Workout wednesday: Wild fire legs

Hey guys, and happy wednesday.

Today I am bringing back workout wednesday, and this time with a workout that is going to shape up our legs really good. I did this workout yesterday just to try it out before writing about it, and oh boy do I feel my legs today... When I woke up it felt like my butt and thighs were on fire. I did do some arm exercises as well yesterday, but dont really feel that today.

Lets go:

I recently discovered this youtube channel Xhit daily (that is where the videos are from) and do have to say I am enjoying them, and on top of that they keep me motivated.

I hope you guys enjoyed this little workout... I am going to rest my legs a little before another killer workout today

Have a super awesome wednesday.

Monday motivation: My monday workout

Hey Lovelies...

Why not start the week of by getting a great workout in and feeling super great about yourself.
I was out with the family yesterday, and we had so much fun walking around the city and on the habor, that we walked for miles (it sure feels like a lot of miles/km), so a monday leg workout was not really on my mind. Instead I focused on everything... I guess. I just felt like doing whatever I found fun today.

Do this Hot tottie pilates body 3x

Strap workout 3x. I really LOVE this workout, it is one of my go to workouts when I don't know what to do.

Beach bum workout 1x BURN!

Itty bitty bikini 1x

She sells seashells by the seashore 3x. Such a great workout

I hope you guys will enjoy todays workout. I might talk my bf into a walk around the lake after dinner.

Stay motivated

I thought it would be a cool thing to share some of the songs that I am listening to at the moment, when I am working out. I love creeping around peoples playlists and get inspiration for mine, So if you guys have any suggestions please feel free to share them with me and others.

Robin Thick - Blurred Lines. I cannot get this song out of my head, so of course it's on my list.

Simple Plan - Take my hand. GREAT running song. This one always pushes me a bit further.

Alina Devecerski: Flytta på dej

Fall out boy: My songs know what you did in the dark (light em up). This song is so good

Five: Everbody get up. Oldie but a goodie. This song always make me feel like a bad ass

Faber drive: G-Get up and dance

Sugababes: Get Sexy

Marina and the diamonds: How to be a heartbreaker. This song is amazing

Cher Lloyd: Want you back

We the kings: Party, fun, love & radio. I am in love with this song

So there you guys have it. 10 work out songs, that keeps me going. I have a ton more somgs, but If I had to put them all on here it would be an extremely long blog.

Wednesday workout #2 ARMS & ABS

Hello guys

I hope the week is treating you well so far, and that you are enjoying the summer.
I thought I would bring back wednesday workout for you :)
After following other fitness freaks I found out they all follow some kind of schedule like abs one day, legs the other and so on. So... therefore I tried it myself (kinda failed, but it's okay). I started monday with doing abs, but somehow I just wasn't feeling it so I didn't do as much as I wanted. Then yesterday I decided to do abs again and the incorporate an arm workout. My arms are so weak, so I have decided to do something about it... starting out slowly of course, otherwise my arms would die completely O.o

Heres what I did yesterday:

(3 times)

(1 time - my abs were burning after this one)

(1 time)

(3 times)

Later on I went for a 30 min powerwalk

Today (wednesday) I am feeling it in my abs.. The fat is crying and dying lol

Later on I will work on my booty... Or maybe just go steal it from J.LO ;)

Have a nice day

Wednesday workout routine

Hey guys... it is finally wednesday, and that means only two days until friday wooop

I thought I would share my wednesday workout with you guys, so you can kick your butt into shape with me :P

I haven't been working out for 3 days and I can feel it in my body. I was packing and moving boxes around, when I made a wrong lift. I have been in bed for two days, it was not until yesterday I was somewhat normal :)

Enough talking, Lets workout...

Do this routine 2x 

Do this one 3x

This one 3x

And you probably guessed it... this one 3x

You can finish this off by doing some cardio for at least 30 mins. Run, power walk or even dance. We are going to have heavy rain in my part of the country today, so I am not sure I can squeeze in a powerwalk, but then I will be dancing my butt of infront of the tv (Xbox)

What are your favorite youtube workout channels? I need inspiration :D

I hope you guys are having a great week :)

I was featured - yay

Yesterday was an amazing day for me, and a great kick in the butt to get back to the blogging world.

