Summertime & Living With Purpose

July 31, 2013 Comments : 2

I remember the days where I used to blog every day, about nothing more than my daily activities & workouts. I miss it. Now, I always feel intimidated when I sit in front of my computer screen…I feel like I have nothing to say that is ‘newsworthy’. As I found myself thinking that recently, I felt like I needed to challenge myself to think of a reason why each day is unique. It’s so easy to get caught up in the day-to-day, but alas, that’s the irony of life. Merely living isn’t enough…it’s important to live with purpose. As I’m trying to get better about that, I really want to write more, too. After all, writing is one of my passions – I am grateful to have a fulfilling career that allows me to write every single day. Now I just need to channel my passion for writing back into my personal life, too! So, I’m going to start today. ๐Ÿ™‚

My husband and I recently joined a gym together, which has been really nice. Once I stopped teaching Spin over a year ago, I stopped using my gym membership and started relying on my treadmill for a majority of my workouts. Let me tell ya, after a while, staring at a wall and running on a treadmill gets a little boring! So, now that I’m officially back in the gym, I’ve started lifting weights more frequently than I had been…which is awesome. I used to strength train a lot more when I was going to the gym in the past, so it’s nice to have access to all of the equipment and free weights again. I love running – it’s my go-to workout…but the wear and tear from accumulating miles and not strengthening my legs properly was really starting to take its toll! It’s also nice to spend extra time with my husband…because I used to go run alone for an hour or so, which was time we could’ve been spending together. Now, we work out side by side every day! It’s safe to say I’m enjoying our new workout routine ๐Ÿ™‚ 

One of the reasons for my blog neglect is the fact that I use Instagram to share a lot about what’s happening in my life. I definitely need to get better about sharing photos on here…especially of Paige ๐Ÿ˜‰ Our pup hasn’t made the blog as of late due to my lack of writing, but she’s as adorable as ever! I also #overgram about Tone It Up. Still loving TIU, especially the newest edition with so many healthy recipes. My husband evens eats TIU-approved meals…although, he probably didn’t realize that until  now. ๐Ÿ™‚

My newest ‘obsession’ is Advocare, which I’ve mentioned on the blog before. I’m loving the MNS supplements, Catalyst, and ThermoPlus. I also just started another 24-Day Challenge because its been 3 months since the last one…crazy that 3 months have already flown by! I’m really loving Advocare products in combination with weight lifting, because it really helps build and tone lean muscle mass. Since I love the products so much, I decided that I would become a distributor…not only do I get a nice discount, but I love sharing Advocare with others! For someone like me, who can talk fitness & nutrition all day long, it’s the perfect way to share my passion. If you’re interested in learning more, or becoming a distributor (so you can get a discount, too!) check it out here. 

Summer has been pretty laid-back – we’ve gone to a few concerts (including Train…our first dance song was “Marry Me”, so it was neat to hear the song live in concert!), had some beach days, a baseball game, and yesterday, went out on my parents’ boat. I feel like summer is flashing by right before my eyes, but I’ve been making a conscious effort to enjoy each day. Our weeklong OBX trip with my family is coming up the week of Labor Day, so I’m definitely looking forward to that! Lots of beach time, morning bike rides with my dad, and relaxation with no thoughts of working for a whole week! I. Can’t. Wait.

That pretty much sums up what’s been happening lately…now I just need to keep the blog updated on a regular basis. ๐Ÿ™‚
