Fun Fit Mama

Tonight’s edition of working out at home: flash card frenzy. The boys did their homework IN my workout space tonight, and my sweet big guy was making sure I saw that he knew every single sightword on his flash cards. Bless him littlest man was all done and waiting patiently for warned tv time #hangingonthebench Recorded the burnout portion of my workout tonight = 3 straight minutes of soccer run, push-up with alternating knees, sumo squat jumps, alternating plyo pushups ...(regular / tricep), plyo lunges, and push-up tucks while boys work on homework and finished off with a big hug from my biggest little man in comments since I can only upload one video at a time. #todaywasrestday #didabonusworkoutinstead #noexcuses #boymom #funfitmama

Friday I finished something I haven’t done in quite awhile - I finished an 8 week program start to finish with no missed workouts and no excuses, despite some potential setbacks (like an ulcer and spring break)! It felt really good and I am proud of myself! I wish I had taken better before photographs but I’ll share afters after work. I lost a total of 8 pounds BUT gained some serious muscle I celebrated Saturday doing something I haven’t done in years - pushing my guys in a stroller for a timed 5k! It was brutallllll, guys. But I did better than I expected (considering I haven’t run since the half in November) and my boys thought it was SO FUN to get out and run the last leg and through the finish line together! I think I’ll get them training for our next race and ditch the stroller

I’ve been quiet but I’m still over here getting my sweat on I’ve been battling allergies for over a week now {I have almost no voice} but I’ve pushed through and I really think it’s helping clear all this congestion in my head! Onto Max 30 for the next few weeks - it’s been interesting with my equilibrium off and the intensity of the workouts, but I’m pushing on! I feel so much better at the end of those 30 minutes so I’m not stopping anytime soon. ... And don’t ask me what these kids are doing - maybe thinking mama is crazy standing here taking weird pictures in the mirror #funfitmama #shaunt #insanitymax30 #strongnotskinny #photobomb

Words to live by.

I think it’s so great our city offers these fun, free workouts! This one looks great! Anyone up for some cardio tennis?! #ilovetheburg #healthystpete
