Fitness Friday & A Giveaway

I’ve gotten great feedback on my last couple Fitness Friday posts, and I plan to continue them! I’ve had one request for a typical week of workouts, which I will definitely post about, likely next week. This week I really just wanted to check in with all of you to see how you’re doing so far on your fitness goals for 2013! I’d love to hear what your goals are so I can help encourage you to stick with them this year.

 

So, some motivation for you guys – I posted on Instagram last week that I’d made it to day 400 of my healthy living journey! The time has really flown by, and it’s been really rewarding to see my hard work pay off.

I’ve gotten a few good workouts in this week, and I even had David take a couple updated pictures for me! If you’re not following me on Instagram yet, I try to post motivating/encouraging workout posts several times a week.

Also, I’d love if you guys would join me in this month’s plank a day challenge! Here’s the schedule – I’ll be posting pictures to keep me accountable this month!

  1. I love her Finish Strong & Run, Eat Sleep Repeat Off the Shoulder Sweatshirts! Also the 'you'll never know unless you tri tank. I love the sayings they are great!

    My goals for 2013 are more triathlons (I did my first in 2012), 500 miles running or walking, no alcohol, and to get down to my high school weight (its 14% loss). Big goals but not out of sight!

  4. Girl you are doing awesome! I downloaded the plank challenge and have done 2 days so far. I love the one you have on in your picture!!!
    My goals isn't to loose weight but to be more healthy...more walking less Dr. Peppers.. More water..less junk food.

  5. I love the Fear Less and the Be Your Own Kind Of Beautiful off the shoulder sweatshirts!

    I didn't make goals for the new year this year -- mostly because I'm in the middle of goals, so why start new ones? Although maybe I should post on my continuing goals...

    Anyway, I'm in the middle of training for a 10k. My main goal is to just keep running consistently, but I've found that training plans are what get me to run. So I plan to run a 10k this year! After that I'm thinking the next likely goal will be a half, although I'm going to see how I feel about 6 miles before I try 13 :)

    Thanks for the giveaway!

  6. I have a lot of goals for 2013. I'm actually making a resolution for every month of the year. For January, I'm focusing on a new workout program and extra healthy eating. You can read more about it here: http://freeingimperfections.blogspot.com/2013/01/year-of-resolutions-2013.html

    I absolutely love the thirteen point freaking one tank. I'd be so awesome to run another half with that on!

    Happy New Year!

  7. I actually just started a fitness friday link-up today to help motivate me to get towards my goals! I am hoping to lose the baby weight from my pregnancy and a little extra this year.

  8. Love those! I just ordered a cute baby bump workout tank so I need a few more. Ya know, so everyone knows i'm pregnant and not just trying to get it in the gym! haha

    My Fitness goal for 2013 is to workout as long as possible before baby, and eat healthy for baby! Also, after baby is born I want to be at my pre-pregnancy weight by October!

  19. I'd choose the Spin. Eat. Sleep. Repeat. I used to Spin in college twice a week and loved it and would really love to get back into it. Part of my New Years Resolutions is to get in shape and I just joined a gym with a spinning studio to help me achieve that goal. You and your blog have been so insiring to me. Thanks for all the motivation! I follow you on Instagram as well!

  20. I like the "run like a girl; try to keep up" tank. My goal is to reach my WW goal this year as well as run a half marathon. My husband wants to get to his goal weight and start running with me so I hope to do several 5ks with him.

    I'm not fast, but I enjoy running.

  26. I would definitely go for one of the racing tanks! As far as my fitness goals, I want to continue my working out schedule- 5-6 times a week- as well as my healthy eating. I'm at my healthy weight, but toning up would be good, too!

    ReplyDelete
  27. I like the sweatshirts - either the Finish Strong or discipline Off the Shoulder Comfy Couture Eco Fleece Sweatshirt look great!

  28. I would love the Sweat is Fat Crying tank :) My goal is to run the entirety of a half marathon this year!

  33. I like the run, eat, sleep repeat shirt

  34. I ADORE the "earned, not given" sweatshirt. I think I need it because people tend to assume that if you're toned, you're naturally toned. Uh, no.
    I'm planning on keeping up with my kickboxing and strength training. I feel I've found a balance and I don't want to lose it.
    Pinning your plank challenge!

  35. It is a HARD choice but I LOVE the sweatshirts and either the "earned, not given" or "strong is the new skinny". LOVE LOVE LOVE. Thanks for hosting girl. Oh and fitness goal mostly is eat MUCH better, drink LESS, and workout at least 4 times a week.

  37. I love the "I Run Like A Girl, Try To Keep Up" tank...but I also love the off the shoulder sweatshirts!

    My fitness goals are simply to get healthy. I'm heavier than I've ever been and I can't stand to look at myself in the mirror, let alone have my picture taken...

    ReplyDelete