I wrote a post about 5 tips to lose weight, and I really spent a lot of time on it and was really pleased with it. 

After I posted the post my day continued and all of the sudden my phone was buzzing like crazy. I saw all these tweets and new followers and I was like... what is going on? I looked and it said I was featured on bloggers.com as pick of the day along with 2 other blogs.

I obviously didn't believe it, so I had to check it, and then double check it and triple check it lol... and there I was on the front page. I couldn't believe it, I was all smiles and got the sweetest messages. I even had to tell my bf "LOOK...LOOOK I am on the front page" lol

If you dont have a profile on there, you really should, cause it is a great way to discover new blogs and get noticed yourself.

I had planned on doing a post about my pics from Paris, but I had a dentist appointment today and it didn't really go the way that I've planned... so I am still in a bit of pain and I just don't feel like putting it up today... sorry guys :*

I hope you had an amazing day, and the rest of your week is going to be kick ass

5 tips to lose weight

Hey guys, I just wanted to do a little monday motivation blog post for you guys about losing weight. Keep in mind that I am not a professionnel, and these tips are my own tips for you guys.

1. Be realistic

What do you see when you look in the mirror? 

Usually we tend to see ourselves as ugly flappy creatures when trying to lose weight, when in reality right infront of you stands a beautiful soul. SKINNY IS NOT THE WAY TO GO, HEALTHY IS! If you didn't know it, being skinny as a stick can be just as dangerous as being obese. Keep in mind that you are beautiful no matter what size you are.

2. Dieting is a no go

If you decide to be healthy and lose a bit of weight, then yay that is good for you. 

When you start this health kick then don't buy into all these so call diets. Being healthy is a lifestyle that your body needs you to remain throughout your life... your body will thank you for it.

People often thinks that in order to lose weight you only have to exercise... WRONG. Food has a lot of saying in whether or not you lose the weight.

3. Exercise

Get up and get moving. Go for a run outside and enjoy your surroundings, if you can't run, then go for a power walk. Studies show that power walks does wonders for your body. Join a gym with a buddie, or do it alone if you prefer that (personally I like going alone - I enjoy my "me-time"). 

If you can't afford a gym membership, look videos up on youtube. A home gym is just as good for your body as a pro gym. you can even do cardio at home... I use dancing games and training games on the xbox for my little cardio fix on those days when I don't want to go outside. You all know does days when it is raining and home is just the place to be.

4. Change it up

If you have found the perfect fitness/cardio/running routine and you master it like a superstar, it might be time to switch it up with a new little exercise routine. If you do the same exercise over and over again, day after day, your body becomes used to that training session and not much will happen. Mix it up or add in some new moves to your routine. I usually switch up my youtube playlist workout every week.

5. Have fun

Lets face it, you are not gonna stick to exercising and eating healthy if it's becoming a chore. Find something that makes YOU happy, no matter if it makes you look silly or just totally weird. If people look at you funny it's their problem, not yours. They are probably just jealous that you are comfortable enough to have fun no matter what. I never thought I could do dance workouts infront of my bf, but I am having so much fun that I don't care... I just laugh it off. And now he is the one cheering me on.
Make food fun. Make dinner with a friend or your bf/gf... Not only is it fun, it can also be romantic and very healthy.
Healthy food doesn't have to taste bad, you can actually find some pretty good recipes online.

I hope this motivated you guys a little :)

Have a kick ass day, and take every day as it comes.

It's a fitness thing ;)

Summer is almost here (hopefully), and we all want to look our best. Sometimes we lose the motivation, but I hope these pictures will help you get moving.
To be honest, I haven't been working out much lately... lack of motivation, depression and lots of other stuff came in the way, but not anymore. I am going to move my ass and get fit again :D

If you guys want me to write blogs about how my little goal goes, let me know.

Now it is bed time... I have an early run tomorrow :P
