This morning on my 3rd annual jog of the summer - this is only the 3rd because it has been raining here for what seems like forever and being a fair-weather jogger, I'm not quite committed enough to jog in the rain - I really enjoyed all of the greenery that has popped out of the landscape. My favorite part - hands down - were the bunches of poppies that I stumbled upon in the various neighborhoods I was passing through!
Every once in a while a song comes out that makes you want to move. I don't know if you've heard the newest Enrique Iglesias song --- but it does just that...
Enjoy!
Seriously --- I want to do aerobics to that song!! Although if nothing else it gets me bopping around in my seat... (Everyone at the coffee shop must think I am crazy!!) What song motivates you to be active?
Here are some things I found on Etsy that make me want to move!
This is the Summer of Fitness my friends! John and I are going to get back into shape this summer. How are we going to do this you ask? Why being at the gym at 6:30 in the morning, of course. I think you should just get in shape for showing up that early... but we've been doing cardio then focusing on a different muscle group each day. Totally John's idea. What sold me was the yoga classes that come along with the gym membership... :D
So - how am I managing to pass all this time on elipitical machines and treadmills? I have a couple of fantastic workout mixes - My newest is what I am sharing with you today!
1. Rooney - When Did Your Heart Go Missing - I always sing along to this one - so it gets a little awkward.
2. Ke$ha - Your Love is My Drug - This is my new favorite song, you can't possibly sit still to it!
3. Spice Girls - Spice Up Your Life - A classic. This song, in my mind, is a brilliant creation for step aerobics!
4. All American Rejects - Dirty Little Secret - Another on that you want to sing along to!
5. Shakira - Hips Don't Lie - Such an upbeat song - makes you want to move!
6. Britney Spears - Stronger - Quite the motivational ditty - good for the end of the workout! The dance in the video looks like a workout itself!
7. Fergie - Fegalicious - Pretty much for the line about being "up in the gym working on her fitness..."
8. Rob Thomas - How Far We've Come - I always make this the last song, mostly because it talks about accomplishments!
9. J. Sean ft. Lil Wayne - Down - Well, if you're not moving enough this one will get you dancing!
10. Pussycat Dolls - When I Grow Up - I am a sucker for this song, love the fast pace!
