Radioactive Fitness! And CELEBRATION!!



End of the week! Yay!! I have one more day of Body Beast  - I probably wont post daily blogs about it anymore b/c it will repeat a few weeks. Maybe we'll talk about recipes;)

So today I ran 4.75 miles (still training for a 15K in February - yikes!)  and then did shoulder day.

It was a challenge.  I looked over at my hubby and asked him what the heck was this or that move? He's an Army veteran and loves to lift and for once, kinda smirked b/c he knew the workout better than me - I got him in cardio though! ;)

Lots of presses, lats and stuff..hence the video showing that I DO have shoulders! Say what?!?! Probably the strongest looking part of my physique thus far.  Working on being supa dupa awesome soon!

First, Challenge Groups - this program Im doing now (Body Beast) is tough! Waking up and doing it alone is not as easy as you think it may be for me.  So why do that w/o a group? Um, DONT! That's why I have free challenge groups!  They offer accountability, tips, tricks and all kinds of info from THE TRAINERS - you know the masterminds behind the programs you'd be pushing play to each day? Just saying..its a fool proof win win.

Next, what is radioactive fitness? Well it came to me when I was listening to this song mid run this morning.  I've decided that, I will be spontaneous and EXPLOSIVE when it comes to positive changes in my life. My fitness (physical, mental and financial) come from what I choose to do.  What can you be explosive about?

Happy FLEX FRIDAY! Talk to you again soon! xoxo Jess

Ongoing Lessons in Life and BALANCE

Hi My name is Jessica and I’m admittedly diagnosed with  ADHD. Watching my feed it’s like, “right. was there a question? You randomly dress in tutus”  However, I’ve always been more than functional with this, but sometimes, or rather for me, one time, it got to be more than I could bear. It takes a transition to get you to re-think and reassess how you approach things and how you react to changes and issues that come about. This is the longest post ever but here we go... The Background  I’m a middle child.    Middle child syndrome set in long ago and I’m definitely a people pleaser, mediator if you will. I love it and sometimes hate it.    I want to be mediated on once in a while! Can someone sorta let me just BE there and NOT be involved in the resolution? The answer is usually no.   Pressing on, I got married a little young, 23 to be exact and proceeded into full Stepmom (two amazing kiddos), wife, worker, grad student, gym go...

Divorce diaries

 this will be a shorter sort of rambling entry. It all matters. With my ex and I called it off, I put up a huge wall and that wall translated into every part of the life I have with my daughter. As much as I thought it didn't matter, kindergarten has been kicking my ass. You read that right my ass. All of it. And I have a big one. And why? Because of that damn wall. We weren't talking. So House on the right didn't know what house on the left was dealing with. It was pretty much awful. But I have seen though is my daughter be someone I didn't know she was, and show me that she's 100 times smarter and more clever than I ever gave her a little clever but credit for. So the diary of a divorcee  starts here…this is the lesson. They're smarter than us. So you got to talk. Kindergarten is getting a little better, actually a lot better. Who the heck learns Mandarin and Spanish , before they get there for teeth? And oh gosh the front teeth. That's another entry 😜… B...

day one...ick

so basically, im a little dissappointed..but ill get to that... i have reached a BLAH state with my workouts and yo-yo weight issues so i decided to try Jay Johnson's bootcamp. I thought, hey, it works for cheerleaders, surely I can hang! I was so nervous!! I went out...spent $225 on the camp and ended up buying new workout clothes and shoes and sweats (geez, you cant just roll into valley ranch looking like trash right?!?!?) and i was ready this morning..queeziness and all...530am..i got there at 520a (10 push ups if you are late!!) and you know what???? it was cancelled! more specifically, no one showed! so im still pretty ticked about it!! i actually am actively trying to reach the caloric goals for each day, so i packed my 4-5 mini meals and im doing ok..i ended up doing some workout at the gym and i ran and such outside with some veterans of the camp before dissapointedly departing the location... lets just say that im overly ready for wednesday and i hope i dont have to get a...
