GL Gets Fit #216 {lift anyway}

November 27, 2018Leave a comment

These days I think nothing of doing a workout involving weights, but it hasn't always been that way for me. Like manyÂ girls, I grew up thinking that only men were 'allowed' to lift weights... Happy Tuesday!

I cannot believe it’s been over a month since I’ve written something! My life is probably the busiest it’s ever been, but part of that is my fault in working a bunch and then opting for working a part time job. What can I say, your girl likes money! Continue reading →

Get Stronger. Happy Sunday loves! I hope you’ve had a fantastic week! This past week my trainer took me back to my high school days. We lifted like I lifted in high school. I was in weight lifting competitions in high school. This week, we did squats, bench and deadlifts. It was fun to get back into my groove.

Hi Loves!

Happy Friday! This might be the longest I’ve gone on my blog without writing a post. Sometimes life gets in my way. Well life and a full time job and a part time job.

I also have a tendency to overbook myself and run until I’m near a breaking point.

I can’t believe my last post was on Sept 20, and today is October 12.

The only weight that matters is the one on your barbell. Fitness, Weightlifting, Strength, Workout, Training, Personal Training, Motivation, Encouragement, Powerlifting, Gym, Goals, Health, Body Image, Happy Thursday Loves!

I’m now officially 2.5 weeks into working out with my trainer. Today’s workout was rough. We did weights for about 30 minutes and then finished with 10 minutes on a stair climber. I’m not even going to lie, I wasn’t sure how I was going to make it after 2 minutes I wanted to quit. But he kept by my side, kept talking to me, and we got thru it. Continue reading →

Hi Loves,

You get me after two fairly solid workouts with my trainer! Holy cramole… I was sore after the first day. Like I waddled around because I had angry angry thighs!

My first workout was setting the bar and seeing where I was at in lifting. Yesterday we bumped it up a notch.

Don't think about what can happen in a month. Don't think about what can happen in a year. Just focus on the 24 hours in front of you and do what you can to get closer to where you want to be. get fit, work out, fitspiration, fitness motivation quotes Happy Tuesday night Loves!

First fail, last week was pure craziness and I didn’t get around to writing a post. I worked a ton and then went out of town for the three day weekend. Getting away from work was a nice way to reset.

Last week I got my first taste of how crazy my job can get. It was about a 13 hour day but in the end, everything worked out, and I succeeded. (WIN!) Continue reading →
