Fitness for the Work-Out Adverse

Just Call Me Healthy 

Currently eating my super delicious granola, yogurt, and blueberry trio. It's my go-to breakfast when I need something quick and/or on the lighter side. The yogurt is there, I promise. Check top rightish corner of the bowl. See? Healthy. 100%. No questions about it. 



Theme of the Day

My theme of the day is athletic superstar/beach bum (AKA a three-mile run meets an afternoon on the boat). This, along with my supercute workout outfits, inspired me to blog about the importance of fitness in your life.This chick knows what's up:



How to be an Athletic Superstar (like me)
I've spent my entire summer watching Netflix and sitting on a boat, which is fabulous, don't get me wrong, but I started seeing the effects, if you know what I mean. I decided that the best way to remedy this was to get in killer shape before heading back to school in the fall. The added bonus? I can say I work out, and that makes me someone that's athletic. So, here's my foolproof plan to working out if, like me, you're workout adverse and completely lost when it comes to getting fit. 

Step One: Download the Nike Training Club App 


This is seriously the best thing ever. I'm pretty much the laziest person out there, so without someone (or thing) telling me exactly how to work out, I'd never do it. The app is free, and comes with a variety of individual workouts, or you can...

Step Two: Create a Workout Plan

Hello, beginner mode. I chose "Get Lean" solely because it uses the least amount of equipment. Beginner mode is three workouts a week, plus two runs. This sounds like torture, I know. But one of the workouts is 15 minutes of yoga, and every girl knows that yoga is great for relaxation and artsy pics.


Also, the runs are shortish (3 miles usually) and in total, the plan takes up about 2 1/2 hours a week. That's only like, 4 episodes of Gossip Girl, and considering I watch about 10 episodes a night, I'm not having trouble fitting the workouts in. 

Step 3: Tell someone (everyone) you've started a workout plan

This is the most crucial step, people. You start telling the world you're going to begin a work out plan, and you can't back out without looking like a total NAF. Tell your closest friends, the boy you're into (he'll love it), your parents, your coworkers, the dog next door, anyone you can think of. Sure, it'll make you annoying, but you'll never be as annoying as a vegan crossfitter, so don't worry about it. I'm telling the entire internet, so now I'm chained to my plan. 

The best part about working out is the outfit, so throw on that lulu top and start sweating.
