Happy Friday! I have a little bit of everything for you today. I know my blog posts have been very picture heavy lately, and lacking any real content, but stick with me as I (and the blog) go through some changes and adjustments. Good things to come, I promise!
So let’s talk music. I typically listen to podcasts (here are a few of my favorites) while I workout, but lately I need an a little something to pump me up so I’ve been going back to music.
Country Remixed from tbuck on 8tracks Radio.
I know all you die hard country and edm fans are probably going to die when they hear this (and not in a white girl dead kind of way), but seriously go listen to this while you workout and tell me it is not the best playlist ever.
I have been sticking to my boring old lifting split lately, but after doing a sampling for Nutrishop at Orange Theory, I am dying to try a class.
The workout combines treadmill intervals, rowing, and weights, and the goal is to keep your heart rate in the “orange zone”. I know plenty of bloggers who have already fallen in love with it, and I have no doubt it would kick my cardio-deprived booty.
Actually, I have been doing a little bit of cardio lately. After an extended break from it while I focused on building strength and muscle, it feels good to sweat my face off.
I am starting my (hopefully) final semester of school (!!) on Monday, so I am slowly easing back into prepping my meals. When life gets crazy and I get lazy this little place called Green Bites that has a “fitness menu” and does bodybuilding-esque meals has been saving me.
Basically, you pick your protein (chicken, fish, or steak in 4, 6, 8, 0r 12 oz), your starch (brown rice or sweet potato, and a green veggie. The pricing is reasonable and the food tastes darn good for being so simple. I have my eye on their protein pancakes, shakes, and cookies also.
I posted this throwback Thursday on Instagram yesterday and knew you all would appreciate it.
Forever stealing toys from boys.
Have a fabulous weekend, friends!
