Kick boxing and kick ass workouts.

Hello ladies and gents (well if anyone out there is actually reading this),

I've been feeling really down about myself lately, and a lot of negative body talk as been going on.
So I decided to stop throwing myself a pity party and actually do something about it.

As the last two and a half weeks of my freshman college classes and final exams come to a close, I decided I need to get my body moving anyways. Lately I've either been studying and working on projects or sitting around on my butt watching Netflix for hours on end. And with more and more television watching, comes more snacking. And more snacking leads to cravings for junk food.. and it just snowballs from there.

So yesterday was going to be the day where I started it all.... however I ended up hanging out with some friends instead so today was the day! And let me tell you, this workout was kick ass. It was a Jillian Michaels work out video I had found on youtube. It's about an hour long and it's a total body conditioning workout with a lot of kick boxing influences. I absolutely loved it! All the moves were adaptable to your fitness level and it really pushed you. I've done sports my entire life and I've never done circuit workouts that tough. (And I did circuit workouts daily when I swam competitively!) This is going to be the workout that I stick with for awhile, while providing myself some rest/yoga days. Then when I get home I'll incorporate some trail running and such. Gotta ease my way into it of course!

Needless to say, I feel incredibly accomplished right now. I just hope I keep holding onto the motivation that I have right now. I know if I do I'll definitely see results!
