My Workout Philosophy View My Full Workout Program
Consistency is key!
The hardest part for me is to get up off of the couch and get out the door to the gym. I try to stay as consistent as possible, when it hits 8:00 I know it is time to be heading out the door, I don't give myself a choice. Once I get to the gym and get going I feel great and know it is worth it. It used to be that if I missed a day going to the gym, the whole week would be the same for some reason. It was so easy to fall off the tracks, but I think I am finally to the point where I don't let one little mishap ruin my motivation. I just keep trucking along!
I always make sure that I do a 10-15 minute cardio warmup with jogging on the treadmill.
I am learning that strength training is my friend, for some reason so many girls think cardio, cardio, cardio is all they need, and I used to think the same way. Boy was I wrong!
After I do my little warmup I alternate training days between, legs, arms, back/chest.
I follow each strength workout with 30 more minutes of cardio, either jogging or the stair stepper.
I noticed that when I follow through with my goals each week I start to see great results, and that is more motivating than anything else out there! :)

Eating clean...for the most part ;)
I stopped worrying about dieting or trying to newest weirdest way to "lose weight" I have tried to cut out packaged foods and only eat natural things. I am not on an extreme diet, but I do watch my calorie intake and make sure that I am eating foods that will keep me satisfied and give my body the energy and nutrition that it needs! I have tried so many different diets and always felt starved, I am learning how to eat clean and healthy and not go hungry!
Although I am not saying that I don't allow myself some good food here and there, maybe once a week if I am out with family or friends I am not so strict on myself...but the next day I am right back at it!

Going after a better me!
Looking at fitness competitors and others who are fit can be a good way to get motivated. But for me what has finally started working is to quit trying to look like someone else and to try to be best me that I can. Of course seeing other success stories is great but I want to be my own success story. I stopped worrying about what someone else did to get fit or how long it took someone else to get fit, I am just simply on my own journey. I stopped looking for others to motivate me and started motivating myself and pushing myself!
