after 2.5 hours in the gym today… I think so!

Its never too late.

I hit the gym pretty hard yesterday and I’m sore in places I’ve yet to even feel sore before, that is a good thing! I’m planning on heading that way again today, but i’m going to get some food in my system first.

I cant even begin to explain how great it feels to finally be motivated again.

Its never too late to pick back up and keep going, its only too late if you never do it.

Busting it!

I worked a little over 2 hours today in the gym.

Cardio and weight lifting.

I have been every day this week and I have been doing pretty good on eatting well too!

I’m super proud of myself, and I feel great… a little sore, but great!

I hate that I slacked off for so long, but now I feel like I’ve got a pretty good routine going. FINALLY.

Today

I’m gonna Run

I’m gonna Sweat

I’m gonna lift

I’m gonna squat

I’m gonna feel Great

I’m gonna love myself!

Neither am I doing this to conform to society’s ideals of beauty, so spare me your condescending lecture about body acceptance. Just because I’m trying to change my body (for the better, mind you) doesn’t mean I hate it. It’s actually quite the opposite, so bugger off. :)

God, I love this so much. One of the best messages on tumblr!

If you don’t hate being fat then why/how would you change lol

Because of health? I don’t understand why that’s such a hard concept for people! :P Health should always be your priority. You have only one body in life; take care of it.

real productive stuff

I didnt go to my pointless class this morning….

I did however start a load of laundry, made some coffee to drink, and got some yogurt to eat for breakfast.

Then I will be heading to the gym.

Tell me about it!

Tell me about it!

Ever heard the saying “abs are made in the kitchen”?
Well it’s true! While training your abs WILL build the muscle… you will NOT be able to see them if you have a layer of fat over the top! In order to “get abs”, you must lower your overall body fat! Another common refrain is “70% diet, 30% training”… I’d go a step further and say “80% diet, 20% training”. Most people don’t realize just how important proper nutrition is. While calories in versus calories out will determine weight loss or gain… the TYPE of weight lost or gained is determined by what you’re eating! For example: If you are eating in a caloric deficit and hardly eating any protein, it’s likely that the majority of weight you’re losing is coming from muscle. Same goes for when you are eating in a caloric surplus… if you’re eating clean with plenty of protein, it’s likely muscle.. whereas if you were eating mainly junk food, it’s more likely to be fat. (But remember, if you aren’t incorporating resistance training, you are at a much higher risk of losing muscle and/or gaining fat!) Also, keep in mind that it is practically impossible to gain ONLY muscle without a little bit of fat along with it.. just as it is impossible to lose ONLY fat without losing a little bit of muscle.
Eat clean and within the calorie range you have determined you need for your goals, and you will likely reach them much faster than if you are “eating dirty”! =)
