My morning workout crashers 💪🖤 #hereforit
.
Too often, I hear of kids being used as excuses for parents who aren't taking time to focus on their physical AND mental health (they go hand in hand), and I truly don't understand it.
.
Having kids isn't an excuse to stop taking care if yourself; if anything, it's the opposite.
.
I'm not saying it's easy to find time for yourself, it's not. But its necessary 💯.
.
Wake up before they do and meditate, workout, go for a walk, read - do something you enjoy and start your day off with a happy soul. If they wake up during that time? Ask them if they want to join or if they'd like to do something by themselves while you finish. (Wild guess says they'll want to join 😉).
.
Ask for help if you need a break, even if it's just for an hour or two to go shopping, take a shower, drive around, sit in silence - we all need a break sometime. Ask. For. Help.
.
Put them to bed a little earlier and use the quiet time to wind down. Watch a show, read a book, call a friend, have a glass of wine, do some yoga, have a conversation with your significant other that doesn't get interrupted every 6 seconds.
.
Meal prep different kinds of foods. Some you like, some they like, some everyone likes - choose healthier options on purpose. Your kids become what you teach them, and you become how you treat yourself.
.
I know it doesn't always go as planned... in fact, things rarely go as planned - that's life.
.
But do your best to be your best both for yourself and for your kids - they deserve the best version of you, and so do you.
.
Having kids is a reason to START taking care of yourself, not a reason to stop 😌

Four reasons why you shouldn't hire a Personal Trainer:
.
1) Most of what we tell you can be found online nowadays.
2) There are YouTube videos that teach proper form.
3) There are free workouts posted every second on Instagram and YouTube.
4) Information about how to calculate and track your macros is readily available for free on multiple websites/apps.
.
Four reasons why you might want to hire a personal trainer:
.
1) Accountability. Knowing you have someone to check-in with regularly is often motivation enough.
2) An unbiased opinion. Asking friends/family/peers can involve a lot of sugar-coating - a trainer doesn't have that same obligation.
3) Help finding a program that works for YOU and your lifestyle
4) A clear path. Sifting through the information you hear from peers or read online can lead to confusion - a trainer will take that stress out of the equation.
.
With so much information available at your fingertips, it's hard to decipher what's factual versus propaganda. One person/website tells you the only way to lose weight is Keto, the next tells you the only way to get fit is by doing cardio, the next tells you you should try fasting, the next tells you you should try crossfit - it's frustrating, isn't it?
.
But it doesn't have to be.
.
Truth is, there isn't a one-size-fits-all. What works for your best friend, your sister, your neighbor - it might not work for you. In fact, it probably won't work for you.
.
The trick is finding some kind of activity you enjoy, some kind of nutrition plan that's doable (counting macros, keto, fasting, paleo, etc), and some kind of lifestyle that you can actually maintain.
.
Otherwise, what's the point?! 🧐
.
You don't need a trainer to find your balance... but we're here to help when you need it. That's the difference.
.
My goal for you and all of my clients is to get you to a spot where you don't "need" me anymore - you've found a routine that works for you that they can stick to.
.
I want what I teach you to become habit 💯 and so far, more times than not - it does.
.
I currently have *SEVEN* spots open for my online training program. DM me for info or click the link in my bio.

21 Minute Full Body EMOM Workout for a killer pump + sweat sesh 💯💦🔥
.
Fun fact, most of my workouts only take 30-40 minutes or less (no two hour gym sessions here! Ain't nobody got time for dat. AIN'T NOBODY). If you can't find an extra 30 minutes a day to work on yourself - rearrange your schedule, homie. You have the time, trust me.
.
Here's a killer full body workout that you can do from anywhere with a set of dumbbells 👌 [EMOM stands for every minute on the minute - start each move at the top of each minute, whatever time you have left in that minute is your best time]
.
*Repeat 3x*
▪️Push Jack's x30
▪️Sumo Deadlift x15
▪️Kettelbell Swings x25
▪️Alternating Front to Lateral Raises x20
▪️Plyo Planking Knee Taps x30
▪️RDL to Thruster x10 (take it slow and get your form down first ✔)
▪️Tuck Jump Burpees x10
▫️Chase wanted to learn how to do a burpee too ❤
.
Enjoy! #athomeworkout ... See MoreSee Less
