Long time no....exercise?

Good grief it's been way too long!!

Working out is a weird routine for me. The hardest thing is to motivate myself to work out one day. All it takes is one day and I can work out every day! ...until I take that one day off. Once I take a day off, it becomes a week. Or in this case, two weeks.

I finally got myself to exercise today! You wanna know how? I bought some new gear. My family and I recently went to the outlets and Nike was having their Black Friday sale. SCORE! I bought some athletic leggings and a lightweight running jacket. Now that I can look extra cute when I run, I figured that it was time to start exercising again.

This evening I went to the gym and worked out on the elliptical. I told myself that I was going to run/jog/walk intervals on the machine. Boy did I sweat a lot.. attractive! When I got home I turned on some blogilates and did some pilates at home. I did her "Total Body Bangin' Workout."

I learned that I am extremely out of shape. I want to get back into the habit of working out regularly so that I can "just go run 5 miles" like I used to. Also, I want to build some muscle, especially on my upper body.

One thing that I would like to try out is some zumba! It looks super fun and I heard that it's great exercise. Maybe next time you'll find a post on my first zumba experience!
