Review- Group Power

Image
Happy Weekend everyone!  Today, I'll be doing a review of another group exercise I do at my gym called Group Power !  Let's get right into it. First off, the description in our program guide is "This 60-minute barbell program strengthens all your major muscles in an inspiring, motivating group environment with simple, athletic movements such as squats, lunges, presses and curls." I don't exactly look like this when I'm curling..but you get the idea! Let me tell you, this is one intense workout!  For the entire 60 minutes, we're constantly moving and lifting and by the end I'm a pool of sweat!  We work out all the major muscle groups - Legs, Chest, Triceps, Biceps, Glutes, Shoulders, and Core with light to moderate weights.  We also use a step to do exercises like chest presses and split squats. For each song, we focus on one muscle group, and do a variety of exercises with lots of repetitions, set to the beat of the music.  The tempo of the

Relationship Rules I Broke (and WEDDING PHOTOS!)

Image
Happy Thursday everyone! Today I have a different type of post to share today.  I don't talk about relationships or my dating life much on the blog, but I'm switching it up today!  I got married last Friday, and I thought it would be fun to share some relationship rules that I broke while Dan and I dated. I'll also be sharing some wedding pictures!  We got married at the Butterfly Falls at the Hidden Valley Inn in Belize (more on the Inn in upcoming posts!), and the pictures turned out absolutely amazing.  Since we had a "just the two of us" ceremony, there's not much to talk about the actual wedding.  In lieu of a full post on that, I'll be sharing some background information on our relationship, along with wedding photos and some #ThrowbackThursday pictures.  I hope you enjoy (and I promise- back to running stuff next week!) Guys are immature, so date someone older I've always read in magazines (which, by the way, have the worst datin

What's New With You? Link-Up #1

Image
Welcome to the very first "What's New With You" link-up!  This is all about sharing what's going on in your life, and I can't wait to catch up with all of you!  Make sure you check in with my co-host, Kristen , to see what she's up to. Here's what's new with me: House Hunting Update Last week, Dan and I put in an offer on a house that we really liked!  It seemed perfect to me- great location, at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, plenty of storage space and a huge back yard.  We ended up in a bidding war with another couple, and nearly got the house but couldn't move in as early as they wanted, so we passed. I was disappointed at first, but now I'm realizing all the things that weren't great and I was willing to put up with- walk to bus stop was down a busy road with no sidewalk, the flat yard ended at a cliff which would scare me with Selma running around outside, the bedrooms were tiny and so was the kitchen.   Now that Dan
