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

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

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

What's New With You? Linkup #2

Hi everyone!  Thanks for stopping by today for the second "What's New With You" Linkup!  Kristen and I were so happy with the response from our first one, so I can't wait to read all of your posts again today! Let's get into it and talk about what's new in my world! House Hunting Yes..again.  I hope that one month I'll be able to take this off my list!  I've talked a lot about the ups and downs of house hunting, and I finally have some positive updates to share.  First, some story time. I talked last month about getting into a bidding war for house #1 and losing.  Right after that, a great house popped up on the market in my ideal neighborhood for a steal.  I knew it would go quickly, so I scheduled a visit with my realtor that night and had my parents come along.  We pulled up, and- no lie- there were ten other people there .  Crazy!  We then learned that there were offers pouring in for this house and we had 24 hours to put in our highe
