April Challenge

I know we're already a few days into April, but it's never to late to start something.


Lately, I've been feeling like my gym routine has been a little redundant. I do the same thing, every week. I go at the same times every day. I hate to admit it, but sometimes I don't even break a sweat. Guys. This is a problem. You're supposed to sweat at the gym. So for the month of April my challenge is this: do more today than I did yesterday. Plain and simple.


I'm going to stop doing the same thing week after week. Wednesday will no longer be "back day." It will be "do better than Tuesday day." I'm going to work on strength, conditioning, cardio, stretching, everything. What I do one day, I will do better the next.


The saying goes "If you want something you've never had, you've got to do something you've never done." So I'm going to do everything in my power to get what I want. I'm going to set goals, work on PRs, and essentially, kick some ass (figuratively, of course).


The motivation and idea for this challenge is from reading Heart Shaped Sweat. If you haven't read her blog, do it. Seriously, she is the best thing since sliced bread. I'm putting the Join the Team button on my side bar as a constant reminder for myself, and also to keep me accountable. So, wish me luck readers, I'll probably need it.


If this song doesn't get  you crunk then I don't think anything can.

 
Happy Friday! Linking up with the ever fabulous Whitney and Leslie today. TTFN

YALL GON MAKE ME LOSE MY MIND! haha. I just love this choice.

Funny story for you... I "thumbs uped" a DMX song on the Back That Azz Up station on Pandora and it seriously changed my station to be SO ANGRY! haha. I had to really re-train that beast to get it back on track. ;)

Woo hoo- you can do it! I am the laziest person ever, but I`ve recently started running with my girlfriends. Without their help, I would never ever go- but hopefully my motivation will increase soon ;)

i totally agree! if you're not challenged, you don't change. switching things up every so often is good for you and when you keep things fresh, you stay motivated.
