Sorry, I have been SERIOUSLY slacking on my blog posts

I'm sorry to say that I have seriously neglected my blog...my apologies to anyone who was anticipating more posts. But hey, I'm a busy college girl and I'm only human, right? I have made it one of my goals this month to update more regularly...multiple times per week. So bear with me while I try to catch you up to speed on my fitness/health journey.

So...last time I posted I was doing the 21 Day Fix which I wrote a whole post about. I finished three rounds of the fix and LOVED it. It really kick started my fitness journey and helped me look at food in a completely new way. I also fell in love with the exercises. I also had mentioned that I would be starting PiYo (a mix between Pilates and Yoga). I did about three weeks of this program and decided to put it on my back burner for now and save for later. Don't get me wrong, I completely loved the program and all it had to offer me (especially with flexibility and just overall relaxing and strengthening my body) but it just wasn't the program I was looking for at this point in my fitness journey. What I was looking for was a high intensity, fat burning exercise program that would really kick my ass into gear. And guess what?! I've found it!

I started T25 last Monday with three of my best friends. It's a workout program done by Shaun T (you know that crazy guy who came out with the Insanity workouts? Yeah, him!). It's a 25 minute, no bullshit workout. You get in and you get out. Is it hard? Absolutely! It has kicked my butt every single day so far and has made me ridiculously sore. Seriously, I didn't know you could sweat this much from a workout. Don't believe me? Take a look for yourself.

 We have been working up some serious sweat...and yes, it's only in 25 minutes! The workouts are only 5 days a week (Monday through Friday) with an optional stretch video to do on the weekends. This program is literally amazing for busy people who "don't have enough time". There is no excuse. Anyone has time for this. I know what you're thinking...well Jenn, it's only 25 minutes so it's got to be some super intense, crazy workout that no one can keep up with unless they are super fit. And you know what I have to say to that? WRONG! There is a modifier for every workout so if at any point something seems too difficult you can just follow her...and you still see amazing results! I've got to be honest, a good portion of the time, I'm following Tania (the modifier) and I still get an amazing workout in and am seeing results! Here, let me show you!

You can see from the picture that my stomach is already starting to de-bloat (is that even a word?). Well anyways, I am far less bloated on the left (now) than I was on the right (when I started). And this is only after one week! Seriously, I can't give enough praise to this program. Of course I am also still drinking my Shakeology which has been giving me the amazing energy to do this workouts and really nail them! Right now I am drinking Tropical Strawberry which has been a nice refreshing taste during the summer. I am however, a chocolate girl (always have been and always will be) and will be going back to that flavor in this upcoming month! Honestly, they're both delicious though I just love all that they do for me.

I think that's about it for now. I will keep you all posted on my progress with this program and as I said, I am making it a goal and a priority to keep up with this blog!!! If you have any questions or just want to chat with me, feel free to send me an email at jennifer.conley1993@gmail.com and I will get back to you as soon as I can.
