Lower Body Workouts

I love lower body workouts!

I feel so much stronger and it makes me so happy that I can do the workouts! Today I did the BACK ON FIRE video along with the Legs for Days Cardio Challenge, and the Roar Challenge.

The Back on Fire video was pretty hard for me because I don't have much upper body strength, but my core is the worst! I really want to be able to do core videos and not feel so weak and disgusting. I shall do the core videos to get better!

I loved the Legs for Days Cardio Challenge. It was loads of fun and it made my heart beat so quickly!

The Roar Challenge was a little hard for me because it was lots of core stuff but I still did my best and I liked it.

Overall, I am sad that I am not a consistant exerciser...but I will get there. I'm hoping to run almost everyday before my brother's wedding and my 21st birthday. I'm not too sure how that's going to work out but it will happen. I need to be motivated. I need to read blogs and looks at things that will motivate me!

There is going to be a change.

Bubble Butt

I did three videos today!

1. Bubble Butt Workout 
2. Sculpted Legs in Skinny Leggings Workout 
3. Drive By Inner Thigh Workout 

I am very happy that I went through all of them with lots of determination! I just kept telling myself that I want to be able to wear jeans again and wear them with confidence. 

I'm not a huge girl, but I used to be a size 3 in high school. I'm afraid I'm nowhere near that anymore. I'm not trying to get back to that size, I would love to but I'm trying to think of a more realistic goal. I really just want to see the results. I don't like going on scales because I don't care about the number. I care about how I look - not in that vain sort of way. I can see where I've gained weight and I'd like to try to lose weight in those places.

There's a huge problem that I've been going through and it's addiction to Milk Tea. Yes, that's crazy right? But there's this amazing Milk Tea place right across campus and it's just a five minute walk away. I've been getting it like twice a week. That is so much sugar and it's something that I don't want to add on to my life because I'm trying to lose weight. I think I'm going to limit myself now. Of course I wouldn't want to just totally stop because I might go crazy and idk. I'll get it maybe twice a month? AT THE MAX. 

Other than that, I'm happy with my workout today. I love doing legs and butt because I feel like that's what I'm strongest in. It's difficult for me to get through the core workouts because I'm so weak in my core.

I've been wanting to run again but it's getting darker since it's fall and I'm not too sure how I'd run around the neighborhood without feeling scared. I'm thinking of running at school during one of my gaps? 

Also, Friday swim time, I really want to start that. After work I would just grab my stuff and start to swim. 

I'm proud of myself. I didn't think that I would get so into Blogilates all on my own. I feel a lot more determined and motivated because I can start doing workouts on my own without feeling the need to call someone to work out with me.

Good Job, Asia and let's keep at it! 

Halfsies

I didn't post that I exercised last Thursday, so I'll add that later.

BUT TODAY, I did one full video, the POP Cardio: Heart Throbber and two halves of two other videos...Yes, I did halfsies.

Cardio is not my thing. I can run...at my own pace...but it's difficult for me to do those intense burpees and junk. I'm working on it. My goal is to be able to do the 100 Burpee Challenge!

I also stopped my exercise short because I have a paper to turn in tomorrow and I have barely started. I know, school work before exercise again but at least I was able to fit a little bit of something in! :)

No more halfsies!

Legs Day

Today I came home and exercised right away! I'm very proud that I did that and didn't get lazy. Hah! But I did two and a half of Cassey's videos. I find that doing the videos under 10 minutes are easier but once I know that it's like 15 minutes or more, my mind can't stop thinking about how much longer I have and junk. :(

Hopefully, I'll just enjoy the pain of exercising and keep doing all the moves!

SOO, Now i'm going going to say how I felt while doing the videos.

Butt on Fire - I really liked this video. It was short and painful! There were different moves that made my butt hurt but I really really felt it. I had to go down on my elbow the second half of one of the moves because my other butt cheek was in too much pain to hold myself up! BUT, I kept going and I'm  happy I did.

Inner Thigh Clarity - I like this video but it's only one move and that isn't my favorite types of videos. I think that move is very effective, but I just like variety in my exercises. This did work my inner thigh, it might have worked my right leg more than my left because I didn't feel too much pain on my left leg.

HIITilates: My Thighs are Dying - I only did half of this video. I'm determined to finish the whole video without stopping but I wasn't able to do it this time. I really like this combo of HIITs and Pilates. I feel like i'm getting some cardio but not dying from cardio! A move here really killed me, it was when we do the butt squeezing but we had our leg straight up. I thought my thighs were strong from swimming, but man I was so wrong. Holding myself up like that is so difficult! I can do squats easily, so I hope I can improve in that one move.

Another day is done. Let's keep at it! :)
