keep the Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday split for strength training but I’m gonna switch [...]

Happy Valentine’s Day! <3 I did a heavy leg workout and a shoulder workout yesterday and then today I did a steady state cardio workout. I don’t do cardio on leg day – it gets to be too much for my legs, especially when I’m lifting heavy like I have been lately. So…I’m completely kosher [...]

This leg and shoulders workout took a lot outta me today! I did heavy legs again this week and I followed that up with shoulders. I was going to do weighted crunches afterwards but my arms (more specifically my shoulders) were too tired. I felt I wasn’t performing them properly because I wasn’t strong enough [...]

Today was leg day. For my last leg workout I used a lighter weight and did higher reps, but today I decided to start going heavy and I’m so glad I did! I was lifting far more than I thought I could and it makes me wish I had started lifting heavy a long time [...]

On a happy note, I’m so glad the Vikes won their playoff game today! But…wanna know what’s sad? My hamstrings were STILL hurting from the HIIT workout I did the other day. As a result, I decided to still do legs today but I used a light amount of weight and did a higher number [...]

It’s hump day, woo! Today was another full body workout for me. I was actually able to increase the weight on a couple of the exercises so that’s always a good thing – lets me know I’m getting stronger.
Earlier today I posted an About Me kind of post so you could get the chance to [...]

Today marks my first day of working out since I got my hip tattoo. I kind of jumbled around a little bit to see what I could do without causing myself too much pain.
Here’s the workout I did:
Walk @ 4 MPH for 10 minutes
Flat Bench Press
