Day 2 of making the shift!

Now this is what I am talking about! Last night sleep pattern was sh***y beyond belief. I was anxious, waking up every hour on the hour and just uncomfortable. A part of this is probably due to my body adjusting back to the time change, the heat and poor ass air flow in my bedroom. BUT NOTHING WAS GONNA STOP MY WORKOUT!

5:30am hit and it was on– Strength 25, that is 25 minutes of heart pumping weights and body weight exercises. You think you can’t work up a sweat… a picture can prove that statement wrong AF

See– I wasn’t lying. Sweaty AF!

I feel like I was on fire! Obviously I needed to refuel with some Shakeology. I have been drinking this amazing Horchata Cafe Late, a recipe I got to sample at our #CoachSummit event in #NOLA this past weekend! Recipe below!

12 ounces Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk

1 Tsp Vanilla Extract 

1 Tsp Cinnamon

1 packet Vegan Cafe Late Shakeology

Mix in shaker cup and enjoy! 

Literally amazing! I make sure to fuel my body with the right foods and supplements that benefit both my Beachbody and CrossFit workouts.

Speaking of Supplements!

I tend to use quite a few so lets chat about what is on my docket these days:

The first thing you will see below is my Evogen Carnigen Fat Stack— I use this during fasted cardio sessions to help burn fat. This SHRED-Fast Stack is best used in a fasted-cardio state to accelrate fat loss by utilizing stored body fat for energy. Typically I use the  SHRED-Fast Stack with a H.I.I.T. training program, like Shift Shop.

Next you see my Shakeology, obviously I have talked endlessly about this amazing superfood protein shake. It is my go to for all my vitamins, minerals etc. It truly is the most amazing product.

Next are my BCAAs, which I use for recovery. BCAAs play a significant role in building and repairing muscle after a workout, and also act as a “signal” to your muscles that nutrients are available for increasing muscle mass. This is my favorite brand of BCAAs! The flavor is amaze!

As far as pre workout consist of, I have gone through a few different brands– I am currently cycling through Loco, Fitmiss and uplift– Loco literally makes me insane, great for AM workouts but at night I am on speed basically. Fitmiss is my go to, uplift is a close second for PM workouts. I have tried Beachbody energize but because it is so natural, it doesn’t have a big enough pump for me but is great for a beginner supplement user!

These supplements help get me through both my AM and PM workouts, especially when my #CrossFit WODs look like this:

After a long day of work and training you have to make sure you are fueling your body with appropriate macros, below is a sample of my meals for today! I will post a full meal plan of week 2 soon!

So Day 2 is in the books, and now it is time to tackle some homework before I am off to bed! Definitely feeling a little sore so hooking up my TENS unit to get some much needed muscle relief!

happy first day of September!!!

We all know that means pumpkin everything! Stay tuned for some fall recipe swaps 😉

Well to start off I apologize it’s been forever since I have wrote out a few lines but life has in a sense gotten away from me and not in a good way even though these past few days have been awesome since I have been with my fam!

On a progress note! I’m down 6.1 lbs. I haven’t weight in this week but I did take a progress photo for you!!

I’m still a work in progress and I probably always will be. I struggle and I fall, but all of that doesn’t define me. What defines me is how gracefully I rise as I get back up.

People will hurt you, they will break promises, they will change, and they will change again. Don’t let that bring you down. It only makes us stronger.

Enjoy this beautiful first day of September, as summer fades into fall…
