I am so excited to start sharing my weekly workouts with you all! These posts are all about the workouts that I did during the week. Everything fitness related will be found under the Fitness tab of my blog. I have so many other plans for fitness related content and I’m honestly so pumped for the new year! A little sneak peek of the plans I have are sharing different stretching protocols, exercises targeting specific muscles or conditions, such as poor posture, how-to’s on how to perform certain exercises safely and with proper form, modifications for different movements and workouts, how any type of physical activity and exercise can benefit your health, and so much more! I don’t know if you all know this, but I have a bachelor’s degree, and will soon officially have a master’s degree (exciting!), in kinesiology and really want to share my knowledge with everyone!
Since I’m out of town visiting family this week and next week, I’ll be sharing mainly bodyweight exercises and utilizing the equipment that I brought with me. I brought two kettlebells, a 15 lb. and 20 lb., a SKLZ medium mini resistance band, and a green resistance Theraband. When I get back home to San Antonio, I’ll begin to start sharing more of my gym workouts. I typically get my workouts in on the weekdays, so I’ll be sharing my workouts for Monday through Friday, but if I do end up getting in a workout during the weekend I will be sure to add it in. You can find a visual representation of how these movements look either on my IG stories or on my IG feed. I really hope you all enjoy this new content that I’m bringing to the blog in 2019! If there is anything specific that you all want to see, feel free to let me know!
