Im linking up with Jen again for Fitness Fridays. Im loving these link ups and challenges they keep me accountable :D
1. What is your least favorite exercise and why?
ABS even though I try to do an ab workout at least 3 times a week. After 2 c-sections my stomach muscles are pretty much worthless and doing abs is painful and then when I look down I see my mom kangaroo pouch and I immediately yell at my kids.. look what you did to me! Lol just kidding...I can say Im starting to see some definition and that kangaroo pouch is slowly going away. C-sections are a bitch, and ab workouts are too!
2. What is your resting heart beats per minute? (to calculate count your pulse for 15 seconds and multiply by 4)
Im a loser and can't find my pulse... am I dead?! Okay I found it on my neck and the number I got was 68... now Jen explain to me what this means LOL
3. Do you prefer to exercise alone or with company?
I'd love to have a workout buddy but have yet to find one. I invite but an excuse always gets in the way and aint nobody got time for dat!
4. What is your go to exercise outfit?
I really want all those cute razor backs with the awesome sayings on them and the cute shoes but hey broke mama here so I go with my skulls tank and pants.. I actually think its a PJ set from Walmart but Hello SKULLS I rock that shit!
5. Think about this time last year. Are you more or less active than you were a year ago?
More active, last year I was simply counting calories and going to a boxing class twice a week. Now Im working out at least 5 times a week and really seeing a difference. I weigh 6 lbs more than I did last year but at my lowest weight I had flab and was 'skinny fat' as I call it. Now I look more lean and tone! The number on the scale isn't everything ladies!
Your resting heartbeat is right on par! So proud of you for uping your activity level this year. Keep it up girlfriend!
ReplyDeleteI am way more active than I was last year thankfully! Great post girlie!
ReplyDeleteI hate abs!! I just try to do core exercises because otherwise I feel like I'm making my pooch poke out more, lol. At least with core I feel like I'm pulling it all in ;)
ReplyDeleteWhy do work out clothes have to cost so much!!! I wear the same few outfits over and over and over again!
ReplyDeleteOh, abs. That is a very close second on my list of hates, hahaha. 68 is good for a resting heart rate! :] Normal is usually 60-100, and elite-level endurance athletes tend to have resting heart rates below 60. :]
ReplyDeleteHaha--I like to work out with a buddy too, it makes me go. But I do get tired of people saying they want to come work out with me--and then have an excuse.
ReplyDeletehaha i always wear funny t-shirts to work out in! i hate doing abs too, ugh!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the awesome work.. I would so work out with you if we lived closer. I like walking, running and yoga buddies.
ReplyDeleteAb workouts can be a pain. I have flab that won't go away. But it's also because I love to eat.
ReplyDeleteI'm totally with you on the shirts. I see all of the cute ones online, then I see the $25+ price tag. I like to occasionally check GoodWill for shirts. You can find some really unique ones.
ReplyDeleteC-sections? OUCH. And that kangaroo pouch shit is impossible to get rid of! Like, seriously - if someone made a product to get rid of it they'd make a killing! As for the heart beat thing, I don't get it either. And for workout clothes I just use leggings/yoga pants and a tank top. I did just start with Fabletics so I'll let you know how that goes. Lol.
ReplyDeletethat's awesome you're more active now. and weight doesn't matter if you're healthier now!
ReplyDeleteWay to stay focused.. you will need to rub off on me for sure!
