p90x ab routine!! IT WILL BURN, learn to love it.

I hated this the first time I did it… never did it again. They go wayyy too fast for me! I ended up falling over, coming out of form, messing up, falling behind… it was terrible.

BUT! I’m not going to give up. I’m doing p90x starting in May, and I WILL finish. :)

Earlier in March I was 256. I’m now at 250. A little bit is better than nothing at all. So far I haven’t noticed any dramatic changes physicall. i am trying to eat smaller, healthier and better portioned meals.
At the same time I’m tracking what I’m eating at Sparkpeople.com so I have a way of being accountable an don’t have to write my daily intake here.

*Holds up a glass of water* cheers to a successful April.

Sparkpeople.com is running a giveaway to help promote Healthy Surprise, a subscription based healthy snack company.

I think the company idea is interesting, but then I’m one of those peoples that prefers just to grab some fruit or veggies from my counter or fridge as my snack item. However, the concept is interesting for anyone that’s on the go and wants to learn and try some different snack ideas from brands they haven’t heard of, or may not have access to.

All over my back, shoulders an chest, and you know what, it’s a part of me. The strechmarks don’t matter when I compare it to whether or not I’m living healthy.

INSTEAD OF: PUSHUPS
TRY THIS: SHAPE SHIFTERS

Pushups are an amazingly effective exercise, but if you always do them the same way, you’re missing out on some new ways to challenge your arms, chest, back, and core. Target your entire body with this press and push combo.
To do it: Start at the top of a modified pushup position with your hands wide (we recommend trying this move with your knees bent and then progressing your way up to straight legs).
Bend your elbows and lower your chest down and to the right, about an inch off the floor. Then, press your body to the left arm, extending your right arm as you shift your weight (don’t let your body touch the ground, and stay low), then shift over to the right arm, extending the left. That’s one rep. Try to do as many in a row as you can (you may need to build up to doing several in a row).
Options: This move can be super tough (even on your knees), so if you need to, start by bringing your chest all the way to the floor when you shift to the side, and then push off and over to the floor on the other side.


Am I the only one that thinks this looks fun?!
