Easy workout

Hi lovelies

Thought I would share my easy workout I did today. I know workouts shouldn't be easy, but I had an appointment at the dentist, so working out/blood pumping so it would hurt my tooth was not really on my mind... Therefore I present an easy workout for you guys

Do this workout 3x

And this one 3x

This one 1x

And finally this one 1x

Your legs will die during this, I can promise you that. 

I know it's not the hardest or demanding routines today, but that was all I could do :/

I hope you guys are having a great week

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 :)

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.

Monday motivation - Summer fit (MY WORKOUT)

As some of you know, I have made small steps into a healthier lifestyle, after falling off the wagon for some months. Some might say that the cure to depression is working out. That might be true, but the first steps are so hard to take and easily it is becoming a habit of saying "Oh I will do that later", or "Oh I'll do it tomorrow"... and then so on, and so on. I did fell into that hole, and I would just hide away in my bed, feeling sad and lonely. Then I made a post not so long ago about wanting to start again, and I am. I mostly work out at home or go for a run/power walk instead of going to the gym.

Today it was actually freezing outside, so I worked out on my Kinect (for XBOX) - I usually do your shape 2012 or Dance central 3. Today I did Dance central 3. I have my own little (BIG) fitness playlist that leaves me tired as hell.

After that I did a couple of tone it up videos, took a shower and now I am seriously ready to sleep.

I wanted to share with you the videos I did today

I did this Love your Booty video 3 times

Then I did this love your arms 3 times

Then It was time for this workout. Only 1 time (I started getting tired lol)

And then I finished it all of with this TLC workout 3 times

I am far from where I want to be with my weight, but at least I am at it again, and I will kick ass. When I return home from Paris I will start to make leg days, core days, arm days and so on.

If you guys want to see more of this, leave a comment below :)

Hugs to you all

Welcome 2013

Hi guys, 

I hope you had a great new years, and have had an awesome start to 2013.

I gave myself a little break from the blogging world (two days), cause I had been writing every day in December and figured you guys needed a break as well ;)

My new years eve was lovely, I was with my boyfriend, eating lots of food, drinking and dancing.

Next day (jan 1), I was feeling really sorry for myself. I had a headache from hell, and all that stuff about being healthy just doesn't cut it when you have a hangover - sorry

Jan 2, I started school. Super early I know. I started off by learning a new language... German to be exact. It is a bit hard, so if you guys have any tips on learning german please let me know.

As of right now, I am trying to put a workout playlist together... new year = New music.

I am one of those persons who gets bored very fast, so I always need something new to keep me entertained.

What have you guys been doing these past couple of days?

Hey lovelies hope you are doing good.
Sorry for the lack of blogs these last couple of days but google chrome is totally screwing blogger up for me and I thought it would be cleared by now but its not, so now im back using safari.

Anywhoozle on to what this blog is about ABS!
I don't do this routine all the time cause I like to switch things up, but here are what I have been doing this week.

I started off this morning with a run for about 40 minutes on the beach

later I did this:

Do this video 3 times

Do this video 1 time

Do this video 3 times

The best thing is that you can do all these videos at home with limited space.

I hope you guys are doing good and are staying motivated :)
